[Fletcher]

Today i found something under my passenger seat, anyone got any idea what it was?

 

[Lee]

Autochanger?

 

[Mattieuk]

Osama Bin Laden :S

 

[Spammy]

Autochanger?

^^^?

 

[Josh27]

A penny chew?

 

[Fletcher]

No Mattieuk it wasn't Osama Bin Laden but good guess all the same
Lee was correct today i did find a Alpine Renault 6 cd changer, i'm glad i dropped that pound coin otherwise id be sitting here with no idea that i had one.

They removed them from mid 2003 onwards in the last of the 172s. When they added Cruise Control they took out the autochanger for some reason.

 

[Fletcher]

Lee i had no idea that the cd changers were standard items on the 172s before the 2003 models.

 

[V1NNY]

how long have you had the car lol

 

[msa197]

£1/£2 coin(s)
As you haven't cleaned the car for ages LOL

 

[Fletcher]

Got it in december 05 not that long ago, i would be pretty pissed off if i found it say a year from now but only had it a few months, so thats not to bad.

 

[Rich]

Must have been a pleasant suprise, better than half a sandwich or something!

 

[Mike@Rentech]

or a used condom!

 

[Fletcher]

yeah r jay the thing is, me and my girlfriend have done alot of miles in it since we brought it but i haven't had the time to have a proper look about it yet.

 

[Tom_E]

[Fletcher]

or a used condom!

lol no i won't have sex in the clio, it might cause another rattle

 

[Rich]

No free CD's in it aswell then ?!

 

[Tom_E]

[Fletcher]

No mate it was empty

 

[Norris_309]

a few years back i bought a 2001 dynamique.
A few weeks after i got it i was giving it a bit of a clean & found the tray underneath the passenger seat was full of cds .. there was about 10 original cds in there
And the ashtray was full of coins.. shame it was mainly coppers!

 

[Fletcher]

Good fine that Norris

Unless all the cds were from artists you didn't like?

 

[Waitey]

Bloody hell. Just looked under my seat and found one too lol

Last owner told me it didn't have one!

 

[Mike@Rentech]

ey up I just looked under mine......

hehe

 

[GazCB]

I've got a 2003 172 with a disc changer and no cruise control. I'd happily exchange my disc changer for cruise control any day of the week.

 

[Waitey]

ey up I just looked under mine......

hehe

Needs a clean lol!

 

[Day]

Don't worry Fletch, took me 6 weeks to find mine under the drivers seat

 

[kully]

No Mattieuk it wasn't Osama Bin Laden but good guess all the same
Lee was correct today i did find a Alpine Renault 6 cd changer, i'm glad i dropped that pound coin otherwise id be sitting here with no idea that i had one.

Glad im not the only one that did this i had the car for 6 week before i found it

 

[jon_r]

Did none of you press the steering wheel controls and get No CD appear and not wonder what it was?

 

[Neil G]

What a bonus...must feel good discovering the CD changer

 

[Fletcher]

Well it beats seeing a headlamp washer ball leaking, or missing or another rattle.

Fletcher.

 

[trailerparktrev]

I found two cans of foam...... Might aswell be shaving foam

 

[dubster]

Yea I did but it didn't click!! I am thick!!

 

[Fletcher]

When mine said no cd i just thought the cd player was taken a while to read the disc, in future i will read all of my manuals.

 

[caymanr26]

cd changer was never standard in a 172 - always extra on the price. I did not bother with mine as I always intended changing the head unit.
I can believe some of you did not know it was there - I guess that means your cars need a hoover!

 

[Steve2004]

Haha. I know how you feel. I've got a X reg 172 and no one told me it had a 6 CD autochanger. The car advert didn't mention it, place I bought it from didn't either.


Didn't find it for 3 months! Funnily enough, I dropped some money and found it by accident too.


And to think I was only a week or two away from getting an aftermarket headunit.
