Drop a new engine in, can pick one up for £300. If you do put a new engine in then get all the belts and everything done, as the engine is out it will only cost you parts.

No lol

No I'm pretty sure it's just the end of the fuel rail.

Serious question: Can you remove the head by removing the Dephaser and just moving the belt out the way? Or do you have to completely dissemble the car like have the belt changed completely? As a rule I think it's bad to re tension a belt.

Diesel also acts as a lubricant where petrol does not. And we all know what happens without lubricant ;)

Got a load of spare if you need any. Took them off my old 182 before I scrapped the block.

Throttle position sensor. It's on the side of the throttle body, tells the ECU the position of the throttle (Obviously) Common fault on the 1.2 16v Clio's not to sure about the RS. Try changing the throttle body see if that helps. Can pick up a second hand one on here fairly cheap.

Coil pack and plugs first thing I would have tried to be honest.

Welcome mate. I only live down the road in cirencester and am always up Swindon.

If it gets hot does it stop working. May be due to the fact we being having fairly hot weather recently, most things electrical get hotter than usual.

Just fill it with unleaded and throw a bottle on injector cleaner in there. Job done

How much diesel did she put in ?

Mine is under the edge of the roof lining, down the drivers pillar and then fed behind the dash (Taking the dash off is a simple job) then into the head unit.

Sounds like a good idea to me ;)

Just to add my input :) I use copper crease on the runners just to stop them seizing :) nothing worse than squeaky brakes. I have sure the calliper is wire brushed down, even gone to the extreme of filing pad edges down so they move freely. Wouldn't recommend that though.

My clutch is on about 2k and still going strong ;) Doesn't the clutch seem to get heavier the more miles it has done? Could think of a better way to word that.

And change the water pump for an extra £50 whilst the aux belt is off :)

To be fair if you can get the engine out yourself you will save a lot of money on labour when getting the belts done.

Followed me through town then had a little blast up the Tetbury hill. Didn't see any CS markings but though I would see if you was on here. Was in the Black Gold 182 :)

I got a set of 182 springs if you want them? £40 + Postage

Then just turn your Bluetooth off on your phone and leave the stereo on.

Yeah if I listening to music via Bluetooth then decide to listen to radio I have to stop my phone playing then it will be silent for like 20 seconds them the radio will come through. If I unlock me phone though the noise will still come through the parrot over the radio.

Mine does that to be honest ...

Because its K-Tec

12v battery ? I did with mine. Wired it all in then ounces I knew it was working found homes for everything and sorted the cables

Yeah cigarette lighter would be best as it them comes on with the ignition

Power how you would normally? I assume it's just 12v ?

Was going to say crank sensor. Friend was giving his 172 cup death down the dual carriage way then the car suddenly cut out. Thrust bearing had shattered and took out the sensor.

Wire it all up to test it works because finding a home for it in the car.

Fitted mine couple weeks ago, So simple to do. Makes it a lot easier for cable management if you insulation tape all the wires together in bundles, just make sure you zip tie them so they don't rattle. Best place for the blue box is up behind the hazard switch as the cables have foam wrapped...
