Hi guys Jumped in the car today, and first thing I noticed was that the heater blower was on full which wasn't how I left it. Anyway, tried to turn the speed down but it didn't do anything. Even if I press the 'off' button it just comes out at maximum speed! Tried pressing all different...

Anybody know where I can get the black rectangular Renault stickers which go on either side of the top of the grille underneath the bonnet? Mine starting to not look the greatest and would like some new ones. Ash

Drove past Rentech in Portsmouth today, and noticed a Lunar Grey R26R parked up. Couldn't help but pull up to take a couple of photos. So much want!!

I was in the Black Gold 182 as we went through Farlington and then Cosham. Red 172, Phase 1. Anybody on here?

Hi guys Recently fitted my Sabelt wheel and hub this weekend. I bought 2 resistors (3.9ohm) from Maplin and put these into the airbag plugs. When I connected battery back up and first started car, lights went out as you would expect and stayed out. Anyway, the last few days, the lights have...

You pulled up behind me at the lights coming out of Whiteley. I had the Black Gold 182. Silver 182 with 'K-Tec Racing' sticker across the top of the windscreen. Car looked good.

Long shot, but can anybody recommend where I can get a gear gaiter done for my 182 in Alcantara? Already been in touch with @Austin-182 but he no longer does this anymore, as I already asked him seeing as I have a few other Alcantara parts in my car already that were done by him. Would be...

You put your thumb up as you went the other way on the roundabout, and we both ended up going into the McDonalds. Nice motor.

Noticed today when I was changing lanes on the motorway a couple of times that something didn't seem quite right. Steering seems to be all over the place at speed. Difficult to describe, but if you were to go from 'left to right to left to right' with the steering wheel fairly briskly at say...

Hi guys I shall be fitting my ITG Maxogen this weekend to my Clio 182. I just want to be prepared. It will be a fairly easy swap I know, but my only question is regarding something called an acoustic valve? I've seen a lot of people refer to it when fitting panel filter/induction kits etc...

Hi guys Just noticed of recent that one of my washers on my 182 with xenons has started leaking washer fluid. I could replace it, but wouldn't mind fitting a set of colour coded washer blanks instead to tidy up the front end, prefer the cleaner look. However, my one worry is what would happen...

Guess that was you I passed this morning @Paul172sport ? Nice car.

Hi guys I have a 2005 Clio 182, and have just purchased a Ph1 172 shift assembly (for the gear knob). I plan on getting this fitted soon, but would like to order a Yanoo Stiff Shift first to fit at the same time. Which version do I want? Bearing in mind I'll be fitting the Ph1 172 assembly...

Hi guys Bought a Ph1 172 shift assembly on the weekend, mainly because I want the gear knob (see below) to fit my 182. I would like to get it powdercoated black/anthracite to match my interior, instead of the standard silver/grey. Is it possible to just remove the gear knob? If so, how? Just...

Hi guys Going to be doing a suspension refresh on my car soon, with OE cup dampers. I was going to order genuine top mount kit for both sides too, and cheapest I can find online for genuine mounts is about £75 for a pair. But I have been considering solid top mounts. I know the most popular...

Flame 172 with silver Turinis parked up along Francis Avenue in Fratton not long before The Rutland Arms pub. Was driving past and only saw it last minute but looked quite tidy.

Hi guys Been on this forum for a while, but have never owned a Clio, or in fact any kind of Renault before. I have wanted a Clio 172/182 for ages, and have always kept my eye on the market. Anyway, a very tidy Clio 182 with low miles came up, in Black Gold and with both Cup packs (FF model)...

Hi guys Just wanted opinions on where I can get an exhaust system fitted in Hampshire? Picking up a cat-back system tomorrow, and will be purchasing new exhaust mounts, fitting kit, and also a new lambda sensor over the next few days. I do have my car booked in at K-Tec for this coming Saturday...

Pulled up behind you at the lights this morning before I turned off left into Titchfield. I was in the black 182.

Since I bought my 182 a couple of weeks ago, it has always had a slight hunt on idle. I have read people say it is perfectly normal for these to have a slightly lumpy idle, but it just doesn't feel as smooth as I'd like it to be. Anyway, last couple of days, I have noticed when the car is cold...

Can anybody recommend a good detailer in the Hampshire area, nearer to Portsmouth the better, but would be willing to travel a bit? Would like a good paint correction session on my BG 182. I would be keeping my car clean myself from then on but just initially need it detailed, clay bar, and...

Spotted along the main road next to Sainsbury's near the Shell garage, you were heading towards Eastern Road. I was in the black 182, we looked across at each other. Could have been just a red 182 but pretty sure it was a Trophy. Had a roof rack on too!

Hi guys Trying to decide on an aftermarket exhaust system for my 182. I don't want anything too loud as I am not really into that, but would be nice to have something a bit more sporty particularly when booting it. Have considered the following so far: Milltek cat back (resonated) Pure...

Hi guys Just wanted some inspiration/ideas with removing rear seats in my 182. It has the Trophy Recaros at front and want to just remove the rear bench completely. However it is my daily driver and only attend the odd track day. Has anyone done this and covered the back with carpet/mats etc? I...

Hi guys. I have been a member on ClioSport for a fair while, but have never actually owned a Clio, or any Renault come to that! Just today picked up my FF 182 in Black Gold, with full cup packs and Trophy Recaros. So just thought I would introduce myself! I will get some pics up of the car as...

205 Tyres and Lowering Springs on 172 Cup.... Issues? Hi all I am looking to replace all the shocks on my 172 Cup soon, and also fit a set of Cooksport or Eibach Sportline springs (leaning more towards the Eibachs). I know the standard tyres for Turini's on the Cup is 195/45/16, and this...

Just wondering, really like the look of the aluminium gear knobs fitted to 197s (genuine Renault Sport ones) and wanted to know if it would fit on my 172 Cup?

Hi, New to this forum, recently acquired a 172 Cup. Tyres are due a change very soon, just wanted to know people's experience with certain tyres on the Cup, which are better than others etc. On most of my previous cars, I have run and been very happy with Yokohama Parada Spec 2's but these are...
