    182 Mods

    I like the angle on the new KT 182 exhausts but i think they look a little 2 big on the second piccy! (or is it just me) maybe 3" would have been better.

    Typical Renault (182 oil!)

    I used the enhanced mineral stuff from halfords. Only be in for 5k miles so looking at previous threads seemed the best bet.

    182 gearbox problem - what do i do

    That is what i did last time. complete ball ache! Took the car in, had a problem with the cat but they had to order a new one. So then i had to book more time of work and shell out again for insurance on the courtesy car.

Really cant be arsed taking into Reno, was thinking of waiting till 12k service and telling them then. Just worried if...

    Limit for automatic ban on motorway

    It would be nice to know exactly what the law states.. surely there must be something written down that coppers have to follow. I remember watching a programme where this copper was catching people with radar in 40 zone. He said in that 40 zone they were allowing 10% + 4mph. so you would need...

    Limit for automatic ban on motorway

    Thats helpful coz i do 90 most of the time on motorway, think i might drop my speed a little from now on. Is the decision not upto the policeman who catches you? Could you go to court for doing say 85 on the motorway?

    im finished with optimax!

    I think i will go for a compromise then. super 3 times a month, optimax once. This will still save me about £150 a year so I get my car tax for free based ib what im spending now.

    K-Tec Clio Turbo

    The issues that jump to mind straight away are: Pistons, Clutch, Gearbox, Exhaust Thats even before the turbo. Dont get me wrong would love to have one but im sure reno will bite the bullet soon enough and chuck the 225 lump in the clio. :D. probably at the same price of the 182 aswell

    182 - service costs @ 12k, 24k etc

    Just wondering what the costs are every 12k as just seen a price of £800 for 72k service which is very worrying!! Does anyone know what the first 3 are roughly ? 12k, 24k, 36k ??

    182 running rough at startup

    yep, mine same. what i do is start it up and leave it for 2 minutes without touching accelerator. when you set off after 2 mins should be spot on.
