Spotted you twice, once going out of town over the railway bridge, then back towards town a bit later. I was stood by the Stratford Victoria, had just been for a quick look round the mop.
Wasn't exactly hard to spot you with your name all over the car still :clown:
If you need some urgently, your local halfords should have some in. Just standard OEM replacements, but they'd do the job for now.
Otherwise you could try somewhere like your local GSF branch, and get some Pagid Fast road pads for £28.
Donington was quite hard on the brakes, only had a...
I used the silver hammerite smooth on my 172's calipers and it was fine during normal road use. After trackdays though I had to reapply it because the silver whent a nice gold colour due to the heat :clown:
Weird. How thin are the surfaces? Are either of the two wear markers still left on them?
Just wondering because I know the discs get eaten up very quickly with the PF pads. I have to change my discs after a couple of trackdays.
Jesus, how the hell did you manage that. :eek:
Are these the Brembo Max discs still? I've hammered mine on trackdays and never even had any signs of warping, can't imagine how you got them to fracture like that. :confused:
Just thought i'd post up the pics of my repair job with the PC.
The plan was to tackle the etching that had been left on the rear bumper and tailgate by some evil bird crap.
This was what it looked like before i started. This was as good as i could get it after a couple of treatments by...
As far as I know, the Seward group have got the Renault franchise for the south, so it means goodbye to Liningtons, and from whats been posted on here, Olympian Renault too. Olympian have many different franchises so will still be selling other makes, but for Liningtons Renault is all they...
Ha ha, glad you found the spare Mark. I got a spare with my 172 but theres only one key with the locking nuts for my Trophy.
Have a good day tomorrow, wish I was going now.

Big thanks to Shaun for guiding me through the buying process.
Pics to follow soon, got a nicely swirled test car to give it a run on first, then onto giving the Trophy a go.

This is a fairly common 182 problem I believe. I had it on my 172, and it was down to a faulty switch on the brake pedal. This causes the ABS system to register a fault, which is cleared when the ignition is switched off.
Also check to see how much movement you have to apply to the pedal...
