No b4 and after results sorry,dnt thnk i wil hav any either coz i will b going ova to german tdi soon,sadly. I only paid 16 quid 4 my throttle tho off ebay,so wel worth tryn if u can get 1 this cheap.

Well in my opinion theres better accelaraition from low down,and my 5k kick is basically gone,just revs hard smoothly past it. Here are the part numbs 4 it,as i dont know what year it came off. Vw,audi part number 022133062ac. Bosch part numb 0280750097. Hope this helps.

Just a little bit of info if any1 wants to fit a larger throttle body,the golf 4 motion 2.8 v6 bosch item fits the clio 172 with a little bit of fettling. 2 bolt holes line up perfect and the otha 2 just has to hav the holes on the throttle widend a few mm. Apart from this it plugs up and runs...

FRANKENSTEINS ALIVE,LOL. :cool:. Changed sum fuses and relays then the imob light stayed on solid, then my battery died from being cranked over a billion times.lol. charged it up, reconnected it and she fired up.

are they all the same on the 172 cup? and is it defo working?

after changing a few fuses and relays i have change now. still wont start,but the imob light is fashing fast on the dash and nothing happens when i turn it over! could this be the transpoder ring 4 the key?

bit baffled really,given up 4 now. guna have to book it in to a garage tomorrow,get it connected to diagnostics.

hi. yes the red light goes off.

AM i right in thinking the 172 when the ignition is turned on, it makes a kind of buzzing noise in the engine bay somewhere! where does this noise come from? coz mine is making no noise atall.

any1 else got any ideas on this? :S

no worries, thanks loads for replying anyway. you sound as stumped as me,lol. i always get these stupid kind of probs.

all the plugs are getting a spark to. happened over about 5 days, sometimes it would start and the next morn it wouldent! now it wont atall. tried roll start to.

hi, yeah the fuel pump is working and pressure at the rail. pulled the fuel pipe off the rail and got a mate to turn it over and it pumps fuel. did the same with the injectors,but the injectors are not working.

yeah i have 1,tried that but no codes are coming up. the middle management light on the dash is on tho,the 1 like a coiled wire :S

just tried my spare key, no joy exactly the same. thanks tho
