Got a Clio 172, it's going tonight so just gone to make sure it starts ok and it turns over for a couple of seconds then stops. It's been parked up for a while, a couple if times the battery has run low so i've recharged and it has started and run fine, have started and run it regularly...

I'm not exactly sure which, i'm sure some on here that are, but with some Cup models not having a PAS pump driven off the AUX belt, how do the blocks differ, or are they all the same externally from a mountings point of view with just variation on the supporting brackets? Also, what runs the...

Where are the cheapest places for good quality engine parts for the F4R. Head gasket, timing belt kit, rings, bearings etc Cheers

When we built my K4M Super1600 engine we had to chance the jets every time we did a full rebuild because you cannot get them out without damaging them. Is this the case with the 172 too? They are bloody dear from Renault! Cheers for any help

Got these part numbers off two cams I have just taken out of an engine, I assume they are standard but wanted to check. Part number searchs are bringing up nothing. Inlet: 0160055 CL12113 Exhaust: C00002 0291848 Thanks for any help

What are the differences between the 172 ph1 and ph2 engines? Building an engine for my new rally car, so which is better as standard, are inlet or exhaust ports bigger on either for instance. Thanks for any help.

Hi all, Have washed the engine bay of a 172, as I have many, many times but when restarted there is a warning light on the dash that looks like a coil with a box on top and a wobbly line thought it, and it won't rev above 3,000 rpm like its in some kind of safe mode. Left it idling for a bit...

A friend has a leak on the n/s inner CV boot on his 182. I've had it off and cleaned it, there didn't seem to be any dirt to cause the seal to break, any everything else seemed in order but it is still leaking. Any ideas what we can do? Cheers

Hi all, Trying to mock up the engine bay for the rally car. Does the K4M and 172 engine use exactly the same mounts as standard? Cheers

Does anyone know how the little plastic clips that hold the dash top on at the base of the windscreen come off. Going to get my rally shell blasted and need to get them off before they are destroyed. Thanks in advance.

Anyone got any good experiences? Based in Shropshire / Mid Wales and need to get an inlet manifold power coated for my Clio rally car. Got a local guy but he doesnt have the Kawasaki green I want. I'm happy to post it etc if anybody knows of someone good? Cheers in advance

What have different people on here done for an after market induction set-up? Pics would be cool! ​Cheers

How much is there to be gained from running an electric PAS pump? On my race car we ran a saxo pas pump as there wasnt the option of running the standard 182 pump. It would be easier to use the standard pump now I'm changing to a 182 engine, but is there much to be gained from not running it...

The key for a Clio I have has been lost. How straight forward is it to put a lock set in it, and to put a new barrel transponder to have it programmed to the ECU? Thanks for any advice? Cheers Hal

Hi all, About to tackle the wiring on the Rally car. Got a full standard loom, and want to take out all the stuff we don't need. Has anyone got wiring diagrams I could use please? Many thanks in advance Hal

Have seen a few people on here refurb headlights after they have gone cloudy. Please could somebody give me a quick run down of the process. Cheers, Hal

Quick one. If I had a 172 engine etc, what needs to be done to turn it into a 182? Is it just ecu and exhaust manifold? Many thanks in advance, Hal

Does anyone know where I could get a new or second hand steering rack for a Clio (hydraulic). Renault want a FORTUNE new, and getting one from France second hand is a nightmare

Hi all, does anyone know of the differences between the 182 and 172 engines, for thw ph1 and ph2s etc etc. I am looking to build a competition engine, with a spare and need to know which is the best to use. Cheers in advance, Hal

Are the lifters in the K4M and the 172 / 182 the same or are they different? Cheers

Having a lot of experience trying to extract power from the K4M 1.6, which has been less than easy, what are the 182 / 172 engines like to tune. Is it considerable easier? Lots of off the shelf parts available? What sort of reasonable power can you expect from one with throttle bodies, proper...

Does anybody on here know if the crank in the K4M 1.6 16v is the same as the crank in the 1.4? Many thanks in advance for any help.

Who do people suggest to use to have porting and poilishing done / valve seats cutting etc on Renault engines? I had a K4M head done by Ben at Angelworks about four years ago, fairly stressful experience but got a good product in the end. I believe he is no longer around? Who would people on...

I don't suppose anybody on here knows what crankshaft and rods you need to destroke a two litre engine to a 1.6. It has been done before, and using the Clio Williams block. We are really struggling to get power from our K4M now for the Super1600 class in European Rallycross, and thought that a...

Just a quick one, I have a lot of spare parts from my rallycross car that I could potentially use to build an imactualte 172 / 182 into a Super1600 replica. I could put on the full bodykit inc spoiler, and fit suspension components that are wider to suit the arches, using 17" / 18" wheels of...

Can somebody please tell me what the Clio K4M Bore x Stroke is as standard. Thanks in advance. Hal

Are there any gearboxes in the Renault range that would take the same internals as a JC5, but use a cable change instead of the normal rod type set-up? Many thanks
