I tend to drive it fairly quickly, but not racing around. I have to feel the 5k kick at least once or twice a day! :evil:

Yes now you mention it I did see a Trophy on that road. I pointed it out to my girlfriend who didn't seem that impressed! women :rolleyes:

I'm from Portsmouth, but my girlfriend lives in Syston, so I was just up for the weekend to see her. I was at Loughborough Uni for 5 years, so I know the area pretty well.

LOL! Girls just don't understand! :D

OMG that was me and my missus! We were looking for the Shell garage on London Road as the Uppingham one was shut. I didn't notice you as I was looking out for that speed camera!

He did my 24k service a few weeks ago - top quality service! Can't recommend him highly enough! :D

Isn't the rear one a Renualt-only job? About £6 from a stealers.

Yeah it's a kind of five-sided allen key job. I've lost mine so I just jam a normal allen key in there and it works fine.

I think Nik and Ady on here both have Pro Speeds on their 182s, and they really seem to rate them.

Looking sweet matey. Are those Renault seat covers I saw in your car? If so, where can you can hold of them?

Same here - they look alot neater imho :D

I thought the rear diffuser meant you could do away with the rear spolier? I see those Clios have both!

I've just emailed Renault Cust Serv's to complain about my shocks. I'll see what they say.....

If they can be bothered to change it!

It's like trying to get blood from a stone tbh. I've just about given up and resigned myself to the fact that I'll have to go elsewhere for shocks. Oh well........ at least now I've got no excuse to not get coilovers! :D

My NSR shock absorber has blown. The car is 2 years old. The Renault dealer is saying that the shock is no longer under warranty, and so they won't change it without charging me. Are they right, as I can't find the terms and conditions of my warranty anywhere? What's the point in a 3 year...

Yes you can. Mine is in as we speak having the rocker/cam cover gasket replaced under warranty. They've taken 3 days about it, but that's another story! :rolleyes:

Found it - cheers. It's actually quite comprehensive, with some great photos too.

Well I've seen some Pioneer direct replacement front speakers designed especially for renaults, which have the mid for the door, and the tweeter for the dash. I wonder if somebody could write a little "how-to" guide on how to remove the top of the dash, then I could get these and fit them! :D

I'd love to know how you do that then! :)

Yeah I think you did alright there matey. Enjoy it! ;) :evil:

iirc you'll need to remove the dash. A pain I know - I want to replace my tweeters too, but I'm far to lazy to start taking my 182 apart!

I fitted mine on Sunday. Can't say I've noticed that much difference TBH. Maybe slightly improved throttle response, but it's hard to say.

Does anyone else get that annoying whistling sound? Usually above 60mph or so?

If you get the extra GPS antenna, phone them and ask for the longer one, which is 5m, otherwise you'll get the 2m one, which is no good. They're the same price.

The first thing I bought for my 182 was Renault roof bars so I could go biking. The best thing about having your bike on the roof is that everyone assumes you're going to be going really slowly, so the look on their faces when you you blast past them is brilliant! :cool:

To be fair - someone needed to set the record straight! ;)

I love the way my Xenons illuminate the white road markings and make them sparkle. You never get that with Halogens. Like someone said earlier - loving the way they "ping" on with that little flicker!

Right. I've just given it another go, but pulling the bulb holder doesn't seem to be working, and I really don't want to break anything!

Ok I'll give that a go this evening. It's just so hard to get your hand in, especially on the offside, with that air-con pipe in the way! :mad:
