This is a bit weird, the car did it earlier but seems to have stopped doing it now.
I need some bushes on my suspension as I get clunks when maneovering slowly, it could be related as the knock feels/sounds the same but its doing it under different circumstances.
Basically I was driving...
Re: iPhone 5. Pre-Orders 14/9. Ships 21/9. iOS6 19/9
My contract with Orange ends on the 4th Dec. I don't get any 3G whilst at work which is when I need it the most so I'm waiting until December so I can port my ("Orange Gold" - ie. Easy to remember) number over to O2 which has good 3G network...
5 minutes isn't enough. My 182 is ticking over for 5 minutes when I finish work whilst I have a quick cig and the water temp dial is lucky to be 1/4 of the way up once I get in it.
Takes 2 or 3 minutes for it to stop the overfuelling it does on a (standard map's) cold start, probably looking...
Let it warm up first, get your 7,200RPM limit, then drive off.
Unless you can do what I did in my Golf.
Was on the way to Subway for lunch and saw a police speed trap on the way there. On the way back along the same road, a black 1.2 Corsa filled with Chavs & Chavettes pulled alongside me...
Bought my Clio 182 only a few months ago.
26 when I bought it, 27 early this November.
But I feel like I'm 12 when I'm giving it some welly. The most fun you can have on 4 wheels by far.
I just hope the drifting is as tricky to pull off as it is on FM4. That would make things interesting!
I loved drifting in FM4, such a challenge to link multiple corners in a single drift but when you did, you actually felt you had acheived something other than doing what any other person in...

Doesn't fit into the holes but it seems it will fit over the top of them.
Best way to tell is as already suggested. Leave the car til the engine is stone cold (12hrs works wonders). Start it and drive off straight away. If it is hesistant, feels 'bogged down' and if you take it over 4K then let the revs drop & the exhaust 'pops' on the over-run then it isn't mapped...
The Milltek system with a decat is a fairly quiet system when compared to Bryera's decatted Yozza race system on his 172 Cup. Thats over-the-top loud. I wouldn't remove my decat (apart from when sending it for MOT) as I honestly believe the decat lets the rest of the system sing.
With a cat...
Saw your motor parked near Barclays on Lytham Road then a few minutes later I was next to you @ the lights on Squires Gate in the Titanium Silver 182.
Are you on here?
When I bought my Clio it already had the Milltek cat-back system & panel filter.
Never noticed any difference whatsoever after I had the decat installed other than it rasp'd more and was a lot louder. I've still got the centre silencer in mine aswell.
Done about 3,000 miles with the decat...
I'm running a decatted Milltek & a Green Panel Filter on a 182 and get barely any noise and pretty much zero drone on the motorway @ 80MPH.
Nice and raspy when you kick it's head in, but more subtle than the Yozza's.
I've got the same issue on my Milltek, but it seems the exhaust itself is forcing the pipes off centre. Tried and tried to centre the tips by moving the mounts but it won't play ball.
I'm gonna wait til a friend is available and see if we can force it to align.
Looked a nice example, sounded nice too. Driver was a well built lad with a skinhead? About 4pm ish
I was in the silver 182 going in the opposite direction.
Looks stunning! The glow off the car is immense!
The RS badge on the back, does that cover the two holes left by removing the "Clio?"
I was looking at that badge and want rid of the Clio one.
I've been waiting for this for a while, VM announced they were doubling broadband speeds for all customers.
Anyway I checked my postcode a fortnight ago and apparently my area is upgraded. Run a speedtest, and still on 20MBit. Fair enough. Give them time.
Today, ran a speedtest, 20MBit. What...
I'm pretty sure I've narrowed this down.
Took the wheel off, inspected the disc and the side facing away from the car was fine. I check the other side and:
Now I'm not mechanic but that doesn't look normal at all to me!
The culprit?
Just need some discs & pads it seems (I hope!)
