Can u organise a ph1 172 throttle body?

[BoomOne]

Hey guys, looks like I am going to need a new one of these.

Renault here are asking for +- £230 and a 21 day wait to get it from france.
I dont have the option of using the scrappers as there are about 20 of these cars in the country.

If anyone can organise or even tell me where I can order one from, that would be much appreciated.

Part no is 8200053557, or so renault here say.

Could always buy a single Jenvy item.

Ye, but I'm worried about buying a secondhand one and it not working or becoming faulty quickly

Thanks dudes

anyone know where to get the jenvey single TB from?

What's wrong with your one mate??? Mine was sticking like crazy, if that's the case, it's just a matter of getting a good lubricant, (not wd40) I used silicone spray and it cleared the problem for over a year.

 

[BoomOne]

ye sticky is the right word I guess. Revs are not consistant on idle and keep getting stuck and I have to blip the throttle to get them to drop down. I did give it a clean and probably not the correct lube, but on close inspection of the tb, it seems like the butterfly is getting caught or stuck at the bottom and the pin operating the butterfly seems a little unstable.. hoping this is my issue if i replace it.

Have you replaced the throttle cable, it could be over stretched / sticking...

Sounds like the throttle cable to me... very common on the Ph1s, and a quick £20 fix.

na i havent done the cable yet. is there any way of telling its the cable without replacing it?

 

[Gray]

only by removing and measuring / comparing to a new cable...

bugger.. is it an easy job?

The outer cable corrodes from the inside, causing the inner cable to 'stick'. You can replace the whole lot without too much bother, much easier if you remove the front wheel arch.

Jenvy used to have them on their website. Not sure if there any good etc etc

IIRC they were / are a slightly bigger port? You'd need to check their site tho mate. Think a lad on here called Stoodie? used to have one

Ah cool. I'll see if I can source one, but there are none in SA at the moment, so will have to look elsewhere

I think with the jenvey one, you have to run standalone management or get rstuning to remap the ecu, bit of an expensive option
