exhaust

the exhaust on my 2003 172 cup is shot! What is best replacement? I want standard look, not too loud!!! Bedford area & would consider a 2nd hand one if anyone is selling?? Cheers

Dudes and dudettes, Does anyone have any handy hints for exhaust alignment? Mine rubs on the rear surrounds when it gets hots and it starting to melt them, plus it sounds horrendous. Exhaust is a ktec/janspeed ultrasport and i have the prima mounts so there is no room for movement with them...

Are pattern part exhausts (mild steel to OE spec) available for the 197 ? Or is it stainless system eg milltek , scorpion as the only aftermarket options ? The internet doesn't reveal much, I suspect it's because they werent built in massive numbers the number of pattern parts isnt vast...

Guys i want a 197 style exhaust on my 172 cup, but with bigger tail pipes, are there any traders on here in the north west area of england who can help me?. Thanks.

Hi all, I know there are tones and tones of 'What exhaust should I buy' threads. I have looked at most, trust me! There is one aspect that I haven't been able to find many reviews on though. How well do they fit. I have read the RS192 doesn't fit too well with the mounts, so have struck that...

I have had a power flow exhaust on my clio for a few years and today the back hanger came off the back box creating a massive hole, I intend to get a new car in the coming months but I'm trying to find a cheap performance exhaust for the time being just to make it sound good still! I've looked...

Am going to be fitting my new back box soon and need to cut my bumper to get the beast to fit, not sure if the standard trim will do as the tail pipes radius is around 4 inches. Can anyone tell me if the standard trim will do? URL...

i have got a head that has misplaced all of its exhaust studs i need some more does anyone know what size they are and where would i be best looking to find some i dont fancy paying main dealer prices of about £11 per stud x 9 of

Will it be a straight swap to put a 172 exhaust to my mk2 1.2 16v ?

I was driving home from work today and my exhaust seemed really loud when accelerating. I've just had a look under the car and everything looked fine no blowing when just ticking over. Had a look near the cat/manifold and saw this [emoji21] I take it I'll need a new manifold and gasket...

Hello all, Its been getting better since i replaced all the engine mounts and dog bone but its still hitting the bulkhead when you go into any gear in a spritley manner. Its a loud DUNK. Was even worse on track but doesn't stop performance. Anyone got any suggestions.

The hanger on my backbox have snapped, exhaust it still on but hanging via centre mount, can someone with welding experience let me know if they think this is repairable? I would like to keep this exhaust simply as the sound is perfect, not droney at all, and I have found it difficult in the...

As title, please could anyone advise on what adjustments I can do. Cheers

Hello, On my 2001 clio 172 i noticed an oil leak near the exhaust manifold. Firstly i sealed the plenum area as this was the area i initially thought it was coming from. On further inspection it seems to be coming from the exhaust manifold studs. Exhaust gasket has been changed but it still...

Sooooo the original exhaust on the ph1 172 has finally gone :p :D I want to keep it as standard as possible, but the original exhausts weren't really built to last - granted mine did but from what i'm reading otherwise. I don't want extra noise from the back. What should I be looking at? How...

Right, so mine are shot and I'm needing new ones. Just wondering what the best way forward is. I assume this is the correct OEM replacement part...

Time has come for me to change exhaust, currently have a scorpion resonated with decat (one back box). Tbh it's lacking something, noise is good but its just a constant noise there's no 'character' to it! Looking at selling it as it isn't that old. Tempted by miltek or a ktec one...anyone had...

My standard exhaust was hanging by a thread and blowing so bad it was no use I had to replace it. I'm a 32 years old and didn't want nothing loud and noisey. but after seeing Renault wanted £840 for a standard exhaust I looked at aftermarket stainless steel. Saw I was still looking at £400...

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone could help. Basically my exhaust split from the manifold and cat while driving which caused the engine management to start flashing, which is expected. So I've change the spring bolt exhaust kit and the exhaust is now fine, not blowing at all. But the...

Hi All, Cant decide on an after market exhaust for the car, so..................... I'm going to make one (with help from an uncle who made a custom titanium one for his kitcar - including manifold!), it will be de-catted, with just a re-packable backbox to suit track noise limits. Has anyone...

alright guys I'm not that familiar with mechanics so need some clarification. My 182 usually happily sits around 1.2K/1.5K revs at idle, today it's sank below 1000 revs.. Noticed the exhaust peeing out water/petrol from the exhaust tips and then now seen a leak from where the cat meets the rear...

Tried searching this before as thought it would of been done, but only thread I could find virtually all the images weren't working So basically all I'm after is a photo of people's exhausts and just what size tip it is Also, anyone know the standard 182 exhaust tip size out of interest...

Hi guys This is probably straight forward as not had time to get under my car but the exhaust heat shield round rear suspension where mid bit meets tail section is loose.... Where does it bolt to and is there an easy way to attach it to somewhere without getting it into the garage to get it up...

Hi.. me again... Since purchasing my 182 in January I have had problems avoiding speed bumps as I am aware that my cat/centre box will scrape. Today I had a further look under the car and all mounts looked to be as they should. I wondered if anyone can advise on the best way to fix this...

Sorry all to keep on about exhaust questions, hopefully this will be the last one! Basically my exhaust is low at the back, but not because of sagging mounts, basically it doesn't actually use the rear mounts at all! Could I get an exhaust hanger welded onto the backbox to use that mount...

Exhaust For the 182, is the back twin exhaust compatible with the existing DCI setup? Would it be just a case of disconnecting the rear back piece and attaching the twin pipes (building a 182 rep)? Gearbox My current de-acceleration isn't very smooth when lifting foot off the accelerator. It's...

Hi everyone! I'm new to fast clio ownership and so far it's great! I just have one niggling concern over how my 182 behaves when it's being driven properly. I understand this is a bit repetitive but I just need to know I haven't bought a duff one! The previous owner had the cat removed and it...

I have got a bit of a knocking noise coming from the rear left corner. I know I have a rattling exhasut but this is a little different, or could it be an exhaust still? Started the other weelk when I changed the rear discs and pads. I have put the anti-rattling retaining springs to the pads...

Underneath the bolted joint the two halves of the pipe butt up and exhaust leaks between the butted ends - there appears to be no sleeve or anything to properly seal the pipes before the clamp goes on? soz pic is bit blurry
