right, i know how intellectual you lot are so thought i'd ask a little question. my sister has a VW polo, 1.2 sport (i think) the 3 cylinder one. and she was on the motorway when it 'blew up' oil pissing out everywhere all up the back of the car and over the engine bay. had to get it towed back...

Gave the 182 a clean today! and after a few little mods thought i'd take some pics too!!

I bought a laptop and took out their 3 year insurance on it. has anyone claimed with PC world? i was told they would replace my model with one of the equivalent value at the time it broke. anyone know exactly what it covers? the guide things vague cheers Dave

Done a search but can't really seem to find much info. Had a drink last night with some cliosport guys and brakes came up, just wondered when they should be changed? mine have a slightly 'scored' feel with about a 1mm lip on the edge. does this mean they need changing? I have a 182 by the way...

Righty, had the day off and its nice and sunny so thought i'd remove the valve. Was a pretty easy and satisfying job to do tbh! took it for a quick blast and it seemed to be a bit more responsive, going to evaluate it over the week though. was a bit annoyed that it still whistles as i thought...

Right!! another new mod so another write up! lol had my matched inlet fitted with my local mechanic today. firstly i'd like to say that craig (stan*) of 'advanced powertrain developments'(APD) offered me excellent service, and was always quick to reply to emails and give help. the workmanship...

Right my inlet arrived yesterday fresh from APD. took it to my mechanic today, and he said 'oooh thats a big job' :rolleyes: and doesnt know if he wants to get involved with it. i have heard on here that its not too bad? can anyone give any advice as to the time it will take and what needs to be...

A quick question....!! My new reworked inlet arrived today and the gasket was forgotten from the order. I have it booked in tomorrow to be fitted, but will i need the gasket or can it be got from renault without ordering(if so how much), or is the seal ok to be siliconed (sp?)? Or shall i...

Right! i have never waxed my car before, have polished some before but have never really had consistant results, some come up very well and on some you can really see the strokes of where it has been applied if you get that?! and have always been scared of doing my car becuase it already has a...

If anyone know's about MOT's could they please look at this thread... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=203888 about the exhaust mount, i've had a Milltek fitted today and the guy said that because it didnt use a mount it will fail?? is this right thankyouuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Right guys. I had the Milltek fitted today, and it does look really good, and sounds nice too with a noticable improvement over standard power. but to be honest all thats in the back of my mind as there are a few issues i wonder if people can help with - - - 1. it is low in the left side...

Right, i've had a quick search but nothing really came up. I changed my HU a while back (got a JVC one) but the guy from halfrauds said there are no stalk adaptor lead thingys for the 05 on clio 182's? He tried one with a yellow square head (double pin) but the one on the back of my digital...

Does anyone know of any mappers in the london area??! Paul doesnt have any 182 ECU's on exchange :( and Leeds is a bit far to drive! Dont really fancy a group N one...heard they arent all that. Dave

Just wondered if anyones got matched inlets by ap-developments, they are a bit cheaper than angelworks and he has them in stock....rather than waiting! Anyone got any views? Alsooooo rekon its worth waiting for this new thing BenR's bringing out soon?! I'm confused on what to do! Cheers, Dave :D

Saw a 182, black with a private plate, L4 (dno the rest) in the Macy d's carpark in north cheam. Anyone's? Dave

Just a quick one. Are the clutches on the 2005 182's self adjusting? cos mines suddenly gone to the top of the pedal and i sort of have to hold the clutch in one position to pull away then let it up full rather than doing it gradually. Just wondered if anyone else had this or how to get over it...

Hi, Sorry to post another topic about an inlet manifold! but i want one done, and was just wondering if they are hard to fit as i was thinking about doing the exchange service as im miles away from anywhere that does them (surrey). But i'm not really clued up about how to fit the inlet/take...
