Later in the day is when I'm around K'borough in Black 182.

This is exactly what was happening to my car.:eek: I've only had it since Dec 09, and it cam e with spanking Federal sporty tyres on it.... However they are utter cr@p. Really dangerous overtaking. It was getting to a point where I didn't want to boot it round country lanes because is was a bit...

Ok Remember my thread a couple of weeks ago aboit my car accelerating all over the place? Well new tyres have completely solved the problem. DO NOT EVER PUT FEDERAL TYRES ON A CLIO SPORT. They are completely cr@p and will get you into trouble on the road. Thanks

I had mine done recently on my 182. Took most of the day. But the thing is with the 172 or 182 is the space availiable in the engine bay. Very tight.

Or if you have cr@ppy front tyres like me.

so it sounds all kinda normal then. The 182s torque steer like a b**ch. Well its MOT next week and Ive asked the garage to see if there is anything untowards. And, yes, it does sem to tramline at the faintest dip or bump in the road. Come to think of it... even white lines and crisp packets...

Checked tyre pressures-all ok. Tracking done.

Yes, as I said, I have had it done TWICE. Thanks for everyones suggestons, I will see what I can do. If anyone knows anything else, then I'd like to know. Cheers.

Ok, When I accellerate hard in my 182cup, the car seems to skitter round a quite a lot, and keeping it in a straight line is a bit of a challenge. I dont think this os just torque steer, right? Could it be loose/worn track rod ends? Driveshaft problems? crappy tyres (they are Federals on the...

I have an ISOFIX seat in my Clio 182. It is the simplest thing ever to fit. The seat has 2 fixing points you line up with the isofix bar on the car, then slot it it. Its simple and really safe. If you buy your child seat from somewhere like mothercare, they will be able to tell you if it is...
