You need an 8mm. square plug to fit this, don't know the actual thread size though, is that really necessary?

Thats the one^^^^ Sometimes a black plug. Its on the front side of the gearbox facing the radiator, Yer probably have to remove the airbox to make it easier.

Bit of a gamble mate, especially buying it unseen. This kind off thing gets my juices going, if bought cheap, cheap. Hope it is an easy fix for you.

Might have inverted the Master cylinder seals, or not put the pads back in their original positions. Hopefully the latter in which case they need bedding in again. Also the rears need the handbrake operating a few times to adjust up .

Oi you! stop spending money on yer car.

What does he mean?

Also, if it is too low you'll be riding on the bumpstops at every pothole and every lean at corners. I never was a fan of coilovers, they seem too bouncy on tracks when riding the kerbs, anyone else think the same?

Mine took a litre off ATE Blue to completely clean the old fluid out. As the above post says try and empty the Master cylinder first using some sort of sqeezy bottle with a tube attached. Start at the furthest bleed nipple away from the master cylinder ending up with the nearest and if you have...

Just take the brake disc and new bearing. If the old one needs to be pushed out allow 2 Mars bars. The Clios brakes are the same brake configuration as your Ibiza.

The old non-enviromentily friendly gas was R12. Yes the new stuff is R134.

The thermostat is on the end of the engine with the top hose connected to it. You can flush the cooling sytem by disconnecting the top & bottom hoses, then stick the hosepipe in every pipe and run water through for a few minutes also take the expansion bootle cap off and flush from there. You...

No mate oop north is a lovely place to be, except they boil vegetables to a mush.

:rolleyes:Kids.

Yes Sussex is expensive. I assume your renting, £500 a month can get you £100k mortgage but you do need a decent deposit, thats the hard part.

I see you live in Preston so housing should be a lot cheaper there, Down sarf you can't buy a 1 bed flat for under £110 k.

Even better, sell your 182 and buy a £ 1k cheap runabout for a year or two. House will come quicker and then see where you are financially.

Call out the AA man, He will give it a free scan so you will know the fault codes, then act on them.

Stick with the tried and tested HC's and DS pads. EBC's, don't make me laugh.

He could stick some Renault badges on them and in all innocence assume they are Renault's. He hasn't had the car very long I believe, not a problem then. The most that could happen is the insurance co. would not pay for wheels to be repaired. It's hardly a performance mod on a 1.2

I can't see an insurance co. not paying out just for having the non OE wheels, after all they are Renault ones and would probably been an option/accessory when the car was new. Any subsequent owner would not know this. If there were some other mods that were obviously not a Renault made part...

As house prices are at the moment relatively cheap, the quicker you get one the better. So save every penny you can now and leave the car alone for a while. Unless you are rich, you like most of us can't have it all. Happy house hunting.

Someone must have modded mine before I bought it then.

You don't need a guide, Lift the front of the car enough for you to see around the bottom of the engine bay. Remove engine undertray if you have one. Remove front grill. The top bit. Remove front bumper. Remove slam panel. Remove Air filter box. Unplug & Remove Electric fan. Unplug the fan...

HCs yes, unless they are grooved discs, then they are Max's. DS Pads yes. Castrol Response Yes or Castrol SRF if you are rich. Did you run plenty of fresh fluid through each bleed nipple to flush out the old stuff? I suck out the old fluid from the master cylinder resovoir first then...

Mine has one.

Google them or look on Ebay.

Now usually I hate inapropriatly painted wheels, I always like the original colours such as silver and silver but YES they look great on your white car. Must be a 1st. for me. By the way, is that Neil Bartlett Ex. Golf nut?

The Brembos you had in the red box will be HC discs, so they can stay. I have Ferodo DS pads and ATE Blue Dot 4. to go with them and they were great on the first track day, no spongy pedal or fade. You definitely need a good brake fluid such as Castrol Response dot4 or ATE blue dot4. Some of...
