    182 Replacement Stub Axle Bolts

    I just called up Pure, spoke to Nick Benton and asked for the stub axle spacer nuts and bolts separately. It cost £10 as far I remember.

    Hello from London

    For a spanish car that 182 in your pics is in astonishing condition bodywork wise. That rear beam is almost perfect compared to the rusty ones from the UK with our rainy weather.

    Best place to buy OE Xenons

    Ebay france sell aftermarket copies of 18 xenon lights. In all honesty you will probably be best off buying a second hand pair off here (join up to see for sale section) and then spend a couple of hours polishing them. Do not have any xenon lights posted as they are really delicate and 80%...

    Also more importantly after 5 years of using my Kestrel DAS 6 it might finally be dying. I think the bearing that supports the backing pad is worn out as there is a lot movement in the backing pad and also makes noises now. Kind of glad its breaking as I want another polisher. What would you...

    As we all know clios are made of thin coke can metal. How do people tackle the roof of the car when they are machine polishing with DAS. on harder pads I find when i get to the middle of the roof the polisher will jump a little and vibrations will go through the roof. Even if you dont put any...

    That #16 must be 10 years old. Used to quite like it lol. Really could do with a point in the right direction. Im up for buying what it takes and was hoping you could tell me what to buy. I dont mind if it doesnt last ages and am looking for a beautiful finish more than anything. What would you...

    So I have spent way too many hours machine polishing a petrol blue 182. I have gone through wet sanding any deeper scratches, meguiars ultimate cutting compound and then 4 different Menzerna polishes and a range of hex logic pads until the paint had a complete mirror finish. Ive never spent this...

    Fitting clio 200 recaro's in 172

    SteveMac was selling some the other day so I spent ages researching it. Unfortunately it isnt an easy task, nothing is impossible though. The renault 197/200 recaros have a customised frame that they weld to the seats so you would first need to grind this off and then make one that will fit the...

    197/200 Recaros

    Thanks guys. Its a shame as there was some 197 recaros up for sale but it sounds like way too much work to get them to fit. I did have a look on ebay and Corsa VXR seats (recaro cs sportsters) are really nice and cheaper too. The 197/200 ones look really nice with the renaultsport embroidery but...

    197/200 Recaros

    Hey Steve, love the look of those seats. How are they fitted to your car, do they have custom made subframes or are they just standard recaro subframes.

    The Black Pearl (1.2)

    f**king hell, you have absolutely transformed that car ! It looks absolutely awesome dude. Great spraying skills, really impressive how well you colour coded your old bumper. Some many nice little touches add up to a car that is a dream to own. I actually really like those wheels and they suit...

    Found out why the knocking sound started...

    Have a look first to really make sure the cv boot has split.

    Found out why the knocking sound started...

    99% of the time its the round clip that secures the rubber cv boot that has failed. Be careful with replacing it with a jubilee clip as the screw head on it can foul on the hub. Its best to buy the correct clip and special pliers to put them on with.

    Ph1 dropped key now central locking not working

    Oh, not the same as a mk2 key then. under the unlock button there is a microswitch , check the solder on that.

    Ph1 dropped key now central locking not working

    It should be easy to fix. take the battery cover off and look on the circuit board. there is a little push switch that has 4 legs that solder to the board. I bet one of these legs has come loose. get a soldering iron on it and solder it back. should be really easy. It has happened to me before.

    Back in a clio renaultsport

    Looks in great shape, love the colour in the sun. It looks like a standard 182 though, silver wheels and standard spoiler.
