Have you had a code reader on it? I've had my engine light flashing like Blackpool illuminations for the last 2 weeks and code P0300 random misfire. But I was getting a distinct smell of fumes and unburnt fuel inside the car. It struggled through the emissions test back in September. I changed...

Good shout about the undertray or maybe even a wheel arch liner. I had the wheel arch liner scraping after a garage had done some work and not fastened it back properly. I thought one of the wheels was gonna fall off lol

D38 is colour code Renault use for Inferno. Are you after some rattle cans making up? If you give them that code they should be able to mix it. I think the ral codes are different. When I wanted some Arctic blue mixing i just gave them the Renault code J41 and they mixed it perfectly.

Paint code for inferno is D38. When you open the drivers door there should be a sticker with it on.

Cheapest genuine injectors you'll find. Magneti Marelli. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Sport-Clio-II-172-182-98-06-2-0-16v-IWP042-Genuine-Petrol-Fuel-Injector/284133172043?pageci=070568ca-e434-471c-ab17-9b09e261c18f

Welcome to CS. You might find more info if you put a pic of the car up.

You'll probably find there's something like a small coin hidden in the slider. To remove you unbolt it from underneath the car. Easy to do, 4 nuts, 2 of the holes to access the nuts have small plugs you have to prise out, the other 2 are just open holes. It's pretty self explanatory to be honest...

Those prices will most likely only be temporary. You find that they have offers on from time to time. £343 is a good price. You'll need to add on coolant as well. If you can afford it I'd buy the kit while it's at a low price.

£150 for the cambelt kit? For the full kit with water pump, coolant etc...... Its £282 on RPD. Then you might also need the aux belt kit if its due.

I've had my 182 since new, coming up to 15 years in February. Wow, where has that time gone. I took it off the road for about 10 months back end of 2018 and garaged it. I didn't need a car for that time. Since putting it back on the road in September 2019 I've spent about £2k with new brakes...

Great little cars. You can have a lot of fun on the B roads, they handle surprisingly well. I've had one a few times when I've been to Poland. I drove it from one end of Poland to the other, flat out where possible, about 10 hours. I thought the fuel gauge was broken lol.

Was posted the other day. https://cliosport.net/threads/anyone-after-a-172-cup.836274/#post-12028186

Which cats2u cat are you running as there are 2 and 1 is twice the price...

I wasn't sure if he'd actually bought it the end and if he did for how much. I know he said it spent some time at Birchdown but it wasn't clear who had actually sent it there.

Did @jong actually buy this in the end and now he's selling it on or is the original owner selling it?

I think this posted on here a couple of months ago? Looks like it didn't sell. I wonder why.

Like @jameswrx said. If it's not located on the peg it'll scratch your window. I know, I learnt the hard way. If you leave it the scratch will just get worse every time you use the wipers.

Welcome to CS. Also for genuine Renault parts you have Renault Wolverhampton who i found to be slightly cheaper than RPD. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?sid=renaultcarparts_uk&isRefine=true&_pgn=1!~OMSelectionMarkerStart~!!~OMSelectionMarkerEnd~

Back at £27.15 again with Amazon prime @R3k1355

Shows £39.43 for me now. Last night with amazon prime it was showing £27.33. Looks like that offer has finished now.

Get yourself a ball joint puller. Below is just an example. Lots of places sell them...

It's a bit of a minefield trying to find the right fan. It seems there are quite a few different types for a mk2 Clio. Look on ebay and you'll see what I mean. The one I got from a local breakers had the resistor built into the fan. They assured me it would work if I bypass / ignore the resistor...

Is the fan itself working? Mine started playing up a couple of months ago. Was intermittent then I could smell like a burning plastic smell so I stopped running it. I sourced one from a local breakers. Dead easy to change. Post #6...

Or make your own using stainless parts that'll never rust. https://cliosport.net/threads/cat-manifold-diy-fitting-kit.799011/

I was coating the headlights with CarPro Dlux so I thought I'd try some on my scuttle panel and the black plastic on the wing mirrors . I didn't prep the plastic and I didn't remove it, I just left it on o_O That was over 12 months ago and it's still looking good :)

I have these fitted, 6000k and they've been spot on. https://www.hids-direct.co.uk/d2s-50-premium-35w-xenon-headlight-bulb-set-twin-pack/

That'll be why you have spongy brakes then.

https://cliosport.net/threads/brake-bleeding-order.804538/ According to this you were right @Leo182 But I've bled them rears first, fronts first also in the order recommended in the post I've put a link to and all ways worked. As long as you keep the reservoir topped up it never made any...

Birchdown and Diamond motors hourly rate is very reasonable and pretty much inline with local garages I've taken my 182 to for small bits n bat's of jobs that have needed doing over the years. My first experience of a major service at a Renault dealership was an absolute joke. First they rang...

I've been on CS a long time and never heard them called that before lol. At least I know what you mean now. Afaik they've always been referred to as ph1 or ph2.
