    Opinions please

    Some old bloke (in some kind of Nissan people carrier?) reversed into my car when turning outside my house last night in the rain (God only knows how). Dont think him and his wife were actually going to stop, only me running out seemed to make him stop and eventually get out of his car, before...

    Pre-cat Lamda - failure symtoms.

    About a year ago my EML came on. Got it checked and apparently it was the pre-cat sensor, turned it off and that was that. The car then failed it's MOT on emissions a month or two later, but the tester told me to bring it back and warm it up properly next time and I did and it flew through so...

    1.1/1.2 viewing advice

    Going to view a 1.1/1.2 16v (phase 2) tomorrow and I've just realised I dont really know too much about them in comparison to a 1*2. I'm thinking of blue smoke, clutch height (although they tend to be high anyway dont they?), service history, leaky gearboxes, gunk under filler cap, engine...

    Track Rod Ends

    Just picked two new track rod ends up from GSF and there's a grease nipple in the packaging of both. Does the grease nipple need to be attached and the joint greased, surely it comes already done? Or is it just so it can be maintained over the years? Never bought any track rod ends for...

    Steering rack make

    I need to determine what make off rack I have on my 182 FF as I need new track rod ends. I've done plenty of searching on here and read quite a bit about them, but what I haven't found is; where is the stamp/sticker that would tell me on the rack? Need to know whereabouts as I've got no pit and...

    Total noob, advice needed.

    Hi, I'm pretty new to all this and I've searched around on here doing a bit of reading (and still reading) but I'm wanting to know if someone can answer me a few questions or give advice. Basically I have a black 182 with plenty of swirl marks and light scratches and I've also got some front...

    Steering knock

    Been trawling through threads to see what kind of things could be causing the knock on my steering, but wondering if anyone can give any clearer answers after a description. Basically there's a knock on the steering of my car (54 plate 182) when turning either way at low revs/barely moving...

    Engine management light flash

    Just been out in the car and it was the first time the car has been moved since Tuesday. I drove normally in town for about a mile and then going round the roundabout into Asda the engine management started to flash for about 20 to 30 seconds and then went off just before I parked. I've then...

    172 Cup outside The Railway pub in the Town Centre this afternoon about 4ish. R**CUP was the reg I think. Black 182 possible 53 plate at the Lakeside about 4.30ish, heading towards the roundabout before the Keepmoat Stadium. Women driver - looked as if it had been washed and loads had been...

    Decat question

    I'm looking into getting a decat for my 182 for several reasons. Firstly as my cat seems to have a bit of a rattle at 4k which is gradually getting worse, also as I'm thinking of getting the car mapped and people tend to mention on here it's only worth it if you have inlets/exhaust(have)/decat...

    Front brake caliper (182)

    Does anyone know of the cheapest place to get one of these either reconditioned or new? Eurocarparts have quoted me £78.60 which include a surcharge of £18 apparently. My local place has quote £75, plus a £10 surcharge but they reckon they may be able to beat that as they have two other...

    Rear brake caliper questions.

    My cars just failed it's MOT on having little or no parking brake on the drivers side. A few weeks ago when it was in for a (poor) body repair they also done the passenger side hand brake cable. The guy said when he test drover the car that the rear brake seemed to have been sticking on and...

    Cheap code reader....

    Got a problem keep coming up in the cold weather with my engine management light and the last time it came on it got switched off and lasted over a year (was the pre cat sensor IIRC). Anyway it's been on twice in the last few months and I figured I'd get a cheap code reader rather than a RS...

    Liquid Yellow - Peterlee, 7.30ish

    Not sure what it was - 51 plate, but had phase 2 rear bumpers and some Renault Sport (or similar) stickers on the rear quarters. Couldn't see much of an exhaust so that and the plate thinking it may possible be a copy, but from what I saw it looked a good one anyway.

    Few spots in Peterlee/Coxhoe area today....

    First - Asda car park around 1.40 pm a black 54 plate 182 with a cup spoiler looking a bit worse for wear. Looked to have a Cliosport.net tax disc holder in it, could be wrong though. The next was about ten minutes later on the A181 Wingate area, heading to the A19 junction. Not sure whether...

    Gearbox filler/butterfly washer?

    Put some more gear oil in my 182 on friday and when I took the butterfly type plug out to put the gear oil in it looked to have a washer sticking to the gear box around the filler hole. By the time I got the gear oil ready to put in and a bit of hose to feed it in with, the washer looked to...

    Black 182 Gilesgate, sometime this afternoon..(2ish?)

    Coming from Sherburn and went past me as I was about to pull of the road coming from Sherburn Hospital. Was then sat at the traffic lights turning right to go towards Tesco's, but I was about three cars back so didn't get a good look.

    Bird droppings....

    Since I got my BG 182 I've become more and more aware of how easily they scratch and the paint gets marked and as a result I've polished and cleaned it more than I have done with any other car in an attempt to deal with this. This morning I got up to go to work and went out and I saw on the...

    Gearbox linkage gaitor

    Just had my tracking done today and when I was underneath the car I noticed there was oil coming from a split gaitor where the gear linkage goes into the gearbox. Does anyone know exactly what this is called, how much it costs and what is involved in repairing it?

    nOOb question

    Recently I've been trying to improve the look and paintwork on my 182. I bought some Meguiars Scratch x and used it on a few areas (results were average, but better than nothing) and also some Autoglym Super Resin Polish, which seems to be improving things after a couple of coats and has visibly...

    White 200, A1 southbound, just south of Scotch Corner

    Around 4.40pm today. Probably didn't see me as I was heading north, but I certainly saw you. Seeing more and more of thse now, love the ones in white - think this one had either a black roof or a big sunroof (?).

    Inlet manifold removal/refitting.

    I'm currently thinking about getting a set of matched inlets, however I'm not close to anywhere that does them to get them fitted. I've got a fair amount of experience with cars, done the usual exhausts, brakes etc and also done the odd clutch, gearbox, sub frame etc, but I've never done more...
