    Anyone know where the horn realy is on a 182?

    if the horns not working its either the horn itself, connectors onto the horn or the wires(red/black i think) on the clock spring behind the top steering column cover snapped off.

    Newbie with dash illuminations

    you might find the warranty work is transferable, i.e another garage closer to you could do the work and bill the warranty company?

    Exhaust drone got louder since i put new tyres on.

    if there used tyres they might have worn funny. if they are used tyres spin the tyre and look at the tread as you spin it, look across the tread and if its bumpy and lumpy on the tread itself then they will drone like a wheel bearing. see it all the time!!

    Bonnet won't open

    can you see the catch through the grille? if you can get a long screw driver on the arm and push it to release the bonnet, have you checked the lever inside the car to see if the cable has come off or if the lever is damaged here the cable goes?????

    help with new steering wheel

    £80+ vat from renault 2 weeks ago for the clock spring and an hour to fit it(new ones come with a extra plug for cruise control) make sure the rotary part of the unit is centred otherwise it rips it apart inside . have you tried cancelling the airbag fault code after fitting the resistor? the...

    Top mount question

    gap between the top mount top cap and the suspension turret is normal mate, mine has approx 10mm. the creaking was solved on mine by fitting the spacer kit on the top mounts, if you search on here some peps sell them and the dimensions are on here so you could get some made by an engineering...

    Replacing Drivers Side Outer CV Boot

    bottom ball joint can be a swine sometimes, but you only need to take the caliper of to give more room to swing the hub outward, the bottom ball joint,hub nut and un-clip abs wiring. lubricate the cone to ease sliding the boot over the cone and dont use cable ties to hold the boot on coz it will...

    steering wheel change problems

    sounds like you need an airbag simulator like you say a resistor, that would give you the airbag and serv light. check the clock spring wires aswell coz the wires always break on these and i think the angle sensor is part of the clock spring and that would bring the esp and abs light on if it...

    fault codes any ideas

    the second sensor does do some thing but doesnt affect performance, it sends a signal back to the ecu with info on how the cats performing. so if you swap them you might end up with another code e.g p0420 cat performance below threshold. testing the sensor is the best way to check its faulty but...

    P0136, P0225 and P0115

    sounds like normal 1.2 16v problem to me- the plug(with metal cover) on the ecu at the back of the inlet manifold is the one to look at, the glue renault use on the wires melts and causes a bad connection to the ecu. with the plug removed you will see the glue stuck all over the ecu pins. the...
