Recently my exhaust on my 172 has started making a rattling noise on the over run when coming down from high ish revs... Got told that its due to possible loose brackets & fixings as the car is now on 70k & it's still all the original exhaust. Going to replace it soon for a ktec.
But now the...
Decided to change the alloys on my 172 as my current set are looking a bit tired.
But my issue is that I just forked out best part of £300 on tyres all round so want them to be able to be transferred onto the new alloys I decide to go for.
Current Tyre size. 195/45/16
option 1. (So far)...
Few days ago a humming/drone started coming from the rear my 172, so got a mate to check it out & he diagnosed it as the bearing. Am I able to just get a new bearing or is it integral to the disc like my mate thought it might be?
cheers.
I have a Iceberg Silver 172 with currently standard silver wheels, opinions on what colour I should spray my wheels & diamonds...
Keep changing my mind between a shade of grey with black diamonds all round,
or black wheels with dark grey diamonds all round.
People have any examples. or seen...
Today I was driving home and my 172 developed a fast knocking noise from the front left... It only seems to happen above 40mph & when I lift off the accelerator. Any ideas?
Cheers
My box of goodies ready for tomorrow.... will be spraying my wheels (currently silver) dark grey & painting my callipers (currently red) blue see attached photo for how the car is now, will upload finished result tomorrow. Can't wait to see how they turn out. Any tips from people that have...
I like the look of the KTR Recessed Supersport exhaust, but all I need is a backbox & new hangers as that is all that is broken on the exhaust...
I was just wondering if anyone had done something similar or if it is even possible to fit a after market backbox to the exsisting standard parts...
Last night I hit a pot hole (why do we pay bloody road tax?) and cracked a section of my under tray underneath the passenger side fog light, I was just wondering if I need to replace the whole under tray or if it comes in sections as that is the only damage, also where is the best/cheapest place...
All my lights on the rear of my clio 172 work fine except the reversing/parking lights?
I have changed both bulbs so that cant be the issue, Im just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what it could be ?

Recently I've noticed more & more cars with steeles, IMO i think they look awful on 99% of the cars I have seen, I don't see the appeal of this current trend? enlighten me? Is it just an essex thing or is it nationwide?

I have just purchased the fabia front splitter for £12, seems like a good deal after doing my research on here, I could go through ten or so for the price of a Renault or KTR one. :rasp:
I am planning to spray my grilles, & fog lights surrounds gloss black to smarten up the front end.
But my...
Recently I have been hearing a slight knocking, doesn't sound like anything major, just if I hit a slight bump, or go round a corner at speed, every now and again I hear this knock from the rear...
At first I thought It might be the spare wheel being slightly loose and jumping about but I...
I have decided to spray both my grilles, fog light surrounds & back bumper strip on my 172 as im fed up of putting bumper gel on them and them looking naff after a day or two, but i'm unsure what colour so thought I'd ask for opinions...
I have a Iceberg silver clio with bright blue painted...
Week off work next week so going to spend a decent day detailing her (my172), after this crappy week of weather.
Also going to spray my badges & bullets.
The bonnet on the clio 172 that I have just purchased, doesn't seem to quite aligned perfectly straight, the the gap between the bonnet and the front wheel arch is marginally larger than that on the other side. Its not a massive issue but was just wondering if anybody has any ideas why, or even...
Looking to lower my clio 172 ph.2 but cant afford coilovers at this moment in time, looking to lower her by about 30mm-40mm, need opinions on springs & accessories etc so that the ride doesn't become 'bouncy' and compromise the handling etc.
Thanks

I want to spray my fog surronds gloss black (too match my grilles) & I was wondering how I remove the surrounds so I can properly prep them without masking them on the car.
All advice appreciated.
Thanks
