Hi guys, I've had a problem with my inlet manifold and now have to get a new one. I thought as as there isn't much in the cost I'd go for matched / ported ones. The only ones I can find are on k-tec and was wondering if anyone knows where else I can get them from? thanks in advance AJ

Yeah that's the problem with these little gems. Always a knock on effect

Cheers Dr Jekyll I hadn't actually seen that. A good read. I've got a 182 though and have read that the air box isn't as good as the ph1 or v6?

Be very interesting to see this test done again with the standard airbox... ive been ren trying to figure out the best route to go down.

Anyone? Just read on another unrelated post this could be crank sensor fault?

Sorry should haves said, whilst it's due a service, it was doing this last year before and just after service although the spark plugs weren't changed.

Hi guys, my Mrs has a 1.4 16v auto 2004 and, as above, when it's warm and you start it it revs very low and almost stalls. It it starts fine when cold, if a little lumpy, and is slightly hesitant for first 15 seconds of driving (as if the engine is resisting / not oiled up enough). But when...

Very good point. Suitably put off. Think I'll wait. Thanks to to everyone for their comments aj

Yeah I kinda agree, just looking for cheap way to cut some weight but prob better off saving up a bit! still if only for track car I wouldn't be too bothered. Aj

Afternoon all Was just wondering if anyone had any experience with the bellow, almost a seems too good to be true: http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?sbk=1&nav=SEARCH&itemId=350818151704 looking for some cheap buckets to cut a bit of weight from the car for tracks. Am waiting to hear...

Cheers guys, I did find a TB thread in t end confirming the above. If can get t manifolds half price that may just make my mind up!

Fell on their site by 'accident' when looking into inlet manifolds and wondered if anyone had bought anything from them? http://www.spead.co.uk/clio-172-182/ Also does the 65mm Throttle body actually make any difference?? Its for a pretty much standard 182, looking to do full system exhaust...

Hi guys. The interior door grabs on my clio are looking a bit worn / scratched / grubby. Anyone know where I can get new ones of these at a reasonable price? ebay just showing up used ones that are better than mine but not perfect. Any help gratefully appreciated. ​Aj

Hi guys, my runner on my passenger seat broke so took it all off and replaced. Unfortunately I broke t red/ black airbag clip in t process. Its a 182 FF and now t serv and airbag are constantly on! Does anyone know where I can get a replacement and how it's done? thanks in advance! AJ

My mrs' ones knackered and i've been looking on ebay for the above and wondered if anyone knew the connection block, as i dont really want to take it out to check before ordering, to put it back in and then take it out again when it comes down... This is the one that i'm not sure on...

Nice one, cheers guys!

Cheers for that mate. What exactly is the RSTuner? Sorry if this has been covered many-a-time!

Hi guys I've just ordered a de-cat for my 182 as I wanted a bit more noise without it being too loud and also free up some horsies! (unfortunately I ordered it before properly researching it on here etc and do not want to lose power / torque!!). I live in Jersey and basically don’t trust /...

Cheers lloveoil I thought that may be t case but this t first nom turbo car owned for years so thought best to check. Thanks again.

I'm also looking at getting a de-cat for mine and had one other question. I know ideally one should get a map of some sort when fitting but is this a must as in if I don't will it cause problems? I'm looking at a map down the line but for the time being wanting to do little bits here and there...

I have the similar on mine but seems to be more right hand at front. Especially slow turning and going over bigger bumps (such as speed bumps) and thought it could be anti roll / suspension arms / moveable part in suspension needing greasing? I don't know if I'm talking total nonsense sobpls...

There's a weight saving tip for ya, give your car the beans as much as poiible :lolup:

Thank f for that. I've been wondering the same thing for past few days only now it occurred to me to log in and search! 90% of my journeys are short, living on a island n all, and everytime I give it the beans exactly the same happens. Another weight off my mind, as much as it wasn't my post...

My mate who does body work just did mine for me, if ya want I can ask him what grit sand paper etc he used and let ya know?

Yeah mines got a new motor as well so doubt (hope) that's not t problem. Annoying as my current ones do my head in!

Cool cheers for t advise and please let me know how you get on. Although that said I may not be able to fit mine as when removing the xsara jet it got stuck and in anger pushing it from t bottom with a pair of pliers, it fired across the gravel driveway and now can't find it!

Hi mate, did you ever sort this problem out as I've just fitted some and they're doing exactly the same!? Cheers AJ

Big thanks to both of you for the comments. Will contact Maynard shortly :)

Hi guys Just bought a 182 sport n it's due a basic service which I'll do myself. My question is does anyone have any reckomendarions of the parts I use? I'm looking at the k-tec panel filter as I dont particulaly want a loud induction 'roar' unless I was actually going to gain something...

nice one mate, thanks. will get on the case!
