I mean cars you can buy today. I know the 182 is coming to the end of its life as well, but what else is out there that is a serious rival to the 182? I really for the life of me, cant think of many.... Lets forget about Astras (VXR), Focuses (ST), and Golfs (GTI), because they are rivals to...

I do apologise if these have been posted before :rasp: Anyway, if not here you go!

As title really, the dealer says its because of the alarm, but surely it should work anyway? It only actually ever seems to light up when I press the butoon on the keyfob, but I'd expect it to lock your doors when you press it when your inside the car?

How easy is it for a thief to steal an otherwise unprotected 182 - i'm talking just the std alarm / immobiliser. I saw a Pug 306 today in a place where i park relatively regularly in newcastle with the door bent open, and it got me thinking how easy it is to nick one of these? I've got a...

I'm just wondering if its normal for the 182 to have lumpy idling. Its like you can feel the engine being lumpy.Its not apparent when the car is cold, and once on the move its fine. It is not close to cutting out or anything, its just not particularly smooth. I'm running optimax BTW, but I've...

I've read various topics on the weight of the 182, and have read anything from about 1090 kg to 1150 kg. It seems clear to me that not many people *really* know the weight of it. However, according to my handbook (the seperate Renault Sport one), it weighs 1035 kg. And it is the one for the 182...

On my way home tonight, I noticed the car limiting my revs to less than 7000. I've read the other posts about the car not being warmed up... But.... you'd think after 9 miles of motorway speeds at 75 mph in 7 deg celcius temperatures that the oil would be warmed up by now??? How long does the...

How accurate is the speedometer in the 182, has anyone measured it? How many MPH out is it at a given speed?

Seems crap to me. Almost exactly the same as the one in my Skoda vRS, a total nanny over what you can do. So what i'm saying is not surprising to any of you, but it just confirms in my mind that most traction control systems on hot hatches are pretty poor. It just crudely cuts the power and...

I've had my Clio 182 nearly a couple of weeks now and am really enjoying it, but I've noticed the acceleration sometimes seems a little "inconsistent". Sometimes when I hit the "zone", i.e. that point above about 5k rpm where it really picks up, sometimes it kicks in with real violence, but...

OK, I got a second hand 182, with 5k miles on the clock. I asked the dealer if it had the cup pack, but they said they simply did not know. I put the pictures on a forum, and from what I gather, some people commented and said "at least you have the cup pack"... now i know for a fact it aint got...

Hi, I picked up my second hand 5000 mile Clio 182 today, I am impressed with its power and handling, however I've noticed at times there seems to be a noise coming from the dash area when accelerating hard, sounds kinda like a whistle or ringing sound, as if something is resonating with the...
