Thanks for the comments. Been using Hot Wheels on my alloys this weekend and found it hasn't removed everything, so maybe a job for Iron X anyway.

Painted my front grille. Previous owner had glued it too the bumper, so couldn't remove it Also removed the wheels to properly clean and seal them with Planet Polish wheel seal. What a mundane job that turned out to be!

Is this safe? Can't see why it wouldn't be but want to check. It's much cheaper than Iron-X (£4 in Asda)

Any opinions on my current detailing routine for my Trophy? AG tar remover Bilt hamber clay Megs stage 1 paint cleaner AG SRP AG EGP Megs #26 Yellow wax This is all stuff I've bought over the years. Not what I've specifically gone out and bought. Do i need the paint cleaner and EGP stages...

For future reference, EuroCarParts do supply ABS sensors for the 182. The Bosch ones they list do not fit, but the ATE ones are the correct ones. ATE rear N/S ABS sensor. Part number: 417745750 £114 back in August, but they're showing as £58 online at the moment Also can't see why they would...

Update The dash reset cleared it. Cheers.

^^^ Will give it a try, cheers. I did wonder if Renault's had this function like Ford's do.

Car cut out on me yesterday morning (An ongoing issue I'm trying to get to the bottom of) However upon restarting this time, the fuel light came on. Fuel gauge showing 1/4 tank. Stayed on despite several normal restarts that day. This morning I had another cut out, restarted (takes a few...

How similar is it to the dash strips? I don't want it to look different to the dial surround

Could do with repainting the dash strips in my Trophy. Does anyone know the actual paint code or know of a similar silver? I want the same satin finish

Same problem here. I originally though it was something to do with the power steering switch, but it'll still cut out if the wheel is only half turned. Is yours an intermittent problem, or everytime you start the car?

You need a gutterless fixing setup for a Clio. Something like Thule 754 and the 1119 fitting kit. Looking into the very same thing myself at the moment as I need to get my bike around, but don't want to put it inside the car. At the same time, I'm worried about a gutterless setup damaging the...

I thought it looked familiar!

What did Buckley Tyres charge for an alignment check? A friend needs his Impreza doing and Demon Tweeks charge a fortune a proper setup

Anyone know what this plug is? Found it coiled up in front of the battery with a good length of wiring.

What would you recommend for a Trophy? Wouldn't mind spacing the wheels out a little, but don't want any scrubbing

This is one of the worries you have as a Ford owner. I didn't realise is well Renaults were undersealed - or how badly Fords were, till I viewed a Clio for a friend last year.

Not a huge fan of the Recaros either. They look great, but nowhere near as supportive as older style Recaros

Sounds great. I seriously considered your car too. Glad you've found a good home for it

Yeah. How well do they match the Recaros? Not a fan of the cup spec rear seats in mine

Any new interior shots? Interested to see how well the rear seats match the recaros.

Ok let me know

No particularly shiny photos, but thought I'd stick some photos up of my Trophy while out on a drive today

Would also be interested in a spare wheel when any of you guys have one free

Does anyone have a rough idea how much new engine/gearbox mounts are? My new Trophy has K-tec ones fitted and I find the vibration a little annoying. Am I best sticking to genuine Renault mounts? Or are there other standard aftermarket mounts worth looking at?

It's gone to a good home :)

Passed a RB 182 with stripes on the A55 near Hollywell around half 7 this morning. Anyone's here?

I did see your post in the "how much is it worth" thread. Without saying my actual budget, I'm looking for a good example with belts done, no issues, etc. And know what price range such a car will be in Please get in touch if you're serious Dan

Hi there. I've been on this site for some time, but not really posted while I flirted with the idea of going French. Previously only ever owned Fords. I've finally decided to bite the bullet an I'm on the lookout for a full fat racing blue 182.
