Think my gearbox is buggered. Was driving on motorway during the night when I saw a crashed car on the side of the road. Smoke piling out the bonnet and driver unconscious. As I was looking to see if I could see anyone in the car I didn't notice all the debris in the middle of the road and I...

Thought id post some pics of the flamer. Since last time its had Eibach Sportlines fitted. A Ktec Stealth exhaust and a 200 RS badge. Had it up the 1/4 mile at crail and on the rollers a few weeks ago. Fastest 1/4 mile was 15.6 first time ever I might add. 172.4bhp on the rollers which I was...

With the weather being so awesome the past week I decided to give my flamer a good clean. First was a wash. 2 bucket method with some AG bodywork shampoo. Then to the wheels. AG custom wheel cleaner and AG tyre dressing. Some carplan back to black on the window rubbers and plastic trims, and Mr...

Spotted, what I think was a 172 cup in Anstruther around 6pm and a silver ph1 v6 on the Forth Bridge about 8ish.

Evening folks. I have a 2002 ph2 172. Had it in for both belt kits, dephaser and waterpump replacement last week at a very well recomended specialist. On my way home from the garage i noticed the exhaust seemed louder. Alot louder when you put the foot down. I got it home. Jacked it up and had a...

At first I thought the 2 small black bits iv circled below had maybe been sprayed over at some point and some of the paint had started to flake off showing the black bits again. Well now iv noticed the black bit is actually on top of the paint and its broken revealing the red paint underneath...

In the last couple of weeks iv done a couple of things to the flamer. First off, a set of 182 side repeaters so no more ginger sideys! Before IMG_7271 (2) by thepike1984, on Flickr After DSC_0398 by thepike1984, on Flickr DSC_0393 by thepike1984, on Flickr Next was a Fabia splitter Before...

After reading every thread I can possibly find on this subject im still really confused. My inner cv boot has split on my ph2 172 (passenger side). I was led to believe that I need to replace the whole driveshaft so I phoned Renault to double check. Guy on the phone says they do a replacement...

Hey folks. Thought it was time I shared some pics of my new car. Iv had 4 clios but this is my first sport and im loving it. I bought it for £1700 at the start of December. It had 69k miles on the clock and completely standard apart from a Stainless backbox. Iv had no problems with it what so...

Hey folks, I'm looking to buy a 172 and was looking at one today. I noticed the rubber bonding of the windscreen had popped out ever so slightly at the top corner of the passenger side. Is this a common fault? The passenger door felt very heavy while opening and closing aswell which makes me...
