I thought they were all the same (that being the reason they usually don't last as long on 1*2's). I'm sure that's what my mechanic told me (he's an ex-renualt main dealer mechanic)

LMAO

Update: all working again now, plunger needed to go in one more click. What a strange quirk that the little switch has such an effect on other things.

mine is doing this, replaced the brake switch this morning and still the same problem, no Cruise control but speed limiter works???

Phase 1 RSi? http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?226590-Pic-Request-PH1-172-Interiors

;) how about mine? Well looked after, nothing needs doing... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?642161-2004-RenaultSport-Clio-172-in-Iceburg-Silver-%A32800

thats bad, I mean good, I mean, erm cool :)

to be honest I haven't actually taken it up to the limiter yet (apart from on the test drive lol), but I have been very spoiled as I had Civic Type R before this and compared to those any rev limiter is too low, thanks for the comments I do like my cars to look standard but have a few little...

aaah, I was just ordering my new rear badge (aka having my eyes ripped out)

sure I spotted this at Cannon Park today?

About time I put a thread up about this so here goes... I was looking for a nice standard Clio 172 but all the one's I viewed and drove were dogs and overpriced so I eventually settled on a modified one and decided to 'unmodify' it slightly so it was the best of both worlds (please don't ban me...

Re: ...Just bought BG182 FF Has a Cliosport Tax Disc Holder... lol, I like the way you've blocked out the number plate but put it in the title of the thread. Wish I'd bought a black one :(

here you go, a bit crude but does the job (even did a 5 stud conversion and gave you brembos all round)...

Well, I've just replaced the little round tw@t and taken it out for a quick back lane blast, and... no vibrations!!1 Woooooooooop, I love my Clio again :)

:s we shall see, going to have a go tomorrow...

I'm hoping it's just the upper gearbox mount tbh (as it's only about £6) but just thinking ahead. If the dogbone mount was anything to go by they'll all be in need of replacement!

After replacing my dogbone mount (old one was completely shot after removal and inspection) this morning to try and eliminate the vibration coming through the car on hard acceleration, I still have a certain amount of vibration coming through the car (and a little knock if you let off and plant...

Pro Race 1.2's? Hmm wonder who might be selling some of those? ;)

I might pop down, used to hang out there years ago, might be fun to see how its 'evolved'

lovely looking car, nice work

Tried all that (and more) Believe me, if I had hit it any harder it would have taken the manifold off!! I was amazed how much crowbar/hammer action it took and wouldn't shift. Despite lying underneath I could get quite a good swing at it but still no luck. Still driving round with the nut off...

very nice indeed, always loved the RS Audi's

I've given up and booked it into Maltech in Stockton, let him have the headache lol (I have pre warned him of the fun he will have)

rub it in why don't ya, lol

Yeah I was thinking dremmel too or a long thin saw of some type, I'm actually putting the CAT back in as I want it back to standard.

As we all know the two 10mm bolts that join the cat to the manifold are are a right pig, but I got mine up on the ramps today to swap the cat out and and ended up not changing it due to 1 of the bolts having been overtightened in the past meaning that the washer that holds the spring in place...

I'll be there, can't fookin wait :o)
