    Clio 1.2 2010 gearbox on 28000 miles has failed. £2.7k to fix- advice required.

    It has had a service, just not a Renault one. Turns out we bought three years warranty with it too , so probably okay!

    Hi folks- no full service history- does this mean that I am unlikely to get anything out of Renault?

    Clio 1.2 2010 gearbox on 28000 miles has failed. £2.7k to fix- advice required.

    I am guessing that I wouldn't have to pay 3k if I went anywhere else though?

    Clio 1.2 2010 gearbox on 28000 miles has failed. £2.7k to fix- advice required.

    Not sure in truth- I need to check the history/docs. I have a feeling it hasn't got one.

    Clio 1.2 2010 gearbox on 28000 miles has failed. £2.7k to fix- advice required.

    Hi Folks My girlfriend's gearbox on her 2010 1.2 clio has just packed up ( as confirmed by my local reputable Renault dealer)... the car has only done 28,000 miles. I have been quoted £2800 to fit a replacement gearbox. Do you think I have a good case to go back to Renault Customer care? If...

    How heavy is your clutch?

    Thanks most of you... ;0) what's heaviest? 172 phase 1, 172 phase 2, 182 or are they all similar?

    How heavy is your clutch?

    I have recently ventured into Jap land and bought an Ignis SPort, but I am missing my clio 172. One of the reasons for me moving away was that I have a bad left knee from running, and the heavy clutch of car made it worse as I am constantly in stop-start traffic when travelling to London...

    Silky Ignis Sport

    I bought an Ignis Sport last week. Bit of a change, it has to be said.

    How much would you pay to keep a Clio 172 running when on 162500 miles?

    Well, I have done it. I bought an Ignis Sport whilst I am considering repairing the clio 172. It's ok, but performs less well in all most areas apart from maybe the seats and yellow mesh in the headrests!

    ***How much is it worth?***

    thanks for that, I appreciate it. All the wheels have been scratched up, and the interior has been well used. The bodywork is actually not too bad apart from the boot lid area.

    ***How much is it worth?***

    How much for mine? Clio 172, 02 plate, flame red. 165,000 miles. Bad Points ABS not working (may need new CV joint) EM light on Slight crunch from 2 to 3 rd gear when changing at lower speed when cold (is better when warm and is strangely not noticeable at all when changing at high revs)...

    How do I replace the first lambda sensor?

    also, would a dodgy lambda sensor cause an intermittent misfire?

    How do I replace the first lambda sensor?

    and can I just swap the pre and post cat lambda sensors around? i.e. are they the same? Cheers all!

    How do I replace the first lambda sensor?

    Is it a simple job? Thanks very much. Nearly at the end of my tether now.

    Yes, these things crop up all the time on the forum it seems. What’s your mileage?

    How much would you pay to keep a Clio 172 running when on 162500 miles?

    Yes, it is quite hard to decide what to do. I keep saying to myself that the next major repair means I'll get something else. I think I'll go for an Ignis Sport next.

    How much would you pay to keep a Clio 172 running when on 162500 miles?

    At the mo? Missing on no. 2 and 3 cylinder (in a garage today for coilpack, etc- crossed fingers). ABS broken. Bit crunchy 2- 3 gear change. In the last year its had 2 injectors, new CV joint, plugs, leads, etc.. I just kind of expect it to keep breaking things as its got to a certain mileage.

    How much would you pay to keep a Clio 172 running when on 162500 miles?

    thanks folks... up to £200 this week just to try and get it running again but it hasn't worked yet. I wish had more time.... and money of course! I get emotionally attached to all my cars, unfortunately.

    ***How much is it worth?***

    how much is my 02 plated 172 with 162,500 miles on it worth?? Anything at all?
  25. D

    172 P1 wont start, won't even try and turn over.

    I would try a different battery or try another jump start making sure that the cables are making contact on the terminals of both batteries. Pretty sure it's just a flat battery issue.
