It doesn't contain petroleum at all . It's alcohol based . I've had it splash on my paintwork loads of times with no adverse effects . I'm not sure i'd try and seal the car with it though just in case . I apply it if know it's going to freeze . When it's freshly applied more often that not...

If it's got a poor finish then get it sorted . It's a no brainer imo .

Could be a wire broken from the temp sensor in the wing mirror giving a dodgy reading . Do you fold your wing mirrors in alot when you park up ? Not sure why it would only blow warm air out of the heater when it's set to max tbh . I didn't think they were related as the outside temp sensor is...

You don't necessarily need a foam lance , there's a cheaper alternative ;) Save yourself 50 quid and spend it on some decent shampoo ;)

Since when was South Glamorgan in Italy ?? ;)

I can activate / deactivate mine without the key in the ignition .

Scrapyard .

Summat not right there . Alot nicer than the 197 imo :quiet:

Mine did it last winter quite a bit but has been fine up until the recent cold weather and has done it a few times in the last couple of weeks , everything resets to zero on the trip comp . I'm guessing the battery is losing just enough charge to cause a problem . Batteries don't like cold...

Pm sent Andy .

^^^ No it won't say anywhere it's an import and no you don't have to inform the insurance company as it's not a grey import like the cheap Jap cars we see over here . It's basically the same car produced in the same factory as the so called " UK cars " without the afore mentioned alarm , locking...

If your wheels buckled then i'd suspect some sort of damage from an earlier impact . The mechanic , as you call him should really have told you it's not safe to drive imo not recommend you " look into it " :eek: If i was you , first i'd visually check the wheel myself for any signs of damage...

As said .Under the fuel rail guard :

Your spot on there about the warranty starting from the date the car was built . But the part about your MOT being due when Renault said it was is wrong . The first MOT on a car is due on the 3rd anniversary from when the car was FIRST registered in the UK if the car is new when purchased over...

Do a search . This topic crops up all the time . Some less well informed people will tell you it affects the resale value , which is b****cks . There are lots of RS Clios around that are imports usually sold from places like Motorpoint . They are the same car , produced in the same factory ...

Mine was registered on the 2nd of February 2006 . There was litterally only a handful of unregistered 182's left in the UK when i bought it . I was in 2 minds as whether to just garage it until March and get an 06 plate lol . They stopped manufacturing them in October 2005 .

I've used meths to degrease new brake discs in the past . As to bleeding your brakes . If they haven't been done for a while i'd bleed them whilst your changing the pads and discs just so you know you've done a thorough job , it's not essential but worth doing imo .

It's the hose that's rated 150 bar and it will fit your pressure washer .

As said previously loose all of the stickers . I could understand if you were 17 years old but your not :quiet: As for the wheels they a look a fuckin mess yellow , go for something dark like a gunmetal or black .

You should have stuck to the Michelins . The Pirellis don't come close imo , they should be scrubbing in a bit by now maybe but don't expect the grip you had with the Michelins because it just won't happen .

Didn't i already say that ?? :quiet:

Weirdo !

At best your looking at someone like chipsaway , at worst respraying the door and blending it in the the rest of the car . Or you could have a go yourself and fill the scratch , wet sand then polish . Here's a guide on how to do it . http://www.guidetodetailing.com/articles.php?articleId=27

Always sounds a bit iffy when lacquer/ paint starts to peel . Sounds like a previous repair that's started to fail tbh . Paintwork warranty only lasts 3 years , its the anti corrosion warranty that is a lengthy one being 12 years . Even that is subject to conditions i.e. having the car "...

Same for me . I always average around 280 miles to a tank on my 182 , same as i did on my 172 . Some people figures in these mpg threads amaze me :eek: So your averaging over 400 miles to a full tank ??? I doubt that very much :quiet:

Like the man says pull it or use a very long thin screwdriver and carefully prise it out . Both methods have worked for me .

Sounds as good as any 182 exhaust i've heard imo . How much is down to the Simota or is it all exhaust we can hear ?
