Could someone please confirm whether this is the correct coolant temp sensor for the 172 Cup? It only lists it for V6 on ebay. I can't actually find one listed specifically for the 172...
Hi,
Does anyone know if this is the same rear ARB kit that KTEC racing are selling??? They don`t seem to have a photo of the kit on that site, but I`m assuming Whiteline only do one 20mm rear ARB for the Clio range??.

Anyone know where I can get the tube spacers for the compbrake solid top mounts(The spacer that sleeves over the shock rod, it sits between top of strut and bottom of top mount and its about 1/2 inch in height). I'm going to try Compbrake on Monday(Again), but last time I asked they didn`t seem...
Need to get a new bracket thing for my front anti roll bar on my 172 cup as its snapped and failed MOT. Its the clip/bracket right at the end that bolts the end of the anti roll bar to the underneath of the wishbone. A renault part number would be great too!.
Thank yoU!

Anyone any ideas what would cause a RBT Front Brake imbalance of 24% on my cup advisory on MOT?? I`ve only just had new discs fitted and my pads have lots of meat on them...
Anyone else experienced problems with their drivers side Aero wiper not sitting flushing against the windscreen(its arched slightly)?? The result is a patch of the screen doesn`t get wiped!! Very annoying. I haven`t figured out what to do yet, thought about bending the wiper to see if it...
Is there an easy way to change the disc on the 172 cup without completely removing the caliper? The instructions that came with the Brembo's shows one bolt being removed and then the caliper rotates up and away from the disc, how does this work?? I took the caliper off completely last time I...
On/off feeling through the pedal when i brake, it looks like i'm purposely pressing the brake pedal on and off from a pedestrians point of view because the car moves slightly. My front discs and pads haven`t been on for long, brembos and they have lots of meat on them. My rear discs look ok...
I can find alot of Tranself gear oils on Ebay but not the TRX which Renault recommend. The closest I can find is http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Elf-Tranself-75w80-TRZ-gearbox-manual-transmission-oil-/110760469645?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item19c9d6a48d
Anyone know what the...
My car is at 101k and I don`t think the brake fluid has ever been changed... Has anyone a guide on the correct way to bleed the system on the 172 cup and how to refill? Also whats the recommended brake fluid to use on these cars? Recently fitted brembo discs and pads , so I want to try and...
Seeing as Winter is approaching rapidly and my car is at 101k(think it last had its coolant change at 65k) I thought I would do a coolant change on it ready for the lovely British winter time. Has anyone any instructions on the correct way to empty the old coolant/flush it from the engine and...
Just a quick one. Added a 182 manifold and decat to my 172 Cup + V6 airbox and CAF. Not really major mods I know. I would like to get it remapped to get the best I can out of what I have. Do I go RS Tuning Leeds for about £300(setup on rolling road etc) or the cheaper option of RS Tuner...
Has anyone built a longer 5th for the 172/172 cup Gearboxes??? In my opinion the top speed is the only thing that lets the 172 and cup models down! I`ve had mine screaming in 5th gear at 140mph, surely there is room for a longer 5th gear? 160mph top speed would be nice so that we can beat the...
Seeing as I was sold a bent 182 manifold on Ebay and I`m now looking at getting another one(straight, not bent). Do I stick with the 182 manifold or go back to my 172 mani?
It would be nice to see the actual true gains from the 182 manifold over the 172 on paper. At the moment I am in the...
I`m planning to go to RS Tuning to have a remap. My exhaust at the moment is sort of a custom job in that it started life as a twin exit Magnex stainless, but now I have had a single exit welded on. The system itself from engine to exit is 182 mani, Decat, centre resonator and a sport/high...
So peed off. Wanted to put my standard 172 cup springs back on tonight. What a nightmare I had with my solid top mounts. The big threaded ring on one of them has somehow become threaded and its getting so far on then locking tight, i had to ease it off with a screwdriver and rubber mallet...
Fitted some progressive springs on my 172 Cup about a year ago. Its getting to the point now where my back is slowly giving in. The car seems to be really harsh when travelling over any dips in the road(especially sudden declines), it will just drop like a ton of bricks. Also if I`m not careful...
Is there a throttle controller available for the Ph2? I've been reading into Throttle controllers online and in alot of cases they can improve throttle response on drive by wire systems, sharpen pedal response. Just wondered if it has been looked into for the clio?

Anyone know if Renault have changed the shape/design slightly for the 172/182 coil pack? I ordered a new one from The Renault Centre on Ebay and it has arrived. For a start it looks different to their advertised image. It looks identical to this, but the connector is square not ellipse...
Anyone on here had any experience of re-profiled cams running on the 172??

I remember I had the cams re-profiled by Piper back in the day on my 91 Swift...
Suddenly can no longer tune into Classic FM. This is not a joke, Classic FM is my favourite channel. So no taking the pee! I just find it odd why it suddenly cannot tune into it, if I seek it seems to go straight past 100.10FM like it doesn`t exist anymore...
Any ideas? The head unit is...
I live in the Burton area, so looking for a good price on a full bonnet respray (on a Mondial Blue 172 Cup) in the midlands area. Any advice and prices?
Thanks,
Samuel :cool:
On the back of my steering stalk there is a dial wheel that you can turn, but it doesn`t seem to be working properly. You turn it both ways and you have to turn it about 4 times before it switches tracks up or down on the CD I am listening to and its really annoying. This has happened ever...
Anyone know if this is a Genuine Renault Injector? I`m thinking of replacing mine with new ones as my cars getting close to the 100,000 mile mark. :cool...

Are they worth the price tag, is there really an improvement over Renault leads and what are the gains?
My car is suddenly losing power around 4500-4800rpm. It feels almost like the fuel is being cut, like the limiter has moved, and before anyone asks I don`t drive a diesel! lol. The engine doesnt cut out completely.
Any ideas ? There are no engine warning lights on.
