I'd be tempted to say that's the release bearing. Does it do it if you just apply light pressure to the clutch and not put it all the way down?

Belt has to be removed when the cam cover comes off. There's also js services in Rotherham.

Had an eBay one from bmcatalysts on my 172. Worked a treat, quality was great and it passed 2 Mots before selling up

Because everytime I've used any of the other cheaper brands other than OEM, the ball joints or bushings go within a year, but never had that with lemforder who also are an OEM manufacturer for some cars. Had to fit a Moog arm from eurocarparts on my ford Kuga as it was all I could get at the...

I'd go with lemforder.

Exact same setup as most of CV joints then. God knows where the rhumors that they aren't rebuildable came from. Unless its just the fact the a new joint is hard to come by. I replaced the outer CV on my civic with a shaftec CV joint, same method as above with the circlip and it's still going...

Yep

Done loads of outers, the bolt snapped every time lol. Other than that, piece of piss

Lol, I had the subframe half way down and the inners were still a pain in the arse. I suppose going in a second time now I know where to position the clamps and mole grips etc it would be much easier.

I just used febi ones from autodoc. Fit fit. Absolute t**t of a job though..

For the sake of 50 quid I'd just stick a new shaft on it from the likes of J&r I didn't know that the joints weren't serviceable to be honest, but if that is the case then that sort of explains why nowhere seems to sell the joints on their own for the 182

I've started using turtle Wax seal n shine and recently their new ceramic spray sealent. I don't think I'll ever go back to a wax, this looks just as good and the durability is amazing, still beads after months.

Yeh id say the piston is sticking

One in the manifold pre cat, one in the cat post cat.

Laquer will just chip off and look naff, tried that before. Just did mine with the meguoars 2 step kit and it came with a spray on sealent, they look awesome. Claims 12 months on the bottle

What's it for? I don't remember ever fitting one of those and I've changed loads of ball joints in the past on clios

I was told by somebody once that itl struggle on the emissions due to overlap

Didn't even look, yet he's got proof lol. Reminds me of the cambelt just been done but lost the receipt story I see on eBay all the time.

What's the problem?

Another reason I don't use garages lol. Take the wheel and hub nut off and see if the spacer which should sit behind the bearing is missing and check if the bearing has fell to bits.

Of all the mods I did to my 172, exhaust, polybush, rack mounts, sportlines etc, looking back,if I was to own one again on a limited budget I would get a PMS shifter. Not of of other mods made a great deal of difference, but the shift feel And throw was dog s**t

Sounds like it went in a bit lopsided to me lol That subframe mount looks a bit rotten, non of mine ever went bad there

Can't believe how much they have gone up sine I ordered one about 2 years ago

Triscan 100%

The rack could be damaged. If your original problem was cured by turning the wheel has hard as possible causing a broken coil spring and a loud crack, then perhaps it wasn't the steering lock, but something jamming the suspension? Is there any play in the rack? If you move the steering wheel...

Got a cobra sport exhaust on my civic, sounds great, is quite loud though but the design and build quality are top notch.

Lol I second that. I tried meguiars ultimate compound with a das 6 pro on my Monaco, it took forever to get any form of correction the paint was that tough

Tried Renault parts direct? They sell em for a 182 so should be able to get the 1.2 items if they aren't the same.

Crazy. The buyer could have spent 2k on a shed and made it mint for way less than 8k. Somebody with clearly money to blow, he probably owns serveral other expensive cars and price did not really matter.

What country are you in? Maybe see if a UK seller would ship you one?
