The rattles from the rear are most likely to be the parcel shelf, or the seatbelt which is attached to the roof. I had a passenger in the back and when driving along if you apply pressure to the parcel shelf it stops rattling, Also the seatbelt im sure rattles i was gonna get some sort of...

I feel that my steering is all messed up, i feel like im always holding on to the right side to keep it going in a straight line, aswell the steering wheel is definatly off slightly to the right. I too am going to get my tracking done in the new year and i do hope this cures my problem im...

Dont worry ive just discovered there is a guide in the diy members section......... Peace

I have to remove the top part of the dash to get to the air vents which blow onto the windscreen. The reason for this is that 1 of them is rattling and its doing my nut right in! I have taken it back to renault they sort of fixed it but it has now returned..... I would much rather tackle...

These are exactly the same thoughts i have! I have driven my mates 182 with cup suspension, it feels so much better through the corners and doesnt feel at all uncomfortable!!!!! BUY IT WITH THE CUP SUSPENSION YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need something on my 182 that will...

Cant say ive heard this on mine would you say i would no if i have it?

I consider mine to be a good one, the only problem that i have is the incapability of the dealers to fix the most easiest of faults 1st time........... EG: 1 of my headlamps stopped working took it back they fixed it, next day that headlamp was full of condensation, took it back. They then...

Hmmm, the other when i was flooring my 182 when i changed from 3rd to 4th it crunched and i am definatly sure the clutch was fully depressed........

You just press the red button to get it to the next temp you want, blue to reduce the temp. If you press the auto button this just means that it will return to what you had it set on before you turned if off........Does that help???????????????? Rob.

Cant say ive noticed this on my 182?????????

Is that definatly the exhaust coz my plastic engine cover vibrates at around the 4k mark?????

I had problems with my dealer (orpington) my new 182 needed its headlamps replacing coz they wasnt fitted properly causing condensation, it took them 3 attemps to get them in and all those times they kept ordering the wrong parts. I wrote a strong but polite letter to the managing director then...

I hadnt seen any up until the last few weeks. I went to Bluewater to a bit of shopping, i always park far away from the shops away from the other cars. As i got back to my car there was hardly any cars around apart a 182 which had parked next to me, same colour, spec everything......... Had to...

Do they just change all these bits then tell you, you owe £££,s!!!!!!!! Do they not say before they carry out the work? Rob.

I had mine for 2 years spent over 3k in repairs and servicing and i still wasnt happy with it, i give up in the end and bought a 182.

Lol, so true, still cant decide whether to go aftermarket though......... Im not really feeling the designs ive seen, i do quite like the K-tec system but until ive heard it.............. All i know is that i dont want a system thats too loud or pops and bangs when you back of the throttle, I...

Ok Tom that would make sense, its just that mine makes a metalic popping when its cold and i back of the throttle, wondering if this is the start of something to come.......................

Would this noise be apparent all the time or just from cold? Rob.

Mine has been doing this recently was gonna put up a post about it, It makes a horrible banging noise as you pull away was gonna see if there is some brake cleaner which might fix it???........ Rob.

Whats with the ariel?? I like that colour alot.............

I had this really agressive squeaking coming from outside it would do it when i accelerated and backed of again or engange the gears by just lifting of the clutch. Renault repositioned my exhaust and lubed up some part....... The noise sounded like it was coming from the front. Rob.

Whats this 6k free safety check all about then i havent heard nowt about this? Rob.

Sounds like mine mate if you rattle the drivers seat by hand it doesnt do it but the passanger seat does rattle ............

Toms tell us more mate what year, and mileage etc?? I had a valver before the 182 and apart from all the problems i had with it, it was a truely amazing motor, i would love to have another go in one!!!!!! Rob.

Im gonna change my oil at 6k now on 4, but when i asked my renault dealer they told me i should only ever use semi synthetic, all the time. Now from reading all the posts on here regarding the changing of oil for the 182 I am 100% confused by it all. I went into halfords and showed the man the...

Graham, with your number 3 on your list mine also does this. It is a metalic popping noise which is only apparent when revved from cold i took it to the dealer and showed them its something to do with the cat being cold, my mates also does this. Rob.

Spot on Andy cheers mate i will try the experiment soon. What dealer do you use? if they give me anymore gip ill tell them about the dealer tell them to speak to that branch, nothing is ever easy with my dealer....... Cheers again. Rob.

What problems have you been having Graham? welcome, Rob.

How did they sort the whistling mirror the dealer i use (ORPINGTON) Told me they cant do anything about that tried telling me it was something to do with the flared arches! Obviously i didnt beleve them.....
