    Syncros, Clutch or Cable?

    It really does sound the same as what happened to me mate and using the correct stuff solved it but likeI said I dont want you wasting your money. But I very much doubt its the clutch cable youd be better off spending the money on the castrol IMO

    Harness question

    Aftermarket belts just seem a bad idea I bet whatever you do will never be as safe as the stock ones hence renault spending thousands getting the setup just right. But if your tracking it i suppose you dont have a choice.

    Syncros, Clutch or Cable?

    In my experience yes, But the boxes arnt to good anyway so perhaps its going to need some tlc. But id try the castrol stuff first its only gunna be 25 quid or so. I reckon itl make it quite a bit better. (it did mine anyway)

    what do we think to these bits of kit

    there b****cks its just going to make the car run rich. Let the temp sensor do its job properly.
  23. M

    what does your 182 run like when cold

    I believe its because the variable timing isnt activated until the coolant reaches a certain temp. A remap can change this so its activated from startup.

    Syncros, Clutch or Cable?

    I have never used 75-90 so I cant comment how it feels... I'd hate to watch you go and waste a load of decent oil for nothing so I cant say for 100% But the correct oil (viscosity is a must) Havn't seen a fully synthetic 75/80w before though... Mineral seems to suffice. I mean did it...
