    Silver 182..... Paint calipers or not?

    Gold... sounds odd, looks brilliant, especially with anthracite wheels.

    first 3 days with my RS

    Welcome mate, have fun! Another Essex member here :approve:

    Okay I changed my dials today, couple of issues!

    So regarding the needle positions I had a little play today, and tbh I've made them a lot better. They're now sitting okay and the 'kick' puts them back to the same position rather than increasing them each time. This is how they're currently sitting when idle... Firstly excuse the...

    Okay I changed my dials today, couple of issues!

    To be honest I think it's all them a little bit... will the above method work with the other dials as well?

    Okay I changed my dials today, couple of issues!

    See this isn't what's happening to me! It doesn't go back to it's normal position... it goes too far up, and every time I turn the car off it goes another millimetre or two, thus I eventually end up with them well out. I've put the dash back together for the time being as I need to use it, but...

    Okay I changed my dials today, couple of issues!

    Okay thanks barker, I ended up twisting the needles a bit when taking them off again, now they all seem to be out a bit :S is it just a case of trial and error to get them into the correct position? As for the trip computer I noticed by pressing on the back of the dial unit it comes back! Let...

    182 Milage

    Since when is 70k miles high lol... mileage means nothing anyway. My 46k 182 was a s**t heap, my 109k 182 is lovely! :evil:

    Okay I changed my dials today, couple of issues!

    Firstly I noticed when I turn off the car now there's a 'kick' when the needles go down... they seem to go slightly too far, and the 'kick' brings them back into line, this isn't normal is it? I swear it wasn't doing it before! Then I also noticed the temperature gauge was going too far down...

    V6 Acid Yellow Sex

    Scid Yellow? Is that with a bit of a brown flip to it.

    Can I install white needles... and removing dial rings!

    Hi two things here... 1) I want white needles... I believe some other Clio models have these as standard? If so can I use them on my 182? Otherwise I'll have to spray what I've got I guess. 2) I want to remove the dial rings for spraying, it seems they just have to be forced off. Is there a...

    Anthracite roof 182

    I don't think so. Maybe it would work on a silver car.

    Cup spoiler colour...

    Hi someone selling a 'silver' cup spoiler... obviously these came on the 182's but was it the same on the 172's? I've asked him if it's Titanium or Iceberg but not had a response as yet :S

    Few more MK4 spy shots

    Probably for the best... :dead: Come to think of it, the new RS Megane is 3 door only innit? So why have they gone from 3dr & 5dr on the Megane to just 3dr... and going from just 3dr on the Clio to just 5dr!? Sense, it makes none.

    Quick Clean of R27 before it rained.....again!

    Agree, plates are awful! Does look nice though :star: the colour of the car/wheels/F1 stickers look great. Not sure about the yellow stickers in general, but the front R27 looks all right.
  15. CrippsCorner

    Few more MK4 spy shots

    Yeah but the RS Megane is available in 5 door and how many do you see? I's say at least 75% of them are bought in 3 doors...

    Interior trim and dash removal...

    Okay that was embarrassingly easy lol... don't think I've seen a Ph1 gear knob? Thing is I'm kinda trying to get away from silver on the interior ;) When you say the blowers for the windscreen do you mean right next to it? I've not had a proper look yet but imagine they're quite hard to...
  17. CrippsCorner

    cannot decide, please help

    Even though I much prefer the Ph2, I'd just keep what you've got now! If you want a 'change' why not go for a completely different car altogether anyway?

    Interior trim and dash removal...

    Hi I'm soon to prepare getting parts off that I want sprayed up... to start of with the steering wheel insert, gear knob insert and the dash strips. Do I literally just pop these out of place with a knife or something? I looked through the 'guide' part of the forum but couldn't find anything...

    Got Bored :P Look What i got!

    I think most people will think it's worth it at the time... but then later think why did they bother lol. It cost me around £6k to run my Impreza STI for a year, at the time it was simply amazing. Now though, I'd much rather have the money in my bank!

    172 Cup & 197 in Peak District

    I think I was yeah... first time ever round those parts, I was driving home from Liverpool and thought I'd check out the Peak District on the way home! I was in a titanium 182 :)

    Track Rod Ends... Help!

    Have a search there's two types of rack it can attach to... SMI or TRW, most are SMI. If there's no sticker on there (have to jack up and look underneath) then it's worth presuming it's SMI. Price sounds good I think I paid about £45 a side.

    Out With the fast in with the slow

    Have to admit I dunno how she does it, she's more of a boy racer than me!

    Out With the fast in with the slow

    As said not really going to be a big saving... my 182 gives me 28mpg average and £390 to insure. My mum's 78bhp 1.4 Fiesta (also 57 plate like your new car) gives her 30mpg and costs £460 to insure. Both running 16" wheels too so no saving on tyres (apart from she will go budget lol) and her...

    172 Cup & 197 in Peak District

    Saw both yesterday during the day... blue Cup and silver 197!

    Thinking about buying a Trophy

    Same here I get around 26-28mpg from pure town driving, just done a 500 mile round motorway trip this week and only managed 36mpg... do I have a problem!? I'm still so happy compared to the 12mpg average I was getting from my Subaru I owned before the Clio!

    The 'Where's my old Clio' Thread.

    Sold my first 182 about 4 years ago now... EJ05 WMK silver with both cup packs and Recaro's, man I wish I still had them!

    Cruise control & speed limiter not working, at all...

    Is it worth taking the actual CC/SL button off and having a look, perhaps wiring issues or something?
  29. CrippsCorner

    Twingo RS, £5650

    Yes cool people do, only faggots use Facebook.

    Cruise control & speed limiter not working, at all...

    But I have a brand new brake switch now and have that working fine?
