    servicing a cup

    Tunbridge Wells = £260, and they advertise this as the rate for all clios, luckily my g.friends brother works for Renault so got £100 knocked off otherwise would be jumping up and down. Plus he getss the discount on car sales so maybe new 182 at end of year (he advised against new megane)

    heat with air-con only !!

    any ideas anyone, my 172 has decided not to issue any warm air unless the air conditioning and auto is on or its set to maxi without it, for example set to 21 without auto on and it blows cold air!? Perfect time of year for it to happen!! Also when on auto the air con is on permanently and the...

    is my alternator dead

    yeah what flipper says is correct but dont forget it could just be the wiring also.

    is my alternator dead

    or the wiring returning the charge from alternator to battery has shorted/burnt out (or a connector some where has broken down) (took me 3 alternators,a battery and a starter motor to find that!), get a meter and beep them out (continuity check)- car electrics are the best fun in the world :(

    Is It Worth It!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ive owned my 03 172 for about 4 months now - has just over 4k on the clock and I still think its great, Ive had no real trouble from it and drive 40 miles to work and back - mixture of motorway and stop start A roads. Plus having the climate control over the last few monthsa has been a god send.

    starter motor or igntion barral

    Im guessing thered be no clicks, check all the wiring to and from as well though - with my old 5gtt I replaced 3 alternators and a starter motor only to find that the whole problem was being caused by a corroded wire (similar symptoms- hit and miss starting)
