I've ordered this bad boy to get the van thru an mot and on the road 😂 Due tomorrow

They are getting a fresh refurb in silver soon!

Unfortunately it's all to common on these engines for garages to start throwing parts at them if they lack the experience in fault finding on them. I had a look at one a few months back, leakoff test showed one injector was pumped and another on its way out, drained the fuel filter, metal swarf...

So there is a connection higher up above the pinch bolt then? Could it be out?!

Just a bump for this, ive been pulling my hair out! so left the DCI rack in place, its not been removed. Fitted brand new genuine Renault inner track rods and rod ends both from a 182. if I centre the rack, the steering wheel is way out from centred, if I centre it either clockwise or anti...

Whos the blondie

£1000 Scottish pounds after lockdown 😍

Love that!

More progress today! The rear bumper has always had a crack and missing arch liner etc since I had it So I set about swapping it with the doner car I bought for its bumpers Removed the bumper from the 2004 and the brackets behind it were rotten!... Dreaded to think what I'd find behind my...

No abs warning lights on?

As above there is a flexible bit and s clamp but I didn't touch it and removed the filler as it's only a 30 sec job and s good time to clean behind it etc

4 bolts, 1x at each side and 2x in the middle. Just lower the tank on a jack. Just finished doing mine

Do you mean the dials are loosing power and going blank, all gauges not working or is it just your Speedo not reading a speed?

Gave the van a wash, just waiting on an exhaust arriving and its ready for an MOT! Hoping emissions shouldn't be an issue since diesels just get a smoke test...… 👹

No replacement for displacement

one of the 182s I bought came with a chavtastic powerflow, it used to make my ears bleed! I replaced it with a ktec centreline, what a joy to drive after that! I fitted a ktec silenced decat with it too

PMS air con and HPAS delete kit arrived today so got that fired on. Really nice, well made piece of kit, doddle to fit!

I've owned both various times. I wouldn't bother going to a MK2 172/182/trophy. I found the 133 more fun when you were on it, and the 2.0 a nicer car to drive every day, but they are still uncompromised and not very nice to live with so a bit pointless lol. A 197/200 is a different drive, revs...

Mapped by ecoboom you say....

Mine whined when first started from when the motor was new

Subframe should be identical, just drill the hole for the 4th mount. My van runs it's DCI subframe with the full 182 wide track

Engine bay fuse box would be my first port of call, pull the relays out, clean up with a bit of sandpaper and re insert. Also make sure battery terminals are secure

172 cup is the MK2 to own for me! I liked mine the best followed by my ph1 172 then my Trophy

One of my best mates was going to buy it and put a meg engine in it but he's a shite bag

There's a seller on eBay that sells febi bilstein rear beam bushes that come with new nuts and bolts for under £30, I bought a set purely for the nuts and bolts as Renault had them in back order and the bushes look fantastic quality, just as good as OEM. Doddle to change too

love it! anymore plans for it? im almost finished mine too

All MK2 use the same bolt https://www.renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/parts/steering-suspension/renault-clio-172-182-rear-shock-absorber-bolt-nut/

Cracked on with this yesterday as I've not had much time recently with everything going on in the world! Finally got time to drop the old rusty, drum wearing rear beam off! Spent all day rubbing down the 182 rear beam and painted it black and forgot to take any photos DOH!!! Fitted a set...

I love my 182 I just feel any time I daily drive it for an extended period of time it gets very tiresome. On the right road, on the right day, a few times a month it's fantastic but sitting in traffic it's loud, uncomfortable, unrefined, heavy clutch, heavy steering, needs revved to make...
