    Modus.

    Guys, guys, cool down, would you please, With Renault our hopes are always (too) high. Remember Clio II and other their models. It will be the same with Modus. Dont be fooled with this marketing trickeries. 5stars NCAP? OK, but there are also other things which make a certain model successful...

    182 Cup Announced for uk.

    Martin172, Thank you for your 2 posts. They are also spot on. Dammit, they messed up completely. On one hand they still seriously struggle in getting the standard car twitched up - 182 is still shouting for improvements - job done only halfway!!!!! On the other hand they have commercialized...

    182 Cup Announced for uk.

    I was trying so hard not to spit this out but I simply must. I believe Renault have COMPLETELY missed the point with this "ad hoc" cupped variant of RS 182. Call it TEAM, UK Cup, bla, bla. Instead of preparing a real DRIVERS CAR, they will continue with few (not so cheaper) sub-wariants...

    182 - Warranty-o-rama

    Guys, guys, you must be teasing me. You have been communicating with the man who went thru all the worst things that can happen to a loyal customer. For example I was one of the customers whose claim regarding the FAMOUS middle part of the RS Mk I exhaust was denied. Which was damn wrong...

    182 - Warranty-o-rama

    James, admob, funky, I believe you know what I have on my mind. But you will not say it aloud. And I also know why. But its OK. There is a big wall against us, faithfull customers. The moment you drive off the dealers parking this wall rises. Name it Service Clientele or whatever you like...

    182 - Warranty-o-rama

    No proper answer till now. "Vice caches" was always a taboo theme. And it still is. As I did not find any suitable Briton page dealing with hidden faults I include a French one: http://www.321-auto-annonces.com/ma_voiture/achat/vices_caches.asp There are some good definitions and...

    182 - Warranty-o-rama

    James, CocoPops, Jason C, What I would like to point out is the whole issue of "hidden faults" of all kinds. These include: 1. Faults that cannot be seen at first glance or are located on some "convenient spots" (like underneath licence plates - this is a good one). 2. Faults that a...

    182 - Warranty-o-rama

    Good evening admob, Thank you for joinin the thread. I am not quite sure but ... you might have missed the point. Therefore I will give another example: Customer picks up a new car and finds a hole in the bottom of the side mirror. It is not visible, except when looking underneath. He/She...

    Do most 182 hesitate on first key turn

    Thank you for your views mateys. One extra Q: Can fuel quality also contribute to this behaviour?

    Do most 182 hesitate on first key turn

    Okay, mateys, So to sum up: 1 Turn the key to the contact position 2 Wait for lights to go off 3 Turn the key all the way Its similar to waking my 20-month old daughter. She needs some time to get awake, but when she does, then everything goes rocket way including diapers, njammy...

    Do most 182 hesitate on first key turn

    Hi RSportlers, Tell me, do all 182 hesitate on the first key turn ? Has this anything to do with the bedding the engine in? Or maybe the fuel quality is to be blamed? And a little Q about the typre pressure? Is 2.3 front and 2.1 back OK (in bar)? Thank you.

    RS 182 build Q-Smilin’ Bumpy Bumper

    Dear Lee, To be frank, I think you are right. Speaking globally. But Lee, the issue I would like to speak out its not actually about the bumper or the splitter. The core problem lies somewhere else. And you probably know who or what I am thinking about. Bottom line: We must not allow...

    RS 182 build Q-Smilin’ Bumpy Bumper

    Good morning Coco, Thanks again for your assistance. As far these niggles are concerned, bumper shouldnt have been deformed and it will be replaced. If not for other reason, then for later times when the car goes for sale. So that nobody would blame me for bonging it. Regarding the...
