Thanks for the recommendation, I'll give them a call and see what they say.

My daughter has water damaged (read monster energy drink)her 2019 MacBook Pro, the screen is damaged along with the keyboard. Has anybody got any recent repair shop recommendations that we can send or drop off the laptop for assessment? South Wales based but happy to post to a decent place. TIA...

To close the thread. It was the internal wiring to the xenon bulb, a second hand headlight unit was purchased from a member on here. Everything now works as it should.

Yes I did check the fuse after moving things around and all good. Thinking about it I should have plugged the working OS unit into the NS wiring whilst it was all stripped down, that would of ruled out or in the internal wiring of the headlight and just left the loom.

Yes they do. The loom or the internal wiring on the headlight are the only things left?

Recently I'd noticed that the NS front xenon bulb on my 172 was not illuminated, I purchased a pair of bulbs and installed them yesterday, tested they were working and put the bumper back on. After I'd finished clearing up I switched the lights on and again the NS bulb was not working! This...

Not all of them, mine (a 2004 172) is located externally.

If it has one it's underneath the car rear offside. I've attached a photo to assist.

Iceberg 172 04 reg 2 owners 103k Cooksport springs & cup dampers. Rainsport 3 Tyres. Belts and dephaser changed in May '14 by BTM I've attached a list of everything changed/ maintenance during my ownership. Thinking of selling and would like a realistic idea of value.

That's not the correct type for a 182, the ARB mounting is incorrect. Here is a picture of the correct n/s bottom arm for comparison.

Those are ok, I paid £9.60 each tho' from Renault Wolverhampton

Today, changed engine oil, filter, gearbox oil and fuel filter. In the last month I've renewed upper engine mount, upper gearbox mount, rear discs, pads, spark plugs, top mounts, cup dampers with cooksport springs and a full set of Rainsport 3. Fingers crossed that's it for a while.

Yes, mine does it. Don't know why, cable connection at pedal, the pivot or perhaps it's a geographical thing?

Yes you can upgrade standard 172 dampers with 172 cup dampers without issue, I've done it myself as have lots of others. The Fatty is confusing 172s with standard 182 and cup 182s.

You'll have to remove the wipers and scuttle panel to gain access to the washer bottle and pumps, it could be that the pump is at fault or the outlets from the pump have been linked together via a tee piece.

That's good news, a nice simple solution. Can't be arsed to see if it fixes mine tho'!

Fingers crossed then, I hope it solves the problem. Let us know.

Yes, I'd be interested to know if that cures it. My headlight pump works correctly too and when I swapped pumps over the headlights washers operated correctly but the screen washers were random, my money is on an electrical fault with the UCH switching the polarity of the feed correctly.

I honestly don't know, genuine pumps are expensive tho'.

The valve (cylindrical rubber thing) is contained within the pump body. There's a photo of a pump disassembled in the guide section somewhere.

Amos91 Yes I fixed it (my sanity anyway) by linking the outlets of the pump to the pipe feeding the front washer jets, so I always wash the front screen regardless of which way the impeller spins. I never got to the bottom of whether it was a pump, stalk or UCH problem. Life is definitely too short!

barnesautos thanks for the input

Mar172 Thanks for the info

Another view of filter

Not all of them it seems, that is a photo of my Ph2 172

Thanks, thats on a Ph2 registered 1st March 2004. Do you know the service interval?

Ph 1 external then? Does it look like this?

Is that the same for both Ph1 and Ph2?

As per title, where is it and what's the interval for renewing? Ph1 172 where is the fuel filter on those models? Thanks.
