Yeah, i mean that the baroscope will be used for seeing the piston and monitor the cleaning process. I thought about WD40 but because its water based I’m not sure how it will deal with carbon deposits and burned oil, and lots of em. If I’ll use it too, should i combine (separately) all of them...

My Clio 172 ph2 have a issue which pretty much annoy me, it can make a liter of oil disappear in the mirror in 500 km fast road trip ( i noticed it mostly happens when engine high revs with closed throttle i.e vacuum). but can go 1000 calm km and take only 100 cc of oil or less. some details...

I have P0433 code Evap. system purge control valve. If i put a resistor can i just block the line that comes from the head? I have some hard starts and gentle idles, i want to solve it and using a resistor for the check engine light, is that possible by doing just what i mentioned?

Hey there, I just replaced my clio 172 ph2 tie rods and end tie rods (balljoints) and i want to share with you the process.( the parts are Febi parts) Its actually pretty simple to do. Just need to correct tools. 1. Popping the wheel out. 2. Remove to lower engine plastic cover (just for...

Thanks Mick, i am now with the +10 mm on the back and thats how it looks: I have edited the photo just so you can see the ride height (i know its looks bad) Btw, i drove with the original set up and on hard cornering the wheel touching the arch.. So i screw out the front damper on the front...

I just installed a set of BC Racing coilovers for my 172. I replaced them together with new front and rear top mounts (rear are the ones that came with the BCs). I installed the set with its original setup for height, from factory. But i get the impression the rear ride height is lower then it...

I can... But first i want to know if i can upgrade my suspension all round. If it just hubs and drive shafts it supposed to cost something like 400£ and maybe it will worth it. The 182 cup suspension supposed to be better then non cup suspension, isn't it?

Hey there, Just received coilover for 182 cup instead of 172 as i was supposed to. Just wondering what do i need to replace in order to bolt on the coil overs? I think I'm gonna need hubs and driveshafts. Do i need lower wishbones also? Anything else like brakes and steering need to be replace...

There are two questions : 1. How to locate the exact location? 2. How to fix it? Replace wires?

What can affect the signal?

great great work ! did u needed a special tool for the dephaser ? did you use some wax to the headlights after polish ?

hey there, link to the video just noticed a new small noise at my engine. i believe it starts like a few minutes before i took the video and i never noticed it before and I'm pretty aware to those kind of things so it can't be something that happened long ago. anyway, on the video the engine is...
