ROFL Well as you can gather i havent been under the front yet !! but i can assume it has some sort of anti roll bar set up maybe not drop links but the arb will connect using bushes which could have play so as good as really !! and i give up on cant imagine why new people are put off when they...

Agreed i can check all the obvious things ie drop links etc but i dont have a emissions tester to hand ... or a head light aim ..... or a brake roller tester

Just thought id ask for luck haha as i hate MOT time even as a mechanic, ive spent a small fortune on my Clio in the last couple of months getting it ready for MOT its having a caliper tomorrow and getting tested!! Wish me luck boys and girls as i maybe on here happy or sad tomorrow !!

Looks right too me mate !!

Dont rise to the weapon !! he sounds like a tool and hes had a new car if its recently !! (Which prob means he cant drive it yet) hes a recipe for disaster ! If you do decide to go make sure you drive carefully !! And get someone to film it ;)

Saw you at Tesco in trent vale today at about 5.30? lol looks very clean !!

I park miles away from everyone and yet you can always grantee that someone will park millimetres away from my door when i get back :@

How do you mean stuck down? as in you pull the cable and nothing happens ? or do you mean the cables snapped? Only reason i ask is if you pull the cable get a friend to try and lift the bonnet while you pull the cable sometimes a but of gentle persuasion does the trick !! If not then yeah...

Due to current circumstances I might be forced to sell my 182 :( Im REALLY gutted but needs a must and all , I wanted a honest opinion on what its worth ?? I'm a mechanic and no expense has been spared, its had what ever its needed Its a 04 reg 182 with 94k miles , fairly good condition , had...

As said in the title im doing the cambelt dephaser and aux belt in the next few weeks on mine , was wondering if the water pump is external on these ? 182 sport by the way? It doesnt leak but if its driven from the cambelt its worth doing im sure !

Depends where its broken , what engine ? etc sport ? 172? im asuming its not a 182 as if they quoted 260 for a full system you must have robbed them haha !! seams a little steep but them again thats kwik fit !! Try http://www.eurocarparts.com/ to get a price on bits!!

Cheers for the replies guys ! Think the cams will jsut have to wait then as after markets arent exactly cheap at the moment ! thanks tho !!

http://www.k-tecracing.com/search_results.asp Youll do well for a cheap exhaust as they dont exist! ive just had a stainless for my 182 and its amazing , theres a cheap stealth for the 172 made of mild steel but IMO id pay the extra and have stainless cause 2 years down the line youll have to...
