Result . Easy , cheap fix ?

My rear heat shield had coroded through in places and a couple of the bolts had snapped off completely . I'd already put larger washers on the bolts that were still useable . I covered the heat shiled with this CT1 sealant / adhesive and stuck it back and it's been fine since and no rattles ...

Is it creaking loudly if you turn the steering wheel side to side when stationary ?

I buy all my cables for whatever I need from this seller on ebay . Top quality and good prices. Below is just an example. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FLAT-CAT6A-S-STP-Shielded-500MHz-Ethernet-LAN-PC-Router-Internet-Cable-RJ45/263614016288?epid=1277485665&hash=item3d609eab20:m:mfXwf6olG8j2mi5Y7J8bRmA

Welcome to CS. If you pay to become a full member you'll have access to all the forum , parts for sale etc ........ or you could up a wanted ad . There's probably a good chance somebody will have a full interior knocking about in their garage .

Ouch ! At least it's sorted now and you can drive it with confidence ? and shouldn't need any more major work for a long time .

You sure you've got the correct springs ? They don't need compressing , just drop the rear beam down pop in the springs . Might help if you put a pic up of the springs you have.

Basically doubled his money in 13 years . Not really an investement for any potential new owner as it's gone way past its ceiling price.

I wonder if that half a tank of petrol is 13 years old ?

I think it's just the pic that makes them look like they're plastic. The ones in my 182 were the felt type you mentioned , I had the same felt type in my 172 also.

Like @Vaughan said . They're made of some felt like material , and they're pretty s**t and can split. You'd be better off buying something like this flexible neoprene tubing . Work out what size you'll need diameter wise . Just an example below...

Ahhh yeah you're right . They're oval on the airbox end and round on the other end . On the oval end there are like some little lugs that sit inside the holes to hold them in place . If you get the right size tubing they should be able to sit inside and not fall out . Or you could put up an ad...

Big oval one runs to the acoustic valve , smaller round one is just an air feed iirc . I think the smaller round one is 50mm , you can use a round one on the oval side , you'll obviously just have to make it fit . Some people remove the acoustic valve altogether .

Rocked about 5 different versions you mean lol .

There are 2 intakes , 1 round 1 oval .

Ahhhhhh right . I can see why the battery would go flat . The new switch has sorted it then ?

Maybe it's something to do with your battery being knackered ? Why it went flat in the first place ? I know you said you jump started the car and charge it , maybe it's not holding a charge so causing something weird with your alarm / hazards . Just a thought .

I've got 2 front J&R rings fitted , they've been fine . If you try and get the old rings off , who's to say they won't be slightly out . You're only splashing out £2.25 each ? , worth trying them in my opinion.

Sounds like alot of faffing about for a Rusty ring ?You've got new discs , you might as well stick on some new rings . Cheap as chips . https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RENAULT-CLIO-SPORT-182-REAR-ABS-RING-REAR-ABS-RELUCTOR-RING-03-05/130604352304?hash=item1e68a04330:g:7kUAAOSw0exaPaEG
