I have a mk1 172 here and did have the same kinda problem.
had my wheel bearing replaced and ever since then it was making the noise. Took it back to the garage and they couldnt work out what it was. When I had the wheel off my acr and turned the disk it would get really stiff at one point...
I got caught up in this when going to work on the tuesday. the accident that caused the tail back was horiffic tho.
Some poor soul had an accident, the driver managed to get out but the passenger was stuck. His legs were trapped and the car caught fire :(
1- Red mk1 172 on the clapham roundabout just north of Bedford next to Sainsburys.
2- Clio Trophy at the Renault garage in Clapham. First time I had seen one so had a butchers at your car.

Ever since I have had my car they are the only people to have worked on it.

Thatpics looks good, nice job...
have called 6 different dealers and all say 62 quid. i dont know what to do.
Maybe the pricing has changed since you lot who have them got it.
If anyone finds out a dealer near them, who is doing it for that price i would happily pay them to buy it and post it to me with a little on top for...
ok, ill try a few more dealers but so far letchworth and milton keynes both said 60 odd quid.
What dealers have people got these from for the lower price?
I can then use this to tell the next dealer i ring up.
every dealer i ring quoets the above part as 65 pounds and no one seems to know the part code for the tray without the switches. Please help i am really getting frustrated. :(
I must live in a lovely place of teh world!!!
I bought my insurance when i was 21 and it cost me £1400 , thats with 1 years NCB, accident in 2001!! no points , but that is still a very cheap price. so it must be where i live!
Soo sorry to hear that m8!
Thank god you are ok.
I always put my seatbelt on, may seem weird but the thing that makes me put it on is the light it in the centre console, it would drive me crazy seeing that out of the corner of my eye!
Basicly i am after a sports exhaust (straight thru + decat + tail) where i can take out the de-cat and replace it with the orgininal cat. So centre piece and decat needs same connection as standard de-cat.Get wot i mean!
I have a mk1 172 (2000) and any suggestions will be welcome.
I wanna see what it looks like on a mk1 172 (oval tail) is it big?? I dont like big, i like subtle, i dont car if you can hardly see it, me likes performance and a bit of noise, know what i mean??
Does any1 here have a devil exhaust??
If so, What d you think of it??
Have you got the de-cat??
6x4 tailpipe??
Any other info??
Any pics would be great!!
Nope, cant get the 63.5 tail exhaust from supersprint. No-one has them, discontinued!! ffs!!
Might look into the devil exhausts, see how they are like!! Has anyone got one??? Anyone??
