I've never seen anyone use one of these before.
It looks like it'll be a pain in the arse to repair.
I'd just get a second hand regulator and fit that.
They do this. I had a 172 before this 182 and they both did it. It only clicks under the glove box for the drivers side window, not the passenger side.
Don't ask me why lol.
It's easy, just a couple of bolts holding in the regulator.
I found it easier if the window is halfway down so you can get your hand on the white clip that pushes through the hole in the bottom of the window.
I had something very similar a couple of months ago. It sounded like a metallic scraping noise. One of the brackets that bolts the regulator to the door had snapped off. There are 2 of them,one at the top and one at the bottom. You'll have to take the door card off and see if the regulator is loose.
I've had these on my 182 for a couple of years now and they've been spot on.

I had my 182s full service done a couple of months ago.I supplied everything. Both genuine Renault belt kits, water pump and gasket, thermostat and gasket,type D coolant, NGK spark plugs, Fuchs titan oil and oil filter.
With labour and no VAT I think I paid in total just less than £1100.
That...
Cheers 👍 The reason I ask is because I've got the same on my 182. At least now I know it's not the door rusting 😊
Are the seals bonded in or just pushed in? I've never taken one out before.
Is that rust under the rubber door seal the actual door rusting or the metal inside the door seal itself?
The demist function on your mirror might just be the heating element on mirror.
One of mine failed a few years ago. I got a pattern part mirror off ebay and it's been fine since.
There ya go, £24.79
I agree. The dust is minimal, they last for absolutely ages. They never seem to fade when hot and bite from cold is very good.

I changed the drivers side door check strap yesterday.
It definitely looks different to the original one, but it works. No more clunking of the door when I open and close it 😁👍
One thing I have noticed with this check strap is, the door opens way more than with the original.
I'd say most people order brake pads online.
So checking the backing plates would be impossible,unless you ask the seller for that information or better still send a picture of the backing plate 🤔
Have a look on Autodoc. It says that they ship to South Africa. They sell TRW pads for a 182.

I've been using trw pads on my 182 for years, just for fast road and I rate them highly.
I really don't get why people rave about Mintes M1144s. I didn't rate them for stopping and they squealed like a pig slowly down for traffic lights.
I have these exact cables fitted to my 182 and they're spot on 👍
It seems there quite a few variants for aftermarket handbrake cables and some are a got too long and some a bit too short.
I was on holiday at the time so couldn't check what I had at home.
These are genuine Renault 182 front and rear cup shocks that I bought from RPD a few weeks ago.
I couldn't see any indication that they're made by Monroe.
All 4 boxes say they're made in Spain.
Maybe Renault had more than one...
I guess that's probably the reason?
The part number for the front is different to the rear.
Front is 7700842857
Rear is 7700842859
If they work, they work and hopefully won't start clunking again after a few weeks 🤞
I've ordered them.
