Okay so. The black one is off the cards. I wont be, as some one above so perfectly put it, "throwing the dealer under the internet bus" but theres something fishy about this black one. All seems fine until you read more into the Dealer who doesnt appear to be very 'amicable'. Also, if you look...

Thanks for the reply. I think all of what you've said is in line with what I was thinking. At the end of the day its going to be a second car and a bit of fun. But I just want to know everything before parting with my hard earnt £! Which car are you referring to? Landymans or the Black one...

Now we know where the rainforest is going!!!

Wow. Where to start! All good points. Ill check. The headlights ive done on my previous 182 and theyre easy done. I quite enjoyed doing it. Points for negotiation! I know tyres are an important one. Ill keep an eye out. thanks. Also, good point about the water pump. Ill check that too. I...

That's only a couple of hundred off. Easily done from a garage IMO (he says before even seeing the car lol!) Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

What do people think of this? Half tempted not to post this in case someone beats me to the post...

Oh for sure. But my fondest memories of wheeler dealers is my dad yelling at the tv at the end about how they turned a loss because of all the Labour cost they never show lol Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Unfortunately my 182 is up for sale. More details in the description on ebay. Been tugged around by someone already by winning and then not paying! Hopefully someone on here realises its worth and it goes to a good home...

Sorry for hijacking the thread and taking it off on a tangent folks. Going to see how things go and probably sell as is. Any one interested, pm me. Cheers, Will Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

The problem is fitting it. Talking to a mechanic says its a horrendous job. Have you done a swap before? Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

So we've basically established renault are great at making fun cars but not so great at making them survive very long lool. Spoken to a local engine builder. He says to not bother rebuilding top end. Whole engine is about the same price. Im relatively handy with a spanner and have a begrudged...

Lads, Yesterday my 182 clio's cambelt went snap. Aux belt took out the cambelt which is a right sod as I had them both replaced 2 years ago. Anyhow. Few different options as to which way to go with it but I need advice as to what to do. (And hopefully a bit more sympathy than the Mrs gave me...

"Oh I thought it would be a hundred quid....I cant afford that....." Been there, got that t-shirt! Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Wow. Good that he admitted it and agreed to pay! Who knew there are still some decent people out there! Shame about the damage nevertheless Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Having seen a few scraped cars, looks like silver paint to me! Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

The saga continues. No cruise control. Pulled the panel out as the switch seems to stay on when not in its housing. Still wont engage! Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Okay all sorted. Took both lights out and saw that they were actually covered in white residue. Clearly from moisture at some stage. Halfords sell electrical contact cleaner (other brands are available) and after cleaning them up with a screwdriver being careful to clean both sides of the female...

Just having a go at this now. Followed your steps of taking them out one by one. Weirdly it doesnt matter which is one is in, they both cause the fog light to flicker. Any ideas? Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Cheers! Lets hope a half hour job sorts it! And nothing in parts. Wishful thinking maybe! Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Okay thats brilliant. Ill tackle it tomorrow and see how I get on. I like your method of taking one off at a time to work out which is the culprit. Ill post once i find out my results! I have a suspecious feeling that i will need a new switch regardless but ill have my glass half full! Sent...

Funnily enough, i do have this problem. Going to clear it up tomorrow as I have a day off. Any ideas whats best to clear it up with? Ill take a look online but i didnt know if you had any suggestions. As the switch isnt working correctly ill be ordering another! Sent from my SM-G955F using...

Update - Not much progress to report tbh. I pulled the switch a few times (warm and cold days) to see if I can get the cruise button to work. Had some luck bending the clips as someone else reported but it never stayed on. Weirdly, the speed limited (button pushed down) seems to stay on but...

Sorry if im hijacking the thread here. Ive tried a OBD2 scanner and no faults codes stored. If i switch ignition off and on again they go off for a few more miles. Tried scanning for faults with the lights on and off. Also tried modifying the switch and that didnt work. Its either the switch or...

Funny you say that. Im also getting the dreaded ABS/SERV light coming up after a few motorway miles. Which apparently can be the cars way of saying it cant tell where the brake pedal is. Could have something to do with it? Im pretty inexperienced here ill be honest! Sent from my SM-G955F using...

Cheers, ill take a look at the parts now. Shouldnt be dear i hope! Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Mine hasnt worked since i bought it 18 months ago. Whats weird is that the switch intermittently works by your right knee. But the buttons on the steering wheel dont do anything. Anyone got any ideas on a fix? Cant even find replacement steering wheel buttons online! Sent from my SM-G955F...
