    Modify 182 Cup dampers for non cup

    Do you not think I would have done that? Besides now I have them and they are "stiffer" than non cups I'm asking the question can they be modified to fit

    Modify 182 Cup dampers for non cup

    Evening all, I ordered shocks without measuring the bolt spacing. Turns out I don't own a cup like I expected despite having the spoilers, wheels and splitter. So I'm now stuck with two cup front dampers. Can I modify the bolt spacing to fit? Ive read that if I drill out the top hole on the...

    Changing front dampers 182 cup

    Thank you for the quick replies. Tbh I didn't think about putting both sides of the car in the air. Did you use spring compressors?

    Changing front dampers 182 cup

    Evening all, Firstly sorry if this has been asked before but I am at my wits end with my car tonight. Managed to get the old damper off very easily, but when trying to replace the new one I just can't get it to fit to put the bolts through. I've tried jacking up the hub and spring compressors...

    Locking Wheel Nut

    Halfords do a kit or any other auto factors. Put the socket over the bolt, whack it with a hammer till it grips and undo. That's what I did, didn't take too long.

    The Clio Died

    Piece of cake to change. Mine did it not that long ago, just didn't want to start. Battery voltage fine. Did all sorts of checks. Only thing left was the crank shaft sensor. Picked up a new one for £18 at GSF. Touch wood hasn't failed yet. Easy to fit, remove air box and airfeed. Literally sits...

    MAJOR running/fuelling issues, please help me!

    I was having starting issues. Looks like it was my crank sensor, took it off and it was covered in grease and dirt. No starting issues for the time being at least. Have you checked your coil pack?
