Does anybody know if a 2000 Megane Coupe has the same wheel fitting as a Clio?
I have just taken some alloys off my Clio and want to fit them to one of these...
Cheers.
Do they do a -60mm drop on the 172???

I thought they were -40mm... if so, I'd have them but don't want to go any lower than 40mm!
Any good?

I'm looking to lower my 172 Mk2 and I believe it would be better to replace with Coilovers than just springs as knowing my luck, the dampers will need replacing anyway!!
How much roughly to fit a set of these?
Cheers!

Should I keep my Wolfrace Shadow Chrome Zen's? They are 17" with Avon Tyres. They have about 1yr / 12k miles left on them,
Or...
Swap them for a set of the 182 Cup anthracite wheels with a similar amount of tread left on the tyres?
I have just come back from a local garage where they had my car up on ramps due to a strange problem with the steering. It kind of wobbles and feels like it wants to steer itself...
Upon getting it on the ramps, the mechanic spins the wheels and there is a noise coming from under the engine...
I'm not sure if this is normal as I have not reallt noticed this before but my wheels sometimes seem to have a mind of their own!!
I have aftermarket 17" alloys on so I expect a little tram lining but every bump I seem to feel on the front wheels and sometimes the steering wheel will pull...
Hi all - has anyone got any decent Tomtom Splash screens? If so please could you post them? Sick of the boring green one and don't wanna pay 0.99p for some random google image search!!
Guys, its gadget time again... I've got myself a permanent dock kit for my Tomtom Go 700. Has anybody fitted one of these to their Clio? My only problem will be the number of other black boxes I've got stashed behind my Head unit!!! It was a bargain, £25 off Ebay - Supposed to be about £80 -...
She is having her cam belt, Aux belt and water pump replaced - she will be in for 4 days!! Dropping her off on Saturday.
I get the pleasure of a Mitsubishi Colt as a courtesy car!! Any ideas what they are like?
Had an interview at Opal Telecom yesterday and spotted a Silver 182 with a "ring" sticker on the boot...

Is the new MOT all done by computer? What I mean is, whether the computer actually tests the colour of bulbs e.t.c. Mine has just failed on the colour of the front (indicator) bulbs!
I had white LED sides in but the guy swore that it was the indicators that had failed. Looking at the...
When my 172 was in for service a few weeks back, they said it needed a new switch on the power steering as it was leaking...
They have quoted me £50 for the switch and £16 labour!!!
What the hell does this switch do for that price?? It must take them about 0.13 seconds to fit at that...
Is it easy to replace standard springs with a set of Apex -40mm?
I can get the springs for around £80 on the internet but don't want to have to pay stupid money to have someone fit them!!
Whats actually involved? Do you need to compress the springs to fit them e.t.c.???
BTW - my car is...
Decided to polish the lettering on my Plenum (Too lazy to do the whole lot!!)
Got bored after 20 mins and a large blister on my thumb and so decided to take some arty pics of my engine bay as the sun went down...
I've heard stories about the 172 steering wheels melting e.t.c. but is there anything else that can be damaged due to leaving car in the hot sun all day?
My birthday is coming up and I want to get something nice for my 172... Which should I get?
Ktec Carbon Front Splitter
Ktec Carbon Engine Cover
OMP Strut Brace
Decided to spray the mark on my bumper where I accidently scraped my house - Don't ask me how!!
Don't think it has turned out as I had hoped... You can see the outline of the paint where I masked the area off and after 3 -4 coats of lacquer, it still isn't shiny!!!
Think I should leave...
On the bonnet lining, I think my 172 is missing a clip from the centre as it seems to hang in the centre area. I now have a mark on my engine head where the lining has been resting (and maybe melting?)
Can I get a replacement screw/bolt/clip for this??
Anyone else have this go?
What do you think of my aerial upgrade? Think the base is kinda large...
Does it look good or gash?
Got it here - £6.50
