The 182 i bought last month, has one of these installed. I believe it is the 3.0 version. First thing in the morning when it's cold it feels great. However after a half hour drive to work it gradually gets stiffer and stiffer. Basically it's so stiff that i can push the gear stick over when in...

My brother has decided to sell his MX-5 for some reason, I think he's making a mistake personnally, but if anyone is interested it's up on eBay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mazda-MX5-mk3-NC-/122034953873?hash=item1c69d99e91:g:FN4AAOSwbYZXeWxz Not the best ad in the world, but it's a nice genuine...

Currently I've got T1R's on the car, and i'm not impressed with them, they were on the car when i bought it about 3-4 weeks ago. I'd like to spend around £75 per tyre ideally, so i've been eyeing the Nankang NS-2R up and looking through threads and reviews etc for a couple of days. Dry grip is...

I posted this is the wrong section the other day and haven't got a reply yet. So will try again here. Basically, i've had the 182 for about 3 - 4 weeks now, but over the last couple of weeks at least it's not been running right. I've had spluttering like the car isn't getting enough fuel had...

Only had the car for about 3 weeks now. But seem to have a problem with it splutting and cutting out that seems to be getting worse. Initially, i noticed it spluttering slightly when pulling away or speeding up, then returning to normal, this only lasted a second or two, and only happened a...

I'm sure this has been answered before, but my searching skills seem poor today. Currently running the standards 16" wheels on my 182, and as i want to replace the crappy tyres that are on it, i'm thinking about switching to some 15" wheels at the same time. Cheaper tyres making up some of the...

Bought a 182 this weekend and I need to replace the front and rear disc and pads. I know the standard setup is already pretty good when fresh, but I was hoping to improve the stopping power a little. Car will be used for driving to work in mainly, but there are some fun roads to throw it...

I'm currently running 15" F1's with 20mm spacers, Eibach Prolines and camber bolts set to max (believed to be about 1 degrees but actual is unknown). The 16" TD Pro Race 1.2's i've bought are ET35, am i likely to have issues with rubbing? I'm going to be running 205/45 tyres. It's only 8mm...

Looking to get some locking wheel nuts for use with the kTec Stud conversion. They need to be open ended as the studs are pretty long, with a suitable key to accommodate the stud length (68mm). Can only find them on eBay, and i'm just a bit apprehensive about buying such items from non known...

Sell this due to getting the Clio. Probably not get any interest on here, but worth a try. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200928817963 Cars located in Nottingham

Need to get 182 AC sorted, it's just not blowing out very cold. Anyone got any recommendations for getting this done in Notts, preferrable central Notts. I've found AC/DC Air Conditioning (http://acdcairconditioning.co.uk/) which is a mobile service for £55, anyone used these before? Price sound...

Brought the car at the beginning of march, fancied a 172/182 for the past few years, but things like insurance cost and house buying have got in the way. So when i gave the company insignia i'd been driving for the past few months back to work and my old punto failed its mot, I started looking...

Only had the car for a few weeks, but noticed this whistling noise a couple weeks ago. Recorded on the way home from work tonight: <iframe width="640" height="480" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/LuUPbRGL8XE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> I've had a bit of work done to the car...

I know there are several threads on this, so i apologise for yet another, but i have searched quite a bit, and i'm still not 100% sure what oil to get for my 182. I know that the recommend oil from Renault is Elf Tranself NFJ 75W-80, which is a GL 4+. I also know that a lot of people also use...

I need to sort a phone mount out for my Note 2 to go in the 182. I'd prefer something that i can mount to the centre console so that the phone is just above the vents. Don't really like using window suction mounts, but also don't want to put holes in the dash either. On my last car i screwed the...

I just brought a 2004 182, and it's still got the original headunit, CD changer and speakers. So i'm looking to upgrade and need a little advise, as i've never brought or installed any ICE before. I'm looking at getting a Pioneer DEH-4500BT headunit as i need Bluetooth, USB charging and front...

Hopefully picking up a 182 today, and its going to need new disc and pads before too much longer. I've got no intention of tracking the car in the immediate future, so just looking for a good disc and pad combination for road use. It will be my only car so used for commuting to work in, motorway...
