My not showed an imbalance of 8% front and 9% rear, it passed but is this to much? I want to even them up a bit so was thinking new pads and a clean and grease off the carriers and sliders.

I could go out and have a look but it's pi**ing it down, my guess would be they aren't compatible

Overtook me like a wally on very wet roads, not too friendly not even a wave. Boo hoo.

Discontinued by Renault apparently and spray shack gone so where can I get a reliable touch up kit ? Halford much cop?

I'm due am oil change soon and I've got enough if I mix fuchs 5w 40 from opie and some unipart 5w 40. Except for the fuchs being a better oil is there any harm in doing this?

I'm thinking of getting an rs tuner, my question is why if it's so simple dibdn't Renault put this map or one like it on the car in the first place?

Solved my misfire with a new injector but the engine management light is still on, can this be cleared or is it something else?

Can I swap/remove a single injector on my 182 to isolate if one is blocked?

Tried replacing what I thought was dodgy leads (kindly supplied by Adam) but it is still not firing on one cylinder. Could the coil be faulty or would that just not fire at all?

i've got only the cylinders firing, had a search so i'm thinking the best place to start would be new plugs then leads then coil pack? oh and the engine management light is flashing does this indicate anything else? Dom

Basically my 182ff feels crap turning into bends. I've fitted new so rear shocks which I thought felt better but now I think it was psychological, so what can I try next? It doesn't feel as nice as my old 172

My 182 is on 50k and has felt a bit horrible turning in to corners and in general like I fight to keep the front end going where I want it to. This is at relaxed driving speeds. The steering feels loose and i've asked on here before but i'm now fed up as it doesn't feel controllable or tight. I...

this has been a bit of a niggle for a while but as the weather should get a bit better soon I want to tackle it, basically cornering doesn't seem as responsive as it should and it doesn't turn in nicely like there is a vagueness initially. Also I get a bobbly feel at times like i'm on those...

I've been having a running battle with my exhaust for a while now with it protruding over 25-30mm from having been near to flush. Is only after a run, is it the heat expansion? it looks a but nasty though. Our could I have an engine mount failing? Which would be at fault? Any ideas...

Need to change both of mine, done a search but can't find a guide. I know it's pretty straight forward but am I right to assume the 280nm torque is only for the hub nuts so I could get them torqued up at my local garage once i'm done

Now I think I have two knackered driveshafts where is the cheapest place to get Renault or recon shafts? Rough prices? Cheers Dom

Done a few searches and I think I may have come to the conclusion I have a worn drive shaft. Normal driving is fine but when manoeuvring in car parks and on tight junctions I get a grinding noise and sometimes a feeling as if I've driven over a golf ball and the wheels have skipped (well that's...

Just wound my dip beam up by 2 complete revs, from 10 feet on my garage doors it went up about 3"is that going equate to much over full distance if you get my meaning. Been lowered on eibach sportlines and naff all distance on dip

Just changed the gearbox oil on my 182, maybe it was slightly front end down but I only manage to get 2.7 litres back in it. Does that seem right, I realise the full 3.1 will never come out but I imagined I'd get more than that in

Ive been quoted £71.95 +vat each for full fitting and balance for Toyo proxies T1Rs, is this a fair price? Looking for a decent replacement for my tired exaltos, any others worth a look?

I want to connect my nano with new style lightening connector to my standard 182 stereo, is it possible without using the radio transmitter method? Dom

I have a set of eibach sportlines off my old 172 and with the good weather I am thinking of putting them on my 182. Problem is they are peeling/bubbling and a bit rusty, do I put them on or are they for the bin? Dom

Hi, Another dodgy aircon query. Done a pressure check, bit high if anything and checked the cogged bit isnt chewwed in the footwell. Any ideas whats up with my climate control? thanks in advance Dom

bugging me this but some days my exhaust sticks out more than others, could it be a worn engine mount?

When I am pulling off I occasionally get a grind noise which I can feel through the clutch pedal. My car has only done 40k and the clutch doesnt seem to be slipping, any ideas?

How irritating, took my 182 to ETB get it tracked as it was pulling to the right a bit on acceleration and they confirmed it was a bit out but after a while of puffing just went "oh we cant free it its seized, take it to someone to free it off and we will set your tracking" I thought that is...

Getting my steering wheel re-trimmed by Mikey on here, done a search but cant really find many different examples. Its for a 182ff in arctic and I cant decide what to get done. Any pictures of yours done would be great.

I have a set of sportlines that the paint have chipped on quite badly where they touch the dampers and where the coils touch on compression. They also have slightly worn flat patches where the springs touch on compression, are they still good enough to use or are they past it? Dom

tried searching, do I fit sportlines or are the standard cup pack springs better, since moving to my 182ff from my ph1 172 I like not having crashy suspension and more internal rattles. Will my 182 be the same with them? Dont want to ruin my rattle free drive. Dom

spotted on 12.03.12 at about 14.00, nice and the first time Ive seen one in the flesh
