    Changing Top Engine Mount?

    Hmm... I know what your saying if done wrong then it could cause the holes to not line up properly.. Maybe if you left it bolted in place to the engine as it is, nice and tight, then squeeze the black casing together with the mount still in there or after you have fitted the new mount I reckon...

    Changing Top Engine Mount?

    I was told by bb tuning as I see it on a couple of there cars they said you would need to remove it and squeeze it together either by a clamp or vice maybe?? Also Omar (ohms??) did it when he had a 182 I think... Seeing as you are changing this mount you might aswell do this mod also....

    Changing Top Engine Mount?

    Whilst you are changing this engine mount is it worth squeezing the black casing together that the mount sits in, so the rubber bits of the new mount touches both edges of the black casing resticting it movement? Ive seen this done on a few 172/182s does it make a noticable difference when...

    182 how worn are the breaks?

    Im just on 28k and still have the original discs and pads.. Pretty sure the pads will need doing soon though on my 24k service sheet renault have said both front and rear to be 70% worn, I find this a little odd as I wouldnt imagine the rears to wear as quick as the front. Ive just recently had...

    Ok to let shampoo dry on your car?

    Thanks for the quick replys.. So if I wash one side say then rinse that side, wash the other side(s) and rinse.. So it would be ok for the water to partly dry because I would be re-rinsing the whole car after I have finished the shampoo process anyway before I pat dry and megs last detailing touch??

    Bilstein B12 suspension kit

    I remember when they first advertised this on there website the advert said they was available for all the RS models 172/182/trophy...etc. Now all it says is clio2 which to me is probably 1.2/1.6 etc... Probably best to see if they actually fit the car mate have you emailed them at all?

    36k Service = £225?

    36k Service = £225?

    I imagine that alot of people who dont use this site would rather have a full renault service history, and people who look to buy these, again who dont use this site would probably prefer to have full renault service history instead of full service history.. After the 24k service I got from my...

    36k Service = £225?

    Could you not get the service done at a renualt dealer if you really want to keep the stamps for your history and have the auxilery belt done somewhere else? Probably is alot of extra hassle but you could have the renualt stamp then.. What I dont understand is why renualt say it doesnt need...

    Had my car scraped today, worried about the repair!!?

    It happened at 11am today. Going into the gym where there is a thin bit of road which I was already into then some old man came round the corner and decided to try and squeeze through the small gap instead of reversing back into the bigger space where he just came from, which he should have done...

    Adjustable exhaust mounts (where from)

    If you have a magnex on your 182 then you should have the new mounts even if your system is older than the redesign, did you buy the system new? If so you should have the warranty contact them and tell them, they should send you some out just make sure you get enough spacers!!

    stop light and ( ! ) lights

    I thought there was no warning sensor for the brake pads? I also get this symbol and the stop sign flickering if I take a sharp corner.. I am just thinking that if the pads are low then the fluid will also be low correct? Rob.

    Adjustable exhaust mounts (where from)

    Think its a magnex thing mate got some on my car aint all that though they seem to make the car vibrate a bit more on idle plus they never supplied me with enough spacers to lower it enough away from the bumper so was also rumbling on the rear bumper, that problem has now been sorted. Rob.
