Im not convinced though mate. If it was just the fast flash then i would have already done it, but now it has a solid loght too it makes me less confident that it is the key. I have also noticed, that when it is playing up with the solid light, the alarm red light on the centre console next to...

The new decoder ring hasnt solved the starting problem. Gutted about it as i have no idea what it is at all! Had it plugged into a snap-on scanner tonight and it didnt show anything! Hopefully CLIP will show what it is. Scared to hse the car bow because im getting stuck every time and it takes...

Decided to tackle the dodgy ignition barrell today. Found a scrap yard with a dci in so went and picked up the barrel and locks etc for £20. I was hoping it would have the egr valve on that i could take too as mine is still showing a code with the eml light even after cleaning it. It was on the...

Eml came back on! Plugged in and both the same faults again, so i decided to test them all. Both new ones and one old one giving off 12v, and the other old giving 9v. Strange as this one was reading 12v 2 days ago. Anyway, decided to change them and when testing them off the car the 9v was...

I have turned it off and it hasnt cme back on yet although iv only took it for a short drive. It mdid normally come straight back on though so hopefully it stays off. There were 2 codes though so i wont be surprised if it does come back on but only shows the other fault. I was scared mate but...

My extra deep socket areived today after the halfords one I bought was too wide. For anyone interested, its a Laser 5709 3/8 drive and comes in a double pack, one 10mm and one 12mm. I could only get them online and it was £12.50 posted from Amazon, but they are on ebay too. Works perfect...

Should be about Wed night or next weekend mate and in all day today if you can get over later? Cheers mate. Wed might work good as im back down that way then. Il drop you a message.

Tempted to get the key guy back and just take a risk getting a new key made up. If it fails i will be £80 down but at least i will be able to rule that out. Such a pain of a fault because theres no answer other than trial and error. @Brigsy are you free next week at all to plug in for me mate?

I tested the glow plugs this morning wirh my multimeter and plug 1 & 4 are gone! No reading at all. Strange because it actually starts straight up (when the whole key / imobilisher or whatever it is, isnt playing up). I have ordered an extra deep 10mm socket so I can get them changed over. The...

Looks clean, Liam. Loads if Dci’s on here lately. Only question i can answer is the bumpers, they fot straight on, but would need the feont wings too. Its the side skirts that would need modification. And it wont be BG, thats a 182 colour only.

I have no idea mate. Im clueless with electrics in a car, they seem to be impossible to diagnose. So anoying because the engine is great, when it starts, it drives brilliant! I have already done about 800 miles in in with no issues, so its so frustrating is that the only issue is getting the...

At a loss now as to what this can be and it is really frustrating me! When i bought the car, first attempt to start you get the fast flash red light on the speedo console. 2nd or 3rd attempt and ot would start fine. However, the barrel is also broke and needs replacing as the return spring etc...

Hi mate, hows it going? I will pop over tomorrow and get a price, if its loads cheaper than Renault il just do that. No idea why it was wet. Its driving fine. Is turbo seal failure a big thing?

Ya whatwa?

Really mate? Cant be lol! Its a mess!! What about the yellow plug? Whats meant to go in that?

Have i stumbled across the potential starting problem here?????? After 4 days of no issues, i got the flashing red light again. I decided to look at the relays in the passenger footwell near the glovebox and have found a load of wires which do not look standard!? Maybe aftermarket alarm at some...

Can i use your trade card lol?

Torque wrench advice needed. I have never owned one but always wanted to add one to my current tool collection. Im about to do the brakes on my car which i believe the torqe levels range from 17nm to 175nm. I have had a look at the halfords range because my 200 socket set has been amazing! But...

Do you think mate? Was going to ask if it was worth changing? Does it add much more work or is it easy to change?

Had a price from Renault for the following genuine items at £127 total delivered! Cambelt kit Drive belt Waterpump 5 ltr type d coolant

Thats a bit confusing lol! Brings up more than one option so not clear which is correct

Many thanks mate! Good to know what to look out for there and good to know before everything is taken apart! Yea the lad helping me has the oins so we will use them to keep things right. And i will pick some type d up from the local renault garage ?? Going to ring around tomorrow to see what...

Well very luckily a mate has messaged me after seeing this thread and has offered to help out with it! Im going to get the kit ordered and we will get cracking with it. Where did you buy your belt kit from out of interest? And what do you mean by an M12 ? What comes with the kit?? And whats...

I put a genuine delphi filter on mine and it doesnt have anywhere for a sensor to be plugged in. I also put a genuine “renault” delphi filter on my old dci which also didnt have anywhere for a sensor to be plugged in. Delphi fuel filter on ebay for £17 posted ??

Durham lol, miles away!

Gus, i have just ordered the pads for my da. Going to practice on the dci before i have a ho at the 182!

Was just about to say the same as Kyle has posted below. Theres a very detailed 20 min video on how to do it. I watched it all but theres a couple of parts throughout which i get confused at which is what puts me off doing it without someone present who knows what they are doing. Where are you...

Cheers Rich. No plans at all to make any performance upgrades mate. I will keenit standard and serviced well. Desperate for the major cambelt service and im so tempted to try myself following guides but with no previous experience i think it might be too risky without supervision.

I checked them all earlier mate. Even swapped around etc, fitted spares i have and it didnt change anything. Well actually, it made it not fire up at all after i had fiddled with them and kept the steady red light on. It was only after disconnecting and reconnecting the battery that it seemed to...

The starting issue has been even stranger, after working perfectly, it developed the fast flash again, which then developed into a solid light! Managed to get it going everytime, then this morning it did the same, would crank but not fire. Relays in the engine bay fuse box all look fine. Took...
