    Suspension bolt size?

    I priced these from Renault, and Alex is about right in his prices. Remember that you will need the nuts for the fronts aswell. In the end up scrubbed mine clean with a wire brush and copper slipped them to death. I have no plans of getting them off again during my ownership, and neither...

    Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! HELP

    Re: Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! Thanks Martin. I'll try that. With regards to the track rods, thinking back, I think we just slotted then into the whole and then wizzed the nut up with a nut runner. Are you saying they need pressing into...

    Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! HELP

    Re: Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! Nice thought Gaverick, not thought of that. I'll try it. I had some M14 washers (3mm thick) machined down at work to 28mm OD and fitted those under the top plate (on top of the 27mm spacer nut thing) after...

    Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! HELP

    Re: Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! Dogbone changed by Renault two weeks ago. All we did was change the suspension! Sounds like its coming from the top mounts, both sides. No vibration, no knock through the steering wheel. Just sounds like a...

    Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! HELP

    Re: Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! OK The 27mm nut is wound right down but the large rubber bush supplied with the top mount kit still moves around a bit. I hear this is normal. If you grab the top mount from under the bonnet you can turn...

    Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! HELP

    Re: Very annoyed - rebuilt whole suspension with new mounts and now I have a knock?! If you see it you will see nothing! Everything is tight as to be expected, nothing stand out as in fitted wrong so I'm truly stumped. What are you first thoughts mate? Any thought is a good thought!

    Put a decat on your cars! What a difference

    Ain't no one flaming me fella, believe it. Logical answer chip, incidentally peering into my cat showed it to be immaculate. The car has genuinely pepped up for me. It was a well worthwhile component and I am chuffed with it.

    Budget tyres for 182

    Kumho KU39 Sport LE are quite superb. I had them on my E60 525i Sport (to rid the horrible runflats) and currently have them on my DC2 Integra. I honestly can't really fault them. Some pals have done BMW track days aswell without issue. The PS3's on my 182 are however superb.

    Put a decat on your cars! What a difference

    I got a new genuine Renault clamp and fitted it with some Wurth exhaust sealant. Whether it works or not I have no idea but will find out! Imprezaworks, sorry fella not having a dig, just posting up my opinion for other community members to read/learn. Apologies if you took it the wrong way...
