I'm looking at getting my belts and easy phaser changed pronto and was wondering if anyone knew anyone reputable up in God's County (Yorkshire) ;)
Thanks a lot :)
The management light came on yesterday so I've just scanned it and it's given me this fault code!
Are there are any common problems associated with this or could it literally just be spark plugs, leads, coil pack etc?
Car seems to be running fine now though was just for that split...
Just got car back from being tracked and I noticed it's a tiny bit out pointing to the left.
Is there any chance I could undo the steering wheel, and move it one spline to the right to make it central again? Or would it mess with the steering angle sensor et. al?
Thanks, Daniel
Hope you enjoyed my cheeky flash and nod haha. What a beautiful day it was for tempy n!
I'm not sure what your reg was but it started with V? private small plate at the front :)
Might get dash came footage up for a cheeky pic haha
Recently changed my bearing in my car up front and the new nut is weird it has like a car around it with cut outs if that makes sense. Not a standard nyloc nut.
Do I need a special tool to lock it in place or is it automatic in the way it prevents it from undoing?
Can get a pic if...
Made a thread a few weeks ago wondering what colour I should refurb my wheels in, I decided with amphasite in the end and here is the finished product!
Ended up not spending too much either as my Dad took them to a local place near his that does sand blasting so got them cleaned up for free...
Changing my bearing and I'm not sure if I've knocked my driveshaft out or if this is normal?
It won't spin freely when it's in first gear so that's telling me it's okay and no oil has spilt just wondering as it's scaring me. Thanks!

I'm a little confused, my 04 182 doesn't have either of the cup packs however it has factory xenons, climate control etc.
I thought these came with one of the full fat packs or am I getting confused? Need it clearing up for me please!!
Thanks :)
Hey.
I've taken my wheels off for spraying and noticed that on the nearside front, If I hold the disc at the sides or on the top and bottom I can wobble it quite a lot.
When I got the car it went for the MOT and was going to fail on the front left wheel bearing but I tightened the hub nut and...
Hey guys.
My wheels are kerbed to s**t thanks to the previous owner/s so i'm refurbing them this week hopefully.
I'm totally undecided on what colour to do them, what do people think? I know ultimately it's my choice but throw your thoughts into the mix :)
Cheers.
Standard:
Anthracite...
Hey
My 182 has a bit of an odd combo of tyres.
The rears are matching and are equal in tread depth.
However the fronts are two completely different makes and patterns with different tread depths (marginally).
I know the most ideal thing to do would be to get them matching but funds say no...
Hey.
I'm looking at painting my standard calipers on my 182, the wheels are also standard silver and was wondering what would look best.
I'm thinking of just a standard silver or black to keep it nice and tidy but was wondering what colours other people have gone for.
Please post a pic side...
I noticed today that the front grills either side of the Renault badge are more of a grey colour whereas the lower grill is black.
Do most people spray theirs to match the lower grill? If so does anyone have any pics of one on an arctic blue 182 so I can see if it will be worth the time...
Hey.
Hoping to change my lambda sensor as I think that's what's giving me an overfuel problem.
I've seen on eBay you can get genuine bosch lambda sensors for around £16 delivered just with out the wiring clip.
Has anyone had any decent experiences doing it this way? Don't really want...
I noticed yesterday when driving my 182 doesn't stay in a straight line, it's as if the steering wheel is constantly switching left and right and it's accentuated when going faster.
Also in the car park for asda I turned half full lock and noticed it clunked a few times when driving like...
I'm completely new to petrols and clio 1*2's and would be massively grateful if any experienced member would be able to have a quick go in my car / check over to see if it's all running correctly.
It feels okay but fairly sluggish down the rev range (mad diesel head so not sure if this is...
Hey.
I was hoping to get to Costco to get some of the massive bulk buy microfibres but it looks like I can't go.
So I was wondering where else sell decentish microfibres at the cheapest price per quantity!
Asda? Tesco?
Thank you!
Hello.
I'm so not in the know when it comes to petrols and their sensors :(
I had the MOT today and the CO levels were really really high according to the tester.
I had a quick google and loads of stuff kept coming up about lambda sensors being dodgy before the CAT however that's related to...
Picked this up yesterday down in High Wycombe and drove down from Leeds.
Absolutely loved the drive back, my last car was a diesel PD130 Seat Ibiza sport which I'd modded a fair bit engine wise and got it running around 200bhp which was fun but I just wanted a car that handles amazing and I...
Hey. I've currently got a pot of Collinite #915 that i've been using for 5 years now, finally coming to the end of it!
I was wondering what wax works well with my blue? I know some waxes/sealants work well with certain colours so any advice would be awesome, thanks :)
Will be using prima amigo...
Hey.
Got my Clio 182 yesterday and noticed when driving that when in 3rd gear it kind of looks like it's in 5th as it's at an angle and not in the normal middle and up position.
Is this normal? Or a common fault with something thats come out of alignment or something?
Thanks a lot, Dan
Hey there. I'm Dan, 22 and just finished my degree in automotive engineering.
Just bobbing in to say hello :) Currently got a diesel ibiza that i've done quite a lot of work to however i'm looking at selling it to a friend of mine and picking up a clio 182 as i'm craving a petrol again...
