I agree, change everything or don't bother :)

Yep, all from the Mk2 ph1 (1998) to the current 2007 Campus (Mk2 ph4??) are the same :)

Mine's still attached ;)

Yes, 1.2 8v

Agree 100% Deb, maybe he asked and maybe he was told it had an alarm...either way this is all speculation and we're getting away from the OP's point... :)

Insurance policies are based vastly on assumptions. Admittedly it's down to the policy holder to confirm or deny these but away from this forum how many 182 owners would know where to look for an alarm? ;) I'm not sure which company/companies you are referring to Deb but in my experience I...

Ok, ok lets put it another way... The OP bought what he believed to be a UK 182. He insured it as such and if he was asked about the alarm at any stage by the insurance company he would (I presume) have said it has one. Now it turns out that it's an import it may not have one. That's the...

One of these at a guess mate :)

Bull? Sorry Deb but have you ever tried insuring a Grp16 car in the UK without a Cat 1 alarm? A 1.6 isn't the same as an RS Clio :) Insurance companies will presume the 182 has the standard Cat 1 alarm fitted unless told otherwise, which they wont be if the owner isn't even aware of it.

Iceburg silver at a guess mate.

Ok, cheers for the info guys I shall look into it! :)

Just for reference the leads for an 05> Clio are circa £100, the £30 leads aren't compatible ;)

No, nor do I have a well ;) Was thinking of an amp actually, is it really worth it on door speakers?

Sorry should have said, no underseat capacity due to storage tray and CD changer. Although guess i could lose the tray if needed.... What is an Alpine swd 1600 Matt?

Ok so I have a decent HU and all four door speakers are upgrade to a decent level to get away from the shitty paper ones fitted as standard. I can't afford to lose boot space but I crave bass! lol! How/where can I add bass staying away from my boot? :)

lol @ banana, throw one over! :rasp:

No probs, anytime :)

Brake pedal switch is a switch mounted just above the brake pedal under the dash, not a sensor as such but if mis-aligned it will throw up the three fault LED's you list. Engine management wont have anything to do with CAT back system as there's no sensors after the CAT. It could be anything...

Yep, same as mine then. 99% certain it's the brake pedal switch Marie :) As for engine management.... ;)

Engine management could be a separate issue then, but like I said i believe the other three are linked to the common problem of brake pedal switch. Do they come on after long periods of driving or at motorway speeds etc?

lol, calm down guys ;) Although the location of the air filter is somewhat suspect as I guess it will get dirty very very quickly unless it's behind the arch liner in which case it will surely be starved of free air?

Strange one that then Marie, could be an ECU issue in which case I'd get it to Renault ASAP with the warranty looming! :) Does the car behave differently when they're lit, bearing in mind you'll lose ABS, ESP and traction/cruise control.

Where is the air filter now?

Very nice Giles, really growing on me the 197's! In fact I've just booked my second test drive for this weekend... :o

I can get the part number if needed but it's a kit, not just one particular seal.

Check rear cluster earth point, it's behind the drivers side cluster (i think), check it for rust/corrosion and check it's tight.

The brake pedal switch can be adjusted yes but it's a bit fiddley. Dealers often do them free as it's a 5 min job if you know what you're doing.

Yes I had it happen on my 1.2 and it was about that price to replace :dapprove: Solder if you're capable but I took the key apart and it was tiny so didn't bother!

Service, ABS and ESP lights are the symptoms of the brake pedal switch as already mentioned. Mine was sorted under warranty but it can be done DIY if you prefer? As for the "engine shaped" light, is this coming on at the same time as the others or independently?

Aye, very true!
