These are the guys to listen to mate !! lol ^^^^^^

Did you do anything in regards to fuel pump? just guessing as i cant give a diag with out looking at the car but it sounds like either fuels running back or not pulling through correctly ? Is there any difference in fuel pumps from the 80 to 100 dci?

on the passenger side (n/s) yes the boot has a metal casing around it which bolts to the gear box and seals it, iirc the metal cover has a seal around it ! id check that and obviously if the boots split ! When you take the driveshafy out it will throw all its oil out aswell unless you jack one...

Seen you a few times now, mega mega clean one !! looked epic !!

Thanks very much :D Thank you :D its coming along now :D detail it soon look loads better Haha i knew you'd mention that !! to be honest i was slobbering over the wr1 ;) then realised there was a gap in traffic and moved off :D lol never heard it from outside but alot of people are...

Just a quick update , Got my brakes this weekend :D courtesy of 182 clio racer on here :D They shall be going on along with the new manifold when i have 5, was planning on next weekend , but maybe recovering from missus' 21 birthday haha !! Also going to fetch some new Floor mats and a...

and the 4 pin is over !! a small pin/ screw drive and GENTLY pull them in , to the same as the rest are sitting !

its the wiring, the top pin for a start is miles out needs pulling in for a better connection and then each needs checking , second are the lights your fitting the second photo ?? or are they the ones coming off? if they are going on be warn they look cheap so prob wired cheap !!

Looks a good start mate !! nice and tidy car !!

Got a few photos ! being waiting for the weather perk up take it get detailed , so did a couple of the car dirty (mate in his type R wanted a few really) , and my mainfolds come so thats on soon , and i fetch my brakes tomorrow :D photos as soon as they are finished :D Manifold , slightly...

After driving both and being in both i personally think youd be very disappointed ! Clio tropys are absolutely awesome , but the focus is awesome too ! if you need to down grade then yeah trophys a good car , but out of choice, the focus does it alot better IMO . many will disagree but only you...

Im from staffs aswell mate i do alot of running around ill note the reg if i see it ill be straight on to you mate

Cheers mate ! ive got my new upper inlet to go on soon a long with some brakes so im hoping to get a look see if it is the bigger one !!

If your on about a second air feed to the airbox, other than the original ( the one in passenger wing ) then i cant see why not, more air guided to it wont do it no harm but realistically you're more than likely not goin to feel a difference to the standard air feed ! 2bh though mate id stick...

possible bad connection on the tester? or a valve issue? not sitting right ie bad valve seat or bent !

i read it in the book and was like oh, used it ever since ! haha !

saw me last minute and had a double look ? lol i was in the other 182

The main kick is at 5k yes the variable works at 1450 but he won't tell that now will he? As I said it should still fairly nippy below 5k ,admittedly yeah fuel likes are plastic , so won't perish but seals may still perish distort etc and a fuel leak is a big thing look out for ! it was a...

If you want peace of mind I'd do the lot , you can't say do brake fluid unless you know the boiling point etc personally when I bought mine I did oil , filter , sparks ,gbox oil , brake fluid , wipers, coolant etc just so I know it's done no more hassle ! Each to their own !

Ahh thought it would bend with the arm ! Lol lucky by sound of it ! Fingers crossed for you mate !

Thank fook ive been saying that about mine for a while it feels floaty but handles like fook still , guess i know what i need order nice one !! lol

Depends id still ring the testing station who did the last test , and maybe take the car down may jog a memory ! its a fair on mess up if i customer had there car MOT'd with me and id added 100k to the mileage they WOULD DEFIANTLY bring it back , so unless the clocks have been swapped ? maybe...

Glad you liking it mate ! it should drive better now its fueling right ! nippy little cars !! have some fun in it !! Brakes are the best place start IMO , some brembo HC discs and pads from G172 on here , then like you say some decent tyres , cooksport springs and youll have a seriosuly sorted...

Its a pain but the way they look at it is , if youve had a accident (regardless of fault) you are more likely to be involved in another one (again regardless of fault) its silly like you say you were just in the wrong place at the wrong time but all they do it look on a scale and add it up ...

:lolup:

eek unlucky mate :( more than likely lower arm , roll bar , maybe hub, strut, track rod + end and drive shaft subframe depends if your lucky or not ! if it needs the lot , id get on parts section as not cheap for everything !! without seeing under its hard to guess what's bent and what's not ...

As for interior i think so yes, you sit in the car everyday :D i gotta say i really like the standard 1*2 seats ! think for day to day more than enough !!

Agreed my 172 hada standard system and everyone thought it had a back box cause it was boomy ! all OE just not renault !!

Would be worth checking the DOT code next time , as that will give you a indication of the tyre date ! for example DOT 3302 is , the 33rd week in 2002 ! gives you an idea , if its still on original back tyres chances are mileage is genuine although id contact the last MOT station as they have to...

Agreed any excuse :D My old iceburg 172 And my current Titanium 182 gotta love them :D
