    182 not starting - Solid red light

    So the 182 has been stood a few weeks, due to the gearbox needing a rebuild, and wasn't used much over the winter. Planning on pulling the gearbox off this weekend, so decided to start the car to make sure everything else was ok. Nope. Will not start. I've got a solid red light on the dash. If...

    Gearbox removal

    So I'm needing to get the gearbox rebuilt on my 182 Cup, is it best to pull the engine and box out the top of the car, or drop the subframe and remove the box only out the bottom. I've not got an engine crane, so would need to factor in renting one for removal and again for installing, so cost...

    Is my gearbox knackered?

    I replaced the fluid a few weeks ago with Red Line MT90 GL4. First proper drive out in it today with the weather being rubbish for so long and lockdown, etc. Didn't notice too much when driving to be honest. But when pulling up onto the driveway there was definitely a new noise I'd not heard...

    RB 182 Cup - keeping this one

    I've been meaning to start a project thread for this car for some time now. I bought the car in March 2018, and it's changed a few times since then in terms of usage as it was originally my only car, replacing a Z4 3.0i. It was then a second car when I bought a MR2 Roadster, but that only last 6...

    Vibra technics gearbox mount doesn't fit?

    So I attempted to change the gearbox mount this morning, with a vibra technics mount. It seemed large when I received it. But didn't think it'd be an issue and it didn't register that it was different to the picture advertised. Anyway, it doesn't physically fit. Can anyone confirm I've...

    Anyone used the new AD08RS yet?

    Realised my AD08R are down to 2mm rear and 3mm front. Not ideal this time of year and explains my grip issues in the wet recently. Has anyone tried the new AD08RS yet? Seems they've changed the compound to to suit new regulations. Only seen a few comments on them up to now, but don't seem that...

    182 CAT options

    I'm currently looking at cat options as i'd like to ditch my decat for a bit. I'm using my 182 to commute to work again now, and will probably be for the foreseeable future. I'm reluctant to buy another second hand 182 cat, as the prices are a bit silly, and there getting old now. So been...

    Ryobi 400Nm Impact Wrench

    I've been looking for a decent cheap impact wrench for working on my car, after having issues removing the pinch bolt on a ball joint this weekend. Then thinking of all the times one would really have come in handy. I do pretty much all my own work on all my cars, except for timing belts. I...

    Part number require for gearbox spring on Clio 182 (No. 23)

    Does anyone know the part number for the spring below numbered 23? Noticed this was missing a while ago, but not got around to replacing it. and after fitting a pms shifter, i've still got more movement than i'd expect, so hoping this might be part of the issue.

    2006 Honda Civic 1.8 EX 5dr

    Selling my wife's old car, as we've replaced it with a mk6 Golf https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202731327563 Ad is a little shitty as it was rushed late last night to get something up before the weekend. Will probably update it at some point this weekend. Open to reasonable offers to shift it.

    182 acceleration and ktec exhaust system videos

    So I recorded the exhaust noise to send to my brother last week. Then one morning on the way to work i decided to record the acceleration to get a better idea of 0-60 times. I figured this would be around the 6.0-6.5 second mark with a good launch. Exhaust is the Ktec Janspeed 2.25 system...

    Dent Removal kits

    As anyone ever tried one of these dent removal kits? I've watched a few videos on Youtube, seems the people selling the equipment get very good results and the DIY'er get varying results. Though some are very optimistic in the dents there trying to pull out.

    Struggling to get into 1st - broken spring?

    Driving home on Friday night, suddenly i couldn't find 1st gear. Every other gear was fine and the car drove normally, so i just used 2nd to pull away. It was late when i got home, so couldn't investigate (plus i was wearing a Tux), but i realised that if i didn't move the shifter all the way...

    Air bag lights and wiring

    Picked up my 182 on tuesday and was told by the previous own that the airbag light was on due to the aftermarket steering wheel and he'd never gotten around to getting it sorted. Car also has Evo 7 Recaro seats and is a geniune 182 Cup, so i believe no seat airbags as standard, but does have...

