A chap i knew had a 172, when he sold it it had covered 160,000 miles and he sold it for peanuts, he then bought a second hand 182 2 years old from a main dealer......which is still going strong. 160,000 miles aint that much for a modern car but he thrashed it *everywhere*....now he`s 23 and he...

Can anybody tell me the different parts used to make a 172 into a 182, exactly what gives the later car the extra 10 bhp? ....ta

.............not so, nothing to do with respect! just that is your mum drives the car she is less likely to have an accident because she is a better more experienced driver (LOL!:) ;) ...worse still? so is your nan! ) My son pays £1800 for a clio rsi with 3 points and my other son he pays...

I had some very similar FLi`s in my 318i, they were good but i`d really like some more volume. they are 5 1/2 inch front and rear aren`t they?

yeah, infinity 5.1 perfects i`ve been looking at, just dunno if they are best for the music i like it`s a bit embarrassing cause of my age! (my kids drive cars) and im a bit outta my depth, i like trance music and that sort of thing, loud as f**k etc im only looking at em because they are about...

As the ice in my 172 seems knackered, well o.k. then, not very competent ;) i want to upgrade, are there any people here who know the best thing to buy for certain types of music? Like electronic music etc would i be best going for some component JBL gti`s x 4 front and rear for my car or some...

..................me too, do you think he realises that he *really* could get a custodial sentance for this if it is a real rta? Why do you think insurance is so expensive for young men? :clown:

.......wots an IK manifold?

really? mine does it in any gear at any speed, past 5000 rpm i *so* hope it is the exhaust, i can use it as an excuse to fit an aftermarket one, and hopefully a sports cat etc thanks folks, i will have to get it on some ramps

......no it`s deffo not the exhaust, and it only makes the noise when the engine is on load, in gear and full(ish) acceleration, anybody any idea`s please?

this could also be the problem with mine, it had a rear box on in may so maybe the (original ?) center box is knackered

you got a point there, there isn`t a whistle but there is a swooshing type of sound

yeah thanks doc, can i book it in with you to fix it, that marty is a wakner, i dont trust him his eyes are too close together

flux capacitor? wtf is that please?

when accelerating, keeping to "normal" under 4000 rpm my car seems o.k. but when i use the power (when i boot it!) and the engine revs past 5000rpm on full throttle it starts screaming from the engine, not just revs a really shrill screaming noise, i also get a whooshing noise from the (std)...

...................yeah there is that! and yeah it does stink too my missus hates the stink, it makes her feel sick, unles it`s the stigma of travelling around in a fiat

I have an old FIAT Tipo diesel (I HATE THE F****** THING WITH A PASSION!) but..... it`s a indirect injection engine which has the Bosch EPVE diesel pump on it, therefore it can cope with the thicker oil which you can buy straight off the shelves in supermarkets. In the summer i use rapeseed oil...
