    Glaceol RX Type E LDR Blue coolant sent by mistake or genuinely the right stuff?

    You don't trust the new type E? From what I've read it's the same spec as the type D and can be mixed with type D. Both go down to - 21 It makes you wonder why they're discontinuing the type D and replacing it with type E though?

    Where to buy numberplates online?

    Fancyplates has no BSAU number on, completely plain plates. No documents required and never had a problem come MOT time.

    Where to buy numberplates online?

    I used fancyplates. Legal, plain plates. They were £29.00 delivered.

    Recommendations for dry fast road tyres?

    You're probably right. There are better. And they are a slightly older tyre now. But for the price and how they perform on the road I think they're a bargain.

    Recommendations for dry fast road tyres?

    I've been running Avons for a few years now and can't fault them when pushing on in the dry or wet.

    Recommendations for dry fast road tyres?

    The Michelin Exalto PE2s were a brilliant tyre imo. I'd still run them now if they were still available in the right size for my 182. After they were discontinued I ran Rainsport 2s for a while then Rainsport 3s, which were both brilliant in the wet but didn't last long. I'd average about 5k...

    Handbrake Cable

    These fit. I've got them on my 182. https://www.partsinmotion.co.uk/car-parts/braking/handbrake-cables/borgbeckhandbrakecablebkb3048-detail https://www.partsinmotion.co.uk/car-parts/braking/handbrake-cables/first-line-hand-brake-cable-fkb3049-detail

    Clio 172 noise from engine

    On a 1*2. Aux belt and pulleys is every 5 years or 36k miles. People automatically assume it's every 3 years with it being 36k and the timing belt being every 5 years and 72k.

    New Headlights

    AFAIK, they're still available direct from Renault. Or they were last year. My 182 was in the bodyshop last year for a front end repair and he sourced a brand new offside xenon headlight from Renault in France.

    BRR Exhaust Brackets

    I have 2 for my 182 but haven't fitted them yet. I gave them an extra coat of rustoleum, probably a bit of overkill but I know they'll never rust again when I eventually do for them. They're very good quality.

    Spark plugs

    I've never heard of anybody running Bosch fuel injectors. And definitely not a revised part, whatever that might mean? As @hopgop1 said. You want genuine Magneti marelli.

    Where's the go to place for 172/182 injectors these days?

    They're £181 including delivery from Autodoc. https://m.autodoc.co.uk/magneti-marelli/1858040

    Where's the go to place for 172/182 injectors these days?

    They've definitely shot up price recently.

    Arrived this morning from Amazon 😊

    Where's the go to place for 172/182 injectors these days?

    The last ones I got were from Renparts, £35 each. Now they're £53.50. Still cheaper than a lot of other places selling them for 70 or 80 quid 😮

    Where's the go to place for 172/182 injectors these days?

    I've just ordered 4 genuine Magneti marelli from Amazon. They did have 4 left when I ordered them but they've only 2 left now. 40 quid each. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0068M8966?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image

    Haven't got a clue what you're on about. Care to share the info?

    Best Clio specialist garage in Manchester?

    Another vote for @Birchdown from me. It's a 180 mile round trip for me, but well worth it. Andy and Steve are top blokes, they won't BS you or pull your pants down.

    Occasional and often misfire

    Definitely that. If its running on the cold map it'll be over fueling.

    ***How much is it worth?***

    I'd say round about £4 - 4.5k but at that price it might be a longer wait. £3.5k for a quicker sale.

    STEERING WHEEL ANGLE SENSOR FOR 182 CUP

    First time I've heard that you can do this. From what I've learnt. You need Clip software or something similar to recalibrate when fitting a new ( 2nd hand) sensor. I thought once the SaS was knackered ,that's it.I'm watching with interest. To the OP @Richg78 . They're hard to come by 2nd hand...

    Exhaust Lamda sensors

    If you've used genuine Bosch lambda sensors I'd be looking at your aftermarket Cat? When you change a lambda sensor the ecu picks this up and there's usually no need to clear the old codes.

    Genuine Bosch lambda sensors or cheap ones?

    2.4m wood lengths into 182

    2.4m lengths fit in easily from the passenger seat with the backrest folded down as far as possible to the rear drivers side corner. 3m, you'll have to have them sticking out through the passenger side window. Plasterboards, no chance.

    Anybodys on here?

    We had an i10 from differentcarrentals. The gearbox was shite. We had a full English the first morning from Kaliva. There were cats everywhere but they didn't cause any problem. They always seemed to keep their distance. We absolutely loved the place. Every restaurant was spot on. We've just...

    Anybodys on here?

    We had a base spec Hyundai i10. Shite gearbox but was perfect for what we needed. We went to Flamingoes a couple of nights ago. It was really good food and very cheap. We like to go to a different restaurant every night. I usually prebook them so we know we're definitely getting a table. First...

    Anybodys on here?

    The roads are rough as f**k in places, but still not as bad as in the UK with potholes. We were actually going to go to Socrates tonight, our last night we had a last minute change of plan.

    In Skala, Kefalonia. Hasn't moved all week.

    Windscreen washer pump issue. Nowhere sells the correct one??

    I just went with the febi one that I'd read on here was a direct replacement and it was just of swapping the old with the new and it worked perfect. That was for the front screen washer jets. Are you after number 4 in the diagram?