    Anyone using a non resonated milltek?

    Looking to pick up a cat back system for the 182. I understand the milltek is one of the quieter systems, but would a non resonated system be too loud or drone for a daily commuter? I live on a fairly quiet estate, and my 20 mile commute is probably 70% 40 and 50mph roads, mostly lined with...

    Dent/Crease repair

    Went to view a 182 today, and noticed a crease in the rear quarter panel. It's not deep but is about 12 inches long or so, and goes from just off the rear wheel arch to the under side of the bump strip at about 30 degree angle. I understand this shouldn't be an issue for a paintless dent repair...

    Fancy another Clio again

    I've owned a Clio 182 3 times now. Seems like every time i buy a replacement car after selling one, i'm looking to get back into another Clio shortly after. In between the Clio's i've had; a Diesel Jetta with Hybrid turbo and custom mapping (made around 220bhp) for about 18 months, a 290bhp mk1...

    Contemplating keeping my 182 as a third car

    My 182's been up for sale since i bought myself a Z4 about 2 months ago. I've pulled the RS2 off (Sold), the Treadline seat out, and will be selling off the wheels to put standards back on. But i took the car out last night for a quick spin, and now i really am having second thought about...

    Installing a 182 inlet manifold, need a little help

    I've pulled off the RS2 today, but didn't manage to get finished due to the rain. Anyway, the RS2 only had the two sensors attached, and a single breather from the underside. This runs back to the rear of the engine and into the bulkhead. Looking at the original 182 inlet, i've got three...

    RS Tuner Remap over a custom remap

    My car has a custom remap to suit the RS2, but i'm considering removing it and putting the car back to standard. Obviously i'll need the mapping changed once complete to either the standard map or a remap. Cheapest option looks to be the RS Tuner, as i'll be able to buy a second hand unit...

    Alternator and Aux Belt change

    I think my Alternator is about to pack in.... seems noisy and there is a slight burning smell that appears to be coming from it, or at least in that area. I've looked on Eurocarparts, GSF, etc and there appears to be a 75amp option or a 110amp option. Does anyone know which i'd need on a 05...

    Best set up with RS2

    I've been tempted by the low boost kits on offer, but i've decided i'm going to stick with the RS2. Partly due to the cost and partly due to the issues several people have had (I know several have had no issues or only minor, etc). I also figured i'd just be better off buying a faster car if i...

    My Second 182

    So i sold my BG 182 in August 2014 a couple weeks after my wedding, as i knew i'd need a bigger car in the near future, didn't really want to sell it to be honest but put it up for sale for a bit more than i really expected to get for it and it basically sold within hours of posting it on here...

    Intake manifold fitting

    Where would be the best place to get a full set of bolts for reinstalling the intake manifold, fuel rail and protector? I'm planning on removing my RS2 to sell on. But whilst i've got all the parts i need, I don't have any bolts.

    Uprated Engine/Gearbox mounts

    I need to start thinking about replacing the mounts on my 182. I only bought the car last month, so i don't know how old the mounts are, but there is more movement than i'd like and the engine mount looks fairly worn. Now the car's got a RS2 installed, but has had the bonnet catch modified to...

    Caliper Bolts grinding against Rear disc

    So i changed the rear disc a couple weeks ago on my 182 with genuine disc and pads from Renault, also ordered new spacers and nuts from George. Everything has been fine and i've probably done 6-700 miles on them. Last night i nipped out for a drive to test out my new tyres, and as i was heading...

    Yanoo Shiff shift

    The 182 i bought last month, has one of these installed. I believe it is the 3.0 version. First thing in the morning when it's cold it feels great. However after a half hour drive to work it gradually gets stiffer and stiffer. Basically it's so stiff that i can push the gear stick over when in...

    Mk3 MX-5

    My brother has decided to sell his MX-5 for some reason, I think he's making a mistake personnally, but if anyone is interested it's up on eBay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mazda-MX5-mk3-NC-/122034953873?hash=item1c69d99e91:g:FN4AAOSwbYZXeWxz Not the best ad in the world, but it's a nice genuine...
