I'm not sure if these are what he has but wants some in better condition?

Maybe this guy can help ? https://cliosport.net/threads/182-exhaust-heat-shields.832853/

It doesn't take much of a drop in the level to get the warning light, that's why you see it happen if the brake pads are worn down really low. Glad you got it sorted :)

Yeah on the back of the sill just to make sure they gripped tight.

I used 4.8mm x 14mm pop rivet with a 16mm flange and they were spot on. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Extra-Large-Flange-Head-Pop-Rivets-4-8mm-Aluminium-Open-Steel-Blind-Rivets/251068854813?_trkparms=ispr%3D1&hash=item3a74deb21d:m:mIyAkEe6dfgVFFbKKI9foJA I put 4.8mm washers on the other side of the...

Like @JamesBryan says it's usually caused by low brake fluid. It can happen if your brake pads are very worn.

Nice one. I must be going blind. I didn't see the belt only the kits.

The alternator was replaced last August after I'd garaged the car for the previous 7 months and I had problems charging the battery. It was done locally at small garage.

I'll try and have a look tomorrow. I'm hoping it's just something as simple as needing a new bolt. Whereabouts can you get the belt on its own? I can't find it on RPDs website.

I've ordered 5 litres of coolant , I don't know how much it lost when it blew it out. The aux belt kit is only 2 months old so I'm hoping it's just a new belt needed. Can you buy just the belt on its own? On RPD they only seem to sell it as a kit. I'm hoping it's just the alternator coming loose...

I don't know if it's seized. I've tried phoning Birchdown but it's answer machine only with this covid malarkey. I've left then them a message so hopefully they'll get back to me soon. The only problem is they're 90 miles away from where I live.

OEM springs aren't available anymore to buy new.

Home now. I can't pull the belt off as it's jammed between the alternator pulley and the bodywork. It's slightly damaged so will need replacing. What I have noticed is that the alternator itself is loose and moving about. I'm guessing that's enough to throw the aux belt off?

I will do. Cheers mate.

Card been running sweet since the aux belt was done in March. f**k knows what's caused this. The aux belt from what I can see looks ok, just come off the pulleys and stuck.

Waiting the get trailered now.

When i lifted the bonnet it had blown the coolant, probably why the temp gauge shot up. Breakdown guy just arrived now. I phoned Birchdown but got no answer.

Just had my aux belt come off driving down the M6. Temp gauge went to the top, stop and battery light came on. I managed to drive it slowly to the next service station and waiting for breakdown recovery. I had a new aux belt kit fitted at Birchdown at the beginning of March this year, only done...

As said above. Andy and Steve @Birchdown . Top lads. (y) http://www.birchdown.com/

182 cup packed springs are definitely red and white dots. And yeah you're right 172 cup springs are yellow and white.

They look like some aftermarket ECP type of springs to me. Genuine cup springs have red and white dots on them. 172 cup, 182 cup and 182 cup packed all had the same springs.

Don't forget to use the discount code weekend37 and it's only £157 or maybe the next code will be even more off if you hang on.

The Platinum bonnet from Eurocarparts is supposed to be good quality. https://www.eurocarparts.com/p/platinum-plus-bonnet-801745175

Strangely my first 172 had a lock on both doors. Also both electric windows could be operated with one press of the button for up and down from the drivers side.But like @YorkshireKyle says , normally they're only on the passenger door.

First one didn't sell for £2450 second one didn't sell for £1600. Both now back on ebay, starting price £3000 each o_O Is this guy a dreamer or what ?

36 bids on the first one and 33 bids on the second o_O worst examples I've ever seen.

I just ordered mine from a local Skoda garage and picked it up.

If it was me. I wouldn't bother taking it to Renault, just spend £77 and get a new aux belt kit fitted including tensioner. No doubt they'll find something untoward and you'll end up paying £100 for the pleasure. I've had 3 new tensioners I'm the last 5 years , they're renowned for breaking.
