I know my numbers from here: http://www.powerflex.co.uk/products/Clio+II+%28inc+172+%26+182%29-426/1.html anyway, if you order from let's say k-tec and specify what 1*2 you have they will send the correct items

38 is ok if don't lower the car too much. and even lowered you can always grind the bumper bracket and get rid of eventual rubbing

of course it's ok, this is the standard size for 182's ;)

yeah if you have powerflex you should check and then weld the sleeves if not much damage taken

I think he bought the citroen ones. video of these is in the first post

yes they are the same.

the wishbone was ok, it was just the bush sleeve that came out. it needs to be welded to the wishbone to prevent that

I posted a link in the first post, there you can see the difference between OE and these

it's just one of those things who makes you enjoy the car like.... painted calipers? flat wipers? a carbon splitter? there are tons of little things and many of them have no practical use but still people do them. I guess it's human nature ;) and yeah I'm excited about fitting them

why bother? the citroen ones will fit perfectly in 2 mins, one minute if you're good :D

yes it isn't pretty at all, the outer sleeve came out of the arm and was rubbing on the mounting brackets, that's where the squeak was from (metal on metal)

thx ;)

they are un-adjustable as I've seen but that's ok for me ;)

at least ranault could sell the thumb grips separately and we'll deal with the melting stuff (clean it, re-trim, etc) mine's also f***ed up but that's no surprise is it

I didn't wanted to open yet another topic as I have a similar problem: the car missfires and starts badly ONLY whel alot of moisture outside (fog, rain-generally late autumn and early spring months) every time the cure was to take off the leads from the coil pack and wipe them off, then...

well then check for this: this happened to mine. you have to weld the outer sleeve to the lower arm. mine began to squeak just like the OP said but initially I thought that's normal (heard that powerflex bushes do that..)

brr that brings back nasty memories.... hope you get it sorted :( mine went through this and I fixed it, cost me about 4k but the legislation and insurance policies are different around here

I would go for something light, it's gonna do good to the 1.2 engine

try some wd40 or smth on all bushes and see if it helps. or if you have the time take off the lower arms and get a closer look to their bushes as I'm sure that's where the noise is coming from

would be good to study a already matched inlet and see how much material and where from has been removed. but matching to the head and being careful about doing it you shouldn't go wrong

nope the 182 has 25 mm at the front (as you said) and the 172 has 23mm. I know this since I ordered a set of powerflex arb bushes to mine-it also says on the powerflex site

do you have by any chance the powerflex lower wishbone bushes?

match them to the head openings. as for the paint, I used hammerite on mine, no problem so far (2 months since)

you're welcome ;)

ET 45 both cup and non cup wheels

do you have an induction kit or the std airbox? maybe you messed with the CAF and forgot about it

0,5-1mm toe out on the front and it should be fine. I know trophy's use 1 mm out

oh, go with 205, the difference is small and you'll have the std size also

what car?..

if lowered only on springs you should be fine (no scrubbage on the arches)
