Did a quick search and found 5-40 to be the best but how much do I need to order to do an oil/filter change on my clio 182? Thanks :)

Car is a clio 182 with discs all round

Did a cheeky search but couldn't find a definitive answer tbh. Passenger rear brake is sticking on, and as such getting red hot. Rolled to a stop onto my drive today and could hear the brakes binding. Passenger rear was also red hot, like really hot! Rest were cold. Quick fix or do I need to...

Cheers bud :)

Are these any good - eBay item no. 350515509690

So my drivers side exterior door handle packed in today, I can open it from the inside fine. Noticed it started to feel weird last week as you had to like open it all the way and at the very last bit it clicked open, so I knew it was on its way out. Is it an easy DIY fix like a spring? Thanks alot

Yes mate 182 sport. There's a kit on eBay for £72 free postage genuine Renault kit brand new, may aswell go for that then?

K ill do that, my old man reckons I missed a wire off te battery for the alternator, is that a possibility? I have one main live and 2 smaller ones going into the fuse box then one negative that branches into 2. Doubt it's that though as it was fine all day the other day

Just to add, the fresh battery went flat after ten mins whereas the day before it was fine for a whole day! I'm pretty sure it's not the battery maybe a dodgy connection on the Alternator?

Hi everyone, having problems with my clio 182. Cut a long story short, bought a race battery, fitted it all was well for a good few hours of driving, lights on, stop starting in traffic, fine. Went for a blast the following day and gave it some stick down a country lane and suddenly the battery...
