I also have the famous 'knocking'. Removed the battery today and... the mount seems to be ok.. or no?

In all online catalogues, the pro-kit part number seems to be the same for all clio B variations. Am I right?? Is this the correct kit for the 172 mk2? Model Year Pro-Kit Clio B* 1.4, 1.6, 2.0, 1.5 dCi, 1.9 D, 1.9 dTi* 09.98 -* E10-75-001-02-22*

in 16" :-( any comment???

yep... 70mm both ends

yep, you're right!! oil temp sender... :) What is a "sandwich plate"??

Does someone know which is the size of the oil drain plug in the F4R engine?? M16 X 1.5?? M14 X 1.5??

Can you post a picture of your engine pls??

I have the same sounds in hard accelerating in 1st and 2nd gear, and I'm almost sure the problem is the engine mount... Don't think is related to the coilovers

lol I thought I didn't buy it with that option???

the door panel in a 172 mk2??? Something rattles inside the door!!!

I have done some tests in a r/r with the original air filter v/s BMC CDA induction kit in my 172 mk2. Based on the results I obteined, I think is almost imposible to gain 9 bhp with just changing the air filter. anyway, you are very lucky!!!

Is it any way to prevent this??

Is the same than ELF Excellium LDX 5W40??? (LDX)

172 hp (engine) - mechanical losses = 147.3 hp (wheels) ~13% losses

BTW, the absolute value obtained (147.3 whp, 100% standard) is what I should expect for a 172 mk2???

^^I agree, they are all the same!

^^ The test was standard airbox v/s BMC CDA. My Conclusion: I can expect at most ~2 whp for just using the BMC filter. That's all!

My 2003 172 put 147.3 hp at the wheels. no mods. regards

The idea was to test the "best case". I'm sure, that with the filter "properly" fitted and the bonnet down, results would be worst. Anyway, the 2 blowers will never simulate the actual driving conditions. Inductions kits and performance filters brings lot of Psychological horse power... :-(

Yep, there were 2 large blowers at the front of the car (actually in front of the filter). For sure Difference in sound?? a lot, very nice roar with the BMC filter. Do someone have a conclusion from the A/F graph?? I think it's too lean below 4000rpm. regards,

OK, yesterday I tested my car in a rolling road. I wanted to test the true hp gain (hopefully) with the BMC CDA filter. In the graph below, the blue line corresponds to the car in it standard condition with the original airbox. Red line represents the car with the BMC filter fitted. Two large...

Yep... 172s in Chile came with 15". Not sure if it's a matter of road quality. Lots of OE lower profiles around here... as the 206 RC (205/40R17)

Could someone confirm if the part number is 7700412498???? Is this window the same than the others 3-door clios???

I went to a mate weeding party last saturday and when I returned to my 172, the right rear window was smashed...:( Do someone know the Reno part number of this window?? Its a MK2 172. Thanx

are you using 205/45R16???

Yeah!! my next acquisition will be Eibach springs...:)

Ive just fitted my new BBS RK wheels, they are 16s with michelin pilot exalto (195/45R16). http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y96/ipereira/clio_bbs1.jpg

You dont need to remove the whole dash to remove the tweeters. Press down, while you turn anti clockwise CAREFULLY and you will take out the "tweeter cover".

Ill have a (first) trackday in my 172 next saturday. Theorically Ill have best times with the ESP switched off than on???? Its really more safe with the ESP on in a track?? Recommendations pls...
