I'm looking for a picture of an iceberg/titanium ph1 on silver turinis. Can anyone help? Yes, yes, I've used the search, I've trawled through the ph1 appreciation thread but I haven't been able to find any. There's a half eaten marsbar here for the winner, I'll also cover P&P.

Is it worth doing? How much lower can you actually get? Anyone have any pictures of the offending item? Ta muchly Ian

What's the common fault (is there a common fault) on ph1 front fog lights? I've checked the bulbs and they're fine. I've also replaced the wiring matrix that runs behind the front bumper and still can't get them to work. Rear fog works fine. Ian

Guys, Quick question, can I ask what is listed on the V5 for a standard 197 and a 197 R27 F1 Team. Is it - Renault Clio Sport - Renault Clio Sport 197 - Renault Clio Sport 197 R27 F1 Team We have a lovely tax payable upon importation of cars to Ireland and I'm trying to figure out which...

Guys, I tried to open the bonnet on my ph1 this evening and it's not working. If I set about taking off the bumper, is there any way that I can gain access up there to get it off? I had the front slam panel off a few days ago and the bonnet release mechanism disconnected as I was changing the...

Changing the springs and dampers today and I see that the outer cv boot on the driver side is after spitting out some grease over the last few days. Can anyone advise of the correct part number for a replacement? Renault Ireland are woeful with the provision of any sort of correct parts...

To set the scene, on Sunday out of the blue the battery on the car was dead. I jumped the car in gear and drove around for a while. The charge held the rest of Sunday, Sunday night and all of Monday - but on Monday morning the driver side window had stopped working. Tuesday 9am the car was dead...

I removed the opening handle, the grab handle, the speaker cover, the screws around the edge and the inner of the B-pillar but the door card itself doesn't seem to want to come off. Am I missing something? Are there missing screws? I wanted to, but didn't, use too much physical force lastnight...

Expensive? Renault only part? My drivers side seems to have packed in, passenger side still working fine. It was working perfectly lastnight. Ian

My silenced de-cat has arrived for the ph1 and I'm looking to get it on asap. I have previously with help, working off the ground, polybushed the ARB and it broke my heart. Another day had us both under the looking to fit a manifold/cat fitting kit. Getting access to that flange from below looks...

My ph1 passed it's NCT yesterday (Irish version of an MOT) having previously failed for emissions. It now has a clean bill of health until it's re-test in April 2011. My cat though, needs changing. The baffles inside are broken/loose and are rattling. I'm looking at either a replacement...

New cat needed. The one I have isn't purring anymore. I priced the cat from Renault Ireland this morning - €885. K-tec sell 172 sports cats for about £300. Are those my only two options? Is the cat unique to the ph1 172 or is it likely to be found in a scrappies on other Renaults?

Talk to me about headunits, I know nothing about them ... I'm looking for a headunit that plays cd/mps/wma/aac, has a rear usb port that will allow me to plug in, play and charge my ipod touch similtaneously, buttons should preferably be backlit orange, face has to be black not silver...

Is there anywhere online that stocks these or is it a main dealer job? I picked up replacement rear dampers from Yozzasport last year but fronts (or rears) don't seem to be on the website anymore (not that I can find anyway), and all K-tec stock are uprated units. Anyone?

I'll be getting my hands on an Integra Type-R that has been sitting up for quite a while, in the next week or so. I have free use of it for a few months as my mate is in Iraq and my 172 is off the road. Anyway, condition of use is I give it a major clean. All my cleaning product experience to...

People of ClioSport, I salute you. Now that the niceties are out of the way, I am in need of a new engine for my ph1. Whether Renault will be rebuilding mine free through gritted teeth or I am stuck with having to replace it myself has yet to be determined but I may aswell begin to look. Will...

The locking tool required when changing the cambelt, is this tool specific to the F4R or is it something that is also used when changing the belts on other Clios? Thanks, Ian

My mechanical knowledge only extends marginally beyond the basics, so bear with me. I think my timing belt slipped lastnight, the car sounds like a bag of spanners. In terms of the engine & belt itself, the timing belt was done by K-tec in 2007 with 60-70k on the engine, it's now on 99k. I'm...

Got a DLSR for xmas but with it being dark every night before I get home it's basically been until now before I could get out and use it. Photo novice but eager to learn and looking for all c&c. Taken with a Canon 1000D & kit lens. Some brightness/contrast/saturation alteration in photoshop...

Has anyone ordered Eagle F1 GSD3 off Camskill recently? Interested in finding out if they're the good ones or the shite ones? i.e. Made In Germany batch or otherwise. Anyone any info, need to get the order in before the morning

Very quick question, I'm looking to price a HID kit for a ph1 172 this afternoon. Can anyone tell me the bulb fitament, is it H1 etc? Thanks, Ian

Has anyone any cheeky fix to stop the glovebox lid rattling when closed on a ph1? It stops rattling if I press it with my finger, but seems to rattle from the latch when no pressure is applied ...

Guys, how much to Renault front top mounts sell for in a UK dealers? I priced them in an Irish dealers today - €125+vat per side, so about €300 for a pair, or £245stg. Solid alloy topmounts from K-tec are only £175stg for the pair!:rolleyes: Also, manifold to cat flange bolts ...

I try to do most of my own servicing and general maintenance on the car myself - be it changing the brakes, suspension, oil, filter etc. In terms of what I should be changing on my ph1 172 during regular servicing, is there anything recommended in addition to the oil & oil filter? Had a quick...

Do they rattle, meow or purr? ... eh ... sorry gone off on a tangent there ... I seem to have been getting a rattle between 2500rpm and 2600rpm over the last couple of weeks. I've been under the car a bit and made sure that all relevant parts of the exhaust were secure and not knocking off...

I read a post on here during the week of a member that had removed the lights from the fog surrounds and using two caf trumpets, made cooling ducts for the front brakes. Unfortunately, both his post and my reply to him were deleted. Has anyone any pictures of the inner arch with this done...

Went to bleed my brakes lastnight and one of the nipples is completely seized. I didn't want to force it too much lastnight for fear of braking it off and not having a replacement handy. A quick call to Renault Ireland this morning and I am none the wiser. Useless as ever. :rolleyes: Can...

Guys, I'm looking for an online supplier/ shop, that sells either Yokohama Parade Spec II, Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta or even the Toyo R1-R if anyone can help. They don't seem to be on camskill, eiretyres or mytyres. Are there others I can check? Ian
