Saw the yellow 182 with the cup pack .. nice!

AGREED! I think it has something to do with the width of the tyres and lightness of the PS. I checked my tyre presures the other day and now they are 33 front 31 back ... feels a lot lot lot better!!

Went into my dealer for some warranty work and looked at the prices of servicing. The guy said that price was for ANY clio and it was 144 for first 12k service ??

ok, thanks for the advise ben

think im goin to do mine this wkend. the oil is still like new after 3000 miles, checked it every couple of weeks or so, still on full on dip stick. this seems a bit odd after reading some posts on here, having to top up etc... BenR - what mineral would you recommend, i was just going to...

It doesnt bother me a great deal, but the bottom line is it cant be right! so there must be something faulty somewhere surely.

Any techy guys on here have any ideas what this is down to or worked on similar problem? I know there are quite a lot of motors on here 172/182 that have the same problem when cold (jerky and sluggish). On mine if you try to hold the revs at say 3k rpm you can feel the car holding back, then...

does it idle ok when cold? mine idles about 1200 when cold but seems smooth and ok, then drops to about 700 ish when warm

mine to, from 250 miles (dont recall it doing it before that). done 3000 now and still the same.

I have been looking to. Think all the panel filters for the 172 mk2 fit the 182. Pipercross - £38 ITG - £45 Going of the info I have received you will probably see no difference what so ever in performance / sound. The only thing is you might save some money on services as they wont have to...

Im sure it wont be long before a 225 is smashed up + written off, engine dropped in a clio, chipped etc.. that would be a f**kin beast!!

look at the worst case scenario .. what if you run someone over .. im sure the insurance company would do everything they could to get out of a payout meaning your up s**t creek until your about 85

How do BMW owners get on? You have about 6,000 different options, everything a bloody option on those things (anyone seen the mini price list - what a p**s take). You would be on phone to insurance company for a whole day.

If you had said 10000 miles it would have been roughly 685. Think it works out about 15 quid for every 1000 miles.

Looked at the viper and bmc but just a bit concerned about a power drop, especially when its hot (for the whole 1 week in a year). Is this likely to happen when its a hot day? with just hot air for it to suck in?
