C the pipe coming off the top of the rad? Follow that and it goes to the stat housing. Youl see 3 10mm bolts holding the stat housing to the engine.

Cheapo stuff from bullseye and change it often is my take on things oil wise. 5 litres of 5w40 fully synthetic

the halfords premium red stuff is supoposed to be ok anyway.

on mtorways i get a good 41 if i stay at around 65. On normal driving mpg is really poor even if i dont thrash it

The plugs used were the proper ngks. Danny I took it to a so called Renault specialist and they said diagnostics didn't show anything.

just thought id bump this thread, had it on the diagnostic and nothing. i shined up my tail pipes the other day and now they are black again after about 100 miles. is this normal? Plugs, thermostat, coolant sensor and rad are all brand new so i dont think its a cooling system issue or bad...

8mm square

I had this, was the thermostat. 14 quid from gsf. Sorted

Ain't gona work mate

ive been into high end audio for years and never bothered with rear speakers, it just ruins the sound stage to be honest. A good set of amped components up front and a sub is the perfect combination in a clio with it been such a small car.

ive seen that nocking about in rotherham

yeh i tried that and it stopped, any ideas what causes it? my old clio never did it

Anybody else get this in a 182? Im fairly sure its something to do with the way air is hitting the car around the wing mirror or something? Only does it when i get above 30mph, its not engine related as it still does it if i take it out of gear.

what he said, your headunit will not be anywhere near 45w rms. Rear speakers are pointless in a small car and just mess up the soundstage.

what the hell, why would somebody take out the stat completely. it running ok now then? cant you just take the housing off and unscrew it with some pliars?

to the sound so it made it feel faster lol. i had a 1.2, theres no point even bothering they slow as hell and always will be, its a 1.2 lol.

what car? what exhaust? my ktek on my 182 does it but only on cold.

do you get the big kick at 5k? if its been doine with an rs tuner youl loose this and have a more even power curve.

my gsf 1 was idential to the one which came out of my housing and seems to fit fine?

Ok fair enuf. What could be the possible causes thought? All I can think now are leads and coil pack.

Let thi off then. Ok mate no Worries, got any questions just gis a shout, I did mine and pretty much my whole cooling system the other day.

10000 posts and you've never had your car in bits, come on son! Joking. See the hose which comes out of the radiator at the top? A really short one which goes to the engine? Well you need to remove this pipe from the engine end. Then youl be faced with 3 10mm bolts in a triangle shape. also...

Just say you want a thermostat and give them your reg number, that's all I did and they had it in stock. Double check the new seal is in the box as they sold me a new seal which wasn't needed as it was in the box

As part of my recent service as I've only just got the car so wanted to give everything a good change as I'm not too sure the previous owner treat her right after finding rad weld in my water. Changed, thermostat, coolant, coolant temp sensor, plugs with new ngks, oil, radiaor as it had a...

Mine was 12 from gsf

has the center section to the cat not got an adjustable length joint like on my ktec?

some guy on here was doing amazing re trims on an exchange basis which included new leather and thumb grips, think it was about 150 notes

i got one from bullseye for 120. gsf wanted 150 quid which is more than renault.

They expensive? I'll see if bullseye have got any. Will I loose loads of coolant by taking that pipe off the thermostat?

go for the renault one, do the before cat one. As far as im aware the after cat lambda does nothing other than make sure the cat and everything which keeps emmissions down is working, it doesnt have any influence on the running of the engine, hence why people with decats dont have any issues...
