If it's for track then slicks are the best thing you can get your hands on, can pick up part worn ones pretty cheap.

cheap, costs 12 a corner for me.

No guts no glory gents. Worked a treat too - what a PITA the whole job was though --- no way could I have done it alone - lining up bolts with holes in the bodywork FTL. Info on here helped hugely though.

Nevermind, figured it out

Going to change my aux belt and tensioner tomorrow - after reading the info on here, was going to go for the jubilee clip on the new tensioner to fit it back together option... only question is, I have the new tensioner and can't figure out where exactly where to put the jubilee clip... I...

Timing and aux belts were changed in may. Tensioner wasn't though... Dunno beyond that.

Hi, I'm after some advice on what could be the root cause of my problem - I get hellish screeching from my PAS pretty much all the time at low speeds / low engine revs. Used to be this only happens when near full lock, so it is getting worse. With the car idling, when I turn the...

whatever you do, make sure it's not a Euroflo... I just put on a mild steel back box and it's louder than the one I took off that had a massive hole in it. Taking it back as soon as I get another. Can anyone vouch for the eurocarparts standard back box - made by react?

I f**king love this forum - my lights were stuck on permanent after the car came back out the garage, searched the forum and lo and behold, followed the on off on off advice and problem fixed. Saved days of pain going back and forth to the garage to get them to look at it. Well done cliosport...

Thanks folks, good to know. Garage will take the head off next week so I'll know more by then.

Aye up, Something has gone wrong with my cam belt... tensioner or something has gone, so I´m looking at the possibility of getting a new engine for my ph2 172 vs. replacing the internals of the one I´ve just shagged. How hard are these to come by?? and what would everyone think is a...

http://www.electrical-shopping.com/ Price match - didn't occur to me, excellent idea! Cheers, Chinaski

Anyone every used these guys? Or know them? Looking to buy a telly and they have a good price - would be helpful if anyone can vouch for them. Cheers, Chinaski

OK, simple question - before I spend my hard earned, anyone have experience of the difference between these two? - Comet currently doing the 5520 40" for £479 and cheapest I can find the for 6100 is £549 delivered. Main issue for me is the refresh rate - 5520 is 100Hz, 6100 is 200Hz - would I...

I rate it 4/5

Can of vimto rolled under the pedal?

Perfect, cheers.

Holla, Going to be taking my bumper off tomorrow - does anyone have any pics of what I should find behind it? There is a low res one on the fubar guide, but I was hoping to see something with a bit more detail. ph2 172 or 182. Much obliged.

You want to be in here mate http://outlet.euro.dell.com/Online/InventorySearch.aspx?c=uk&cs=ukdfh1&l=en&s=dfh&brandid=7&fid=1212 Dell's factory outlet FTW - I just got one of those Inspiron 15R, i3 processor, 4Gb ram, 500Gb HD for 329 quid. Still advertised on telly as 429 for 3Gb version...

^^ True enough Thank you for pointing that out... I like how you have been able to take my position and render it wasted with your insightful counter argument.

No, I'm not the Stig, not the current one anyway ;) I know I'm onto a loosing battle on a clio forum saying the clio is anything other than perfect in all shapes and sizes, but sometimes you have to take the blinkers off people. The OP is choosing between a cup or standard one... do you think...

It is I am I do Drama!!

OK, whatever, moral of the story is a standard ph2 mk2 172 handles like a blimp where the steering wheel is connected to the wheels by some kind of spongy phlegm-like substance until you change the springs and it becomes ace... at least in my experience anyway. Loving my clio now - didn't before.

Clue might be in why Renault felt the need to offer the cup packs on standard 172's... the standard suspension was too soft (again, imo) for a hot hatch. Don't recall any other hot hatches having uprated suspension as an option 10 years ago?? To be fair, I thought the same of the 306 when I...

If you get a 172, factor in £150 for a set of eibach sportlines, they turn a s**t handling car into an awesome one. I can't tell you how disappointed I was when I first got my clio... Wallowy unresponsive and totally anti climatic. Fitted new springs at the weekend and wehey, world of difference...

glad you got it sorted chap, missus said she didn't have the F&F deal avail at the moment so sounds like you got the best deal going.

my missus works for sky - they do have friends and family deals, and a code sounds about right - to set it up, the sky employee enters their details and those of the new customer - and that's the catch, the new account has to be from someone who hasn't had sky installed in their house for the...

That's not a car...

Is this not also accompanied by the airbag warning light? (which incidentally I have at the present time - which I can turn off by wiggling the wires under the driver seat).

Don't pay too much attention to the above mate, I had the same issue as you and I fixed it after trawling through this and other forums. Yes, the SERV light can and does come on on it's own. This happens in either of 2 cases that I've heard about: 1) if your engine oil is low as posted above...
