    Need help/tips quickly.....

    I'm selling my car (182) and replacing my exhaust back to standard. I've only been attempting for about 2 ish hours with no joy :mad: Rear beam is down and car jacked up high as possible, but the standard exhaust is having none of it, keeps getting stuck on the bend where it drops down a little...

    182 few new mods...

    I was going to get rid but decided to keep it so hopefully I can start attending track days etc... and a group of mates are heading to Nurburgring so I'm hoping to go along. Been toying with the idea of a Carbon bonnet but never seen one a B/G 182 so can't really picture it to justify the money!

    Clio 200 MPG?!?!?!

    Who cares lol I average about 25 mpg in my 182 but I'd rather drive it too put a smile on my face than pottering around worrying about filling up again, really don't understand why you'd buy a 2.0L hot hatch and then complain about petrol consumption?! I'd of bought a DCI if I wanted decent...

    ITV HD

    To be fair King Kong was awsome quality, alot better than I was expecting. I'm sure they have upped the bandwidth and prob will for the first couple of weeks on the EPG, but then slowly but surely they will start lowering it just like BBC HD did.

    MOT Failure

    You must of took it to a really harsh MOT tester lol Surely you can sort 1-8 (not sure how easy 1*2 handbrake cables are to sort but on most small cars they are quite an easy job) out quite easily yourself and 9-11 will be sorted by fitting you cat for the MOT.

    Pop out window conversion.

    Surely would be too much hassle, why would you want the back windows to be able to open anyway??

    How much is your excess?

    Bottom right warning light?

    There any chance this light can come on due to a badly blowing exhaust from the manifold/cat joint? Also just changed my airbox back to standard but surely that couldn't bring a fault light on could it ? Seems some confusion over what the light actually means.....anyone shed some light please...

    Lowering 182

    Cheers all, followed fubar's PDF guide and it took me about hour and half to change all springs. Only problem was one of the hub bolts, was a hard b*****d and resorted to getting a blow torch out! Possibly one of the easiest jobs I've done to be though fair on my clio. Found my splitter more a...

    307 Splitter Fitting...Any Tips/Advice??

    I took my bumper off fit it as well, was much easier. Just start from the middle with 1 half and work round, bends quite easily.
