    172 engine into 182?

    Relativly simple few minor differences in the breather plate but you can swap that from your old (182) engine.

    Wishbone replacement

    Stops vibration and cheaper to maintain than a spherical bearing.

    Quickjack lift

    Presumably it locks to negate the use of axle stands. Pretty expensive for what it is tho you can get two post lifts for that much.

    BG Clio 182 - Amos

    If its the 200 cell magnaflow? that should be fine so I guess lambda too.

    Wishbone replacement

    Pinch bolt can be a bit of a prick to get out if its never been changed, handy to have a ball joint pickle fork.

    Carbon canister.

    Worth doing? Or new car?

    Yeah be cheaper to just buy another with a ticket on it.

    Vibration/Humming Noise

    Tbh seems kinda mad he didn’t ask if you wanted new bearings anyway given the hub was off and the parts relatively cheap.

    Vibration/Humming Noise

    Did you not replace the bearings?

    Modifications

    Decent set of tyres and well maintained brakes. Otherwise save your money for something faster.

    Not going to watch the vid but I quite like that camo green colour, needs a better plate and lose the strap tho.

    Timing setup issue

    Use a feeler gauge on the inlet cam to take up the pressure should slide side to side after that.

    Lambda O2 Sensors on 182

    Solus is shite when it comes to these cars, try clearing the codes on a different system if you have access to one.

    Clio 182 needs a few bits!

    Looks like a 182 with at least one of the cup packs, as it has the cup spoiler. Measuring the front shock bolt spacing (60mm) would confirm if its FF or not.

    Aftermarket replacement radiators?

    The amount of pointless differences between the 172 and 182 is ridiculous.

    Parts discontinued by Renault

    Ah must just be Renault Wolverhampton then. Bought one from Pure motorsport instead was about £50 cheaper too.

    Aftermarket replacement radiators?

    Nissan one's fit ok, just remember to keep the nuts to mount the fan off your old rad.

    Anyone used a 172 Sportex exhaust ?

    Aluminised steel construction so its going to rust if you plan on keeping a while.

    Towing car capacities and driving to races

    Probably better off buying something old for a couple of grand to use exclusively for towing.

    Dan's black 172

    By the looks of it they didn't use any timing tools. 🤣

    Bonnet release mechanism

    It only goes through the grill, unclip it from the bumper and you should have enough wiggle room to get at the mechanism.

    Bonnet release mechanism

    It’s only a couple of plastic clips holding it under the bonnet. If the cable has snapped then no not really, if it’s just jammed you can try moving the bonnet while someone else pulls on the leaver.

    Clio 172 Engine Out

    Few videos on yt of how to do it. If you have access to genuine tools and plenty of time then it’s worth a bash.

    Bonnet release mechanism

    Bumper off then you can get at it with a long screwdriver.
