Checked voltage and is still 11.48. Starting to think it is a dodgy alternator. Also I have noticed my petrol light is intermittent weather it comes up or not, the car as same amount in it for a while as it's not moved for ages and the needle is clearly very low

I'm assuming you mean the big red one that bolts to it?

I'm going to repair that wire better but I ca t see that being the issue so still no clue what it could be

Yeaa that's on the battery terminals

I found these wires looking a bit suspicious, anyone k ow what these wires do or are for and if it could effect charging

Hi guys I replaced my alternator on my 172 with air con at the weekend and all looked good all running okay but then realised the stop and battery light is on now The alternator is second hand from renparts and is the right 110amp. I have checked the earth earth on it and is nice and tight...

Yeaa I did disconnect it first

Just managed to put all back together and running all okay but now have the stop and battery lights on the dash? It's new battery

Okay thanks guys hopefully it was the jubilee clip being a pain

Well I thought I had, it kept slipping off but in the end I got it but the jubilee wouldnt do up any more and seemed like it was skipping rather than tightening. It wasnt a real jubilee clip was an unbranded make. Maybe it wasnt up to the job? It was 70mm - 120mm but seemed to big. I have...

Hi guys struggling to get the tensioner to loosen up enough for belt. I have got the belt off was a bit of a struggle but putting belt back on is way tight. Any ideas

Lastly guys if I were to replace just the belt how hard is it to see the route of the belt to replace?

Cheers guys!!

Found the guide thank you, looks easy enough. Do you know if any alternator from a 172 with air con will work?

Good afternoon, I have left my clio 172 stood still all over winter and had a dead battery, replaced battery but now alternator is getting extremely hot and smoking. How hard is it to replace alternator and belt? Is a 2003 with air con

Last two were spot on, found the caliper was sticking and not releasing after braking. Makes sense thinking the heat has thrown the weight off the car too. Cheers guys

I have just driven it again and today it whobbled a little when driving but lots more when I was braking l, can't look under the car until tomorrow, The discs are less than 1k miles old so surely can't be warped. When I replaced the pads though one side was extremely tough to push piston...

I have an unbalanced wheel at the front and yesterday afternoon the steering went seriously wobbly and shaking but also that wheel was really hot too. Would the over heating be because of a missing wheel weight?

Was on way home from work today and see a iceberg and made me wonder where my old icerberg is these days? had a11wup number plate, white Rotas that someone then painted blue. Really low
