Any suggestions or links please?
I had some for the Twingo and they were supposed to be white and they look a daft sparkly blue, disappointed. Took them out and put the frosted filament bulbs in that I had spare from when I had my 172 6 years ago...
As the fitment of the bulbs is so tight, I've ended up scratching the tip on every dipped headlight bulb I have fitted in the Clio.
And I was really careful with these. Not that scratching the tip makes much difference I dont think.
Bought a pair of H7 Osram Nightbreaker Plus dipped headlight bulbs for my 182 Cup last week off Amazon
£ 11 delivered which I couldnt grumble at :approve:
Fitted them yesterday, as old n/s bulb had expired.
Took me 5 mins to do the n/s bulb and 15 mins to do the drivers side as I found it...
Mmmmmm, yum :cool:
Liking the look of that a lot Clart.
Other than the obvious front bumper inserts which appear to have been resprayed (as have A LOT) it looks a cracking motor.
I was looking out for a Black Gold 182 with both cup packs but this looks sweet.
Although I already have a RB 182...

Like the sound of the black 172.:cool:
I had a monaco blue 172 a few years back (ph2) and I'm thinking about swapping the Gordini for a Black Gold 182 with both cup packs to stick a bit of cash back in the bank.
Me you & Toby should get together for a meet sometime.
Ive just bought my son (10yo) a Samsung Galaxy Tab2 7" (for Christmas)
In order to keep tabs on what hes buying and how much hes spending I was thinking of going down the Amazon AppStore route and just buying Gift Cards for him to redeem when he needs more ££
Instead of me having a colossal...

If you were using a scart cable before the maximum resolution you would have been able to get would be 576 pixels high on your screen.
HDMI gives you the viewing pleasure of 720 pixels or 1080 pixels depending on your tv.
The clarity of picture and sound should be LOADS better.

I had a 2005 EP3 for 4 years. Fantastic build quality, engine. Bullet proof for me, only "repair" was two ARB drop links on the last service.
Before that I had a '03 172. (3 years owndership)
Didnt miss the Clio at all once I had the Type R. Honda suspension and ride quality was a world...

You quoted me in October £439 fully comp, not protected.
Direct Line, esure and Admiral were all around the £350 mark with comparable excesses but INCLUDED Protected no claims bonus.
I applaud your attitude above in trying to get the bottom of peoples questions, and will be...
Ive just done both my RS's with Direct Line.
Cheapest of the reputable companies, with the lowest XS.
£ 323 for my 182 Cup. (full NCD, no speeding fines, but one claim just less than 3yr ago)
Followed you for a few hundred yards yesterday around 2pm (ish) from Meden Vale as I was heading toward Mansfield Woodhouse.
Looked very very nice - tempted to have a look on Autotrader for one of these now!
Like the cup spoiler
You could have asked on hear if anyone local to you has a Scangauge to plug in to the diagnostics port.
Then they could tell you what error codes its actually reporting as current, for free or a beer.
I think Renault still charge you around £80 for a fault diagnosis.
I agree though that your...
Driving down the high street past Morrisons archway and Santander, near the old Woolworths
I was walking so made the most of the exhaust ;)
Dont know who it was or what exhaust but it did sound a bit fruity alright. :eek:
Thats just your test screen to make sure all the parts of the lcd display are working
On your previous screen earlier on you have the 't' and 'h' fault codes
Get to that screen again and press the trip reset button on the dashboard in front of the speedo dial
it will clear these faults.

All the lights lit (shows if you have a failed LED).

I had a Monaco Blue 172, then a Civic Type R (EP3) and now have a 182 Cup.
Type R has amazing build quality, addictive rev hungry engine which begs to be buried into the limiter every time you get in it.
Traction is poor in the cold/winter and the rain.

dry = great,

The mechanic came around from the local garage, slipped the old battery out, fitted new one.
Started first time, had a good long drive out in it and have done a few short trips to town and back.
Seems to have done the trick.
Mechanic says if the battery is flat and you jump start it, if the...
Need to get the battery out of the car and test it for capacity before buying a new one (tried charging with an optimate but still not enough juice to keep the lights on)
Is there any detriment to removing it for a couple of days??
The immobiliser light is still flashing - wont bugger up this...
All I hear is good reports about Mick.:)
If I thought I'd get over there without breaking down, or he'd come out to me I'd use him.
I had the Gordini in at my nearest Renault dealer a couple of weeks back and they were sh!t.
They forgot to screw the ignition coils back in the top of the engine...
Havent got a meter, tried to borrow one last night but no luck.
The charger indicated that the battery was maintaining charge.
However when I tried to start the car I had nothing.
Turned the lights on and they just went dim and everything went off straight away.
So I'm now suspecting the...
Cheers Nick
Im based in East Mids, I'll get my man at the garage to sort it out.
Its booked in for Wednesday.
The Optimate charged the battery fully last night so I'm suspecting Alternator probs.
I said its one of two things.
Battery unable to charge.
Alternator.
Thanks for the reply, I'll see if I can get enough charge in overnight.
£150 fitted or part only?
Been away in the 182 all week on holiday.
Not missed a beat really, drove the 2 hours back and parked it away for the night.
Got the car out this morning, mrs went out for a spin, 60-mile round trip and parked back up in the sun, half on the pavement outside the house, as we were going to have...

Although he did get 50% off voucher because he bought the car from there:)
Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news
KumKum, the video of the A110-50 is great! :cool:
ClioIV RS looks like megane 265 from the rear end.
The rather LARGE diamond will take a bit of getting used to.
