    Lower torque after aux belt replacement on 172 mk2

    yeah the crank pulley (as well as the cam pulleys) are not keyed so if the bolt is removed the timing can slip, if that's the case its not slipped enough to cause damage just requires locking and reset (assuming that is the case obviously)

    Clio ph2 Cruise Control Brazil.

    First you would need to find out if the car is pre wired for cruise control, id take a guess at no due to cost saving since no model that late had cruise control, in the 2001-2005 cars you could option cruise control so it made sense to just have one wiring loom that could accommodate both. If...

    Lower torque after aux belt replacement on 172 mk2

    did they remove the crank pulley to get the belt on as they didn't have a tool for the auto tensioner? I've seen a r****d attempt that before.

    Limp mode definitive solution?

    The donor car that I used to build my 182 van had a limp mode issue, the previous owner had thrown the parts cannon at it via a garage who were guessing. It had a new accelerator pedal and a new throttle body, I unplugged the white connector under the fuse box, cleaned up the connections and...

    Flat Performance After Service

    Yeah but if he's unplugged or damaged the connector to the solenoid while removing the inlet it won't be working. Check the vvt solenoid connector is ok. Make sure the map sensor on the inlet is ok. Does it idle ok? Not higher than normal? No miss fire?

    1.2 TCE 100 Spark Plug Seals

    I've never changed the seals but the rocker cover is a piece of piss to get off even if you need to remove it.

    172 phase 2 feels like is driving on its own

    if its wandering about and just feeling "loose" then its most likely the rear dampers are shot or the track rods/rod ends but id start with dampers!

    Clio centre Console Head Unit

    I know rlink supports android auto but I'm not sure if it's interchangeable with medianav or if the wiring loom is different. Your 2015 will likely be medianav 1, medianav evolution didn't support rlink but there is a later model from 2019 I believe that looks like medianav evolution but...

    Pressure washer recommendations?

    My mate has a kranzl and it's a cracking bit of kit, I love how quiet it is, I keep saying I'll get one when my K4 dies but so far it's about 9 years old and is still going like it's brand new, key is strong water pressure and empty it when done. I leave mine setup in the garage with a 15m hose...

    Clio Mk3 Brake Bleed Help!

    were you doing it on a level surface? all 4 corners jacked up at the same height? if its not sitting right it will appear that the fluid is full but its just sucking air though, caught me out the first time I done a MK3, makes more sense when you see a side on view of the reservoir

    Clio 197 Issue bleeding ABS

    Bought a random 200 abs pump from eBay for £20, swapped over, car took it with no issues, RStuner read the previous fault codes from the previous car, cleared ok. Tried to bleed, same issue, nothing on the left hand side! Must be a wiring issue?!

    Cross compatible parts between mk2 ph2 non sports and the 172/182

    As above you end up putting cash into something slower and then end up replacing it anyway, to be fair though maybe its my old age but i prefer hustling my RSI down a backroad now than a 172/182, your having fun at slower speeds and feel your working it harder more of the time, but a twisty...

    Cross compatible parts between mk2 ph2 non sports and the 172/182

    Body shells are the same, everything can be swapped Best upgrade you could do for handling will be a wide track conversion. You will need front lower arms, ARB, front hubs, front brakes, suspension, tie rods and rod ends, drive shafts

    New engine need advice 👍🏻

    Shouldn't tap just because its old, it may be that the engine is worn however and no adjustment etc is going to solve that. As Brigsy said, only straight swap will be a like for like D4F, however if you can get a scrappy with a 1.2 TCE that would be my choice, get the engine, box, engine wiring...
