Hello, Looking at replacing the wishbone on the FF cup. Looking at Renparts but also seen pattern ones on eBay. Anyone had any experience with them? https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F151091097604

Hello Tried searching but didn't find an answer. I know 182 cup packed cars run different wishbone which Renault now only sell for all cars. But I'm after replacement and you cagey replacement no genuine for £70 instead of £140 from Renault parts direct. But do they have the same castor?

Ok so the engine light has started to flash now when driving, mainly when at idle in traffic, lights or on the drive. Check and their are no fault codes. Attached is a live 02 log using RSTuner. I'm thinking the pre cat O2 sensor is fubar as at one stage it never dropped below 400mv. Also took...

Sorry for another manifold to cat thread. I've been suffering from this for a good while now. Last summer I fitted a new kit from renault and it's been fine up until the other month were now if blows when under heavy load. This evening I got the car on the ramps but can't see anything obvious...

Any tips? Mine is rock solid. :( Trying to replace the ball joints. Got the nut off no problem. Just trying to get the bolt out.

Ok the steering on my 182 doesn't feel right. It seems very keen to change direction when going over bump, white lines etc. also when pressing on you have to fight to keep the wheel straight. At the same time the steering feels floaty. Sorry only way I can describe it. I checked the steering...

Left work this evening only to find the exhaust blowing :( On inspection the cat fitting bracket has come away. Now looking at the manifold the nut and bolt hole is not a complete circle. Is this as per design or has it rotted? Pictures to show what I mean.

Ok I'm trying to understand some logs I took recently. They were logged using dashcommand and a 3rd gear run from low 2000rpm up at wide open throttle. MAP sensor. I'm confused on why the figure is low upto 2500rpm then shoots up to just below 1bar. I would of thought it would have been just...

HELP! So so fitting my new janspeed cat back to my wife's 182, the center mount bolt snapped :( Drilled it out and ordered some m10 bolts. Tried tapping a new thread but just can't get it to catch and cut. Any ideas what to do next?

Currently playing with the above to log engine sensors. I've got engine speed, speed, MAP, O2 sensors, short/long term fuel trim, ECT, IAT, spark advance working. Anyone got any non clip obd software working to show knock sensor and MAF? Or does anyone know the PID numbers for them? Thanks

Ok got a miss fire on cylinder 2 according to the diagnostics. Swapped plug 2 (closest gearbox) with cylinder 4 (next to it). Well I think that's the order :) Still no joy. Just replaced the coil pack. Still the same. So began to unplug the injectors. Each one makes the engine drop and when...

It's a 182 with cup suspension. Got the old rod off no problem. New ones on however how the frack do you get the boot over the rack so you can put the cable tie on? Oh and £42 for a track rod end and you don't even get the nut. Had to cut the old one off :( Help appreciated :)

Any tool recommendations? Tried a few motor factors and only one had one but it was £16.

Hello, noticed today that the exhaust on the 182 is hanging low by the cat. Is their any brackets around here that could of failed? I've fitted new rear and centre in the past and it still never managed to hang to low at the rear. Now its sitting low by the cat :(

Apart from the dealers. Is their anywhere else you can get them from for a 182 with cup packs?

Got picked up on the last MOT and I must admit the steering doesn't seem it's best. Seems a little more slack when turning right. Today I jack the passenger side up and tried rocking the wheel side to side. Their did seem a little play. Same test on the drivers side I found a lot more play...

Over the past few months I've noticed a lumpy (more than normal) idle and also very hesitant at low revs. Only lasts for about a minute or so then it's like a switch has just been flicked and then it's back to normal. Any ideas? Have noticed every now and then it doesn't fire up on the first...

Hello, The heater on my wifes 2004 clio 182 decided to not work on friday. Symptoms are: Blowers is stuck on full. First thought this would be the resistor pack. Blower is only putting out hot air. So does this sound like this...

Any one in the merseyside area have any old plugs from a 172/182 I could borrow? Trying to rule out if the new plugs I've fitted are dodgy. I've binned the other ones :(

Hello, After some help please. Carried out a oil, oil filter, coolant and plug change on my wifes 2004 Clio 182. Filled up and took it out for a spin last night. All fine. This morning the idle was very rough. Tried to pull out the street and the engine light came on and it was struggling to...

What a pain. Can't seem to budge it. Just snapped a nylon strap wrench tying to remove it. It's made nonimpact apart from crushing it a little. Also discovered 3 snapped bolts on the top part if the inlet manifold and also one of the bolts for the fuel rail guard is snapped. Oh what fun :(

Hello, I was wondering if someone can help. Discovered today that we have a leak in the boot. After looking further it looks like the boot lid isn't align'd properly. The boot lid does have a dent on the right hand side (previous owner) so guess this might have caused the miss alignment. Is...

Clio's due a brake fluid change and I'm in need of a new Ezzi Bleeder. Then I stumbled across these Speedbleeders in the state. Quick google found http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/Motorsport/Braking/Brake_Bleeders/Goodridge_Speed_Bleeder/1711/3680 Seems like a really handy/easy solution...

Hello was hoping someone can help. The other month the Clio started to make a whining noise. Not sure but it could be coming from the rear of the car. Originally I thought it could be a wheel bearing. This evening a decided to see if it was. So jacked up each wheel and spun it round. Now the...

Was hoping for people's comments on this. Was looking on whitelines website the other day and noticed they recommend zero toe at the front and around 1mm of toe in either side at the rear. I get the impression a few people had played about with this so was looking to see what people thought...

What should the Caster be for a 182 FF CUP suspension pack be? Had the wifes 182 FF CUP packed alignment checked today and its showing 2.51 left, 2.59 right. Is this right?

Anyone else had this problem? Basically both the driver and passenger wing mirrors shake slot when driving. Any ideas what it could be? The previous owner had some blind spot mirrors fitted. I have since removed them but no improvement.

Looking for some help. Got a 182 and the exhaust tail pipes are hanging low. I've replace the two rear mounts as this sorted are last Clio however this time it's not made much improvement. Looking at the new mounts it looks like theirs more weight in the passenger side mount compared to the...

Take one well loved Renaultsport 182. Add a bus and this is what you get :mad: Both not too happy at the moment :( This is my wifes car. She's always wanted one and we managed to get her one 6 months ago. We spent a few quick since she's had it. Cambelt/Aux belt change, new rear...

Hello. Got a set of Koni sports that need rebuilding. Not planning on doing it yet (not fitted to the car) but later on in the year. Do anyone on here have recommendations on who to use? Getting ideas at the moment. Cheers
