So the fact they wouldn't be there, meaning they couldn't be tested in an MOT, would be fine? Just wasn't sure if washers were required to actually be fitted with xenons, but if not the case then I'll get some blanks. Cheers

Hi guys Just noticed of recent that one of my washers on my 182 with xenons has started leaking washer fluid. I could replace it, but wouldn't mind fitting a set of colour coded washer blanks instead to tidy up the front end, prefer the cleaner look. However, my one worry is what would happen...

Yep that was me. Black 182 with recaros and Turinis. Thanks for the kind comment! Yes, live in Fareham. Take that journey every day. I'll be going to the meet up the hill next week, might see you there if you're going.

Guess that was you I passed this morning @Paul172sport ? Nice car.

In all honesty I hadn't realised that the PMS mounts were £130. Assumed they were about £200 or so. In which case I will definitely order the PMS mounts instead, now just to decide whether to get the whole package including their strut brace or not...

Cheers for the advice. Have just sent him a message on here, so I'm sure he will be able to sort me out and answer my questions. Ash

Ok guys, cheers for your replies.

No no, not a short shift. Not a fan of short shifts as it can cause premature damage if you rush the syncros. The stiff shift which Yanoo can supply. Link: http://www.dp-automotive.hu/dpa_developments.html

Hi guys I have a 2005 Clio 182, and have just purchased a Ph1 172 shift assembly (for the gear knob). I plan on getting this fitted soon, but would like to order a Yanoo Stiff Shift first to fit at the same time. Which version do I want? Bearing in mind I'll be fitting the Ph1 172 assembly...

Hi guys Bought a Ph1 172 shift assembly on the weekend, mainly because I want the gear knob (see below) to fit my 182. I would like to get it powdercoated black/anthracite to match my interior, instead of the standard silver/grey. Is it possible to just remove the gear knob? If so, how? Just...

Nobody?

Update time. As already mentioned, had BTB exhaust fitted last weekend so it's been on a week. However, noticed a blow on the join between cat and centre box today, so that will be something I rectify this weekend. Just ordered a brand new genuine centre box clamp, so once that has arrived I can...

Only reason I am using Royal, is because I have seen a wheel in a specific spec which was done by Royal, and I want the same. I appreciate Snappy could probably make the wheel how I want it no problem, but seeing as Royal have done it before and know the exact spec and materials etc, I will have...

Have to admit, I was at K-Tec last weekend, and I asked them if they could show me a couple of their 182 wheels, purely as I wanted to see the finish etc. I have to say I was impressed! The finish is very good, it was an alcantara one I looked at as that is what I want doing to mine eventually...

Hi guys Going to be doing a suspension refresh on my car soon, with OE cup dampers. I was going to order genuine top mount kit for both sides too, and cheapest I can find online for genuine mounts is about £75 for a pair. But I have been considering solid top mounts. I know the most popular...

So I had this lot turn up during the week, ready to be fitted with my BTB cat-back exhaust system this weekend... Do not have any pics of the system on the car yet, but will get some later. It is an awesome piece of kit, very happy with it. Ordered an inlet manifold gasket from local Renault...

Thanks mate. Not the biggest fan of spacers so doubt I will put any on, but have seen a couple with spacers and it does look good aesthetically! Had mine fitted this weekend, spot on. Sounds perfect, and I don't like loud exhausts. Sounds just right and isn't overly loud. Also my cat is still...

I live in Fareham but am from Pompey mate, grew up there. But I am up that way fairly often as my dad lives just off Albert Road.

Flame 172 with silver Turinis parked up along Francis Avenue in Fratton not long before The Rutland Arms pub. Was driving past and only saw it last minute but looked quite tidy.

I would like to lower it a tad yes. Long term I'd like to source a pair of Trophy Sachs dampers and pair them with Mark Fish springs. But considering they go for around £500 in a condition where they need a refurb (when they come up that is), and then needing a refurb, I'd be looking around...

Hi guys Been on this forum for a while, but have never owned a Clio, or in fact any kind of Renault before. I have wanted a Clio 172/182 for ages, and have always kept my eye on the market. Anyway, a very tidy Clio 182 with low miles came up, in Black Gold and with both Cup packs (FF model)...

Hi guys Just wanted opinions on where I can get an exhaust system fitted in Hampshire? Picking up a cat-back system tomorrow, and will be purchasing new exhaust mounts, fitting kit, and also a new lambda sensor over the next few days. I do have my car booked in at K-Tec for this coming Saturday...

From your profile pic there yours looks to be on Turinis? This was very standard looking and was on standard silver 172 wheels.

Pulled up behind you at the lights this morning before I turned off left into Titchfield. I was in the black 182.

Since I bought my 182 a couple of weeks ago, it has always had a slight hunt on idle. I have read people say it is perfectly normal for these to have a slightly lumpy idle, but it just doesn't feel as smooth as I'd like it to be. Anyway, last couple of days, I have noticed when the car is cold...

Can anybody recommend a good detailer in the Hampshire area, nearer to Portsmouth the better, but would be willing to travel a bit? Would like a good paint correction session on my BG 182. I would be keeping my car clean myself from then on but just initially need it detailed, clay bar, and...

Spotted along the main road next to Sainsbury's near the Shell garage, you were heading towards Eastern Road. I was in the black 182, we looked across at each other. Could have been just a red 182 but pretty sure it was a Trophy. Had a roof rack on too!

Lovely motor this, seen it in the flesh recently. I believe you work in the garage next to the dealer 'Bentleys' in Hook? Bentleys had a Black Gold 182 for sale a couple weeks back, I bought that. Remember seeing this parked up in the garage next door and it looked mint! Also I've never been...

There is a definitely a Liquid Yellow 172/182 going round in Fareham. I saw them the other night (Tues) and I looked over, near Sainsburys roundabout, was in my Black 182. I have seen your Sunflower 172 on a number of occasions though Paul. Looks mint! Haven't seen you of recent, but used to see...

Almost definitely would have been my car. I would have driven past Hampshire Terrace that night. Mine has anthracite/graphite Turinis. Notice you are from Fareham too :)
