So, i took my beloved 182 to have it's MOT today and my mechanic told me that whilst it was being tested the engine just seized up, he told be that it looks like the cam belt had snapped, he said due to the nature of the damage it would probably cost more to repair than the cars worth.
So what...
So I have previously had a problem with my blowers not coming on at all, this was due to the transistor in the resistor pack, which was sorted. Now i cant turn the bloody thing off!! Full blast heat, and cant turn it down or off! (luckiness it's winter) Is it the same process again?
Many Thanks!!
So my 182 has about 68k on the clock and it had its timing belt and aux done down at Birchdown on around 50k, and recently i've noticed a leak i think its a red-ish orangey colour. This is along with the Temp gauge going up to the top after 4-5 miles! Im a bit of a noob with mechanics as you may...
So my Blowers stopped working about a month ago, and i thought it was that transistor or whatever you call it, but in a morning when i first fire her up occasionally the blowers will work:S I have been told by an electrician that a transistor will either work or not, so im guessing thats not the...
Obviously i do not condone street racing although when a rude motorist tries to overtake me at the lights in the wrong lane i do not like to give them the pleasure.
So, what cars have you "overtaken"?
For the short time i have had the 182 i have only done a Lexus IS...:rasp:
Apparently mine "could" be on its way out.. and also they apparently cost over 400 £ just for this little sensor that it seems no one has heard of this all relates to my abs problem ??
Has anyone ever heard of such a thing??
Cheers in advance!!
Which is the Downstream and which is the Upstream Lambda sensor?? there's one before the cat and one after from front to back.. so which is which?? thanks!
my Esp light wont come up but the electrician said its on and working and if he flicks the switch it goes off so it must be the light on the dashboard.
Does anyone know how to fix the display light? cheers
Apparently iys broken and the engien warning lights on ... It controlls emissions and petrol being released wich affects fuel consumption massively apparently. He quoted me over 100 quid but I cant find this sensor anywhare ! Anyone know if thats the correct name of them ?

so the title says it all, i have the original silver colored ones.
I saw some Ford graphite gray ones that looked nice or fully black?

My mate said that apparently from April 1rst It will become illegal to own a car and not to have it insured even ifn it is in the garage locked away?
Anyone know cant find anything on the subject?
I'm so confused about my new 182, if anyone has seen my posts they'l understand !
So i bought it neer enough 2 weeks ago, i thought it was the best £3150 i had ever spent!
(55k miles Black new breaks new tires and new backboxes!)
As i was excited my head decided to leave my shoulders and i...
Hi i was wondering how i could make my 182 stand out a little more, its in black but i couldent figure out what color decall i should choose ? i was thinking ither a dark gray/ carbon fibre look or the classic Black and gold.. also does anyonyone know anywhere to buy decal for the length of the...
So the title says it all.. for me not at all, i don't know why but it never has! i bought my first car (Seat Arosa) with a tennis ball sized rust patch on the side and i didn't bat an eye lid! if it does turn you off how much would you expect to knock off the selling price?
