As per other thread but need a quick answer. Should a battery of 360amps starting power start my 182?

My 182 has been sitting since July. I have been out the country working. I was home briefly for a few days in September so I turned the car over. It started first time with no issues. I got back home yesterday and tried to get into the car. The central locking wouldn't work. The key was lighting...

It's about time to get some new tyres for the 182. The car is used daily but also for trackdays and weekend hoons. What tyres would you choose? Standard 182 alloys. I'm thinking about giving the Federal RSR trackday tyres a go as a cheaper alternative to R888s. I was going to go for Yoko...

My front passenger side wheel caked in brake dust that I cannot remove. I have soaked it in wonder wheels and it just won't budge. This came about after a track session that is particularly hard on that specific wheel so it will have gotten very hot. Any good tips on how to remove the brake...

As per title, I'm contemplating trading in the 182 for a new/nearly new 200. Are there any good deals to be had at the moment. There doesn't appear to be many dealers with any 200s in stock up my way (not that i can find) so may have to venture down south. Just want to ask on here before...

What pressures do you run on track using road tyres? I have my first outing in the 182 on Saturday and wondering what pressures I ought to run at. Got TR1s up front and bridgestones on the rear. Running 32/30 for normal road use. Was thinking of probably around 24/22 cold on track...

Does anybody know the correct part number for front DS2500 pads for a 182 as I believe there are two numbers?

The airbag light and service light on my 182 keeps coming on and then off again. It is very random and no pattern to it. It comes on for a few minutes then goes off again. No fault code when I plug in my OBD scanner. Any ideas??

Looking for a bit of advice really. My FF 182 has standard central locking and alarm. When I start driving the doors lock themselves. Once I stop and open a door then the central locking unlocks all the doors. However, recently it has started to take quite some time for the central locking to...

Spotted a lovely looking Trophy this morning in Aberdeen. Going over the Bridge just down from Tesco, Danestone. Approx 8.40am. I was in my Artic 182.

I picked up my new FF 182 a few weeks ago but had been too busy workwise to get out in it and get some pictures. I went for a short hoon up the Cairn n Mount. It's a great little hoon in Aberdeenshire. Here are a few pics:

I have seen a recent influx of these coilovers on here recently. Why are people so keen to fit them to their ClioSports? The Clio's got absolutely glowing reviews with regards to it's handling from pretty much every motoring magazine/show worth reading/watching. In my opinion, fitting these...

Just thought I'd add a little update. I had posted up a few threads asking about various cars and gave my opinion on the 182 after test driving one. As can be seen here - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?598192-Looking-at-a-182-tonight-any-advice&p=7992518&viewfull=1#post7992518 I...

Where's the best (read cheapest) place to get a cargo net for my 182. Are there any from other cars that fit?

Picked up my 182 yesterday and just wondering what the recommended tyres pressures are? I had a quick look on the handbook but couldn't find any info on 182's.

As some will know (due to my numerous threads) I am on the hunt for a 182. There have been a few potential candidates to date which have fallen at the last hurdle due to one thing or another. However, I have these 3 firmly in my sights at the moment: 1...

I have been searching for a good while now and have come across this - http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201135413056308/sort/locasc/usedcars/engine-size-cars/2l_to_2-5l/price-to/5000/model/clio/make/renault/radius/1500/postcode/ab219jl/page/3?logcode=p Any thoughts on it? Well...

So i have found a 182 which I am interested in which had its cambelt changed last year, however there is no record of the Aux belt being changed. How likely is it that the timing belt would be changed and not the the Aux belt? What's the rough cost of an Aux belt and tensioner change?

Been scouring PH everyday now trying to find the right 182. Have enquired about a few but nothing much has come of it. I have however just come across this which would appear to tick all the boxes of what I am looking for; Near standard, good service history, recent cambelt & aux change, Both...

Hi folks, first post here. I am looking at buying a Clio sport of some variation. I am going to look at a 182 tonight. This one to be precise - http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/3106996.htm As you can tell, not a lot of details have been offered with the car. The sellers seem a middle-aged...
