fitted new cambelt kit, dephaser, aux belt kit, water pump, oil & filter, spark plugs & new coolant. the cambelt was all timed up with the genuine renault tools and runs better that what it did before i did the cambelt. it pulls like crazy in 2nd to 3rd compared to what it used to and feels like...
i did all the above and everything is great!!!! thanks, it feels like it's got some more power than before, from 2nd to 3rd at the redline just feels loads quicker
thanks again!
The dephaser doesn't need to key on to the engine at all does it? I'm geussing it's just fit it and make sure it is sat correctly with how the cambelt sits on it? Does anyone know the torque the dephaser bolt needs to be too?
thanks!
thanks for all the info guys! i will be continuing where i left off tomorrow morning and will hopefully have it all up and running again by tomorrow night.
i will check the above and will make sure everything is correct before re-assembly.
thanks
ok thanks, i'll just have to put up with it how it is then! haha, i am not looking forward to the aux belt, tensioners and waterpump change now.
i was following the guide that someone put on here a while ago but i have got a proper renault guide now and will be using that to finish the job off...
so far i have just the top engine mount off it moves around a fair bit with it off but i need the whole engine moving more towards the gearbox side to give me more room, it's not essential but it would be much easier to work on.
i'll take the dogbone of wednesday and see if that makes any...
cool if you can find it that would be excellent!!!!
is there anyways of making more room at the side of the engine (cambelt side)? at the minute it is extremely tight and i am going to be doing the waterpump and aux belt kit.
thanks
Brilliant thanks, i managed to get the pin in properly after pushing down on my ratchet with my foot and pushing the pin in with my hand, lockked dead on TDC now. i can't do anything until wednesday now though but i hope i get it fin ished by then!
where did you get that manual from chris?
i...
Anyone got any ideas? I can get the horse shoe tool to lock with the piston at TDC, but i just can't get the TDC pin to go in all the way and lock the crank.
Hi guys, i am in the middle of doing my cambelt on my 182 and i'm struggling on locking the crank with the TDC pin. I have taken the torx bolt out of the front of the engine block next to the gearbox and put the TDC pin in. I have a screw driver on cylinder 1 (closest to the gearbox) and it is...

it's like an exhaust of an e46 BMW M3, i don't think it suits the car at all though, 1 exhaust pipe for each cylinder!
evo's are lovely, my dad managed to bin his 10/X (let's not go in to details), wouldn't have been a write off if all the airbags that went off didn't go off. i personally like the 5's, 6's, 8's and 10's. in a few years time i would love to think i could afford to own a black evo 8.
that evo in...
it's not me but i keep on spotting a BG 182 too around clifton green and also in acomb, i have seen the same one about 3 times now over the past month probably. maybe it is you i keep seeing murphy, haha
put the back seats down and they fit fine. don't know how well they will fit with tyres on too. i bought some 182 alloys and they fit great with the seats down
thanks
Re: My BG 182 Clio daily driver
thanks, sadly it is not in as great condition now, afew stone chips here and there because of a rubbish road surface i have to keep driving on almost everyday. i'll be doing all the work myself, i'm a full time mechanic so it shouldn't be too hard *hopefully*...
hi guys, my names Adam and this thread is for my black gold clio 182. the main reason i'm making it is just to keep a log off all the work i'm doing to her and it is always handy to have one of these threads if i ever came to selling them car (which won't be anytime soon). as it is at the minute...
