Driving home from work yesterday, engine temperature suddenly shoots up and STOP lights up on the dash. Managed to pull over safely, pop bonnet open and realise there is NO coolant and the fan is doing overtime. Luckily there was a shop nearby so stuck a 2L bottle of water in crawled home (2mins...

Agreed, absolutely love them. Well chuffed I opted for them.

Cheers mate, I have no idea if I'm honest lol. My mate just said he'd got a new camera with a wide angled lense thingy, so I let him take a few snaps, he is only young and has just started a photography course at college :) The above pic looks mental, I will pass it onto him for advice :)

Another one...

After lowering it on Eibach Sportlines and giving it a clean over the weekend, I made use of my mates new wide angled lens and got a quick snap. Rather pleased with how it's looking at the moment :)

Yer after abit more searching i've discovered the apex's are supposed to be awful, so think i'm just going to pay abit more and go for the sportlines

Turned out work car park yesterday and heard a loud 'PING' noise, got out had a look round couldn't see anything, so drove carefully home (only 1mile away). Took the car to my local garage for peace of mind to discover one of my springs (standard 182 cup suspension) had snapped clean in half...

Re: Anyone game for a meet in blackpool?? I'd have come along if I'd have seen this thread :(

Whoops, didnt get chance to come back online and I didnt know there was one :( I need to check the forums more!!

Fixed :) Cheers lads

Should of said, yer the dash. Do I take the switch off? Or the unit that surrounds the traction control and light dimmer aswell? cheers

My Air con has stopped working :( The fans & blowers all work, but I am getting no cold air when AC is turned on the coldest setting. Usually you can hear a noise/change of engine tone when the Air con is activated however I am not getting anything when AC is pressed. It's as if the AC isn't...

My cruise control button isn't sticking in place, so when I press it I get 'SET' on the trip displaying and the green clock icon shows, but then it pops back out and the green icon goes. Cruise works if I hold the button down, which is obviously no good! After a search on here I believe the...

I have this little rattle but at exactly 2k rpm, but seems to go when the car has warmed up after 5/10mins :S

You did? Havent put any pics of it on Facebook mate? haha

No it's not?

Not spotted me yet Ryan :)

Ahh ok, isnt the downstream responsible for fueling though? Meaning if there was infact a fault with the upstream sensor, the car would then over fuel? Or am I wrong? :lol:

Cheers lads, I have read it could be the lambda sensor. Out of interest what would swapping the 2 sensors around do? (Genuine question, sorry I don't know much about engines etc). Also interested as to what the actual problem with the lambda sensor is? Just wear and tear? Or does a decat...

Having searched the forums i've not got the exact answer I'm looking for. The 182 i've just bought previously had a decat fitted with Milltek exhaust system, triggering the Emissions Light on dash as per usual. The previous owner said the decat was a little loud, so he got rid and put a cat...

Thanks for the welcome lads... oh :(

Cheers lads :)

I was in your situation last month mate. I went for a 182 because I preferred the dual exhausts, whereas the 172 looks a bit like an everyday clio :)

Ace.

My car has Factory Fitted Sat Nav and although this works perfectly, my radio reception is awful. After searching the forum I've come to a conclusion it may be the aerial base unit. However Renault want £80. Will the below fit mine? Looks identical, but has come off a Megane. Asked the guy on...

My 182 has the factory sat nav also :D

Having problems with mine also mate. After a bit of searching I think the aerial base unit needs replacing, although sourcing one that is compatible with my Factory Fitted Sat Nav is proving a difficult task! :(

Anyone have a part number for the aerial base unit which is compatible with my sat nav? Looked on eBay, but they're all the standard aerial, not surprising as only 42 182's came with the Factory Fitted sat nav! Alos does nayone have any good websites for Renault parts? Thanks in advance :)

Just bought a clio 182 which didn't come with a headunit. So I purchased a Pioneer HU, linked it all up fine etc, all works except I get no radio signal whatsover, the connection isn't loose as I tested it all before I shoved it back into place. Popped it round to the local car audio place near...

Well that's a bit of a disappointing answer :( Was hoping it would be the same as my dad's beemer which does exactly what I want mine to do. I suppose I have Renault and he has a BMW though lol!
