    Whining Noise....

    I had exactly the same problem on my 182, had cambelt and auxbelt changed and the noise was gone. I don't know what part was causing it but it sounds like it is definitely aux belt related.

    My Clio is faster than it feels, is yours?

    My other car, peugeot 107 feels amazingly quick.......then you look at the speedo and you're doing 37mph. Stupid loud exhaust and engine that loves being raped ftw

    My Clio is faster than it feels, is yours?

    Sit in a Bentley GT more like ;) 70mph feels like about 40! I rarely get caught out by the clio tbh, takes too long after a ton and rattles to death.

    Racing Blue Caliper Paint

    The darker colour halfords caliper paints are actaully quite good but I would stay away from the yellow and silver, thin as water, needs about 10 coats. Ive got Hammerite on mine, just cleaned and sanded calipers then 3 coats. Thing is; when Im using the brakes alot it can go a bit soft, I'd...

    Clio - Girly car?

    Get it all the time at uni and tbh it is a girly car but who cares when it drives like it does! Its simular to the old: "What car do you Drive?" "Oh I've got a clio, but its a Renaultsport 182 Clio which means it has a 2.0l engi......." Watch them instantly loose interest the second you say its...

    [PC/PS3/XB360] COD:MW2 Official thread - Contains spoilers

    I noticed this playing just a min ago, got AC130 and 7 kills but never got my next streak. It's done this quite a few times now. Predator and Sentry have both added to kill streaks though....mmm gay.

    [PS3] Modern Warfare 2 Night!!

    Stupid PSN, I havent played online yet!!! I was quite happy to spend my pre town drinks time infront of the PS3 with a bottle of jacks while everyone makes boring chit chat in the living room and is forced to down shots...............now I have to join them :( PS: If its fixed itself Im on PSN...

    Put a big F*CK OFF THIS IS MINE sticker on a copy at work today (sainsburys), if anyone dares sell it I will personally see to it that they get a baguette up their ass.

    Engine temperature

    Is the needle supposed to reach half way and then stay there? From a cold start mine tends to: Jump up to almost half way within 5 minutes, then drop a few bars, raise again to 1 or two bars below half. It will only ever reach half way if I am really booting it, as soon as I drive normally the...

    172 Track Upgrades

    How do you rate the whiteline ARB? I've already got Brembo HCS, braided lines and DS2500 (fairly happy with them, not tracked yet) and am looking at the ARB. Are front and rear strut braces worth a look?

    Lack of power at low revs ( 182 )

    RS Tuner remap did make a small difference to low down torque, worth the money. Its just the nature of the car, no basic mod is going to radically improve it As said above, just depends what your previous car was. Mine was a Turbo Diesel and a Turbo Petrol with shove from 1.5K so the 182 seemed...

    Insurance on Z4 2.5 -Why so high!?

    Z4M is a different story..........My tutor at Uni has one and it sounds great. Not been out in it mind. To be fair, during the test drive I had a rather fat sales man in the passenger seat, must have weighed 20+ stone so Im sure that blunted performance.

    Lack of power at low revs ( 182 )

    Im not surprised by your GF's comment tbh. You've really gotta adapt to how you drive them. I almost SOLD my 182 during my first week of ownership because I thought it was the slowest piece of crap! At town speed (as in "s**t need to change lanes quickly) its impossible to get any sort of power...

    Insurance on Z4 2.5 -Why so high!?

    Aye, its not that much for me to insure either, strange you can't get covered :S Looked at getting a Z4 last year, drove one and wasn't overly impressed anyway tbh, don't think your missing out on much.

    Stolen dust caps... Anti theft dust caps any good?

    Had the richbrooks on a previous car after my black ones disappeared. Looks good with silver alloys and had no probs for 12K. Im not putting them on 182 alloys....would look naff. Watching a mechanic change my tire during a service he had them off in 2 seconds with his thumb. Holding the centre...

    Do you feel the need to "prove" yourself in your Renaultsport?

    I must admit the clio makes me drive more like a tit than my last cars. The GF has commented many times that I hold the revs longer than in the Cupra R...guess the reason being that the clio is gutless at anything under 5K. Don't do it intentionally, I guess I've just adapted to the engine.

    wiring a sub up

    Does your head unit have pre-amp out? If yes, just plug it in and get a line to the battery. Depends what sub you get, active or passive, as to whether you need other things. If you have standard head unit, buy an attentuator (£12 from halfrauds), wire into speakers. Continue as above. Easy.

    Operation Flashpoint 2

    Op flashpoint 2 is driving me f**king INSANE. Worst problem yet: I complete two levels, only to be presented at level 2 when I come back to play it....ummm? wtf? Sometimes I love the game, bullet cracks and sound effects are brill, graphics can look quite tasty at times, crap at others. The AI...
