After tonight I've decided I HATE working on cars.
10 mins jacking the car and getting my tools out
10 mins spraying WD40 and leaving to soak
30 mins trying with a spanner to undo the lambda
5 mins of it moving slightly and me wondering why it won't turn any more
5 seconds realising I'd been...
Sounds easy enough :)
I only bought one, will replace the pre-cat and see if that helps. I assume I'll need to clear the codes as well once I've replaced it?
I'm just getting one from NW Performance, it's only £61.50. I think I only need pre-cat, as I understand it the post-cat doesn't really do a great deal.
Hi all,
My car runs like a dog for about 10 mins from cold. It's become unbearable now.
I plugged in a code reader and it returned the following:
P0130 O2 Sensor Circuit
P0135 O2 Heater Circuit
From searching on here I understand that the pre-cat lambda needs replacing.
I just had a very...
Oh yeah, now you mention it I did think it looks different for a 172, sorry dude, was miles away :)
It should be the same height, although I wouldn't be surprised if my shocks had gone and it was sitting lower. The ride certainly feels more harsh :p
Thanks :) Where were you, and where was I...
Right, I've changed my mind again, I'm moving house and got loads on at work this week, as well as a shed load of photography work to sort out so I'm just going to take it to Renault and get it done and dusted. Yes it's a bit pricey, but **** it, it's only money! I don't mind paying extra if it...

And any fluids I need, is there anyone on here who could do it all for me?
I'll pay obviously :)
Do I need coolant and brake fluid changed? If not, Renault says they can do it for £179, which means I don't have to spend £30 getting to and from JMS.
I imagine JLS are in hot demand right now :p
Still waiting for Tom@JMS to email back with a quote.
I have no holiday left unfortunately, I've got time booked out for a house move, Bestival in September, and Christmas :(
I could pull a sicky I suppose, but I'm not that kind of person really.
I didn't ask what Renault included in their service. I told them it's the 72k service without aux/cam though, so I assume it's everything that is usually included with a 72k service.
I wouldn't know where to start, and I'd like to keep the book stamped really.
Hi all,
My 182 needs a 72k service in about 500 miles, however I do not need the cam/aux kit/belts doing as these were both done a 1yr/19k miles ago.
I've called my local Renault garage and they quoted £249, another local Renault garage (indy place) quoted over £300.
I went to JMS last year...
Saw you earlier, around 7.45ish picking some people up I think. I was also in an Arctic 182, missing my turn, haha!
You're definitely on here as you has a CS.net sticker :)
My Clio had tints when I got it, took me about 9 months before I removed them and I immediately wished I had done it the day I got it. They looked gash.
