    CLIP/RSTuner in B'mth/Poole (airbag diagnosis)

    Good idea matey. the squib for a 172 cup is the same as any clio so you could likely find one for £10 to replace it!

    Brake Cooling

    these were mine, lots of super glue, cut the fog supports out, 4" pipe

    Climate Control Gremlins

    I've never come accross this and it's a most odd problem. One of the regulator flaps must be blocking the flow. Is there any change when you press recirculation on the unit.

    Fitting recaros to 182

    I'm down in Devon occasionally so can programme out the lights using clip if you fit them and are near to lympstone.

    Severely underpowered DCi

    You can hear when it boosts up. Boost will generally be after 2k. Hissing noise. If it's not boosting properly you will be accelerating extremely slowly, revs won't build up quickly. My egr valve is sticky at the moment and stopping my boost building up properly, i'm below 2k and put my foot...

    Clio 1.2 UCH Fault / Questions

    Replace the ecu kit as above. ECU, UCH, key fob and decoder ring. Make sure the uch is the same level as yours e.g. if you have an n2 then get an n2!

    172 Cup Powersteering solutions

    the pump will be the same Ash. If the pipes are okay at the moment then I would change the pump and then have a look at the pipes when up and running again. Make sure no PS fluid has got on the cambelt. Correct on the pipe being different

    Rattle on 1.5 dci 51 plate

    fancy getting a video of it?

    can't believe I missed this!!

    Leaky sunroof - difficult/expensive to fix?

    yeah DIY. 10 bolts on the bottom of the sunroof with a 10mm ratchet spanner. Get some 3m blue tape to mask around the sunroof so you don't get sealant on the roof...

    Cheapest graphics card that does 3 monitors

    I really don't know a resolution but set up my dual screen at work the other day and used a splitter on the back of the graphics card. Maybe you could do something similar. The UI recognised there were 2 screens so it didn't just split the resolution and the screens were different sizes.

    Dirtiest car competition - 2014

    I pass these cars everyday and have never seen one looking fresh. They are parked on blackheath common and every residents car gets absolutely filthy being parked next to the road.

    What have you done to your car today ???

    fixed the anti roll bar bracket. Convinced myself it felt like a new car

    Oils

    Yeah I agree. Decent oil lasts a very long time. I used Nanodrive as well, change every 10k. Previously have used fuchs titan pro (or whatever it's called) 5w40 and I couldn't knock it. Ever since using asda oil in my first car and the majority of it coming out of the exhaust I've never used...

    Fitting recaros to 182

    Yeah. You can either program out the side airbags with clip or put resistors in the connector blocks like in one of the guides. Takes longer to wire in the pretensioners but the same resolution as the airbags if you choose not to plug them in

    panel filter advise. What to go for?

    I think we approach modifying cars in a different way

    panel filter advise. What to go for?

    but the gain is not a gain you would feel!

    182 exhaust (cat) replacement advice..

    Yes that is the right cat, yours has been sleeved to fit a cat back exhaust. Anyone with a welder can sleeve the cat. Just cut off the donut and weld the correct diameter pipe on. This was my sleeved cat, cost me £15 to get welded and a few quid for the pipe. You can probably cut that pipe...

    panel filter advise. What to go for?

    I wouldn't get any panel filter. The gain is so negligible you'd never notice it. Of course if the car has a MAF sensor then don't get an oiled filter e.g. k&n

    RS tuner - Ron 98 & pops + bangs?

    I though the car ran better with the pops and bangs map on but only used to put it on for a "feel good friday" It's bad for the exhaust valves so I wouldn't run it everyday. 98 ron map is fine. Believe I still have some calibrations knocking about somewhere.

    Severely underpowered DCi

    dci has a map sensor. Thats the one that clips onto the airbox. If the car runs better without it plugged in then that's the faulty part. When you replace it it will run better than with it unplugged. Clean the hard EGR/intake pipe whilst your at it as that will make it run better. Do you get...

    Graham's OCD ph2 DCi sport rep

    Rubbish update. Braking problem fixed, the outer ARB bracket had snapped off leaving this stub of what it once was. Fitted braided front lines which now means it's braided brakes all round. Other than that all is the same :smile: still clocking up the miles nicely. Will be going to the...

    Rattle on 1.5 dci 51 plate

    it could be the alternator pulley on the way out or one of the aircon pipes jangling on something

    Steering veers under braking

    SOLVED!!! I got fed up with the problem in the end, popped it in the garage (which I have never done) and due to the joy of having a ramp and being able to look from underneath they found the O/S arb bracket was missing. I've fitted the new one this morning and the car now brakes exactly as...

    Red immobilizer light steady on - UCH or wiring ?

    God knows what welding your throttle means. Look at the small relays in the engine bay as they oftern cause this problem if faulty, seen it three times now. A bad gearbox earth will also do the same thing

    wiring looms

    Only just seen this sorry. Everything is different I fortunately. The heater box in the car and under the scuttle panel. If you strip the loom it's pretty simple though so shouldn't be too much hassle. As the looms for both types are risky available I would buy which ever suits

    Most recommended braided lines ??

    it's just the line. No banjos or anything as you don't need them!! Need an 11mm spanner and 14mm if I remember correctly. Some way of bleeding the brakes as well of course. I had Matt Lewis on my old track car and they were good. I now have toms matt lewis ones on my current car and they are...

    Nice RB 182

    Clios are the easiest car to clock. You change the clocks, that's it, no programming required. Not to say this car has had it done though; bar the decals it looks really good and I considered putting in an offer until I wasn't allowed more cars :(
