I'm pretty sure the PE2 is now out of production? I couldn't find any when I was looking to buy a few months ago. I got Michelin Pilot Sport 3 instead and they're at least as good as the PE2s they replaced and supposed to last longer although I havn't done enough miles to find that out yet.

Thanks. Now I've got them off I've noticed the old offside cable is actually a fraction shorter than the new one I'm about to put on! Was not expecting that! The nearside is a little stretched though. The renault tag is still on the old offside and I can read it says 82002282xx so they...

Part numbers are 8200228260 and 8200228347. Invoice doesn't give any indication what side is which. One is yellow and the other is black and the black one is longer. Any ideas?

Because it was gunged up and incredibly stiff I decided to dismantle this and clean it up. Water had obviously been getting in through the rubber seal and the shaft was pretty rusty. So - out with the emery, cleaned it all up and greased it.... rotates like a good un now. However - I...

I didn't, they arrived in the post like that. The missing chunks don't appear to be in the box either.

Is this likely to cause any issues or not?

That flare is so obviously too small a diameter I'm really surprised that Scorpion doesn't simply change how they manufacture it so they end up with a flare the right size. Scorpion are supposed to be a professional outfit.

Main issue I have is that the windscreen washers remained frozen up even after a 25 mile trip!! That's despite having put in the anti freeze stuff...... Anyone know if u can get a washer/nozzle heater kit for the 182? :(

I thought Sky transmitted a 720p signal and 1080p was only needed if you have Blu Ray or similar.

I have a 182 with the cup suspension and aero pack with 27,500 miles on the clock and if anyone offered me a measly £5,500 for it I'd tell them to take a running jump. :rasp:

Nope.......and what's more it's bleedin cold up here now!

Whilst screwing a front caliper back on to its brake line it jammed momentarily and the connector began to rotate relative to the hose. Is that supposed to happen? :S

Used a combination of the advice offered and all seems OK now.... thanks everyone.

Can the piston actually come off its thread? i.e. can u unscrew it too far?

This was the first one I tried so not sure yet, if no luck with the bleed nipple or some "gentle" persuasion will give up and try the other side to see if it works.
