Had the 182 MOT’d the other day and one of the advisories was corrosion on the front discs. The outboard side of them looks fine. Perfectly normal. However, the inboard side of the discs looks like the pads aren’t sweeping properly on the outer and inner edges of the discs. I took a few pictures...

I’m on my second one of these now, and this one is failing in the same way the first one did. Has anyone else had the same issues with these and are there any better ones out there?

My cruise control in the 182 has developed a strange fault over the last few days. I hit the switch and the green light comes on and the dash LCD display switches to the dashes for no memorised speed. I get to a speed I want to stay at and hit the plus or minus button. All good so far. I hit...

Having a little issue with the Clio. If I don't use it for say, a day, when I try to start it, the engine turns over but won't fire in to life. However, it then always starts on the second attempt. This doesn't always happen, only around 60% of the time. I thought it might be the battery as I...

Thursday evening coming down Cricket Hill Lane. Silver 182 with 3/4 front plate.

As above. I know this has been covered a few times before in here but not many solutions have been found it seems. My washer jets for the headlamps have stopped working. Not sure when this happened but sometime since February. I've checked the pump by swapping over the connectors, and that...

I know it's been done to death on here, but I'm posting as I'm out of ideas and need the help of the collective CS mind. I have water in my passenger footwell. I've pulled up the carpets and it's coming from the bulkhead in the corner near the door. It doesn't have a sunroof. It's been to...

White 182 KV05*** this evening around 6pm joining the M3 at Hook and coming off at Basingstoke. Black roof and lowered. Looked pretty mean.

Would anyone be able to measure the length of the Velcro strap in the boot of a 182 (the one that holds the toolkit/jack) and let me know as mine has gone missing and I'd like to replace it. Thanks :)

My engined seized on a trackday recently and I was left with a stark choice - scrap the 182 I'd had for two months or seek a replacement engine. I decided to do the latter and found and bought a 172 engine from a thoroughly decent chap on here. It's been fitted and runs fine but I've been told...

As above, found these on eBay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261437140249?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Are they the right ones for a 182 and how do you remove them?

This lunchtime coming into Alton from Selborne. Small front plate starting with K, I think.

Hi. I'm returning to the forum after a seven year absence! I used to have an 04 plate 182 in racing blue, which I part-ex'd in 2008. I've regretted it ever since. The opportunity came up to get rid of my diesel Ford Focus as I started cycling to work after being moved to a different job...

'04 plater this afternoon at 15:30, heading northbound on the A33 towards Reading. I was waiting at the Sherfield Park roundabout in my blue Octavia.

Spotted yesterday around 14:35 driving past the police station. It was 3 or 4 up and had a new style Cliosport sticker in the rear window. I was behind you in my Octavia :)

The time has finally come to move on. The Clio will be part-ex'd next week when it returns from the body shop (for an unrelated prang) :cry: Taking it's place in the Karlos household will be an '06 plate Skoda Octavia vRS 2.0 turbo :D I'll be sad to see the Clio go - it really is a...

On Sunday morning, heading north. Had quite a few people on board. He certainly didn't appreciate being followed by that police car! ;)

Stopped at the petrol station this evening. I was in the rubbish Corsa :)

This afternoon driving through Selbourne from Alton. I was in the Ford Focus with "Police" on it ;) I must say it looked like a very nice example. :cool:

Spotted you this afternoon! I was following you up the ring road and on to the A33 towards Chineham. I was in the Corsa behind you. :D

Anybody know how much a new 182 front bumper and a new nearside xenon headlamp unit would set me back? I can't seem to find the parts and their relevant prices on the tinterweb anywhere.

Yesterday afternoon, coming the other way in my RB 182 with stripes - you gave us a flash and a wave! :)

Yesterday afternoon. You waved at me. I was in the RB 182 with stripes! :)

Are these foglights the same? I need to replace my offside foglight as it got smashed by a car in front the other day. I've seen some for sale on eBay for the new clio (197) and they look very similar to those for sale for the 182. Question is, are they the same/will they fit my 182?

Yesterday morning, with lexus lights, driving down The Butts into town.

I've been toying with the idea of removing my white stripes from my RB 182. I'm not sure I want the car to be so easily recognisable anymore. The car is a 2004 model, and has had the stripes on since day one AFAIK. If I remove them, am I going to be left with two silly bits of paintwork that...

Spotted entering the Pets At Home car park this morning, as I drove out. It had a private plate and the most miserable looking woman driving it I've ever seen!

On Saturday evening about 21:30 ish. I overtook you and another car, then you overtook and followed at speed before I turned off and you flashed me! Always nice to have a little play on a great road! :race: :cheers:

Every morning this week coming the other way! :cool:

of Clio V6s parked up at the Longbridge Mill pub, Sherfield On Loddon, this afternoon. :cool:
