Wear in the outer joint usually shows up as vibration at certain speeds, a bit like the vibration caused by an unbalanced wheel. To determine if the joint is worn, a driver should find a big empty parking lot and drive the car slowly in tight circles, left and right. Worn joints will make a...

Hi Guys,
Currently have 2 new Michelin PE2s on the front of my 182 and wanted the same on the back but cannot find anywhere that has any left in stock and lead times are a bit silly at the moment. In fact one bloke even said they were stopping manufacturing them??
Is it ok to mix and match...
Im with greenlight who are very mod friendly
Lowering Springs + cat back exhaust + RS Tuner remap declared, even ITG panel filter, no increase whatsoever in premium. They may charge you 25 quid admin fee, but if you declare when you join or renew or whatever you dont pay anything :)
They...
Not sure if im posting this is in the right section...
Does anyone know the relationship between the inlet air temp and your cars BHP?
On a Clio 182 for instance, what would a reduction of 1Deg C in the inlet air temp equate to in HP gain?
Thanks
I get exactly the same thing. Sounds really bad in the cold mornings then fades away once the car heats up.
Bit odd that the temp can affect it so much
Hey guys,
Will these fit my 05 cup packed 182?
Eibach Pro Kit Springs
Product code: 10-75-001-02-22

Renault Clio 172 B (BB) From :09/98>09/05, Will Fit: Clio 172
Thanks
Not sure how much the springs are on their own but fully fitted came to £150 which was a big improvement on the £260 renault wanted!
This was only for the front 2 springs though as the rears were ok :(
If i was feeling rich and wanted to go aftermarket Im guessing £140ish would get me some...
Yeah i know mate, perfect time to do it, but I got the garage down to a fairly good price and with tax, insurance and xmas all looming I gotta suck it up and stick with new standard ones for now
Who knows, with the new ones not having 48k miles on them I may notice a nice difference on the...
Hey guys,
Garage is ordering some new front coil springs for my 182 with cup pack and Im worried they may order the wrong ones so:
1) Does the standard 182 and the 182 with suspension cup pack actually use different springs?
2) If so how can I tell the difference? Im hoping they will be...
Yeah just standard springs, the cable tie sounds like a bit of a bodge fix? Would that pass an MOT?
Where would I get the steel band from and what would I ask for?
Sry to sound like a plank
Hi Guys,
Car failed MOT today on 2 points listed below:
1) Offside outer front constant velocity joint gator insecurely mounted to its housing
2) Nearside front coil spring not correctly located
The guy seemed to think the first one could be fixed by a small clip or something and 2 mins on a...
Parked next to you lunchtime but think I was in and out before you came out.
Yours looked pretty sweet, what you had done to it and how much lowered was it?
