    182, strange noise, clutch?

    Will be ok short term, but it'll get louder and/or potentially fail the bearing at some point. I'd look at getting it done in the next month or so at least.

    A strong mix of G101 or Surfex HD usually does it.

    182, strange noise, clutch?

    Clutch release bearing I'd say. They're not brilliant on these. How old is the clutch? I get that slight judder too sometimes, doesn't feel concerning though. I've put it down to worn mounts/bushes.

    Running it with no oil probably didn't help 😅 Those Ford mod engines are crazy over engineered. The 5.0 Coyote will take massive power with just a piston and rod upgrade.

    Yeah he's finding the weak points now the power is being turned up. He's got a deposit on an SMX I believe.

    Get an iron and tar remover on it first.

    Great guy, Steve. His Chevy wagon is crazy fast.

    Slight hesitation Clio 172 Cup

    Ahh yours is a bit different then i think. I have no lights on the dash, no error codes and no limp mode. My pedal and throttle body look to working properly on the live data i've seen. Even did a track day the other week, faultless.

    Nut and Bolt sets

    Used them a few times on their ebay page for small quantities when Orbital were expensive for delivery.

    Slight hesitation Clio 172 Cup

    Well this is weird... Just seen this and i have what i think is a similar thing on my 182. Does it once warm, cruising at say 30mph in 3rd i get like a slight juddering feeling but once i apply any throttle it clears up. Will do it in any gear between 2-3k rpm. Is that what yours is doing?

    Vague Steering after rack refurbish

    I'll fire you a message later in the week to let you know if Sat/Sun.

    Yeah inside and then where it bolts to the rack.

    Vague Steering after rack refurbish

    Worth checking for play in the steering column. @Beauvais Motorsport seems like he's clued up on this sort of stuff from the posts i've seen.

    Turning the PC off at the wall shuts it down faster. Tune in next week for more quick tips.

    It's good stuff. Requires the first application to be spread on with a damp microfibre (although I do this for every application with Gyeon Wet Coat)

    Possibly, or might have been the quick release adaptor in the snow foam lance that I said to do. Where else was it leaking from, I couldn't quite tell from the picture. Is it where the hose goes into it? O ring maybe.

    Take the adaptor out of the gun and PTFE tape the brass thread a load and try that.

    Coolant Temperature sensor Connections

    Renault Parts Direct Not the cheapest but they are decent quality and come with the rubber seal.

    Coolant Temperature sensor Connections

    May as well change your thermostat while you're there considering you're going to lose a bit of coolant.

    Coolant Temperature sensor Connections

    They only have 2 wires mate, the green is just blank.

    (Hopefully) the easiest Clio 182 Resto ever...

    Japanese car mods. Used to see earthing kits everywhere back in the day 😅

    What's the green wire at the battery, an extra earth?

    Revs Shooting up when Accelerating?

    Think i paid about £200 ish labour 5 years ago, plus parts. £400 doesn't sound bad.
  27. JamesBryan

    Revs Shooting up when Accelerating?

    Clutch, stick it in 4th or 5th at 2000rpm and floor it. Revs will rise but the car won't accelerate if it's slipping. Don't really hear of clutch slipping on these tbh, not got that much torque 😂

    Water leak through centre dash

    The other possibility is the seal around the heater box in the centre of the scuttle, water could get in there if it's perished.

    Eicher track discs???

    I think people are expecting a bit much from a set of £40 pads to go out and do a track session on 😅 If it hasn't got DS Performance or High Carbon in the name, then it's not the premium Brembo stuff.

    Eicher track discs???

    No they have a cheaper line made for them by Brembo. People often think they're getting the performance line of the usual Brembo stuff when it's not.
