    Not Another 330CI.

    I was thinking about piano black and also this part http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190755614282?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649. But my phobia of scratches and finger prints would drive me mad on those shiny black bits. Thanks guys!

    Not Another 330CI.

    Thanks! A great club to be in. I have my eye on a few bits on ebay for the carbon trim. Won't be spending loads. Only if I get a good deal. The shark fin is fitted due to the bluetooth connection apparently. It acts as a signal booster for the phone accourding to some internet sites. It was...

    I thought only the diesels had swirl flaps? I'd better start reading up on this then!

    Not Another 330CI.

    I sold my Clio 182 last August and went back to driving my first car. A 51 plate Green 1.25 Fiesta Freestyle. After 3 months of driving the Green machine I couldn't take it anymore and needed a car I could be proud of. I've always had the e46 330 itch and browsing the classifieds day after day...

    toxic fumes warning light?

    Check the black rubber tube that connects to the intake pipe on the bend just before the thottle body. Mine came off and I was getting this light. Reattaching this pipe fixed it. It just pushes back on. I think its called a breather tube or something. The tube might of fallen behind the engine...

    What do you do when you come up behind another Clio RS on the road?

    I suggest hand jobs or at least a dutch rudder. No takers yet though.

    Welded Clio Diff

    What the f**k? Even with my basic knowledge of how front wheel drive and LSDs and the like work, this question makes absolutely no sense at all.

    Clearing snow

    Well according to an old guy I drove pasy who lives on my road, a metal plasterers spatula thingy is best. Could always heat it up before had as well. Sorted.

    My first experience in the snow! :(

    rear drum brake upgrade.

    No Clio RS has ever had drums on the back. Not even the Williams I'm pretty sure. Pictures of the car are needed please.

    Bit of oversteer from the Clio 172 cup the other night + Video of the action

    Please lets learn physics. Weight in the back will only serve to increase the chance of oversteer. Once the back gets momentum from going round the corner, you straightening up will cause the back to continue on the path it has gained momentum in. Thus leading to oversteer. Lack of grip (wet...

    What's the cheapest that's been paid?

    I sold my black 55 plate 182 with both packs and 37,000 miles on the clock, FSH including belts a couple of months ago for 4,500. Not bad i don't think. Might start looking for a cheap/bargain 172/182 because im sick of the 51 plate green fiesta im driving now. I die a little inside every time...

    Acura NSX

    Lovely looking car. Its amazing how irritating that pan right, no pan left video editing gets though. Also not JDM as has already been said.

    Snow.

    Rather then brush the snow off physically, i prefer to stand exactly 5ft from the front of my car and will the snow to melt. I find this doesn't damage the paint at all. It can take quite a while though so get up early.

    Powerline network adapters - anyone with experience?

    Can safely say i have had no experience of this happening when connecting through separate rings. Plugging into surge protected extension cables will affect the speed so always plug straight into the wall. On a side note, i have a 8 port gigabit zyxel switch plugged into the powerline adaptor...

    Powerline network adapters - anyone with experience?

    I received the Gigabit Netgear ones in Beta test form 2 years ago and they have been working flawlessly connecting my bedroom to my router in the front room ever since. I have a server, pc, laptop and xbox connected and all work fine with good speeds including xbox live gaming. I highly...

    To sell or to store?

    Neither option, just keep it on the road. The youngest a 182 can be is a 55 plate so its already done 6 -7 winters. I'm sure it will survive another one at least, fingers crossed.

    Boot wont open.

    The little motor that turns the dead lock mechanism in the boot, just behind the renault badge, has broken. You will need to get a replacement. You have two options. Either go to renault and buy the whole boot locking assembly for roughly £65 i believe and it might be worth picking up some of...

    Yet another race car build...

    Whoa, that white and blue rover at 1:32 wasn't taking any prisoners! Great racing. Would love to do this.

    Symtoms of a drive shaft on the way out?

    Cant comment on whether this is a drive shaft problem or not but my car makes this noise. Its very noticeable when in gear but not on the throttle at all rpm. It gets louder the higher the rpm and is still present when reving the engine in neutral when coasting along or stationary. I believe the...

    ANYONE know who's CLIO 200 this is?

    This thread is useless even with a picture.

    Oh right that explains it. I was watching without sound at work. Maybe I should turn my speakers on. Nice video by the way.

    Clio 200 - Revs dip when pulling away?

    My 182 always does this. I thought its just the way i have got used to pulling away normally, but might be an issue with the car. Don't know if the 200 is that similar to the 182 though.

    0-100

    I may be wrong, but from what i can see the engine hesitates in first gear as it goes past 5500rpm. It looks like it stops increasing the revs for a split second. Whats that about? If you look closely you can see the acceleration decrease for a second in time with the 5500rpm pause.

    How can I get rid of these scratches?

    I had a some lines of paint transfer on my bg 182 which i used Meguiar's Scratch X2.0 to remove. It took the white paint straight off and didn't effect my cars paint at all. Looked good as new after. Not sure how well it would work on that much paint transfer though.

    Pain in the back Audi (literally) need advice on 1*2 prices.

    The errors in this post have been addressed already. My post servers no reason other then to laugh at this post. LOL!!!!!!! As said by those more in the know, 182 Full Fat(182FF) is a 182 with both the cup pack and the spoiler pack options.

    Light Correction Detail - Black Gold RS Clio 182 - RaceGlaze Black Label!!

    Car looks amazing. Great job! Bit off topic here but can anyone comment on the exhaust this car has. I believe it looks like a scorpion 192 but might be wrong. It looks like the perfect size and fit. Heard that it has a nice sound but not to loud which is perfect for me.
