Took the calliper off and managed to compress the piston although it was extremely stiff and took some doing but all of a sudden it seemed to free up, heat build up seems to be greatly reduced now so hoping its helped. Dust boots seem in pretty good condition although it has worked loose in one...
I seem to be having this problem at the moment with my front passenger side, noticed the piston was very stiff while fitting new pads and disks recently but applied some grease and hoped it would be okay but following a longish drive today the wheel in question is clearly getting considerably...
Cheers jack, I'm quite pleased with them except the tyres are all in pretty bad condition but having a full set of kumho ecsta le sports put on tomorrow!
Have been refurbishing the 182 wheels over the last three days on my breaks
As you can see they were in pretty bad condition
But now look like this, pretty happy with the results!
Having four new tyres fitted tomorrow! Nice!
Very interesting, thanks for the link. Reading alot of conflicting opinions, would like to give the air box ago perhaps just for a comparison but wheels need sorting first! Does anyone know where some kind of heat proofing could be aquired, I've messaged ramair and they said they don't make any...

The wheels I'm going to replace with the originals or perhaps some speed lines?

Thanks Ron. Forgot to mention above but thanks to George@RTR_Parts for the front disks, pads and fitting advice. Great service, price and quality, cheers mate.
Hey there, yeah not sure what the deal is with the pictures, if you click on them you can open in a new tab and they seem to load in flikr but they don't show above. Have heard the Skoda splitter is a good option, will look into it. Agree with the wheel opinion also, think they'll be coming off...
Hi there,
New 182 owner here having recently purchased one following a lengthy search for my dream Clio. Not generally into the whole social media online chat kind of thing but felt I'd like to contribute having enjoyed reading through details of other members vehicles. Have found this site...
