    My 182 Sounds a Little Strange...

    I'd say it deffo is 99% certain the car is revving i hear and feel it through my right foot, as to the speed increasing or not, it's hard to say as it barely lasts long enough to notice. I would say though, it seems as though the car takes over for that split sec. New clutch is it if it's due...

    My 182 Sounds a Little Strange...

    Wheelspinning, no. It is fine driving 'normally' ie, not putting the foot to the floor.

    My 182 Sounds a Little Strange...

    Any revs and any speed! very strange, although not in 1st gear i have noticed. I can be cruising in say 2nd gear or 3rd then boot it to the floor and it will rev on it's own for a sec then carry on as before. I would take it in but it's out of warrenty - just, only done 20k aswell.

    My 182 Sounds a Little Strange...

    when i boot it and put my foot on the gas - all the way to the floor it then suddenly revs up on it's own WTF!! only does it now and again for half a sec or so but it's beginning to annoy me now. Any ideas? Cheers.

    Diy Alloy Refurb *In Progress* Help Needed

    I'd just like to make sure about this point as i've just read this on another forum. Here's the quote. "Rub over the entire front face of the wheel... including every single nook and cranny with the 240 grit wet and dry paper. You will notice when and area is 'ready' as the surface will...

    Diy Alloy Refurb *In Progress* Help Needed

    There are no scratches, it's very very smooth at the mo just taking absolutely ages to do. Nitro-mors is tempting but think i'll give that a miss! I've got an orbital sander but water and electric dont mix.
