I read somewhere that clio's will run a bit rough for the first few min's untill the engine has gone over to 'closed loop'. Whatever that means!

I have a 05 182 and the car was recall for a potentially dangerous windscreen wiper motor. Said they can over-heat, however my car wasn't affected and wasn't replaced.

Yeah you should use vpower! Renault have no fiancial gain by asking you to use it so if they say use it, use it! As with your light coming on, i found mine to be an upflow oxygen sensor and a decat.

26 and 182 FF. Had it brand new at 21 which was 2500 grand a year to insure!

Yeah ok i'll see what i can, Also I'd really like to try a rolling road day too! You ever done one? Do they have a meeting in the Wiltshire area for one? Ben

Yeah i'd say top engine mount. On my 3rd now!

Yeah sonnds good, let me know where and when. I think i could ronud up a couple of guys with 172's. Have you done the Rat Trap dash yet?

My 182 did the same sort of thing, temp would drop down and the car would go back to fast idle! If i rev'ed it hard the car would run fine for about 500 miles or so, however since i had it re-mapped it hasn't done it again!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys, I'll try and get some pics on this weekend but for now it Artic blue with both cup packs. Did have to change the front spliter for a carbon one from k-tec as i hit a fox (quite hard) and its cheaper than a standard one from Renault, buts cosmetically its as it...

Hey Guys I'm Ben brought my Clio 182 4 years ago and i've just started to modify it for track days. Thought i'd log on to get the inside info on how to do it properly. Took her to the Nurbergring this year and decided that new breaks would be a great starting point, so if anyone knows a good...
