yeah i would expect that to last that long, the pads on my car have loads left on them but the car hadnt been used very much and when i got it the discs were pretty rusted up, they have cleaned up with driving it but not totally!
thats why i think its best to replace them!?
hi mate, so your standard brakes went at 10,000?
my cars done 16,500 now, the brakes work ok but there not great, so im going to get some new discs & pads this week!
where abouts in the north east are you?
Dean
the car brakes pretty well, doesnt pull in any direction when braking heavily just i noticed the discs are pretty knackered so i want to replace them!, as said the sliders might need looking at when replacing the discs and pads
paul wont be doing any mods this time!
where did you get them...
I think my 182 brakes need replacing as the car hadnt been used that much when i got it, the pad doesnt appear to be touching the full surface of the disc.
can anyone recommend any good standard replacements? what make to go for and how much!
thanks Dean
just wondering is there any safe way of removing the dealer stickers from the back window of a car.
wouldnt mind removing the one on the back of my 182 but having done this in the past its damaged the rear screen demister strips where the sticker has been!
cheers Dean
Hi im wondering if anyone can give me any tips on fitting!, just got a genuine cup splitter as the one on my 182 was cracked, iv removed the cracked one and im just wondering how it will be best to fit the new one.
should i used the original holes in the bumper (from old splitter) to fit the...
right got a new car which im thinking about going to see, but again this is 200 miles away!
05 Reg, £9k, 1 owner, uk car, silver both cup packs, 16k miles, 1 months tax.
yeah im having the same prob no cup packs but theres barely any within 40 miles of me on the trader, most are over 80 miles away but the auto trader isnt very accurate cars always seem to be around 30 miles further away than they say!
not looking to spend any set amount of money, iv got around 10k to spend, just saying iv been to see a few, iv seen an 05 reg for 9k, 55 plate for 10k and a trophy also for 10k and they hav all be full of dents or badly kirbed wheels and scratches, the 182 i seen on a 55 plate looked like it had...
Well in the end i didnt buy the car, didnt think it was that well looked after, had a fair few scratches on it, dent he told me about was more like a crease about 10" long, and the tyres were some really cheap replacements.
the boot looked like it had been painted as there was like a finger...
lol all my mates are pretty keen on them, im pretty clued up on looking at cars so il probably still pull it to bits on things im not happy with!
yeh i will walk away if im not sure, gonna see if he will knock some money of to get an alarm or something if i do like the rest of the car!
il...
well i did a hpi and it came back telling me the car was grey not silver lol so i thought id ask the guy and he said it was from motorpoint but it was a uk spec import from france.
i got the vin from him was planning to phone renault with it tommorow!, i think it must be registered with them...
ah ok i see, suprised nobody came to view the car! id have bought it lol, looks real nice too!
yeah i seen that liquid yellow one forsale, i dont know what to do now, part of me is thinking well it came from the sale place as the rest of them and another part of me is thinking its an import...
yeah i know what your saying Marie, thing is iv been to see a few 05/55 plate 182s and a trophy in the last month or so which have all been pretty poor and iv walked away!, now im starting to get desperate lol, i really want a titanium one with both cup packs and there havnt been any that have...
yeh i might see if he will knock abit more of for an alarm or something!
anyways im going to see it on tuesday and will buy it if its a good car!, iv decided that if its a decent car i might aswell have it as its been made where the rest of them have!
thats with a bit knocked off lol, he wanted 8k, to be honest i only want that colour and there hasnt been that many forsale in silver with both cup packs in the last month!
might try and get a bit more off as he didnt tell me it was an import and it didnt come up as an import on the hpi it...
cheers for that il have to ask the owner.
im wondering what people think of the deal, its a 54 plate titanium 182 with both cup packs, 1 owner, 24k miles just been serviced, new tyres on the front. car looks in mint condition apart from it has some kirbing on 1 wheel and a tiny little ding in...
the car has both cup packs, its from motor point and came from france,
it doesnt have locking nuts but hes unsure if it has an alarm, how can i tell if its got an alarm,
it came with 2 years warrenty and is now out of warrenty
i just found out it was an import as the guy told me, it didnt come up on the hpi!
im not that bothered to be honest, il have to check if it has those things id be put off if it had no alarm!
