    I've just broken down and it sounded expensive

    Hi all, I'm at the side of the road waiting for the RAC to turn up. I was accelerating in 2nd and something in the engine bay went. It sounded to me like a belt of some sort. I lost all power but I pu my foot down a little and it revved up a bit but something was rattling around under the...

    Alarm part number?

    Hi all, I have a Clio 182 without an alarm, and I wondered what the part number is for the alarm system should I decide to have one fitted. Are they easy to fit? If not, how long would a garage charge to fit it roughly? Thanks

    182 owners in Kent/E.Sussex (T.Wells, Crowborough, Eastbourne way) who can help?

    Hi all, I have owned my 182 for about 4 weeks now. It is the only Clio I have ever driven, so unfortunately I have nothing to compare it to. I have some concerns about the handling/steering on the car. It tramlines quite badly, and feels a little unstable when accelerating or at high...

    Quick question about tyre sizes

    Hi all, Am I right in thinking that it is possible to put either 195 or 205s on the 182 cup alloys and/or 16" Turinis? What are the advantages/disadvantages of having 195 over 205s? Thanks

    Stupid question about jacking my 182

    Hi all, I've not had my 182 long so I just have a quick question about jacking it. I need to get under the back to sort out my rattling heatshield. I would like to jack the rear of the car to do this as it's a bit tight down there otherwise. I only have the little jack that came with the car...

    Hi all, My 182 currently has 3 x Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2's which are close to legal tread limit, and a practically brand new budget tyre (Infinity or something). My question is; shall I replace the 3 Michelin's with new Michelin's, and keep the budget (which is on the rear), or shall I...

    A belated 'I'm new'!

    Question about 182FF Xenons

    Hi all, I am a new Clio owner so please forgive my naivety on this subject; I'm just trying to make sure everything is as it should be :) Ok, so my lights look like this: Wrongly or rightly I assumed that the whole lot would be like the Xenons, a nice bright white(ish) light. Is...
