24 ? I can't recommend going on a stupid black box for first 2 years of your driving life enough.

1k insurance!!! What it's £420 a year for me :P same price as my clio.... Actually think its £30 cheaper

I'm no stranger to problems I've had plenty of fun sorting issues out on my drive. Or having the gearbox poking out the wheel arch to change bits. Im definitely tempted to buy one from a member or a dealer who are renault specialists. With some damn warenty too lol. Just want another 4 years...

£10,000 Awesome! I'm hearing great things I mean it's an old car now. I'm expecting to pay for some bits but I'm hoping to get a new car to not be constantly paying out if you get my point.

Mmm I love my clio but I would love to go for a meg Thanks :) I'll remember that. I mean I currently spend maybe £50 a month on fuel maybe? As long as I'm not reaching in to my pocket every other month for parts I won't mind to much. Besides I never skimped on the 182. Brembros and so on. I...

Haha. Ktec have a few. Im going to see if I can have a look. It's a 2 hour drive. But if there as good as people say. I'll go for it ? Intresting. I would like something more grownup.... As long as I can still have a little fun. Well I'm not sure if I'd keep it 100% stock for too long I'm...

Hi, I think it might be time to leave my little 182. Which sucks but I've been looking around at different cars and for some reason I want to stay with renault. ? I've been thinking about a 197 or a 200. But someone suggested I look at a Megane. Must admit I kind of like the 250 cups. Sort of...

No problem. I've got a mechanic friend who said he might help. But it might be time to look at getting a new car :(

I see xD. I've got 4 new plugs on the way. Change all 4 while I'm at it. I'm in maidstone and I don't really want to drive the car to far or at all if I can avoid it.

I'm not trade tho.

Do you know where i can get an insert? Would helicoil and some localite do the job ?

Ye I'm hoping the same to dude. Or might be looking at a new car

Ooo might invest Err I'm not sure looked like bits of the ht lead tbh. The top of the spark plug was inbeded in the lead. Black as my hands after 20 mins under that engine.

Odd length ht leads shouldn't be a problem either right?

Maybe. It just sounds like there's a rattle/crunch almost syncing up with a piston turn. It's hard to explain without hearing it There was a load of little bits of stuff in the inlet manifold. But the little exhaust exit bit at the top How hard is it to sort the stripped thread? Lots of grease...

And yes exact same one

Ye I'd agree it wasn't a proper ngk spark tho dad a spare I had. Threads are balls. But I wound a new spark in and it held nicely. But it sounds like there's stuff in cylinder 2. Doesn't sound healthy. I don't know if it's becuase the new spark isn't great/the ht lead I used isn't the exact...

@aydon Lol I think something hit this one good today Just can't work out why it was working fine all day and then decided to go on way home??

I took plug out replaced it and it was running fine on way home its gone again :/ might be very bad news Had it done last year had no problems with it she ran great. Yea you might be right. It's happened again today. Might be time to look at a new car :/.

Bent ass sparkplug!

So ermmm.... This is one of the htleads

Cambelt/defaser /waterpump done by two techs not to long ago

On way home today was driving down the road changed down and rather than revving I heard what sounded one blowing I assumed it was my exhaust or something. But then I noticed check engine light and that the car was Reving it self, then I heard the noise it was making. Sounds a little bit like...

Thought I'd share my clean little 182 bg :) 105k miles now

Hi! So I've narrowed it down to these two. But I'm always open to suggestions that may be better /cheaper. But I need mounts, and I'd like to be as low as I can get. I don't want sliders really people don't get in back of my car that often. And if they do they'll have to live with crushed legs...

Eeey clean exhausts are always best :D

ye i think ill get some grease lol. not gonna get a new body just for a gasket. Ye it must be i woke up got in car and it idled at like 1.1k ... which is around about where it idles when its hot. Still reved its self alittle but nothing above 1.3k where as yesterday it was 1.8k almost 2k Ye i...

Where do I get a gasket for throttle body? I can get the inlet gaskets on kam racing. https://www.kamracing.co.uk/renault-clio-mk2-renault-oe-inlet-manifold-gasket-rs.html https://www.kamracing.co.uk/renault-clio-mk2-renault-oe-manifold-seal-rs-172-182.html

The o ring? So the o ring attaches to the throttle body? How can I tell if there is an air leak? Will it be blowing air out? Or sucking? Should be able to feel it I would think.

Change the O ring as well. A new one is soft & compressable, my old one was hard as nails. Is the car a PH1 ? The car is a ph2. Im not sure where this goes? Is it the inlet manifold? I'll get one ordered
