Hi Guys
My 182 is idling pretty rough.
I've fitted a lightweight flywheel and decat etc so i'm expecting it to be harsh in all honesty, but the other day I got an error in "Knock Circuit 1 fault". Recently when cold with my foot to the floor it bogs down, feels like a two-stroke engine when...

Hi guys
My gearbox sounds like it is on the way out; it makes a whine/ scuffing noise at low revs and only when under none or low load.
Under full load it's quiet, I put the car on axle stands and put it in third, the sound seems to be exaggerated compared to when driving but does this sound...
Hi guys
Recently had my gearbox out for a clutch change. Now I can notice a quiet whine/scuffing noise from the gearbox area at low revs and only when coasting down. If I only touch the throttle it goes away.
Any ideas?
I've just fit a new bolt on my car, took it off after a couple days to redo the timing, the bolt had stretched to 53mm.
The Renault manual says to renew the bolt if it's stretched over 49.1mm so I got a new bolt.
Just measured the brand new bolt from Renault and its 52mm!
Is the 49.1mm figure...
Hi
I've recently fitted the AC delete kit from Pure Motorsport, since the AC system has been removed the engine light comes on, I've plugged in my RS tuner and it's showing the AC pressure sensor isn't working, which is good because it's not there anymore lol.
Does anyone know the resistance...
Hi guys,
Im currently carrying out a cambelt change on my 182, it's all pretty straight forward and I'm using the Renault tools.
I have slaken the pulleys off to tension the belt, then you tighten the pulley locking tool to allow you to tighten the pulleys back up, however, everytime I try to...
Hi Guys
Took my engine out to investigate some oil leaks and found this:
I always suspected it to be the main oil seal but now I'm not sure if its the sump as well? I've got the bottom end gasket set so I can replace both anyway.
But my main question is that I have major amounts of...
Engine's coming out and this lots going in!
Wish me luck!
10 points if anyone can tell me whats wrapped in the black bag marked "fragile", there is a clue on the table...
Hi Guys
I'm taking the engine out over the weekend to get some work done so the gearbox is coming out with it for a new clutch etc.
My question is can you just leave the driveshafts in the hub, undo the balljoint and track rod end and pull the whole lot out the gearbox that way?
The reason...
Hi guys
I am wanting to delete my powersteering from my 182.
I have the PAS delete kit from puremotorsport http://www.pure-motorsport.co.uk/details.php?itemid=158
Will a 1.2 (non electric) rack be ok? I read that some people prefer the electric 1.5 dci rack but apparentley people lose...
Hi guys
My rear (gearbox side) crank seal has a very gradual leak so will be getting replaced along with clutch when the time comes.
Quick question:
Would anyone recommend using an engine assembly paste or should I just slide the new seal in dry?
Is there anything else to it...
I managed to hit a rock on the way home last night while dodging some potholes :dapprove:
I thought I had better check the wheel to make sure, when I spin the wheel and put a screwdriver next to the rim, there is about 4mm of variance in and out (if that makes sense).
The inside of the rim has...
That is the question.
Was thinking of carbon vinyl wrapping my Clio, what's peoples opinions on this?
Leave standard, bonnet, roof or both?
Photoshops below:
Standard
Bonnet
Roof
Or both?
All opinions welcome!
My girlfriend hates it all and I'm torn between...
Hi,
As above, I am refurbing my calipers all round and want to replace the nipples :clown:
Does anyone have the part numbers for the front and back and a rough cost?
On a side note, I would also like new caliper to carrier bolts front and back, any part numbers for them?
Thanks in...
I managed to snap my injector today by gently scraping it with an oil filter wrench lol.
I won't be able to get hold of a new injector for a couple of days, is it ok to run the engine on 3 cylinders for a short trip at low revs? (need to get to work).
I'll disconnect the spark plug...
Hi,
My rear beam is bent and I need a replacement.
Does anybody know if I can use any mk2 Clio beam and swap everything over? (like the brakes, stub axles torsion bar etc) or do I have to use a 182 beam?
The reason I ask is that there a plenty of non- sport beams going cheap.
Thanks...
