A friend had an accident and his left rearwheel is completely damaged and turned inside. Now is a rear axle of a non RS Clio the same as the one from an RS 172 Mk1?
Thanks
It will work again in a few hours or days. Had the same problem 10 times and every time the light came on again. I must see the 10th time it gave a shortcircuit with major problems!! The rubber is difficult to replace on 1 side
I'm driving and it sounds as a bearing. Vibrations in gaspedal and in brakepedal also. Sounds is faster and harder as I drive harder and less when I drive slower.
So I jacked up the 182 on my bridge, 4 wheels up. Rolled the front wheels, but I can't hear anything!
I've shaken the...
When driving in 1st/2nd, can feel knocks in the gaspedal. When breaking at lower speeds, feel the same shocks in brakepedal.
While driving hear a strange continious sound and I don't think it's engine related, but must have something to do with those feelings. This sounds I already had for...
Can this be the problem? Look at the gap of the rubber. It's the same at both sides of the car. When I drive a few meters, the gap can be on the other side
Those Belgian Mk2's are soooooooooooooo slow, but they made them in 2 version. 169 and 166 hp. Normal tax on a 172 is 2500€. They sold a light version to bring the tax down to 1250€
Your second and third opinion is true.
But:

I had the first Focus RS in Belgium. 0-60 (standard) it does NOT destroy the 182. It is a very bad sprinter (torque). It was tuned upto 280 hp. A beast on motorway, but very hard spinning from 0-60. This car was not a good sprinter, so sold it. No regrets about it at all
Went to a carpart seller today to order wishbones. Is it correct they are the same for the 182 as for other Clio models? Was only 1 model in the book for most Clio's
