I'll second this, i bought my 182 about 2 years ago, apart from driving it about for the first year, i've never even managed to hoover it out due to kids, house maintenance, kids again, weather, etc etc etc! One day it'll get sorted :)

as it cant move at the moment it's been incorporated into the halloween decorations.....

As this has just popped up, im guessing the sills being in this state would be an MOT fail? how much would it be to get this fixed on both sides?

Think that's the job for tomorrow! Just seemed a weird place for a fuse! I'll strip it back a bit more and see if I can figure it out

I'm slowly trying to go through the Clio 182 I bought a few years ago and haven't really done much with since. On removing the gear stick surround (which of course has the alarm LED in) i noticed these wires have been altered and there is an inline fuse in these wires under the dash in the...

Is it possible you sat on the keys and unlocked it? i know it should lock again if nothing is opened but i've done this before, even came out once to the electric boot on my audi open as i'd sat on the key inside, i'm more careful these days but it probably still happens

Just changed the coilpack and leads (they are combined) and it seems to...

so we're thinking injectors or leads/coilpack then?

leads are all on in the right order (they're numbered), nothing is trapped as far as i can see? could a dodgy seal on the inlet manifold cause this?

I need help with my 1.2, i recently replaced the rocket cover gasket as it was leaking oil over the exhaust and generally stinking up the place. Whilst i had it apart i also cleaned the throttle body and removed the pool of oil that collects in the inlet manifold on these d4f engines. after ive...

I think on mine if you turn in to auto then off twice quickly it beeps and activates/deactivates them? infact its a mk3, i have no idea sorry haha

It's possible to do the 1.2 clutch without dropping the subframe, by supporting the engine and moving it as far over as possible and then moving the gearbox the other way, then using "clutch alignment fluid" on the clutch and slipping it in the gap, there's just enough room. It's not for the...
