I took these down in Sussex near Brighton a week back with my Canon bridge camera. Only point and shoot pics as I haven't worked out or tried adjusting anything yet.

Weird that ECP don't sell them as a mate bought the gasket from them weeks ago. Apparently silghtly thicker too creating a better seal than the genuine Renault item. I'm refitting the cat and was gonna pop into ECP to buy a kit
The same problem happened to my 182 a couple of months ago, i checked the plugs, fine, unplugged the injectors one by one and all were ok, swapped ignition leads, still running on 3. It turned out to be a faulty coilpack only a few months, it wasn't a genuine part from Renault but a Eurocarparts...
A friend of mine does cleaning/detailing, i guess as a hobby so i let him loose on the Clio last Sunday. Foam, wash, clay, machine polish, wax etc. Anyway, pics below. Turned out well i think and was also a chance to have the wheels off and clean the wheelarches and coilovers.

Cheers, pretty sure it's opposite Thorpe Bay yacht club.
Davo172, it has the Spax full coilover suspension. Sitting lower than OE, not too crazy as its an everyday car. Although I've been offered a set of 16" Pro Race 1.2 wheels in black so I'd lower it a bit more if I went for that option.

I've just fitted OE rear discs today, non OE rear discs were fitted in April by the previous owner and the bearing on the drivers side has already spat its dummy out after only 5 months.
I change as a pair, my Renault parts guy priced new rear bearings to me and they were only £4 cheaper...
Been down to Matt Codered to have the new OE rear discs and deflector washers fitted today. The non OE bearings lasted all of 4 months! Rule of thumb for me is always fitting genuine rear discs and Matt had them fitted in less than an hour, so a big thanks to him
That happened to mine a while back, the ABS sensor wires weren't clipped back to the bulkhead and ended up melting on the exhaust manifold throwing up the lights. Intermitent to start then permanently stayed on. I had Matt from Codered replace the wires between the module and the sensors (from a...
Every wheel in those pics above were painted with rattle cans bought from Halfrauds, none of them were lacquered. As they were track wheels they were just rubbed down and sprayed either in the store room or the back garden.
Re: Petrol Blue 182 Photo Shoot (Mega Pixel Heavy?) Added Pics
Really appreciate ALL the comments in the thread, thank you. I've been out again this evening, i thought i'd head out a lot earlier as it's really sunny with little or no clouds. Anyway, i won't bore you again with too many photos...
I've owned this Petrol Blue 182 since April this year and this is the first time i've taken some ok photos of it as i've just bought myself a new Canon bridge camera. So i gave it a wash after work and headed out to 3 locations not far from me, i'm sure some will recognise the location in some...
They never do when the sun isn't about, i have one (for sale too) and the last 5-6 weeks it's looked brilliant in full sunshine. Typical british weather means you hardly see it at it's best which is a shame
Painted a few sets of wheels over the years with rattle cans

Top work Austin, i was about to purchase a new pair of seatbelts (£150) but after reading your thread and seeing the after pics i'll be giving mine a damn good scrub!
