Cheap chinese import stuff, should have bought Autoglym, that pukka

I have a Mk2 golf 2.0 16v which has thrown the diff pin 3 times with what sound like the same result. If the engine is modded it is a common problem. Mine had 169bhp atw and was resolved long term by fitting a quaife lsd.

Mine is coming up for 63k and the only problems I have had are the cat and the ESP light coming on after about 30 mins on the motorway. For some reason, Renault changed the oxygen sensor to cure this????, then when I took it back they actually had a new technician who was polite, explained what...

I know nothing about the chemistry etc involved with Petrol. However, I do know, my mover will absolutely refuse to start if not been used for a month or so, but put fresh petrol in it and it will start 1st try. Also my old ZX6R which I crashed some years ago was in my garage for about 6...

Reno Swansea is the same franchise as Cardiff and they do a minor Service for £190. I have had issues with them in the past as they did not appear to have a clue, but I took the car in last week as the ESP and Service lights were coming on after about 20 motorway miles and the heat shield was...

£245 for 36k at Gravells in Kidwelly, takes me nearly an hour to get there and I pass two other dealers inc where i bought it, but at least they know what oil they are supposed to put in it. Dealer I purchased it from has filled it with 10w40 which I made them change as they should know better...

I got a Mk2 Golf which has exactly the same chassis as a corrado. I have had it 13 years and have changed everthing on it. It had a 2litre 16v conversion with 169bhp at the wheels, and it's currently having a 20vt fitted. Best quarter mile I've done in it is 15.01s, which sounds slow but it...

Couple of weeks back PE2s were £87 on Mytyres, up from the £75 I paid for the first two sets I put on the 182. They are back down to £78.80 each as of now. Most of the tyre dealers I have rang locally have quoted me £100 plus fitted. On the advice of Fred, I have tried Yoko Parada 2 for £72...

I had two good ones relating to the tyres on my 182 Stealer "Your car needs two front tyres sir" Me "Yes I know, but I have ordered them elsewhere as you are very expensive" Stealer "How much are you paying?" Me "£75" Stealer "Ours are £75 also" Me "Great, if they are the right tyres...

I have never had a french car before, bough my 182 after having had a Freelander TD4, A4, Alfa 156 and I have a Mk2 Golf GTI which I have owned for 12 years. The 182 has been as reliable as any of the above. I have had the 182 for nearly 2 years and done 40k of mostly motorway miles with no...

Not Renault Swansea/Cardiff surely?? snigger

Just paid £250 for 36k at Gravells in South Wales and they offered me a courtesy car while they were doing it. I am amazed but it was actually a pain free relatively cheap experience.

Not sure on cars, but you can get a daytime MOT for a bike, you only need a reflector on the rear, and a horn. Surprisingly you dont even need a brake light, not that I fancy riding a bike with no brake lights personally.

Forgot to say Gravells have quoted me £265

Booked in next week at Gravells in Kidwelly, South Wales - Independant Renault Franchise I think. Got Quoted £299 at Swansea and £340 - 350ish at Renault Cardiff. They could not give me a firm quote and is apparently the same dealer as Swansea????

I would be up for this, not done any for a long while but would be a laugh

If I remember correctly, Frank Williams was paralyzed after rolling a Sierra

Cant you get a duplicate of the service history? If has been serviced in the UK then Renault should be able to replece the service book, fully stamped up. (at an extortionate cost of course:D)

Very nice mate, I had a Mk3 XR3 (Dont tell anyone) back in1989 and loved it until I put it on its roof with 2.5 years left to pay. How do you find the front end with that kind of power??, I know the XR3 had different suspension and no slip etc, but I understeered under power clipped a bank and...

Heres a link to Part 2 off their site (30mb) And theres a clio in it, being passed quickly http://www.carpi.ch/Video/reddevil_part2_30mb.wmvhttp://www.carpi.ch/Video/reddevil_part2_30mb.wmv [Edited by welsh182 on 26 July 2005 at 8:30pm]

Not taking care when removing the key has reulted in mine being scratched quite badly. I did not notice what I was doing until it was too late. Could get them painted body colour like some V6s, again wont match gear knob etc

Take note, they dont charge to get into England, £4.80 for visiting rights to Wales. Supply and Demand eh!! Anyway, from Swansea with a Racing Blue 182

There was some bad reports here the other week about getting Exalto 2s from Mytyres.com. Ordered 2 from them on the 9th @ £152 delivered and they came today after being given an approximate delivery date of the 17th. Second time Ive used them with no problems.

The red one in Auto express pics looks okay but looks a little tall and does look a bit chopped?? In the smaller pics of the yellow one, it looks awesome and I would definately buy one if it handles/goes anything like my 182 and if circumstances (read funds) allow.

I would have thought that it would make it easier to get the flies atc off, but evrything else would stick to the car and it would look filthy in no time. Autoglym have just brought out a fly remover of some sort which is supposed to be good.

Ktec splitter looks good and may be a bit more durable than the genuine one. I have broken mine by hitting a brick left in the road, but when I was removing the bits, I could not believe how brittle the plastic was. I literally snapped it to bits in my hands with very little effort. Also cant...

Mine has been in for 24k this morning, was quoted £165 but told when I got there that that was for a non sport Clio and they wanted £199. I was not happy, so they honoured the original quote.

My wife had eggs thrown at her metallic black 156 one halloween and it marked eggsactly like that, chipped right throught the paint tho and would not cut out.

Perhaps its me being a bit thick again, but on the renault site configurator, it would appear that a new Authentique 1.2 now comes with a cup spoiler as standard. Link -...
