Hi edde the non cupped 182 and the 172 are 58mm bolt spacing. Now I know that the shocks will fit but because of that extra angle (2.5 to 3mm) of the bolt holes once fitted the shock will be more at an angle so the camber wont line up properly.
Now this can be resolved with camber correction...
Why is it that company's related to this site advertise on there sites, group buys etc that the non cupped 182 is the same fitment as the 172's?????
Why is it that Ive gone to another company related to this sight to have some 172/non cup 182 shocks fitted they say they do not fit the non...
I have a cat back Magnex on my 182, not that impressed by it to be honest...
The first one I had the baffles went in the centre box after about 5 months so got a replacement one from them.
I had my new one fitted yesterday and the left pipe sat lower than the right and was completely off...
Ive just got back from BBPT thinking I was gonna have the Eibach pro dampers fitted to my non cupped 182, turns out they dont fit the RS models!
Dissappointed yes!
I spoke to GDI and have read posts on here saying they fit the non cupped 182 which turns out is not the case.
The bolt spacing...
Hi Lam7r sorry no advice to give but the baffles in my magnex have gone also only done a few thousand miles with it aswell!!!
They have sent me a whole new system now but I have to cop the bill to have someone fit it again!!
Are these exhausts actually any good??
Rob.
Ive got a new Magnex exhaust and am days away from ordering some shocks for my 182. Normally I would get these done at Elite in Essex but they now only fit products purchased through them now...
Has anyone used these recently?
Will BBPT fit my stuff for me or do they only fit products bought...
I dont think there was anything wrong with the original clutch I just happened to mention it to the tech when I was having something else done. and He said they could change it coz it used to get a bit juddery once warm thats all really I just thought what the hell get it done!
He used to own a...
To be honest mate I am settling to that explanation but I would have thought it would have burnt off when they did the test drive???
I also noticed that on the coil pack looked like it was all wet maybe with oil??
Ive just gone to pick my car up from renault after having a new clutch fitted.
As I started my car within a few seconds of start up I noticed some smoke so got out popped the bonnett up and there is smoke coming from the back of the engine I suppose rising from the manifold area.
It did...
Im pretty sure its all part of it mate driving straight and cornering!! Obviously a bit firmer all round so will take the lean out of the corners...
Rob.
I have a non cupped 182 in the suspension department and have had eibach pros for a while.
To be honest you would really want shocks to match as it still rolls a fare bit when cornering drop wise it is noticable and imo looks good.
Rob.
P.S you will want shocks to match.... :-/ ????
Two 10mm size screws set right back you will need a long extension from a socket set to reach them. There are 3 holes but only the two from the left hand side hold the screws.

Try the vent at the drivers side if you tap around that area can you recreate the rattle? if its the vent try closing it and tapping it see if it goes thats what mine did!
The book does say 4.75l but I recently changed my oil and put the full 5Litres in and stll on some surfaces the in car level shows it need more 1 extra mark!
So I would say a little over 5litres
Rob.
Strange how they seem to recognise there is a problem but cant find it if they have checked everything??
Do you have different tyres on the back to the front then?
did you notice it after they fitted the new tyres?
Like clio chris says if you can change/ borrow some other front wheels see if it...
I have absolutley no problems with warranty only the other month did I have the drivers side air vent replaced coz it rattles when open car is 2 years old and lowered and zorst!
Can you explain where the rattle comes from its behaviour etc?
Rob.
Is it a problem that suddenly occured at 6kmiles? have you hit/bumped anything etc??
Rob.
PS why, if already your tyres are ok would they want to change them, what reason?
Its right by the M25 not sure which junction though! I find them very good there not had any problems with them only good things, give them a call.. Not on MSN mate.
Rob.
Ive got the exact same problem with my 182 its not a major issue ive been told but am getting it done regardless coz its under warranty.
Not sure what they do exactly but I know it involves 2 rubber o rings and for the 1st 100 or so miles gear change will seem a little stiffer.
For peace of mind...
Hi mate im having my clutch replaced in a couple of weeks the problems I have are exactly how you describe. (18k)
I notice it worse when im on off the bite moving the clutch pedal slowly whilst in traffic is very springy,creaky,sticky etc.. Or when im reverse parking etc...They said they will...
Ive just posted on your other post that is a complete joke honestly! Why on earth is it sitting like that can you take some under car shots, mounts etc?
Rob.
Ive just bought from them £688 with £300 excess 182 with cat back magnex and eibach springs.
I was well happy to start with coz the young lad made a mistake and qouted me £488 when I phoned back he told me he had quoted me wrong!!
10 times that is an outrage!!!!! Surely its simple, you have a problem with your exhaust they agree to replace it, they fit the new one end of!!!......
Id get straight on the blower to Renault UK this is completely un acceptable!!!
