This is something that I will be having done very soon by a mechanically minded friend as I know nothing!!
Does the fact that it has ABS make any difference in the technique to bleeding the brakes?
My mate knows older Ford cars very well but hasnt actually bled brakes on an ABS model so...
To be honest I had no problems with warranty with my stainless steel exhaust on. Only a few months before warranty run out I had light up on the dash which was one of those sensors on the cat which they changed no problems... I imagine you would be ok..

On the phase1 172 didnt they have renaultsport written where lockwood is written on the above?
Is the ph1 172 the same dial set up as a 182, straight swap over?
Looks nice mate this is something I have wanted to do to my 182 is it easy enough to do? Ive had the dash off before so would be half way there!! How easy were they to fit?
Rob.
Lol yeah I know what you mean just not sure how much I need to take as funds are limited to an extent but......
Things I most probably will want to buy are as follows,
Front discs and pads + fluid and oil and filter, are the main things!!
Is the card an option though?
Rob.
I have been looking but may have missed it somewhere but what time will cliosport be going round the track?
Also can I use my switch card at the traders stands? :-)

I always use v power, I did once fill up with normal unleaded just to see and I think there was only about £3 or £4 difference between a full tank of normal and the mighty V so thats why I only use v power.. Cost me £44 to fill up yesterday.. I didnt notice and performance differences between...
Hi need to get front discs and pads changed soon, im pretty happy with this price but is there better?
From BBPT 182 high carbon front brake discs £55.88 vat included..
Again from BBPT 182 standard front brake pads £30.60 vat included..
Also says £9.40 delivery charge
Im not really...
Hmm... I know what your saying if done wrong then it could cause the holes to not line up properly..
Maybe if you left it bolted in place to the engine as it is, nice and tight, then squeeze the black casing together with the mount still in there or after you have fitted the new mount I reckon...
I was told by bb tuning as I see it on a couple of there cars they said you would need to remove it and squeeze it together either by a clamp or vice maybe?? Also Omar (ohms??) did it when he had a 182 I think... Seeing as you are changing this mount you might aswell do this mod also....
Whilst you are changing this engine mount is it worth squeezing the black casing together that the mount sits in, so the rubber bits of the new mount touches both edges of the black casing resticting it movement? Ive seen this done on a few 172/182s does it make a noticable difference when...
I do remember seeing a link to a site somewhere but cant remember where??? I have looked on ebay but there not the right ones, need an exact original....
Cheers ears

I took all dealer stickers out of the rear window when the car was new 3 years ago including the Elf sticker. Now I kind of miss the Elf sticker and am wondering if I can buy thse from a dealer and how much they are??
Im just on 28k and still have the original discs and pads.. Pretty sure the pads will need doing soon though on my 24k service sheet renault have said both front and rear to be 70% worn, I find this a little odd as I wouldnt imagine the rears to wear as quick as the front. Ive just recently had...
