    Servicing question.

    IIRC the price of the first service is pretty small, so best ring up for a price and compare it to an independent using genuine parts

    SCORPION RS192 EXHAUST

    Do a search, theres been quite a few threads about them and they appear to be fairly good if you're looking for a fairly quiet aftermarket exhausts. I'd quite like one

    Mk2 Key - Waterproof?

    Passenger door open, central locking button on the dash then use the key. TBH I can't remeber about the alarm.

    Mk2 Key - Waterproof?

    With the bath test, did it get bashed about and squashed like it would do on the inside of your wetsuit? Any air in there that got squashed would try and pop open the top seal. Both me and my sister have clio's and surf. We both took our spare keys apart and took them to the local key cutting...

    The best way to apply polish ??

    Are you still referring to SRP here? Cos a 5p peice I find would have dried out on a foam applicator before I'm a 3rd way across the bonnet.

    Hi, newbie from Colchester,

    Welcome, what colour 172? You might spot me driving around Colchester between 10am and 1 every morning.

    Newbie From Essex White RS200

    Hello and welcome, car looks lovely. I'll keep my eye out for you. Spotted a LY 200 along the A120 a few weeks ago so they're certainly getting more popular.

    PE2's 205/45 16 83V

    I'm in need of 2 tyres for my MOT next month, then another 2 will be needed before Xmas. What can you do Fred and you may get an order for 4 from me within a month. Last time I bought 4 I went direct to a place in Harlow where the Renault Dealership got them from and were £89 each (if I bought...

    Anyone heard of this company to get turbo from?

    I personnally never had any problems with BB, nor did any of my friends or local people that I new of deal with them for both Renault and Vauxhall stuff. I'm not disputing people did have problems but it doesn't take much before a company can get a bad rep once it gets onto any kind of forum...

    Espace V6 Airbox

    As Icarus once said to me about my setup, (similar with same type air feed but to foglight) Forced air won't become useable till 100mph+ so not really any point, also it means any debris is less likely to make it all the way up to the filter! Plus it creates a lot of turbulant air within the...

    Turbines width & weight?

    they're a 6.5". Don't know the exact weight but with 195/45/15 tyres on they felt alot heavier than the standard 182 wheels and tyres

    Anybody?

    On a Nova with a 2.0 ltr turbo conversion it made a huge difference in the running and idle, wouldn't run properly without it. It did help on a friends clio 16v. But no need for one on newer cars like the 1*2 due to the higher fuel pressure they already run

    v6 airbox

    The way I'm feeling now after just catching my rear bumper, I'm tempted to put it all back to standard. Anyone want to make me an offer on a good condition Espace V6 airbox, K&N element, black Samco inlet elbow, silicone 45' feed into the wheel arch and 1m 102mm dia CAF ducting.

    195 or 205 tyre width for 182?

    Standard the 182 comes with 205. 195's do fit on the standard 182 wheels and are possibly a little cheaper, but I don't know what affect they would have on the handling

    Compbrake TopMounts - Movement Modification

    I've had mine fitted for approx 6months and think they have greatly improved the front end feel and stopped all knocking. I won't be changing back to OE mounts. I fitted them with the rubber washers and 'o'rings and marked the position of the lock ring and mount in relation to the chassic and...

    Liquid Yellow touch up paint

    Any one know where I can get any kind of touch up pen/ pre mixed paint from, Renault dealership couldn't help and said there was 3 different shades anyway???:( Someone knocked into my rear wing at the weekend when it was in a carpark and taken a small bit of paint off just infront of the rear...

    LY Clio 200 - Coggeshall A120

    Driving towards Colchester on the A120 past Coggeshall, RS200 in Liquid Yellow with anthracite front bumper. Both gave a wave as I headed towards Braintree about 5pm

    Clio Cup & Espace V6 box element

    They did use both setups at some point. When they used the V6 airbox they kept with a standard paper element and changed it reguarly IIRC

    Recommend me a sealant and wax

    I'm still only a beginner at detailing and just coming to the end of my 1st lot of products. I currently use AG SRP & EGP, then top it off with Collinite 476. I love the look the EGP gives, and not had any problems with the 476 wax, but unless you try something new I'll never know the...

    Playing with a TT on the east lancs

    Don't dispute that, but 90% of people generally won't push it far enough to hit top end. So the TT will never be in the speed range to start to show the extra power

    Your basic first timer detailing kit?

    I use pretty much the same stuff but with Collinites 476 wax, seems to be best for durability and beading and all applied by hand/ foam applicator

    Playing with a TT on the east lancs

    You shouldn't have too much trouble keeping up with the 3.2 TT, especially it the clio isn't standard

    KTR ULTRA PERFORMANCE 182 EXHAUST SYSTEM supersport

    So how has everyone fitted these systems then? have you all modified the CAT join to open it up to a full 2.5", or does it fit some other way?

    Airbox Advice ?

    Back on topic though, I reckon a 45' bend from the TB onto the airbox, then a CAF up from where I've just mentioned ^^^ would be best IMO.

    Airbox Advice ?

    It just points down into the gap between the bumper and arch liner, towards the foglight, where the horn and acoustic valve would be. its not so much a feed anymore but cold air relocation. Still picks up well but as Icarus said it shouldn't restrict the airflow entering it, especially as I've...

    Airbox Advice ?

    Looking at the pic, it would work quite well with an Espace V6 airbox. The single 102mm feed could point straight down behind the headlight to reduce all the bends, then could sit within the wheel arch or down the the foglight. Not sure if I want to relocate my battery though. The operators at...

    French car RR day

    Did the operator say anything about the results, they seemed to think standard airbox's were giving better gains than IK's unless fitted with a decent CAF. What was your feed and airbox? smoother power curve this time having the cat bag in?

    LY 182 - M11 southbound

    Driving towards Stansted on the M11 last night about 8.30. The GF spotted you but I didn't. :eek: This is the 2nd time I've seen you going in the opposite direction on the M11 and both times I've been driving the GF's golf. lol
