    Deer+Clio=BAD :'( (PIC HEAVY)

    Lol at that if you imagine it's the deer going 'AHHH f**k'.

    Brother hit a pheasant.

    This is my worry too - winter/rain/salt/exposed bottom pulley just makes me shudder, haha. He's taking it to RenTech on Monday to get it looked at.

    Brother hit a pheasant.

    Knew I shouldn't have sold him my 182.... Ha. I jest, he was doing 80 down the motorway and BOOM, pheasant. Saw chunks of car flying off in his mirror. I know the splitter is £100ish (he doesn't want to do the Skoda trick, want's to keep it standard) - how much is the arch plastic etc? It...

    Just sold the 182 to my brother :(

    Some inheritance came through when he turned 18 and my dad's work fleet insurance covers any driver, cost £55/mo to add it to add it to the policy. Yes, he is. Still in 'arsey teenage boy' mode though so doesn't realise it.

    Just sold the 182 to my brother :(

    He won't do that - boy has taste, just he's 18 (I'm 22) and know what I was like at that age. I only had a 1.2 at the point to make my mistakes in. He says it scares him though so I guess he'll learn rather than go gung ho.

    Just sold the 182 to my brother :(

    I've gotten a job in London and need to live in Zone 2, bit short of cash and got the student overdraft baggage as well, so have just handed over the reigns for £3500. Had it running the best it's ever been running too, brand new genuine back box, new center section, fixed the washers, only 1k...

    How rare is factory sat nav on a 182?

    There was the full kit from a car someone was stripping on eBay this time last year - went for £110. Bet it would have been a PITA to get working though.

    Mileage on a 172/182

    I had a 1.2 Clio with 42k and it was s**t. Broke down all the time and had an underlying electrical problem. My 2004 182 which I bought on 68k last August, and since have driven it up to 97,500 with oils changes every 6k.... hasn't skipped a beat. So yeah, mileage is a number.

    are there two Lamda sensors and where are they on the 182?

    One before the cat in the center of the car, and one after the cat. Upstream one controls fueling, downstream one measures emissions.

    Oil change, vast improvement!

    I do every 6k with Fuchs 5w40. I 100% notice a difference every oil change. Both before and after.

    Timing Belt Change? - Cornwall

    Edit: Just realised you said you wanted them checked, not changed. Whoops. I just called to ask about an exhaust fitting and enquired about the belts for you, they have all the proper tools and stuff and the price was right too.... so they should be absolutely fine for a check.
