^^^^^phew its not just me being a dullard^^^^ ;)

@lot, oh yes my pants nearly changed colour at least once! Torque steer is annoying, it was on here a while ago that changing the tyres can help, as the contis have really stiff sidewalls, but its expensive to just try. [Edited by fozzy on 11 June 2004 at 12:25am]

All of them pull to one side or other when u put ur foot down, dependent on the road surface. I live in norwich and ive nearly chucked myself off the road, or gone into the person im trying to overtake a few times. Just make sure your actually holding the wheel, and your not do-ing the boy...

South shields for me, but work away most of the time

Ive only had 2 moments when ive had all the wheels locked up, and it was my fault for pushing too hard, abs would have helped but just pump your brake pedal and dont flap!! Oh and change underwear when you get home.... ;)

Ring the guy, get the reg no. and get the car hpid.

my fault, Left of the air box, right of the manifold and attached to it.

Yes it seems to be coming from the black thing thats just to the right of the air box and to the left of the manifold. Also found that if i press the milo trip button when "oil check" is on i get a load of 0s above oil check then the milometer comes on??

High pitched, is there as soon as i turn the key. when i start the car it disappears or I cant hear it anymore.

When I switch my ignition on (engine not started) im getting a high pitch whine from the engine bay, also my speedo is locked on milometer can not change it. car starts fine, its only just happened. helllllllllllllllllp

Cheers Jay, will pass that on, probably over the phone as he aint to happy at the mo!!

Its for my mate, he has a 1.4 and his rear o/s brake lining has fused to the drum, its gonna cost £400 to bo done by reno, as they mailto:f@@ked">f@@ked the bearing taking it off aswell! Have heard rumours that this is a known problem by reno, and there is a mod out, is there any truth in...

why you buying a 172 then ;)

Go to reno with the reg no and chassis no. and get them to pull the history of the car, if anythings been done by a reno dealer it will be on there.

Mine has started doing the exact same thing!! Noticed it at crimbo when I went home, and when I came back to work (6hr drive each way). Havent drove the car on any distance since. Keep us posted when you take it in pls. cups are great, just they need more tlc than most others...
