Hi guys So I got my front bumper off and managed to change a light bulb Today I realised my horn wasn't working. I did have to take the casing off the fuse box/electrics on the passenger side under the bonnet to get my hand in the light (to start). I fogot to put the casing back on and drove...

Thanks guys I'll take a look this weekend

I meant the igniter, yes. I'll need to check the ballast then, what excatly am I looking for and where?

Hi guys My passenger side xenon went out, I managed to get the bumper off and I switched it about and it worked fine on the driver side so I switched everything from the drivers side to the passenger side (bulb and power pack bit). Everything from the passenger side (not working to start)...

My car has hit 80k and 7 years and it's needed a new xenon/outside temp sensor/air con fixed/coolant thermostat in the space of about a month gogo clio

Haha - nope! A job for my garage Nothing to worry about in the mean time then? Any clue on a rough price? Appreciate it's garage dependant Thanks again

TY! Is this something I can fix myself?

Hi guys On my 182 the coolant temp gauge always sat bang in the middle but on the way home tonight after 30 mins driving it suddenly dropped to the first marker (5 in total on way to half way). What could this be? Please bare in mind I'm a novice with cars! Thanks

Haha - Cheers Yeah I can see the first metal clip but it's very tight and I've exerted a lot of force on it and it still won't budge! Tomorrow's post: 'So I broke my bumper in two....'

Bump - anyone?

My apologies. When I try to unclip the bumper at the side at the wheel arch I just can't get it free. I believe I have removed everything that needs removing. All 10 bits according to the how to guide.

Hi guys Got a great guide on here last week to remove the bumper on my 182. One of my xenon's went out so was going to try it in both sides to see if it was the light or the power pack thing. I manged to get all the bolts and screws out. Screws were mega rusted and had to get them out with...

Ah man Thanks for the reply - looks like I may struggle to do this then :/

Hi guys My nephew pushed my wing mirror in (like it does) then when he pulled it back round again it just snapped off at the joint. Now I've tried furiously to push this back in, but can't seem to get it back on. Just hanging by the wires (182 electric mirror). I can fit it back in so...

Agreed - but that means skipping through the middle lane to get there

Yep Always trying to skip the traffic

182. You're the guy I see going over the bridge in the mornings/evenings Mine is used for going to work (25 miles each way) and it's fine. Good MPG on the motorway, sometimes 39-40 mpg If you wanna give it some beans at the weekend you can and it's lots of fun! Had mine for 3 years and it's...

See you some mornings driving from Fife towards Edinburgh Love your car, the wheels are v nice and sounds good I have a black 182 also driving over the bridge (to Livingston)

I average about 36-37 I reset it everytime I fill up

Kev@Falkland quoted me Belts: £600 (£60 more than Renault) Service £150-200 You said he did both yours for £695 above :( I may ask him if he can do me for cheaper

Thanks Will thyey get out the chips fixed too? And can I just roll up with the wheels on the car and they'll do the rest or do I have to have the wheels off?

Hi guys Live in Fife and I'm after someone who can redo the rims and some bigger scuffs on my 182 standard wheels. The Mrs put a huge scuff in one a year back and it's about time I got it sorted and the rims are a little chipped too at the front Any tips on a good garage or individual who...

Nope, they are quite smooth Almost like the paint has faded in that area

It was dark when this happened Problem solved!

How about the guy at Glenrothes (Falkland) Is he just as good to get it done with? Any one know what prices they charge?

Bear in mind I live in Scotland, how much cheaper will he be? And also how long will it take?

I've been down occasionally, normally what I like to call 'real football' - which means they kick lumps put of each other, but fun to watch

Haha I said I was a novice, I meant to say I was a noob I'm blaming the Renault garage for that one aswell - they never told me Cheers boyo

WTF? Does my 182 have automatic lights?

Hi To be as concise as I can: Engine off / Lights in off position - No lights <-- Perfect Engine on / Lights in off position - Lights on <-- Wrong Engine on / Lights in side light position - Side lights on <-- Perfect Engine on / Lights in on position - Lights on <-- Perfect How easily can...
