    Car pulling to the right under acceleration.

    I'll make sure then, so I can get a decent mechanic working on it for once ;)

    Car pulling to the right under acceleration.

    I don't mind under hard acceleration, but this just feels unstable on the motorway as you trying to correct it all the time.

    Car pulling to the right under acceleration.

    I will do. Going to get it booked into it's second home (The local dealers) to find out.

    Car pulling to the right under acceleration.

    Pressures are fine, 32psi front, 30psi rear. I use to run them higher as I do alot of motorway miles, so I've taken them down to help with this, but still no luck. A bloke at work reckons a worn suspension part.

    Car pulling to the right under acceleration.

    It may just be because my tyres from the rear are now on the front and worn, but the car pulls to the right when accelerating in high gears. The car drives straight, but when you put your foot down on the motorway in 4th or 5th the car pulls to the right. The tracking has been checked and...

    A few problems

    Mine was like this starting, I had new spark plugs, coil packs and leads and the water temp sensor all done under warranty and it still did it. It's stopped now since I got a house with garage. But maybe try a new TDC sensor. Try turning the key till the lights on then off then start...

    What wax should I apply after using Auto Glym Polish?

    Get some Auto Glym - Extra Gloss Protection on before though, as it does make a big difference.

    182 Recaro option seats?

    You should be able to, but I expect it will be over £1k for the seats. Then you need the frames and sort the airbag light out. A few have done it on here, but expect to pay around £1,300 - £1,500 to do it all.

    K-Tec Launch Carbone Lorraine Race Kits

    I use Carbone Lorraine pads on my road bikes, and they are spot on. So going by that, i'll try and get some for the Clio next pad change.

    182 Recaro option seats?

    Yeah you could. I think it was £550 extra and you lost the rear seats for a bottom of the range bench seat, also with different door cards aswell.

    Isn't it the same with the 535d, being a 3.0 but with a small and large turbo?? But those 335's are awesome.

    Quick Question

    I've got one of these, only paid £50 for it with all the leads. http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product/products_id/35.html I think it's great as it doesn't take up all of your boot. You don't need anything louder than this, unless you like to drive up and down the high street with the...

    172/182 - How Many Miles A Week?

    I do around 45miles a day to work and back, plus site mileage (around 50-100 a week). I use the Mrs's car twice a week, but still normally do around 350miles a week in mine with private mileage. I will soon be doing 65miles a day plus site mileage, it's not to much of a concern when your...

    Battery??

    I noticed my green light has gone out on the battery and the car keeps resetting the trip computer when starting. So I've been quoted £49.95 from a local battery dealer, anyone know any good websites where I may get one cheaper?

    How many miles do you get?

    decision on wheels sizes

    TBH the 17's look pretty good on your clio, but I would try and get a nice set of 16's with a low profile tyre to get as close as you can to the orginal size 15's + balloon tyres.

    Cheapest Insurance

    Imagine if you had an accident on roundabout, they almost always go 50/50. tpft isn't worth it mate. As while you argue who's fault it is, which can take a year in one of my cases your car won't get repaired

    Cheapest Insurance

    I wouldn't go tpft, especially with a cup. As said try an fullfat instead, the insurance is cheaper and try Greenlight Insurance or Adrian Flux. TBH £2,600 sounds pretty good for you age. Personally, I would wait untill your 21 and have some NCB. The amount you will waste insurance as I...

    ITG panel filter needs cleaning

    K&N sell a service kit, which has a cleaner and oil. I soak my itg filter in soapy water with the K&N cleaner and use the air filter oil I use on my motorcross bike (About £5 from a bike shop) once it's dry. Alot of people use a bit of petrol to clean the filter.

    Bit of an oil leak (Japfest 2007)

    It certainly was! I think the blue scobby was not far off though before it was on fire of course

    Bit of an oil leak (Japfest 2007)

    It was a great day yesterday. I missed the NSX crash, it sounded bad. The NSX drivers seemed the most carefull of the bunch as well. The blue scooby was quick as hell, such a shame for it to catch fire. The owner had a bad day, his toll care (a forester) broke down in the pits too...

    A Clue on the creaking/knocking noises in my 182...

    Mine did this for ages and drove me mad, but I knew it was coming from the near side. Replaced the lower suspension on the nearside, 'jobs a good un' I think the part was around £60 for Renault.
