    182 - Increased Engine Capacity to 2.1 / 2.2

    You could stick in a longer ratio box/ longer last gear/final drive though and help lower rpm at crusiing motorway speed though couldn't you? I think Oms idea isn't for power its for other reasons. Say taking it to 2.1 since its only an over bore you'd only need a new pistons wouldn't you...

    Coilovers

    172 and none Rs coilovers are difference so you'd have to sell the 1.2's on and buy the 172 ones you could doge them but I wouldn't risk it as you'd need new springs anyway. Fk's drop about that low but you'll need to get cutting at the arch liner etc to make it work. If you want to save...

    When should I change the Fuel Filter for my 172 MK2??

    Fuel filter ever 150k as mentioned here http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=107873 You don't need to change the senor from what I remeber. Some early Mk2's had external fuel filters though just to be difficlt.

    So what next for my 182??

    Individual throttle bosies which i assume is being talked about are expensive you won't see chnage from £3k at best expect to end up paying near £4k with servicing etc.

    New disks

    Disk arn't perfectly even thats whty pads were to the disk they won't have worn much though hence why I did say "You don't need though." No avtar though for a few reasons 1) Easy to spot my posts when looking throught threads its the only one without a avtar usually. 2) Cannot find a...

    Binding front brake

    You have to do some real hard even the race teams don't break them to often. Its most likly the slider between the cliper and caliper holder which are stuck.

    New disks

    You'll damage the compound of the pad. I'm sure BenR has a more technical reason but the companies recomend bedding in with hard braking.

    New disks

    For the best performance you should use new pads with new disks. You don't need though.

    Alloys/lowering on insurance

    Depends some don't charge some won't insure and some charge a fortune. I'd say probaly £150 for both.

    New disks

    You should be chnaging the pads as well. There should be a bedding in insstruction but I always bed mine in by hard braking from 60 to 10 mph or so a few times to burn of the protective coverings.

    think my radiators dead :(

    You need to find out whats wrong it might just be the pipe works cracked which isn't to expensive a new raditaros quite expensive a second hand one is a better idea for the money.

    Took my car to the local garage

    Its quite possible its the suspension arm so a new arm is the best option as trying to chnage the bushes can be more expensive. A new arms not mauch though under £50.

    Binding front brake

    You could fix it yourself a new set of pads are £40 then just clean up and grease the brakes where needed and your off. Its a Renault warently issue though.

    I'd go for a proper throttle cable all the time.

    Petrol Prices

    Its a bit stupid I paid 99.9 on Monday for a full tank and even with the mpg I get its still a lot I'm paying per month.

    So what next for my 182??

    Intake matching is the most important IMO. Your best getting all the tunning bits at once as a remap only needs to be done once then.
  22. E

    Binding front brake

    Thats a warently issue brakes shouldn't and they don't fail if they did its a poor design/manurfacture and so covered under the suitability of product act ie it has to be fit for purpose which in this case it isn't. Contact Renault Uk yourself.

    Locking my car with the remote ?

    Another common problem is when you lock the car the alarm beeps 2 or 3 times. Reason: The alarm system has received a signal from the vehicle ECU that the ignition is 'on' causing the alarm to beep. This signal is only received by the alarm for 3 to 4 seconds, after this time has elapsed the...

    F4R engine build article

    Would that include the cams head work etc and fitment of the engine to car and mapping? Would using a used engine help in any way I think Nick Hill was on saying rebuilt used engines make more power than new rebuilt ones as they've been worn in a bit?

You could use the copper one though its no problem realy. plus there cheaper 50p or so. Its not a serious problem my...
