Apologies if this has already been covered … I’ve been on here since 2004, and occasionally log on for info/ parts/ a nosey. Each time I’m faced with spam galore! I’ve screen recorded it. Is it my device, or has everyone got the same issue viewing the forum? Shame as there’s lots of good help...

Hello! I’m having issues with the EML light and the coil light (under the fuel low light) coming on, and loosing power. It’s scanning as throttle position sensor track A. I’ve changed the pedal and potentiometer to a good working spare, and also cleaned the contacts on both the throttle body...

Hello! Last June (2023) my 182 passed MOT with a new ‘Cat2u Cat’ The car has done ~900 miles since, and having re MOT’ed for this year, failed on emissions. The garage said it’s the cat. I’ve removed it and sent it off under the 2 year warranty (week 5 now, still not heard back) I was...

Please give me some inspiration for my weekend task… I’m replacing the lines from both rear callipers to the axle with BRT kit. These do away with the small link pipes (I’m told) How on earth do you get these unions undone?! Rustier than titanic. Bought an 11mm flair spanner, added WD40...

A nice little Racing blue 🚙 l have not seen the car yet as I’m still working abroad, but the owner seemed genuine over chat, he had both sets of keys and a service book, so took a punt and sent Mr Shiply off to collect it 200 miles down south & back. Mileage is fairly high but has been running...

Don’t usually bother with spotted posts, however I couldn’t help but notice a new neighbour has moved in 200 yards away, with four 182’s parked on the drive!🤣 Come on own up...

I have spent hours going over the 182 fixing the normal leaking foot wells. Scuttle drains x 3 Sill drains Heater matrix seal in scuttle Bulkhead seal Front arches, side skirts stripped. I can happily wash the car now, and the footwells remain Dry.. However, dampness starts to form beneath...

My 182 washer jets are terrible, and failed the MOT on this among other items. I’ve took out the bottle, and washed it all out, I have purchased new jets, 2 pumps and new bung rubbers. However the wiring looks to have been butchered at some point? I seem to have 2 cores (green and white)...

Does this gear linkage look bent to you? I’m trying to compare it to a google image, mine has a lot of turns/ twists, and does hang down quite low under the car. It’s going into a specialist soon to be looked at, so it maybe a good idea to buy a spare one ready to swap. (172 mk2) Thanks

Hi all! I’ve been on this forum since 2004 and have been through more Clio sports than I can remember! I think 2 mk2 172 full fat (now this is 3) 172 cup, titanium 182, racing blue 182, iceburg Clio phase 1, white 197 and a nimbus 200 which I sold 2 months ago for a Mercedes. Well I have just...

Hi, Is anyone available in the Manchester area to fit a ball joint before Thursday for me? I should have the part by Tuesday. My MOT garage don’t sound too confident.. Thanks

It just makes a clicking noise. The interior light also flashes on/off and steering not locked appears on the screen...

I am finding various part numbers for Clio 197/200 lambda sensors. The one i need sits near the manifold. A Bosch one will be okay, or genuine Renault. Thanks

Picked this up a few weeks back. I have had a couple of 172's and a 182 in the past, now decided to move onto 197. GW with speedline wheels, cornering lights, recaro's and cup suspension. So far i've pinched the bee sting arial off my old car, and debadged the CLIO lettering on the boot lid...

Afternoon! I'm attempting to swap a broken drive shaft for a replacement. The big nut on the centre of The wheel.. Is this a reverse thread? It's V tight! Rob

Outside my flat in Castlefield.. ?

Sold my 182 two weeks ago, had six clios in total since 2004. Thought i would buy something 'different' Only tend to use the car the odd weekend, so something expensive wasnt really on my options list.. Ended up buying this for £peanuts! :) I have some strange addiction to these cars!

The problem is, the heater blowers fail to work, the panel lights up fine. I have tried following a guide on here about linking out connectors 1 - 5, which has made the blower come on 'full pelt' Does this confirm the 'Heater Resistor Panel' is at fault?

Can i remove this bolt whilst the car is on the ground? Reason being i need a part number for the bearing below the rubber.

Hi Cs Ok, just got back from travels and trying to get my car road worthy again. The clio had an MOT this morning and failed on the following: FAIL: -Offside front (broken) Coil spring (I have standard springs and suspension) OTHER Advisory Items: -Offside rear position lamp...

Had a great weekend away with the g/f over valentines, staying in Keswick, Cumbria. Found a good excuse to venture out and play on some roads :D The B5252/5289 (Whinlatter pass) between Keswick and Whitehaven, via Buttermere and Braithwaite was stunning! Taken with the crappiest camera phone...

Before: During: After: Got them powder coated at the Leeds Wheel Specialist. Chuffed to bits with the quality of finish! :D

During the week i stripped down the front bumper and top slam panel in order to fit a new air con rad. The problem i have now; the Air con pipe shown on the picture rub's on the slam panel. It's very tight! Have i fitted the panel correctly? The bloke came today to re-gas the system and noticed...

Has anyone had problems with their shift light not illuminating once nearing the rev limit? I don't recall mine illuminating to acknowledge a gear change. My 172 used to come on around 6k revs. The 182 however, when you start the car up, it illuminates with the other ignition lights, but not...
