During training I noticed control braking are strong at over 30 KPH when the wheel rotates around a full circle in both directions just refuses to halt the vehicle, there is almost a sense of ABS stopping me completely braking and only at the speed drops below 23 KMH full containment. Is it...

Hi, a year ago i changed the timing belt and tensioner on my ph1, but being an Idiot i neglected the dephaser. no the car is "dieselish" at low rpm - and i think the dephaser's life is coming to an end. Can the dephaser be changed on it's own? do you need the locking tools? is it a full on...

Hi So apparently physics and gravity took 3 centre caps and i now only have one left. Replacements are nowhere to be found, can you guys recommend a sollution? (Preferably on ebay and with international shipping, since im not in the eu.) Thanks

trying this again: i think i have a bad earth problem somewhere - as i hold my window up buttons, while window is already up, the coolant temp gauge is starting to climb, if the car is running it will go up 2 dots, if not, it will go up almost all the way. also, my trip computer shows weird fuel...

Hey guys, i recently bought a hid conversion kit off ebay, it was the cheap one, 15ish pounds (it was recommended in one of the threads here) The seller made a mistake and sent me a set of h4 lamps(4300k), i tested them out on a friends subaru impreza gt and they worked, i later asked the seller...

Hey guys, so my troublesome clio is at it again. i used to have a problem with the temp warning light coming on with the gauge showing normal temp, so i looked at the cts loom and it was all melted insulation, i repaired it and it was alright, until few days ago when i pushed the car a bit...

Hey guys, I'm becoming frustrated with it - i fiddled with the car a bit today, removed the dead lightbulbs behind the ac panel to see what type they are so i can order some new ones, also disconnected some useless box from the old, unused, alarm (i have already removed every other bit of it...

Hi guys, So yesterday i cleaned my throttle body and tdc sensor, by cleaned i mean that i took the tb out, cleaned it with carb cleaner and oiled the spring with some bike chain lube. i also cleaned the Idle Control valve, (by spraying a shitload of carb cleaner through it). when i started the...

Hi guys, So my crank pulley just split itself in half (the rubber bit flew out), as i was looking for a pulley i found that the part number i need is 8200386460, and the price is about 100 pounds, but then i came up with part number 8200386446 with that costs much less and seems to suit the same...

Hey guys, so i had this terrible knock on my ph1 every time i hit the gas. with great advice from these forums i polybushed my dogbone, but a week has past and the clio went into service to have it's timing done, we also replaced the main mount (the one that has oil in it) with a kangoo mount...

good evening! first of all some stats - i have the car(172 phase1) for about a month now, it has done 185K km (115,000 miles+-) but has been very looked after. today i went for a drive, pulled over at a petrol station for some petrol and when i was done - the car wouldn't start! the starter was...

Hello all, So my phase1's mileage calculator is all wrong, when i floor it it says 11l per 100 km, and when i let go, it says 30l per 100 km. common sense made me think that perhaps there's a fuel flow sensor that's wired the wrong way arround, but since you guys probably took your cars apart a...

Hello Everyone, first post on here :) I have recently purchased a m2 ph1 172, and while sorting out the little stuff i noticed that my dasboard dimmer does not work, so i took the panel off, and found 2 more connectors (i also found an old alarm system that isn't working anymore :eek:). anyways...
