Hi everyone, My car is getting the hunter four wheel alignment done tomorrow morning. As it is running with Eibach Proline springs can anyone advise what the front tracking should be set to? Thanks!

Sorry, I forgot to mention it also has Eibach Prolines fitted.

Hi! I would really like to give a track day a go next year in my 182 (both cup packs and running 172 cup turinis). The car is clocking circa 80k now, got it a year ago with 60k on it. It's had top mounts, ARB bushes, rear dampers around 15k ago and I'll be fitting new front wishbones in the...

Sorry I mean what aftermarket seats there are if I choose to replace the seats in full rather than replacing the driver seat base.

Hi I'd be looking for other seat options if there are any worth having. Otherwise I will just sort the wearing seat base out on my existing driver seat and carry on using the stock seats.

Good evening I will be looking to replace the seat base on my standard 182 driver seat, but as as I wouldn't mind something a bit more like the trendline seats, are there some seat alternatives which can fold? Or should I stick with the stock seats? Thanks

Hi Take a look under the back seats after it has rained. The rear side windows can leak. Thanks,

Hi, May be worth resetting the auto adjuster on the clutch pedal. I recently had clutch drag issues caused by it having got stuck and not adjusting for clutch wear. To do it, airbox needs to come out of the engine bay. Unhook the clutch cable off the arm on the gearbox, then depress (the now...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone knows of the Clio 182 that had private registration P55 DUD (I think) on it up until a few years back? Thanks,

Hi, Thanks. For the benefit of anyone else reading, I took the air box out to access the clutch fork on the gearbox side. Just slip the clutch cable off the fork, press the (now floppy) clutch pedal a few times and then reattach. It seemed to work, which suggests to me that my auto adjust...

Hi, Ever since I purchased my 182, the clutch seemed to drag sometimes and as of late it has got a lot worse. The bite point is near the bottom of the pedal travel. Say going into reverse it now often crunches rather than going in smoothly, a symptom I believe of a dragging clutch. I have...

Hi Thanks. Can I ask why or how they won't have a negative impact? Thanks

Hi I'm going to be replacing the front wishbones on my 182 FF. Does anyone know the part numbers for the wishbone bolts incl support arm fixings and where I can get them? Thanks!

Hi Having checked, yes there is a small gap as you said there should be. So what was the reason for design change? As mentioned I don't seem to have any problems with the original design?

Running 172 Cup wheels on 182 Cup-equipped car won't cause a problem due to the difference in offset will it?

Hi Steve, I don't think the tops parts on mine move if you go lock to lock? I will check and report back however. Thanks,

Hi everyone, Just so anyone who reads this in the future is aware, I fitted the revised top mount kit and all went well until I came to have the car sit on the wheels. Both mounts stood proud, and on driving the nearside mount would knock. On further investigation, the revised kit results in...

Thanks for the photo!

Philpooma, I take it they're okay and don't creak and knock? Thanks

Thanks for the replies. What's the difference between the genuine Renault ones with spacer nut and the Febi top mounts?

I had this when there was a large difference in tyre pressures on the same (drive) axle.

Hi, I have now been reading historic posts suggesting the Renault replacement kit was poorly designed?? Have I understood this right? Can anyone assist in what part I need to be ordering? Thanks.

Good evening! I'm going to replace the front top mounts on my 182 with both cup packs. But on looking, there are two types listed. One is with a spacer nut, the other is without. Which type should I be ordering as a pair? Thanks!

Good evening, So are we saying it's a pressure issue and is most likely the fuel pump? I can't say I have noticed mine priming for any longer than it did when I first got the car.

Strangely now in the really warm weather, it starts without fault. If anything, the hotter the car is the better it starts without having ran all day???! How does the cold start / automatic choke work on these? Wondering if it's intermittently not working?

Hi, A little more development on the non-start on first attempt. If I just turn ignition on and off and back on again it starts on first crank no problems. What would this suggest? Immobiliser issues??

How painful it is depends if it develops to not starting at all I would say! I'll try cleaning the tdc sensor first and see what happens. Any more thoughts welcome and thanks all for the replies!

Thanks for the help guys. If it makes any difference I've found ignition on, off and back on seems to mean first time crank it will start?

Hi all, My Clio 182 has just developed a fault in the past few weeks of not always starting first thing in the morning after having been parked up over night. It will splutter briefly into life and then stall, but is guaranteed to start up fine on the second attempt. Having done some reading...

Thanks, That does surprise me though having read the other discussions about air filters and the factory air box.
