If you fixed it in the car park and it was something simple I think you have every right to burn the place to the ground.
Seriously though if your not mechianically minded get a friend to have a look before you commit to a new ecu. Or take it to a specialist for a second opinion.
The ecu covers on the 1.2s are known to chafe at the wiring, do you know if the tamper cover is still over it or has it been removed?
If you got it home now I would have a good look round the ECU and wiring as best I could.
I doubt its a new ECU tbh more likely a loose/bad wire, but you never...
I'm not sure why everyone feels the need to point out the errors of his ways, I'm sure hes well aware of what he did and won't do it again, live and learn and all that.
Anyway, good luck with the new project!
I used to have a Renault tech doc on it but since selling mine I don't know where its gone, I'm sure someone on here can send it across to you though I sent it too enough people lol
Well after using google to do some research I found some techinal data on the product, wonderful tool it is.
Apperently its a Monoethylene glycol based coolant so if my memory serves me right this is incorrect. The only stuff I found when I had my 182 was Comma Xtreme which is Organic Acid AF...
Well my tyre garage always says new ones on the front, perhaps its dependant on the drive (FWD/RWD) I would always rather have the new ones on the front myself on a FWD
Correctomondo.
Get a voltmeter on the battery when running see what its putting out
Also if they were cheap tat, its probably the ballasts at fault (a friends cheapy set does the same thing)
