Noticed this last night, when removing my foot from the accelerator pedal and then suddenly putting it back on, right the way down. I get a very nasty clunk/bank noise coming from what sounds to be the drivers side, near the wheel. Obviously might be somewhere else but that's where it sounds...
Hello,
My 182 has two leaks before and after the CAT, only had a quick look but are there two gaskets/seals either side of the CAT?
How much do these gaskets/seals cost.
Cheers
Piece os piss to change.
1. Jack the car up.
2. Remove Wheel (Passenger)
3. Remove plastic guard.
You will see the horn, i've got through 4 horns, they just don't like working on my car!!
I just had a massive look at the drivers side headlight, I turned the adjuster till the light started tilting up, then put them back down, so the tilter is still ok. It is easy to stop the insides from moving side to side or is it easier to just buy a new headlight? I'm honestly sick of it and...
Just looked at my failed MOT certificate on the internet and this is what it failed on, I seen the failure sheet from the garage but it didn't have **DANGEROUS** on it lol
Reason(s) for refusal to issue Certificate

I just left it wobbly and it passed its MOT, going to have to have a look one day, so the hight adjust "(bottom/middle thing) " is that directly below the ignitor for the xenon?
My car failed its MOT due to the drivers side xenon being out, Renault where going to charge me £110 just for the light, booked it in with the intention of cancelling it as the earliest it can go in is Friday.
Had a look, took the big black thing (sorry don't know what it is) of, turning it...
Re: Torque Lite (OBD2 & Car) See your cars fault codes and reset them, view sensor in
Didn't have any problems getting it to connect. I have a HTC Sensation, used the code 1234 to pair it and connect.
Anyone used this? I just checked it out today, didn't know anything about it but you plug a little bluetooth OBD2 plug into your cars diagnostics and download the Torque Lite (OBD2 & Car) application from the android market and you can read fault codes, clear fault codes, look at real time data...
Fitted the rear shocks today really easy and only took me twenty minutes, my ride is do much better now, everything is very stiff at the rear and does not slide out when turning on damaged roads, only my driver side shock was fooked but replaced then both.
Jacked the car up on the side I was...
Well I've bought the shocks on the ebay link above and hopefully they will arrive tomorrow or thursday!!
Is it worth getting coil spring clamps? Or are they not needed, would they make it easier?
Found these:

I pressed it down just then it was easier to press down the drivers side than the passengers! I pressed it down it bounced once! There was als creaking from the drivers side.
When I drive over bumpy roads where the winter ice has damaged them, once I go over a bump for about a second afterwards the car is still vibrating and is very light on the road. When going over the same type of road, but turning, the back end spins out pretty badly!! I'm thinking its the shocks...
Found the problem, the resistor had rotten, which powers the cooling fan which should run slowly as soon as the a/v is switched on.
Anyway I'm going to do a quick solder repair. Will let you know if it fixes it.

I have read that the cooling fan is two speed and obviously if that isn't running then its not cooling and hence the bottom pipe which is getting hot is because of the fan.
The fan does come on but only in fast. Should the fan come on in slow speed when the a/v is turned on. Can someone try...
An unusual one but I think its due to overheating. I had my car charged up at kwik fit two weeks ago, air con was ice cold after the charge but its been losing its coldness as the weeks have gone by.
I had a look just now and in the picture below the top pipe goes cold and the smaller pipe...
Yeah checked the relays and fuses. Its been sat for 6 months doing nothing whilst i've been away on deployment, parents ran it around for a bit but probably didn't use the air con, so its probably all gone!
I've had problems with my air con before when it was losing gas but when I clicked the AC button you could here the aircon "click" on and the revs would change, Now i'm getting nothing. I'm guessing the fuse may have blown but i'd like some advise on what else it may be!
I use it every weekend I can get home! From Portsmouth to Middlesbrough, its a long journey and when its wet and when the roads have salt all on them, the car gets dirty and rusts. A lot of people on here probably only go to the shops or to "cruise" around the streets in their car. I Use it to...
What do people use to clean the engine bay, Its all like that as its had 6 years of motorway driving with all the salt on the roads!! Well thats my excuse anyway, never thought about cleaning it as its all under the bonnet so you can't see it!
I've managed to wiggle it out, one of the threads holding it on had snapped and the nut from the other thread isn't there!!!
Dunno how that happened! But its out now though. The engine is a little dirty like but thats just superficial, its regularly serviced so inside is ok.
Looks like there...
