Hi, thanks for your response. When I bought the car the reports\renault info etc... said that due to it being the Cup version and having no ABS the pads were a certain kind of Race pad to compensate for the lack of ABS so I am assuming they are different pads to the 172 Sport. I am going...

Need new front Brake Pads for Clio 172 Cup and would like to do some shopping around, can any one advise what the standard Cup pads are? Cheers Chris

Did you make any decisions on modifying your Cup. By the way great decision hey! I replaced my Impreza Turbo 2000 7 months ago for the 172 Cup and defo no regrets. Halved insurance costs, no more servicing every 7.5k and no more being in Panic mode as the petrol needle rapidly falls over very...

Are Renault the only place I can go too?

Anyone know how much a spare key for a Cup is likely to set me back? Would I have to go to Renault or are there other companies who would be more competitive? Rgds, Chris

My cup was only 1 month old and having noticed the knocking in first and second I took it to my local dealer who said that a the brakes were missing a spring and connecting rod to the compensator valve and that the car was dangerous to drive. This was 5 weeks ago and Im still waiting for a...

Does the knocking only occur in low speeds, press the accelerator down and lift off and then you can hear the knock. Also intermittently happens when changing gear again 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd especially? Ive only had mine a month and Ive just taken mine in to the garage with the aboce...

Youre right I can recreate the problem each time beween 1 and about 20 miles an hour in first or second and sometimes third if doing a low enough speed. Speed up a little and lift off and then clunk. Its really annoying as I spend 30 minutes of my journey to work every morning on the M56 doing...

Cars only done 800 miles and granted Ive only heard the knocking start over the last few days so probably only covered 100 miles at the absolute most. Im 99.9% certain I have not hit anything under the car. Any other ideas anyone?

Are you considering taking your in for them to have a look at? Anyone else had this and been advised what it is? Cheers Chris

Knocking seems to be coming from the back of the Cup. You can recreate the sound each time when driving along really steady say in third and you just tap the accelerator and release and its as if something at the back of the car has gone forward with the momentum and then because the car has...

I know the subject of which exhaust has been discussed many times but I am specifically after just a backbox for my cup which is single round and at least 3.5 inches in diameter. I know Magnex seems to be a favourite for people and I would like a Magnex but although they do the exhaust style I...

Do I need to to book car in for the first 1000 mile check as I have done for my previous motors or is first service just the 12k mentioned in the manual, doesnt mention anything about the 1k check? Also anyone else noticed condensation in the front headlights on the Cup? This cant be normal...

Tank came full for which there is half left not sure if this was 98 or 95? Can I refill now even if it is possibly 95 or can I just top up now with 98. It may already be 98. And thanks for everyones input.

Just taken delivery of my Cup and was wondering where the hell do I get 98 RON fuel for, just been to Tesco and its all 95. Whats the difference? Can I get away with 95 for a tank or does it have to be 98? Why 98 I thought that was for Motorbikes, I did know some scooby drivers ran theres on...
