    After 5 long months...

    The 182 is back on the road. New engine fitted with all belts and dephaser fitted, new ball joints, new battery, basically its had £1700 thrown at it. Going to run the engine in for a 1000 odd miles but it feels so good to have the 182 back after so long. I'll get some pics up at the weekend...

    Well that went well...

    Peeps - what do I do ?? 1. i knackered the first engine!! 2. My mechanic mate then helped me and fitted another engine + belts etc etc (cost me in total about £1500). Then that engine goes as my mate did't use the right tool to tighten the cambelt. Thanks (never do business with a mate). 3. I...

    First experience the V6 today

    Managed to get a drive in a V6 today and it's confirmed to me that I need that car next. Was amazing, the sound, the smell, the sense of occasion. What a motor and I take my hats off to Renault for making it happen. I'm saving for one now and keeping the 182 for the missus. Managed to have a...

    The 182 is being fixed next week

    Got the 182 being picked up on Monday to go get fixed by ren7oaks in Kemsing (Kent). Hopefully they'll be able to find why it won't start and what made the engine just stop randomly. Been with it now for a month and it's driving me crazy. I really miss driving it and after 4 years that just...

    If I needed a new 182 engine...

    where would be the best place to source one ?? My car is going in soon for the engine to be stripped but am thinking I might bosh a new engine in so I have peace of mind. I'm never selling the 182 now I've decided :)

    What to do

    Basically a few weeks back I managed to knackered my engine on the 182 - my fault and regret not checking oil etc etc. Got another engine off pistonheads for £450 cash (apparently a 40K one? who knows), then car went off to one of my mates who in fact worked at the renault garage I got the car...

    Help - please - 182 issue

    Basically had another engine put in my 182 recently as I was a fool and didn't check the oil. The 40,000 mile replacement engine was fitted but soon realised that the ticking noise was the dephazer pulley messing about. I drove it for a couple of weeks with the annoying noise but then the other...
