Oi orlando! ;)
Im from Portugal too, BP launched the BP Ultime 100 RON, ive read somewhere in this forum that it launched the same gas in the UK, so it should be exactly the same gas.
oh, btw, my car says 98 RON recommend in the tank valve too.
Hi,
When i drove with no one in the back seat its all ok, and even on bumpy roads theres no scraping or nothing, but if i take anyone in the back seat theres thre scraping... :cry:
And my 172 isnt even lowered! Its plain stock... :o
Anyone?!
Hi,
Just purchased a set of Turini 2120 Wheels from k-tec and installed them,i think the ET is 42 as stated in k-tecs site, and it should be ok on stock and lowered cars, but today i drove with my mom and my sister sitting in the back seat, and as we go trough some bumps on the road i could...
Hi,
Yes, you can. A friend of mine here in Portugal has fitted a 1.6 16v from a megane into his 1.2 16v clio mk2. If you want, i can pm you his e-mail so you can ask him questions.
Tony, i got that info from a mechanic from Renault Sport Portugal, it was the exhaust they used to race in "Trofeu Clio Galp Energia" here in Portugal, dont know if its orbisound or not.
Hi,
I think the "wheel thingy" i mentioned earlier its a pulley, if it is, then when it happened to me i was due to a track of the pulley that broke and the aux belt moved out of place, with luck it didnt got tangled with the cambelt!
Hi,
As you can see in the other post regarding the damned banging in 1st shift, my car is beeing serviced, and they are replacing the clutch as its kinda broken... It was exactly as you described... I dont know how to say in english the name of the part which is causing this issue... sorry...
Hi,
I had the same squeeking sound in my car... It came from the right side of the engine bay, and it was the wheel thingy (sorry, cant remeber how its called in english...) where one of the belts is, it was bad as it could have slipped the belt and it could tangle with the cambelt...
Hi,
Im from Portugal, and my car has gone 3 times to the dealer to try and fix this issue, the owner of the dealer told me that renault doesnt solve this under warranty, but there is a way to solve this. He also told me that he has tried over and over with Renault Portugal to fix 172 in...
"I read that disconnecting the rear wheelsped sensors will maintain the EBD function. Can anyone confirm...?"
I said that exactly in a few replys back. Cant confirm it, but the information came from SODEMO. Yeap, there is an EBD on both Clio 172. The CUP AFAIK doesnt have EBD, and i think in...

Thanks for all the replies, so, what I have gathered, is that, EBD is something to do with the ECU that controls the ABS. (lots of abbreviations there!) Is the only way to turn this off - replacing the factory ECU (this could be an...

run Dot 4, no need for anything else, i run Castrol Response synthetic Super Dot 4.....better than any Dot 5 or 5.1 ive used. Just pull the fuse, it wont affect braking.....apart from a lack of ABS. and EBD, forget about it.........have one...
Hi,
Just wanted to share this with you guys...
Im installing an IK in my 172 MK2, and ive managed to get my hands on an airbox from a MK1 Race car from Portugal. As you can see it has a hand-made carbon "mouth" of 70mm, and 90mm on the other side. Here are the pics...
Check http://www.technomap.frwww.technomap.fr :D
Theyve got a Clio 172 MK1 with 220 hp... Ill try and get a video for you to see... Oh, and its got TBs... :)
Hi,
I have a 172 mk2, i do want to change the wheels coz i dont like the standard ones... If i bought them from speedline can i ask for the same offset as the Cup? Is there any drawback on doing this?
Hmm... Youve got a point, ill probably go with the Viper. Im from Portugal, and it seems its dificult to find a dealer who supplys the Viper... If i cant find it here, ill probably order it from k-tec or demon-tweeks.
Thx for a fast answer.
Just one question, with the BMC-CDA i dont have many options to catch fresh air... I can use the original place, (near the wheel) or i can remove the fog lights and use something to direct air directly to the BMC, with the VIPER i think its the same thing, but with de...
Hi,
I would like to know which of these induction kits will suit best the ClioSport Mk2, im looking mainly to power gains, not how they look or sound...
Thx in advance.
