Right I had to new Uniroyal tyres fitted the other day and have left the fronts (nankang ns2) on due to loads of tread left. But it handles shockingly now. It feels like the back tyres are flat and it's worse when turning at speed and on the motorway. Do odd tyres on the back effect these cars...
After aqumilating most of the Poorboy's range lol. I though I would give the car a nice going over. Starting with claying,polishing,glaze,sealed it then waxed it. Still looks great after 178k. The interior got a good going over as well.
Thought as it has been snowing we would take a trip up into the hills around belmont (bolton) and surrounding areas. a few roads were closed. Due to the snow being so think. Was a nice drive anyway.
After selling the 182 a few weeks ago after owning it 11 years it was time for a bigger and better car. As I was browsing the for sale section this beast popped up. So paid a deposit and today did a nice 8 hour round journey and picked this up. Some might reconise it. No real plans for it. Sort...
Right my coolant seems to have a mind of its own. it's dropping low and sometimes emptying but I can't find wherits going to. The garage has had a look and is baffled. Any ideas where else it could be going so I can look?
Thanks
I've just changed my drive shaft because it was clicking. Went for a drive and it's leaking gearbox oil though the metal seal. So I'm thinking if I buy a cv boot kit will it cure the clicking on my original shaft? Or can the metal seals be fixed?
Thanks
All of a sudden my car has decided to leave puddles of coolant and I mean empty most of it in less than an hour. Is it a knackered water pump you think. It's booked in for some work to be done in the garage so can ask him to look at it aswell.
Thanks
These past couple of weeks all of a sudden the steering has been allover the place while driving and basically just shocking. it's started to wear the outside of my tyres down quickly. It just feels really wobbly. I know my drive shafts knackered I've got a new one to go on. I replaced my shocks...
Recently since we've had loads of rain. After a few minutes my wipers stop working so I have to turn them off then back on every few minutes to get them going again. Anyone know what's it could be?
Thanks
If it's not mechanical problems its electric lol. Right when I press to unlock the car it doesn't disarm it first time. I have to lock it then unlock it again before it does. Anyone know why it's started doing it?
Thanks
Lastnight I put my drivers window up. It might a funny click as it went fully up so tried to put it down and it won't go down atall now. Any ideas? Is it easy to take the panel off to check?
Thanks
Hi there I'm wondering if anyone could she'd any light on the problem. When I start the car and either turn the wheel while static or move off slowly there's a loud horrible grinding noise and then it stops after a bit. Anyone got and idea?
Thanks
Just had the car hooked up to a diagnostic machine because my abs serv light and traction control are on. It's come back that it's both rear speed wheel sensor open curcuit. Is it a easy fix?
Thanks
I'm just wondering roughly how much I'm looking at for.
Inner steering rack
Engine mounts and dogbone mount plus a passenger side drive shaft it's all for a cupped 182
Thanks

2. There's a loud knocking from the drivers side suspension when go over bumps/ little pot holes
3. Airbag light and services light pop on and off
4. Traction...
I've just purchased an lg440 3d player paired with my Samsung tv to go with my new pioneer vsx 824 k amp. Now it all runs through the hdmi inputs on the amp and then connects to the TV through hdmi. Here's the problem when I went to watch a 3d movie it keeps flicking on and off saying switch...

Nearside rear parking break little or no effort
Parking break effiency below requirments
And my traction control light abs and serv light on
Thanks
