Oh and shouted / swore at the stupid f*cking plastic screw things that secure said scuttle panel in place - I now need 4 replacements.

F*cking Renault.

[gaz90]

Fitted Osram nightbreaker+'s, cleaned my throttle body and checked connections of wires to hopefully make engine management light disappear for good

 

[A4LLY]

Adjusted the brake pedal sensor so the brake lights work when there meant to. Then took it for a blast to check it was ok. Just love the way that it accelerates when giving it the beans.

 

[jonesyblue87]

Took it for an MOT, passed with no advisories. Happy days!

 

[2Damnsly Andy]

Fitted new exhaust mount, took the old one off and it literally crumbled in my hands. Also disabled my airbag warning light permanently (but that was last week).

My first day of ownersip! Picked it up from the trader and drove it properly for the first time - my god it is so much fun! Love the power that kicks in at high revs. When I got it home I fitted a new number plate light casing, and non-orange indicators. Already have the cooksport springs on the way so looking forward to fitting them shortly and just enjoying the car really.

[MicKPM]

Today saw the start of "Operation Coops" which is removing all things dirty/old on the 172 and replacing them with new items and for the bits I can't replace, have them cleaned. Today ive done:-

Coolant system flush and type-d refill with a new reservoir bottle. Vibratech mount fitted. Rear plate light replaced and got a recently added dent on the NSR quarter removed (I wish the fucker that did it serious genital problems).

Next to do is pull all the engine covers, manifolds and brackets to send them for chemical cleaning and get the wheels some fresh paint early next week.
