    182 limited numbers

    Not seen a 182 in 4 weeks and probably see a focus rs at least once a week. Think there are only 5000 focus rss over here .. There cant be that many 182s on the road yet, by the sounds of it they cant get them out of the factory fast enough!

    182 limited numbers

    Had the car 4 weeks now and not seen a single one on the road yet and I do approx 400 miles per week. Does anyone know how many have been made / being made ? It would be nice to have a rare car. How long are Renault making the 182s for 1/2/3 years ????

    182 import alarm/imobiliser

    182 unleaded octane grade

    A mate had an imported subaru sti and was losing approx 30 bhp because he was runnin it on 95 grade. I guess that is nearly 10% so the clio could be losing out on approx 18 bhp!

    182 unleaded octane grade

    I have an imported 182 and inside the filler cap it recommends the car is run on 98 grade i.e optimax. Are the uk renault dealer supplied 182s the same? I have been running it on normal 95 unleaded while running it in. Now it is ran in I have opened it up a little and it suprisingly very...

    Quicky - Setting ESP on 182

    I press the button to turn it on and then have to do it again if I have turned the ignition off? How do you set this so it comes back on when you have turned the ignition off and on again... Do you have to hold it down or something? Hope this isnt a fault on my car !!!

    Best Renault dealer in North West

    I rang Renault cus services the other day to register my car (import). Found the guy quite good on the other end, asked me if there was any problems with the car, how it was running etc.. Thought they might have been a bit funny with me because it was an import and i didnt buy it from a franchise.

    Best Renault dealer in North West

    All this is very reassuring ... not Think i will do some asking around to see if someone knows someone who works at Renault who will look after my car. Always the best way I think, especially with what everyone has been writing above :(

    182 cruise control mph slightly out

    Used it for first time on my 182 today. Seems slightly out though? Set it to say 70 on the trip computer and the speedometer reads 71/72 ? Same if you set it at 75 or 80, 1 or 2 mph out. Is this a calibration fault or is this common on other peoples 182 ?
