You drive past me flashing and giving me the thumbs up on friday (bit delayed I know)! I waved back in my Ph2 Iceberg 172. Was camping there for the weekend :D There's loads of Clio Sport's in South Wales!!

Ok I've searched a plenty with no luck. I've now replaced my ABS sensors, brake pedal switch (and adjusted it correctly) and my ABS rings are fine. The ABS light still comes on about 50% of the time, only going off after an ignition key off/on. What else could it possibly be?!!

Ok I've searched and given up. I changed my wheel to a Momo the other day, connected up the horn exactly how I thought it should be, and something shorted out somewhere, it didn't like it. Now my horn doesn't work. The fuse is still intact. I want to trace the wiring back through the column...

I was the weird guy walking past taking a photo of the R26.R, then I drove past you two parked up in my Iceberg 172 later on. Southend was busy today!!! Never seen so many bikes in my life....

As above, do the stanard Koni front shocks on the Mk1 V6 fit on the Ph2 172 please?

JB ftw!! And Hamilton for podium somewhere :evil:

Fook knows whether I put this in the right place when I put it in the faults/problems section, so its in here too, cos I'm desperate for people to read! Ok I thought I'd cured my front steering issues that I had, but after driving a friends 172 yesterday, it feels far better then mine...

I've searched aplenty with no luck. My ABS and ESP lights have been on for ages and neither of them work. What do we think may be the most likely cause? First thing I'm thinking is one or more of the ABS sensors as its the only sensor I can think of that both the ABS and ESP systems will feed...

Got my car to ATSpeed in Rayleigh, Basildon today. Top guys, really helpful and chatty, had a good laugh. Got an at the wheels peak power figure of 146.7bhp and peak torque of 182.2Nm. My cars got a Pipercross Viper and RS Tuner 98RON cal and thats it. Will scan in the curves at work tomorrow...

As above, I'm removing my alternator in order to remove and replace my pas pump. I've undone everything I can get to (big bolt at the bottom, bolt on the top, all cables etc) and it won't come out, it pivots around the bottom up and down a fair bit, enough to get the belt off. It seems like...

Any chance anyone could supply a photo of either left or right rear seatbelt pretensioner in a Ph2 172 please? I need the left one, but don't know what it looks like as I'm away in Finland. All I need is a photo (stating for definate whether its a RIGHT or LEFT) or even a description of which...

I ask as mine needs replacing, the bearing is making the noises. My cambelt and tensioners however weren't done very long ago so do not need doing. How big a job is it? I'll be doing it myself at the same time as replacing pas pump and aux belt. Cheers me dears. :D

Guys, Bit of an emergency this one. Last weekend I did 620 miles in the 172 and a vibrating began. Not vehicle speed related, only load related. So that instantly said to me CV joint as it wasn't really coming through the steering wheel and was shaking the car quite "melodically" (not in a...

Ok, tried searching, no luck. I have Koni (not sure if adjustable or not) dampers and am trying to remove my top mounts. They don't seem to have allen key sockets in the middle of the 21mm nuts like the standard ones are supposed to. They have a 10.5mm or 11mm nut, with a little tab that spins...

As above, had a massive Cliosport sticker on the bumper iirc

Anyone any experience with Gaz coilovers? I know Gaz are supposed to be a fairly reputable company, and when I do come to getting coilovers I'm not spending silly money. These seem quite good value...

Tried search, no luck. After spending around £400 on PAS work over last few months, just took my 172 round the block and all of a sudden grinding noises start after a couple of corners, then about 30 secs after that there was PAS fluid all over the road, and almost all loss of PAS (heavy...

Now yes, I do have 2118's. So straight away a no no but, a friend has a set available so it would be rude not to enquire as to what the general drill is with fitting these to a Ph2 172? Details such as min size wheels needed, whether adaptors are available or bespoke only, min disc size to run...

Help! Just got my 172 back from Ren-o-tec £540 lighter in the pocket after having a replacement steering rack fitted (that I supplied) and new engine mounts. There were various complications and he had to drop the subframe in order to do it, hence the price. Anyway, car feels loads better...

As above, was picking mine up and saw this. Anyones?

As above, stuck in traffic with us at about 8am this morning!! End of his registration number was "WAM" or "WUM" I think......

Guys, I need pointing in the right direction for my girlfriends Ford Ka, now I know its not a Clio, but Ka forums are full of girls putting pink fluffy seat covers in their cars and heart stickers on their bodywork. And I'm sure this is probably a general automotive problem rather then...

As above. Going towards Basildon past Essex Ford dealer with hazard lights on this morning at 8am??!

Hi, I've done a good search and can't find the answer. Are the steering racks the same on 172 ph2's and 182's? For example would a 55 reg 182 steering rack fit on an 03 reg 172? Cheers! :)

The orange (sorry don't know the official name) followed me past the BP garage in Basildon in traffic. The black one was on a roundabout up the hill from there.

Ok, go easy on me, heres some pics of my 172 I've had since thursday last week. Bought the 2118's on sunday. Also gave it a service on sunday. Loving it so far, just need a new exhaust middle section (baffles vibrating), 20mm hubcentric spacers for front wheels (as you can see), various...

For some reason, my front track isn't quite wide enough to fill my arches with the standard 172 5 spokes or my new 2118's, why is this? I've never seen one like it before? I think the front end may have been involved in an accident and repaired at some point, could it have had 182 cup arches put...

Hi, Just picked up a 2003 172 in silver this evening (not sure which silver? looks ever so slightly bluey). Was a good deal to be honest, been trying to sell my 2002 Laguna DCi for a few weeks with a "will part ex for following..." in the ad with not much luck, but someone got in touch last...
