    My track car, nearly finished!!

    Not a fan of the wheels, Renault got it right with the F1s IMO.... Oh and no to white painting the tyre logo

    Spent a few quid on the interior!

    Too bright for me, sticks out too much.... But if you're happy with it :) I see you took the pic under the bridge in old Leigh, I'm in need of different location inspiration in the area (I live in Thundersley) The car itself looks really clean

    oz f1 owners inside please.

    Sorry to be a dumbass but what does <3 mean? I understand the Lolz and PMSL just not the above (possibly showing my age here?) :o

    Bah - Still cutting out

    Mine had the odd miss after being fixed and CLIP cleared but cleared itself out :)

    Looks like you're good to go :)

    Konigsports or SPAX coilovers?

    If you have the 54mm spacing hubs I'd go for FK, dampers by Koni and they feel better than the Spax. Just a shame FK aren't in 'cup' 60mm. Still early days for me on Spax, I'm not saying they're bad I d prefer to have the Konigsports

    And you've put both sensors in the decat and tried that? Like you say it's the process of elimination and the time doing it that's the killer

    Low MPG again indicates lambda to me, if running lean the ECU would dump more fuel in? Air/fuel mixture is set so if it's outside the parameters it readjusts.... Or spits its dummy. Again I'm no expert so someone might have other ideas but above is how I'd see it? Also there's a vacuum pipe...

    FAO - Cliosport.net old-timers

    I first joined Cliosport in 2000, I had a black Clio 'valver' lowered, rolling on 17" TSW Venoms :D The club back then was littered with 16v models with the introduction of the Mk1 172 coming out. I think Nick and Jas ran the club back then. Ill have to dig out a pic

    Does the TB have a gasket too, is that ok? Inlet manifold gaskets? Just thinking air leaks

    Coolant temp sensor can throw up problems and not show up on the code readers too :o :D Are you looking into fitting the rear lambda in the decat to clear that off the list?

    Doesn't the TB have to reset if it's been taken off too?

    Was gonna say I thought the 182 was FBW and not cable like the Phs1 Clio 172

    Destructive misfire help..

    Well with mine it idled ok and drove ok on light throttle cruising but on full throttle it misfired slightly, rear sensor. I'd say have them tested, could try swapping them. CLIP should give you a reading on the sensors

    Possibly, I'd say fit the sensor in the decat, clear the codes and try again. The ECU will IMO re learn new cycles with it hopefully running ok. No harm in giving it a go

    See this is what I was saying about the rear sensor, mine is fitted in the decat. When the car was cold it was spot on, as soon as it was on temp it started running badly. Apparently 182s are quite sensitive regarding anything emission related, a friend of mine worked for Renault. That damn EML...

    You can test the lambda sensor off the car with a multimeter and blow torch, heat up the sensor and take a voltage reading. I can't remember what voltage but when it gets hot the voltage rises fairly quick. Maybe the garage could test it?

    Air leak?
  20. Ricardos

    Bah - Still cutting out

    I have a decat on my 182 and have both lambda sensors in place, the post cat sensor wire was ripped off the main loom causing it to judder on full throttle, clear on light throttle. Hard wired the lambda direct to the loom, cleared the dash lights on CLIP and it's been fine ever since. Some...

    So I went to Renault....

    Jeez, I paid £5 each from Renault a year ago. There's 2 centre caps on Dialogys that look similar to each other and some parts people get em mixed up, 1 is about £16 and 1 is £5. Unless you quoted the part number that's on the back of the centre cap to them

    It's been a while: The RB182 is back

    Wow, stunning, the ride height on the OE wheels is just right :) I bet its nice to have it back on the road after all that work

    Renault 172 alloys in 15"???

    They are slightly different in style on the spokes to the Alium model wheel I believe

    Renault 172 alloys in 15"???

    Yep that's the name, I've just been on E Bay and there's 1 on there with a bid of £80 with minutes to go. Apparently about £150 each from Renault.

    10mm hub-centric spacers?

    How much for them?

    Emissions light come on -fault codes found, anything to worry about?

    A simple blow in the joins either end of the cat can throw up an EML too

    Speedline 2118 wheel bolts and spigots.

    I bought new Speedlines in white and am sure they were ET43, i still have the boxes so will have a look. They also came with the bolts
