Hi all just a few questions regarding my 182 if I may :approve: The car is lowered on Cooksports, and also has Pure Motorsport solid top mounts. Since I picked it up from the previous owner it has been prone to knock from the front end when turning or sometimes when hitting a bump. Was told this...

Saw you going under Devonshire road bridge! Now starting to see loads of 182's about Blackpool after picking mine up lol

Hi all, thought I would start a progress thread for my recently acquired titanium 182 from CS member Lawro. The car has already had a lot of love and attention so in terms on "needs" the list is very small! I also wanted my 182 to look pretty much exactly how Lawro sold the car to me so again...

Arctic 182 in Blackpool turning down Mythop road, followed me down Preston New Road Thanks

Hi all, just still getting to know my new 182 (Lawro's old one) and due to it being my daily drive and not really getting the advantages over uneven tire wear I want to remove the negative camber (1.5 degrees) that is currently applied using the Eibach camber bolts. Now unfortunately I don't...

Hi all! As some of you may know I am now the VERY proud owner of Lawro's old 182, before he parted with it the car was very well detailed and finished in Swissvax best of show. The car could do with a wash now as it had some motorway miles on the trip home etc. My question is how would I go...

Hi guys, I used to post on here a while back (not a lot though) when I owned a 182, sadly after 3 months after purchase the car was written off :( I also needed something a bit more economical at the time so got a Fiesta ZS TDCi. Miles have dropped a lot since (only do 4k a year now) so I am...

Been seeing a few 182's around Blackpool now and was wondering if any of them were members on here Arctic blue at the total garage on whitegate drive, and 2 different BG 182's both young male drivers, I got a nod of one near Preston new road if you're on here and remember lol

Noticed my rocker cover is having the factory standard rocker cover oil leak! Last place that did the belts was birchdown so pretty sure the fault wont lie there! Anyway Ive kept my eye on how much oil has accumulated over the past 2 weeks, and it doesnt seem to have changed at all Any ideas as...

Hi I am going to fit my decat myself when it arrives and want to make sure I have all the right parts prior to starting, I am going to order a replacement clamp and some high temp silicone paste, what else should I be buying? Thanks

My exhaust leak has returned within about 7 days of it being repaired so I want it fixed! The mechanic said the hangers are fine, so is the clamp so it is either the cat or the pipe that runs from it after the back box, I am going to get a scorpion decat pipe to match my backbox but was...

So I'm pretty skint at the moment so I'm avoiding driving with a heavy right foot, at all! I have discovered the miles left live readout and was a bit shocked to find it drops about 10-20 when I start the car! For example I finished my journey and it was showing 135 miles left, came to the car...

Hi all just a quick question, does everybodys 182 have clutch freeplay before the clutch actually engages? My clutch is "floppy" so to speak for about 1-2cm before it goes typical heavy renaultsport clutch and actually engages if you understand me Just making sure this isnt a fault and the norm...

Hi all im in the process of fitting my skoda splitter, I know I have to use self tappers, and cut the ends off to trim it to length, the only thing I dont understand is how it is going to sit flush when there are rivets already on the underside of the bumper where it is going to sit against?! :S...

Hi, I have a slight exhaust leak which turns to a super loud whistle when the foot goes down, upon inspecting it, it looks like the cat is hanging down a little bit, so with the car running I pushed it up into the air and the leak stopped and the exhaust system looked alot more level. To me it...

Hi all, got my car yesterday, so happy with it lol all the belts have been done by birchdown so no worries there, 2 previous owners, one of which must of been a member of this forum due to the sticker in rear window! Both cup packs, 70k miles, doesnt want for anything apart from a nasty exhaust...

Hi all, found a really nice 182 for sale, it's had everything done at the right time etc, immaculate condition, low miles (62k) but has had 5 previous owners, now the last owner had it from feb 2010 and I said do you remember what he exchanged it for, he thinks a type r, now that would make...

Hi all I think I may have finally found a Clio 182! Will possibly be going to buy this weekend after a good phone call today, only thing is since being on here I have read to avoid APEX springs like the plague lol and it would appear that this 182 will come equipped with a set of 40mm APEX's...

So took a trip up to Carlisle today to view a Clio 182 that over the phone was "immaculate" and had all its belts changed and a FSH, drive took just under 2 hours. Got there and straight away it became apparent I had yet again been lied to about mostly all details on the car! Headlights were...

Hi I have found a clio 182 for sale at quite a good price and only 60k miles, however should I be worried that the car had a new engine fitted last year? Or take advantage that I would be buying a car with a virtually brand new engine?! I plant to phone the garage when they are open to find out...

Hi all, the hunt is still on for my Clio 182, there is such a lack of black Clio 182's in the north west, and the ones that are here are too high mileage for me, I am of course prepared to travel and have phoned quite a few now to hear "cambelt and aux belt have never been done" seems like a...

Hi all Im due to be getting my 182 as soon as I find one I like, but despite a lot of searching, both this forum and Google I am still getting very mixed results regarding cambelt and aux belt intervals, what I seem to get on average is AUX at every 36k miles or 4 years, and cambelt at 72k or 4...

Hi all just though I would say hi and ask a few questions I'm from Blackpool, and I am shortly going to be getting a Clio 182, had a small handful of vehicles over my 3 years of driving, started with a 1.4 fiesta mk6, then moved to an Astra sxi 1.6, then changed completely and got a Yamaha r6...
