Im not sure of its using more fuel.
Today i took a drive, and i can see that the mpg is only related to the speed, the faster the less fuel used, does not matter if im in 3rd or 5th gear, and that makes me think that the throttle position sensor or flywheel sensor is making this problem.. ?
And thanks for the tips, I have had a clio sport for more then 5 years.
I am familiar with the car, but this is unusual.
Its like the car trip computer is... Fucked up
9mpg is.. Good for a veyron, not for my clio.
Its showing 3 km pr l. Thats alot, thats 3 times more then when doing 60 mph normally. 9mpg its says when translateted
But there is no difference in gear or not.
I dont think its the water temp sensor, since it unlocks to 7200 rpm when hot.
I dont think its the co2 (lambda) sensor, since the...
Hi guys, Hope you can help me.
The car is a 2001 ph1 clio sport.
The car runs fine, no misfiring or anything like that.
But when driving, the trip computer shows that the car is using way to much fuel.
When rolling at 60mph, no gear selected, it Will show max fuel used 29,9L/ 100km
When...

My box died on my 172 ph1 this sunday. Done 170.000km
Front wheels blocked up and it spilled all the gearoil.
Problems before it died, for 6months it has had a little whining sound when driving.
Just had this problem this morning.. car crancked as it should but would not start.. after a couple of minutes it came to life.. But had the same problem last year, where I changed the battery, but it seems periodic.. I will try and look into my TDC
Hi guys.
I earlyer had a R21 Turbo Quadra, and in that I used a XRD display
http://www.mbcarperformance.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=680_1353_1354&products_id=2995
Bought from MB carperformance.
It worked really nicely :)
Now the question, where do I connect it to my clio 172 ph1 ...
I called my danish dealer to ask how much a exhaust manifold would cost me for a R21 Turbo Quadra. £700 was the answer..
I quickly said that I would like 5.. he said what ? and I say goodbye and hanged up.
A little side note that happend yesterday.
My clio had to get its mot done.
Then...
I've gotten the new mount from Ktech, the big one.. And i moved the engine forward, but still got THE noice.. Then i found out it was the rear exhaust mount that went on the "holder" of the exhaust.. so today i pushed the engine towards the cabin, and it worked.. no more ARGH sound for me..
Hello lads.
On my 172 ph1, the speeder seems to get stuck around 2k now and then.. And the throttle seems a bit dodgy around 1-2K rpm.
Renault said I would need new throttlebody..
is it a common problem, and can i fix it somehow without buying a new ?
Regards

Im also in the 172 group that have this problem.
I have the ph1 172, and changed the dogbone mount to the upgraded version from K-tech (non twisted one)
And it went from knocking at high reves in 1st gear to growling (the constant noise) in 1st+2nd gear under hard acceleration. Going to try...
Maybe they are the proffesionals.. But at Renault a couple of Enginers have been sitting doing tests, and they know a tad more then the local garage guy..
And you do see them snapping before time.. I Would get mine done instantly.. But then again, love my car to much to let something like that...
Im SO sorry to hear that it still are posible for the minority to kill the good times for people really doing an effort !
Best wishes to Wayne and Kathy, and to the cliosport admins.
