Another quick update, the black plastic around my mirrors, scuttle panner, exhasut surrounds etc was doing my head in as it looked more grey than black! Sorted them out last week, looks loads better! Before After

Ok, seem to have sussed it. Had a new radiator fitted a little while back and it seems they didn't line the 2 mounts back up with the grooves at the top, so they are rubbing, causing the squeak. From the looks of it, they are bolted on behind the top plastic bit of the grill and need adjusting...

Having driven home tonight, it's not really on braking, a lot more on when I first press the accelerator or release my foot from it.

Hi guys, Bit of advice, should be taking the car to Birchdown soon anyway, but wanted some opinions. It seems like especially when the car is cold, when I accelerate moderately in the car there is a small squeak as if something moves. (Not continuous) This also seems to happen when braking...

Nope...has gone up since then, it's more like £235 iirc.

Any ideas on a rough price for this service? Cheers

Ok cheers, looks like I'll book her in at Birchdown then...gives me an excuse to go Xmas shopping in Nemo too ;)

Anyone else got any advice on whether it's worth a service after 1 year even though the official interval is 2 years?

Cheers, is that what most people stick to? Not sure where I got a year from...

Just been reading the guide in the member's section on service intervals. That says every 12k or 2 years, but I'm sure I've read elsewhere that it's 1 year, or is that just what people recommend on here? Any thoughts? as I'll prob only be hitting about 6K in a year since my 36k service...

Re: Possible new splitter found!! Fitted mine on Friday, not bad for £11 I reckon!

Quick update... Silvertecs now fitted as well as Fabia RS splitter, not bad for £11! :)

What's it like on the motorway? Want it punchy, not a drone like some of them!

Is this the RS192, i.e twin silencers? Would be keen to hear the single if anyone has a video!?

Cheers mate, looks good. If there's any chance of a video, that would be sweet. How would you describe the sound? Where did you buy yours from? Cheers

Got anymore pics or videos oafcmarky?

Re: Possible new splitter found!! Anyone know how long it normally takes a dealer to get a part in? Or do they stock them? Cheers

Did you have to order the part in mate? How long did it take them? I fancy one but don't wanna wait, lol! :)

Hi guys, Anybody know the part number for locking wheelnuts to fit the 182? Cheers Adam

Where's the best place to buy the milltek from mate? Got any pics/vids of the exhaust? Cheers.

Bumpy, anyone know anything about the other scorpion system?

Hmmm, can't see many mentions of these cheekymartin. I did see Kam Racing mention that they are pretty much the same as the RS192 apart from the looks?

Swap ya! My standard exhaust is falling to pieces. I can't imagine there are too many good condition standard, 2nd hand 182 exhausts knocking around now. Just keep the aftermarket! ;)

Aren't yozzas becoming very hard to source with yoz away!? Or can fred still get them? (oh and anyone know about the scorpion exhaust I posted before?)

I used these guys, really good service! http://www.paints4u.com/

Anyone got one of the cheaper Scorpion exhausts fitted (seen it called imola or le mans style), shown here: http://www.larkspeed.com/index.pl?p=125RN19IM&a=i Is there much difference to the rs192?

Cheers mate, ahh that's a shame...he does spend 90% of his time polishing his car! I'll tell him to give you a shout next time he's moaning about being short of money! ;) Cheers gaz-kev! haha nice work on that, that was my only guess but pretty easy to do!

It's a good question, to be honest I don't know. Came with the Orange ones on. Perhaps the guy who sold it decided to swap with a mate who wanted some clear ones for their orange ones... Oh well, sorted now anyway.

A few updates... New Plate Added Clear Repeaters Added Plus silvertecs on the way :approve:

Either of you got pics of them fitted in car?
