Spencer does all my dent removals- hes a gd bloke- http://www.dent-rite.co.uk/index.html Steve

It will be intersesting if the bus lead from the 6 disk you have in the Ph1 ( I forgot to mention) connects with the 182 H/Unit from a 182- S

yes- found the code in the GAMMA book- unusual- all working- pity the stalk isnt working though- had to manually do it whilst inputting the code on the main pad- oh well- cd's work!!! Steve

will this be for the smaller connector block?? thanks-:cool: YESSSSS we have lift off= CODE 0000- which is good because it doesnt neede a reset- Pity the front page of the service book doesnt have it in it- :( Thanks for the help gents- Steve

well it was plugged in for a good 5 mins but on & off a few times- I take it it would have to be the full amount of time? did you have just the 2 connector blocks like my pic-? Is the radio thing on the right the only other thing required? thanks Steve

Right I set about refitting the standard stereo today- as you can see I thought this would be straight forward- X2 block connectors & the radio connector- http://img510.imageshack.us/img510/8265/stereo001.jpg http://img510.imageshack.us/img510/2033/stereo002.jpg So I connect them all...

Thanks- Steve

I have a 172 PH2- ( 53 plate) The rear parcel shelf has 2 6x9's- Did the standard car come with any speakers on the back shelf or was the car just front door cars X2 & rear door cards..?? thanks Steve

Sanspeed ( I pressume bexleyheath) do do a lot of work on performance cars & ive never heard a bad work against them, however on this occasion I would take advice from Mark fish on this one to be sure- Steve

hey dave- hows the car?- looking good in those photos - at least it had a good machine + polish as a base....;) Steve

Theres certainly some irony in this thread with what Jamie said, I hasnt to add I didnt know that he was buying it otherwise I wouldnt have even looked-Its always down to the decision of the seller to inform third parties of whats going on- In this situation he should of been clear either way...

I agree with all this apart from a couple of circumstances- The OP is ok because the car is factory standard & the glasses guide is fairly is easy to follow once its mileage adjusted- Occasionally the guide is difficult to use on the Private ID paint cars for example,( like say a moonlight...

+1 ^^ Once you have driven a 182 then drive a trophy you will never want to get back in the 182- its as simple as that- I just sold a trophy as well-:o Steve

probably Bought Clocked & being sold on- Reserve was 17k on first run on Ebay- LOLS- probably go for 15.5- it is silver after all- S

Looks nice & shiney- Also looks like its been lowered at some point- All it needs is some decent alloys... sell those gash ones on it & get some nice standard ones - Steve

Wasnt Me- Steve

first dibs on the calipers & disks- S

I thought that,however who would buy a cup to then put heavier seats in it...+ the respray story- I have other pics on request- I left it very well alone though... \steve

no problems.......... :approve::approve::approve: Steve

Hi Lee I am going to take a Wild stab in the dark here- There was a racing blue for sale on Pistonheads a while back it seemed cheap so I asked a few questions about it- It was in the NW up past Carlisle- Basically when I enquired the owner said the car had been scrached along the side by a...

isnt racing blue is it? S

Not sure why people are commenting on the large extra cost of a trophy- A Standard 182 on an 05 with 36k is retailing around 6.5k, If you pick a like for like trophy your paying 1k more- Thats 1k more for better wheels, better suspension by a country mile & recaro front seats which from what I...

Glad your enjoying the car!! & your making full use of that full tank of Petrol as well!!! ;) Steve

Ive had a few 182's & one thing I have noticed apart from the usual problems highlighted already is how slow the steering rack can be going from full lock to full lock- Im talking do something like a 3 point turn- but if you take a tight left & a tight right fast the steering rack struggled to...

:( Just an appendum to that- if its gets written off offer from insurance company IIRC is 50% of book price- Book is around 6500- So 3k- S

No Service book + No cambelt S

I think they are different- The joins @ the top of the pipes that go to the manifold have a different stud/gasket pattern IIRC- Steve

Looking at the photos & how high the front sits I would be a little dubious in terms of this car having the cup suspension.... The alloys dont right look the right colour although I could be wrong- S

Maybe the definitive list?? Looks- Trophy Recaros- Cromadora Alloys ( V6 Clio Trophy Ones) KW Variant 3 Suspension- Front Splitter All Grills sprayed Satin Black- Better & larger Calipers & Disks Tuning- Motec engine Management- Full Exhaust system ( Janspeed is good & fitted by SG)-...

No probs - your only up the road in Croydon- its only 30 mins going through West Wickham & chislehurst- Get a feel for the looks etc-- Ive had a LY 182 & LY v6- Whats also funny is when you clean it how the little greenflies start landing on the bonnet & roof- Its like an advert for...
