    182 Cat Mod - anyone had it done?

    Did you need a flexi in between or does the band offer enough movement out of interest?

    182 Cat Mod - anyone had it done?

    I welded a 2.5inch piece onto mine which slotted into a 2.5 ktec system fine with a clamp. I’d also consider speaking to him about the manifold-cat connection as mine was heavily corroded and needed replacing with new steel.

    Rust!

    Tbf phase ones are usually much worse somehow

    Rust!

    I doubt any rust will be that bad it's mostly a cosmetic thing, only worth fixing if you intend to keep the car a long time. It's generally down to poor paintwork by Renault, theres a few bits where they all seem to develop some rust, brake servo seems to be another for example.

    Rust!

    Filler cap is the usual suspect for rust on a lot of them.

    Vibrating noises

    Your call but I wouldn't bother it will only start rattling somewhere else, its never going to be that refined.

    Anti Lock Brakes Sensor?

    Check the abs rings first, they usually rust and split.

    Vibrating noises

    Rattling is a standard feature on the mk2 Clio just turn the stereo up is the only solution I’ve found.

    Halfords socket sets

    The one I got the old man for Xmas seems decent tbf, they had no issue replacing a ratchet even tho I thought there was nothing wrong with it I wish Wera would do some bigger sets tho, I’ve got a smaller one and it’s superb.

    Starting Issue - Not sure what to try next

    It wouldn’t I just assumed If the op ruled out starter issues first and it’s getting a spark, then fuel would be the next thing to look at.

    Starting Issue - Not sure what to try next

    It’s a little bit of a t**t to get at but definitely doable. There is a guide somewhere but I can’t find it, this thread has the information you need tho. https://cliosport.net/threads/starter-motor-location-in-f4r.713746/

    Starting Issue - Not sure what to try next

    If the starters stopping then it sounds like thats your issue, Remove the airbox and you can get at it. If its not the starter, sounds like it could be a low pressure fueling issue.

    Wheel spacer removal issues

    I've got that one it's useless for anything corroded tight I'm afraid. Hex shape socket, blow torch and a bigger bar.

    MOT advice - arb bushes and front hoses

    PH2 172 stealth exhaust - how many are there? and which one!

    Only really the Ktec for a stealth exhaust, but they are quite boomy inside which I think is due to the angle of the exit I’m going to look at getting one made instead when it comes to replacing mine.

    Durable electronic vernier caliper

    Mitutoyo or Starrett but going to cost ££££ But they are mega accurate and real nice quality. Might be overkill but I doubt you would ever need to replace them.
