The car has a rough idle and has had difficulty in starting on a few occassions. At the moment if i start the car press the clutch and rev to about 3k it sounds spluttery through the exhaust. Also the car has stalled whilst braking for traffic which is my biggest worry as the car is still moving...

I have a couple of questions which I am hoping people may be able to help with, the car is a 172 PH2; 1. Is there a second TDC sensor other than the one on the crank? If there is; is it the same part no. as the other one? What is it generally referred as? Is it as tempormental as the crank...

I am based in Farnham Royal, Buckinghamshire. The weird thing is the main problem of the car stalling whilst being driven doesn't happen everytime the car is driven, but the last time it happened it was on an A road whilst braking for traffic ahead then you lose some power to the braking and...

Hi Guys, My car has been cutting out upon slowing down and also has had some intermittent starting issues. I can see a million and one posts regarding this subject but what is not always clear is what the successful solution if any was, or what helped to diagnose the bad part. My car is a...

It does get past the black screen and loads up, so I will change the resolution to a lower setting but presumably that card should be able to take that setting shouln't it?

Hi guys, just wondered whether anyone could shed any light on a problem that my PCs having. My pc had a problem where is was running at a crawl, I tested memory, took out graphics card and cleaned fans and reset bios by removing battery etc. This fixed the problem and the machine started to...

Does WMP10 rip to MP3, I thought it only ripped to WMA format.

Is there an option in itunes to turn off convertion to AAC format. It automatically converts to AAC when you put the files in the library on my copy.

Hi guys, was hoping someone could help if possible. Whats the best FREE convertor to download that converts CDs to MP3. I was hoping for something that was easy to use and allowed you to edit mp3 tags for 'Artist', 'Album', 'Genre' etc. Hope this makes sense. Thanks Adam

Farnham Royal. Stickerless Silver 172

R55 CUP to look like RS S CUP for RenaultSport CUP still only £250

I saw a guy in a blue cup, (or could have been 182) on weekend in burnham. He looked about 12. Sorry if you are on this forum, but you did look quite young.

go ibiza. 172s are great but tend to get bored of them quite quickly unless you live near twisties (burnham beeches) like me. Turbo has a good appeal to it.

nah not tire wear. Have fairly new rainsports on there. Took hands off wheel at 40 and braked hard to see if she stayed straight, and she did stay fairly straight.

cheers for help mate :D

Am just finding that if i brake fairly hard i can feel abs is kicking in abit. Got paranoia that the abs is kicking cos the front drivers wheel is skidding abit. Maybe its just my imagination. How long do the front pads normally last anyway, roughly.

Last few days noticed that my abs seems to be kicking in quite a bit. When i brake and go over bumps i can feel the abs through the brake pedal. Dont think it ever kicked in as much as it is recently. What could it be. Would ABS kick in more if brake pads needed changing. Does it sound...

Lots of things, but might have to sell the house to afford them. Gonna get some eibachs first though. Its RS owners event at santa pod this weekend. Wanna come race some fords.

For the 172, the air intake pipe what is the diameter at the throttle bodie and also what is the diameter where it joins the air box. Is the bend in the pipe 90 degrees or is it less. Cheers

check that the netting for the boot is there, this is useful. Check that seats dont move sideways on mounts at all. Check auotchanger is there if supposed to be. Check lights, wipers, air con etc all work and look fine. Check that exhaust isnt lined up crooked. Bring a portable...

impreza! END OF

Punto GT. Strip it and go.

The williams has become a classic favourite because it had something special for its time (tribute car). It was faster and better than most hot hatches of its time. It was a car that stood out for its era. The cup dosent have the same presence. Other hot hatches have equal or greater abilities...

when you start the car the light is OFF, but traction control is ON. You will notice the light flashing every time traction control kicks in. If you press the button the light will turn ON and traction control will be OFF. Traction control is enabled every time the car is started, so the...

thought it was only the 172 that has thicker glass (well that and anti glair). Could be wrong but i also thought the cup has the same glass as all the other clios, with the exception of the 172. When it says the cup has thinner glass, it is being compared to the 172, not the whole clio range.

When you buy from Trade Sales you will be getting an import car (normally Belgium). They dont have the alarm but they have the immobiliser, but it isnt rate CAT3 cos it wasnt fitted by renault in UK. The cars come with half a years trade sales warrenty NOT a renault warrenty. Then you can buy a...

Santas vehicles dont need insurance. Ring your insurance and say santa gave you a car how much is insurance, they will say its free. Also santa is being very generous this year, not only is he giving you all a new car but you get a fully trained reindeer. Your cars will be waiting for you at...

valver is cheaper to insure than 172. 172 is faster than valver in standard form. 172 has more luxuries and more modern (not to everyones taste). There is quite abit of difference in car price. You will get a good valver cheap and an awefull 172 cheap. 6.5K for a 172 most probally means it is...

no sorry, no second hand cars. All choices have to be new and shiny. My choices are Ford Focus RS (dont ask, theres just something about them) For a second choice i was stuck bet ween RX8 and EVO (speed or looks)
