172

I've just had my 172 wheels fully re furbished and there mint, they look really well on the car with standard springs on the front as the 30mm were too scatty and 30mm lowered rear. I ve bought a set of 182 wheels with the idea of doing track days but with spending quite a lot cosmetically and a...

I noticed that the floor in my Clio is very warm, at the height of the catalyst. Seats rails are also very warm. I have stock car, and stock exhaust with cat. It dosen't depend on temperature outside, and how hard i revving. It its normal? I don't think so? The cat. cover is in place, and there...

Reg SC02 FDK about 7:40am was having a spirited drive came off mini roundabout then down towards Edlington lol.

Hey there, I have decided to take my clio of the road and renew some things. It has done 98,000 miles drinks plenty of oil and a few month back it blew the spark plug out the head. I managed to re-thread the head and fit a new spark plug but have decided it's time to spend some money on her. I...

hi all I'm after the alloy brackets for the brembo calipers to fit 172/182 does anyone know where I can get them from

Hi, I know this has been talked to death, but I really am struggling to believe that the only option I have to get a new driveshaft for my 172 cup Is through Renault - at £260. Its only the outer CV joint that has gone - which are easy to take off and replace, but they don't seem to be listed...

stuck a deposit down on this today, pick it up after the weekend once a wee ding has been taken out the door, a scuff on the rear bumper and a tear in the recaro repaired (not quite sure how this is going to be done/look!!) came from a main dealer, belts done late 2013 :)

Hi Guys, I've got two heads here, a Ph1 172 with the big exhaust ports and a head from a 172 cup with the smaller ports. Is there any real advantage in torque or HP to using the Ph1 cylinder head? Engine will be fitted with Cat Cam 421's and Jenvey ITB's. Regards, Mike

Hi folks, I know this has been done before however I would like to see if there is anymore up to date info / opinions. I've had my Cup since June, it's my first Clio and I am having a blast in it. It's 99% a road car although I am planning to track it a couple of times next year and it doesn't...

Hello I have 172 ph2 year 2002. I need to change rear ABS sensor, I can not find it cheaper than 75GBP orginal renault part in Poland which is IMO sick price for ABS sensor. part number 6 000 073 527, are that any cheaper than OEM replacement on UK market ? Regards Piotr

Evening people, I've only had the 172 for 6 months. The purpose is to soak up most of my miles and something I'm not too worried to leave parked up - I have a Megane 275 Trophy which spends the vast majority of the time locked away in the garage. I've done about 7.5k miles in the Clio, which...

As above I did say hello mate but only saw the car at the last minute

http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/141783132925 The guy seems like a bit of a part time salesman. Anyone been to see it? Seems well priced to me from the description and photos. Found the guy via Facebook using his number. Not sure what I think!

It's a 53 2004 reg. I think it's iceberg silver.

Right boys and girls, I think I know the answer to this but wanted to confirm before going ahead and doing anything. Filled my Cup up earlier on up to the brim- took 44litres. Took the car to Benfield Road Renault for my new gearbox seal and then on to Metrocentre. As I was driving, there was a...

Hi Whats the bolt spacing on 172 cup in mm? Is it same as the non FF 182- 60mm? Thanks in advance

And have listed ever since Requires a little work but that doesn't bother me. Plans are to get back running and then turn it into...

Is it possible to add in traction control to an early 172 with no traction control? it has all the cables that are needed, I could acquire switches. could you just swap out the ABS computer with one from a 182 or 172 with ESP?

Hi guys I'm new to Clio Sport and thought I would introduce myself and then ask you guys for some help. My name is Mike I'm 28 and I live in Malvern Worcestershire. I recently sold my Subaru Impreza WRX to part fund a new project I have always wanted to do (clio172 engine in a Mk1) but never...

I've seen this slammed clio parked at the car park behind Fitzroy and I'm guessing the owner is a student that's just moved in there too? "

I think I've spotted the same car a few times now on the a381. Today was between Shalford and Guildford, traveling towards Guildford. Anyone's here?

Spotted a flame red ph2 172 heading towards Princess Street on South Clerk Street in Edinburgh at 5:25pm. Reg was NG03 YYT.

What's the current average prices for major service including plugs and cam belt replacement including water pump and dephaser pulley? Car 172 Cup And where did you get it done? Cheers

Spotted a blue 172 or 182 with a black (or carbon) bonnet on the back of a flatbed/trailer yesterday heading north on the M90 between Dundee and Forfar around 5:10pm. Possibly heading home from Knockhill
