Hi All,
Well im starting to dis like my Clio 172 at the moment, it has started playing up.
The car is a phase 1 172 and the problems are listed below
1 : Trouble starting most of the time, then after around 3 tries it starts, but sometimes it starts 1st time ? (Could it be the tdc sensor, or fuel pump?)
2: After around 10 minutes of driving my speedo decides it does not want to work and stops working (Internal speedo drive sensor?)
3: My Trip computer is not working (the mpg starts ok averaging 30 then it starts to tick down all the way to 0, without change of pace / driving, when reset it does not come back up until the car has been turned off / back on (i have recently changed the battery but this had made no difference)
4: When going over bumps there is a loud knocking noise from the back drivers side wheel / suspension (any ideas ?)
Is anyone able to shed some light on these?
I dont wanna spend a major amount of money on this because the price of the cars atm it would not be viable to spend £1000 +
Thanks in advance for your help, also if this is the wrong thread i apologise, make me love my 172 again !
Regards
Tony
