thanks, at least i now know its another french dodgy part fitted to the car

ok another question, im guessing that whatever it uses to engage the aircon pump (servo??) is overloading the circuit and blowing the fuse, does anyone know were it is and what it is please

Does anyone have any ideas about this, my normal fan works fine but as soon as I switch on A/C it blows the fuse which is now driving me kin :mad:

try A plan

Cheers mate, its a bit difficult to see but I can just make out the nut against the thermostat housing, do you put any sealant on the threads or not? Andy

Firstly how much are they, and whats involved in changing it, and exactly were abouts is it, im presuming its on the front of the block? cheers Andy

Use a G clamp to push the piston back, but make sure it doesnt overflow from the reservoir

The arse end doesnt wallow as much (read fast) they feel more in control of the rise and fall of the car, and i have them on the softest setting, so they are firmer than stock already, and touch wood, upto now, the oil remains inside the shock :approve: I paid around £200 for them. Andy

I've had the yellow painted konis on my 182 for 2 months, got them from demontweeks, excellent dampers, after 2 sets of renault shocks spilt there fluid everywhere I have had enough them :mad:

I ran over a tyre yesterday that was stuck in the 3rd lane of the M6, checked for damage last night and its just left a mark down the undertray and a mark on the centre box, which i presume houses the 2nd cat, last night going home it was a bit lumpier till it got warm, but this morning it...

replace it yourself, just unplug the connector and take it of with a spanner

sorry mate, after having the 3rd set changed ive had enough of renault shocks thanks anyway

Can someone please tell me or point me to a website listing bilstein or koni rear shocks for my 182 please, dont need any fancy adjustable ones ,just ones that keep oil on the inside not like renault 5hite. Already tried demon tweeks who only do koni adjustable at £176 Cheers Andy

Whats the quality of fitment like on the H&S system, and cost please?

My 182 has started to clank when coming on and off under light throttle, but it seems to disappear when the cars hot. I used to have a similar problem on an old VTS I had, which was traced to the gasket between the downpipe and the rest of the exhaust, do clio's suffer this problem also. TIA Andy
