Giving my 182 a service and doing the following : Engine Oil Oil Filter Air Filter Spark Plugs Also doing the Gearbox Oil, as I can't see it having been done already What do I need in terms of washers/gaskets to replace the old ones? As I understand it I'll need a new sump washer (which I've...

Looking at getting my Turinis refurbished and trying to decide between powdercoating and painting - every chance they will be a dark anthracite Both have advantages/disadvantages Powdercoating seems the most popular option, being more durable Probably leaning that way if I can make sure...

Saw a Arctic Blue 182, coming out of Hereford today (white cross way) Had a 3/4 plate on the front Think it started GD05, but could be wrong

How much are people paying for Hunter Aligment? Got quoted £50 by Kwik Fit and my local Tyre Specialist Place (Who I'd probably go with) What the chap did mention was that if the Clio 182 doesn't have a fixed rear beam (He didn't know off the top of his head, and neither did I - he did offer to...

Hi All, Looking to replace one of my side skirts on my 182, and just wondering how you go about it? Did try a search and only thread I could find said that there is pop rivets underneath, and just drill them out Just wanted to double check this is the best way, then I guess pop rivet the new...

Went to look at a Clio Mk3 (59 Plate) 1.5dci GT 106bhp for the sister tonight and was very impressed but there was one slight thing I'm unsure on Turned the ignition on (but not started the car) and all lights went out besides the 'Toxic Fume Warning Light', which would stay on continuously...

Any other suggestions where I could try for a Non-Sport Silver Mk2 front bumper? (55 Plate 1.2 Dynamique) After the version with bottom grill and fogs Tried eBay but wondering if there is anywhere else worth trying? Cheers

Right, currently undecided at the moment - Thinking of painting my brake calipers, which seems to have very mixed opinions : 1) Might as well as it looks better than the standard finish Or 2) "Why show of the fact you have standard brakes?!" So I'm in two minds whether to do mine... The...

I will put these on my progress thread, but more likely to get more opinions/replies in this section Fitted a bunch of Carbon Fibre goodies - Grill, Front Badge, Rear Boot Badge/Catch, Rear Bumper Trim and Door Bullets DSC_3682 1 by Jimbob_2705, on Flickr DSC_3667 1 by Jimbob_2705, on Flickr...

Screenshot from RS Tuner below : Fairly sure it hasn't looking at the dates...? Another thing, Looking at the Software version '8100', Calibration Version '7803', someone mentioned about updating the ecu before putitng the map on....couldn't find much on the subject, can anyone shed any light...

How badly does the top RS Grill (on a 1*2) get stone chipped? I've got a carbon fibre dipped on, but unsure whether just to put it on for special occasions (such as shows/meets) or leave it no permanently... Just wondering if anyones had any experiences with dipped or even sprayed grills, and...

Well this is embarrassing.... Fitted my Heko Window Deflectors tonight, and I'm having problems! Fitted them like normal, sticky tape, 2 clips each side, left window for over an hour closed to let them settle and sit properly Problem is back of the window keeps catching the rear of the wind...

Which way around are the rear cooksport springs meant to go? Front are obvious, due to different size at each end, but the rears are exactly the same size. Is it so the text is the right way up, or so it's upside down? I would of taken a couple of photos of the spring, but bloody didn't...

Thought it's about time to start a progress thread for my 182, since I've had it a couple of weeks now : DSC_3446 1 by Jimbob_2705, on Flickr DSC_3445 by Jimbob_2705, on Flickr DSC_3460 1 by Jimbob_2705, on Flickr DSC_3472 1 by Jimbob_2705, on Flickr Pictured next to my Corsa, which it...

Before you start all shouting at me to use the search bar, I should point out that I have! People tend to recommend the Goodyear's as a cheaper alternative than than PS3's, but these were older threads when the price difference was quite large, but now the price is within £5 on each tyre so...

Tried searching this before as thought it would of been done, but only thread I could find virtually all the images weren't working So basically all I'm after is a photo of people's exhausts and just what size tip it is Also, anyone know the standard 182 exhaust tip size out of interest...

Looking for something to keep all my Cleaning Products in, don't take it that seriously so don't have massive amounts of kit (nothing like a machine polisher or anything) Just after something to hold all my Bottles, mitts and drying towels and clay bars. Would mainly be used for storage and...

I'm after some lights which have the black insert/surround, to fit onto my 182 which has the grey insert Xenons lights at the moment, What's the best way to go about this? Doing a search it seems that some 172's had black inserts? Just wondering if its best to try to pick up a black set which...

Thinking of getting a RS Tuner and putting the 98RON map on, as everyone seems to rate it, I mean what else can you get for £70 (cost of the map and unlock, if you buy sh unit and sell it for the same) Main reason is for the smoother idle, and just generally smoother power delivery I have read...

Don't worry all, I have used the search function! Now I've been thinking of getting a short shifter for my 182, but after searching on here most people recommend it, as it's not good for the gearbox, which makes sense and is fair enough What I'm wondering though is how many if you have...

Sorry all to keep on about exhaust questions, hopefully this will be the last one! Basically my exhaust is low at the back, but not because of sagging mounts, basically it doesn't actually use the rear mounts at all! Could I get an exhaust hanger welded onto the backbox to use that mount...

Company called 'Monster Tuning Ltd' in Telford have apparently mapped the Clio I bought, Reason I say apparently is that I don't have the dyno results in paper So I did a bit of searching on their FB and actually found that they did Remap it, well there's a photo of the car on their Dyno at...

So I'm deciding to put a cat back on my 182, so deciding what cat I should be looking at Do I just get an OEM secondhand one? Or get a new one off eBay like this : http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=130626847278&globalID=EBAY-GB Or any other suggestions I should look at...

Finally bought a Clio (they'll be a thread to follow at some point) but it's got a custom exhaust system on it....and bloody hell isn't it loud!! I've got to admit it sounds amazing, but I know it's just going to attract unwanted attention! So looked underneath and this is what we have ...

Seen a car I'm after but seems there is a V5C issue. Chap selling hasn't got it in his name as he got it from a mate in the trade and apparently he never got the section 10 green slip - he just got given the main V5C (the bit the seller should send off) without the section 9&10. He rang DVLA...
