I've been toying with the idea for a blanking plate for a while, purely just for noise sake. A few of my buddies have them on their cars and they sound tasty, I helped one guy fit one to his 250 Meg and I liked it but I couldn't help wondering after 45 minutes of screaming, scratched knuckles...

Does anyone had a clue how to turn those damn traffic alerts off. When wife is in the car I have music on and it drives my up the wallll. I've looked around. For any info, looked through renault handbook. I see the traffix icon on the little dash display thing but can't get rid of it. Its a...

So recently my 182 spat out two sparkys the first time I managed to fix it. Replaced with spare ht lead, exactly the same lead. Next day same thing. It split the ht lead. I replaced the lead with a genuine Renault one but not the exact same length lead or "number 2" I used any old lead...

Hi, I think it might be time to leave my little 182. Which sucks but I've been looking around at different cars and for some reason I want to stay with renault. ? I've been thinking about a 197 or a 200. But someone suggested I look at a Megane. Must admit I kind of like the 250 cups. Sort of...

On way home today was driving down the road changed down and rather than revving I heard what sounded one blowing I assumed it was my exhaust or something. But then I noticed check engine light and that the car was Reving it self, then I heard the noise it was making. Sounds a little bit like...

Hi! So I've narrowed it down to these two. But I'm always open to suggestions that may be better /cheaper. But I need mounts, and I'd like to be as low as I can get. I don't want sliders really people don't get in back of my car that often. And if they do they'll have to live with crushed legs...

So noticed this more today. While my car is cold, until it warms up, the car is idling at like 1.2k - 1.7k. And it's revving its self too. Is it just something to expect on these engines? Cheers ?

This afternoon was fun. Changed my exhaust quite the fiddle. Everything went well. Removed the shock bolts to lower the axel so I could get the old exhaust out. All back together. Just to put the shock bolts back. Greaaaaat. I've not managed to move it. Seems pretty stuck in there. I've...

I'm not talking about the center mount or the two rears. I mean the 3rd exhaust hanger the one behind the rear mounts that looks like set of handlebars. Is there an uprated version I can get to hang the milteck exhaust I got recently? Or should I try and prise off the old rubber ones and use...

Changed my wheels for 15" yesterday and the rear springs for ebech. For life of me I Cant move the front springs don't really have the right tools. So I'm having a mate help me next week. All 4 wheels are now 15", I poped up to helfrauds to see if I could get a 21mm swan neck but nope. On way...

Hello. Looking to get some studs, I take my wheels of a fair bit and I'm fed up with horrible rusty bolts. + I got new wheels. One I've finished spraying them and cleaning them up. (I brought them black. Crumbling black) I'm not running Spacers. And my wheels are only et35. Do you think...

Sorry for the long title. Anyway I've developed a new sound on my clio and not one I care for. I noticed it the other day after being in second and going to change to third when out of no where car decide he'd just move into my lane. So I let of at around 3k+ and herd what I thought was the cat...

Hello all I've had these wheels for a bit and intend to switch for the stock 182 wheels, which will be fit sale soonish, the question is has anyone fitted these without Spacers? I'm on stock callipers, and just wondering if I'll need Spacers? To clear breaks! Cheers

I'm wondering if anyone knows of any garages or people in said area that do cambelt and dephaser? I think mines starting to go. + it is due for its change. Its not making an awful noise yet like my 1.2 did. Just a noise bit like jingling coins. Id just like a garage or person who knows what...

Bought 2x Powerflex universal exhaust mounts EXH 008, in red. They turned up a tried them, drilled the holes 11mm fitted, zip tied all good. Gave it a little test but it feels way to shaky. The car feels very shaky and if I stop and drop bellow the 1k rev mark it really shakes. It feels like...

Ive been searching around and alot of people have asked similar questions. But I need help. I'm hoping I'll be getting some new fox ms006 wheels and I want to use studs, quick change for the odd track days hopefully. I understand front back stud lengths are different? Basically Id like to put...

I've got a black gold 182, and it's had a bonnet dent in it since I brought it, it's been on my TODO list for 3 years, but I brought a flat and so on and cosmetic bits on my car have been put off. Well I'm looking at doing some work on the old car in the summer. I'm weighing up ideas. I need to...

Does anyone know where i can get oem ht leads and the coil pack? Also is magnacor worth it? I hear people have problems with them. They aren't strong enough? Cheers

I Try to keep my engine bay relatively clean and tidy. After finally getting 5 mins to my self I changed my spark plugs to find the rocker was a bit of a mess. Very grotty. I also found one of the bolts holding the Inlet on was broken. Have a feeling someone did it up to tight. I need to...

They are very very tight. Are they normally so tight? Im struggling to move them. And one looks like it's rusty. Also there seems to be alot of oil around my rocker? Any ideas thanks.

Hello all, I've had my Clio for a while now(3ish+ years) and I'm finally getting round to doing some jobs I always keep my engine bay relatively clean. But there's some bits that scratch at that part of my brain why wife wishes didn't exist. Engine bay pretty simple. Is this normal? For it...

Im going to change my front breaks, I've been meaning to do it, finally going to get a few days to get some jobs sorted on the old girl. Im changing the discs and pads for a brembro kit from kamracing, HC discs and some pads. I'd like to add braided lines. But do I need to change the calipers...

Has anyone ever fitted them on clios? If so what's it like to fit. I assume it's quite simplish

for a 182, which is a better buy? Everyone suggests Ngk, but the R26 sparks are cheaper. And I've see them included in a turbo build. I intend to add some engine bits eventually such as intercoolers and get a remap and maybe induction or Inlet. Cheers

this is the culprit on further looking though i found this And Good bodge by previous lol. Anyideas ive wedged it down to stop it flapping. Should i get a new one or just take it off and leave it off [emoji3] cheers

im sure this is a stupid question, but im fairly stupid :), just got a 182, and other than the car decating its self (to be fixed with a genuine renault gasket set and so on) and the previous owner LOVING the curbs, its a good car, so far the oil is fine however i really need to get some more...
