The one in your post is correct. Here’s a pic of some spares I have to compare numbers.
Genuine part number and OEM numbers are as follows:
RH Front Caliper - P/N (7701205833) - OEM Mfr. TRW-Lucas P/N (BHW242)
LH Front Caliper - P/N (7701205832) - OEM Mfr. TRW-Lucas P/N (BHW241
I'd have loved one of these when they were new as they drive so differently when they're factory, from one that's been messed around with.
My insurance quote has just come back for my 182 with e-sure and it's £12.12 per month. My leased Sportage is £900 p.a. I can't get my head around it.
Yeah, she's wrong about the Clio 182s being labelled as Phase 3, and getting confused with the global production timeline of all Clio models (different countries). The OP was clearly asking about UK Sports production models. My understanding of the Clio production by MY.
First Generation (Clio...
I love this and hate it at the same time. I love it because you can see it looks genuine (I always look for that little bit of sponge under the bonnet near the NS front wing – very few have this). I hate it because I’d want to remove all the surface rust and make it look new – which costs more...
Yeah they’re impossible to get out without damaging them and years of corrosion and heat cycles don’t help. Just get a slightly larger drill bit and run it through.
Assuming they’re the correct ones, they’re usually tight. I always run a slightly larger drill bit through mine in case I need to remove them in the future.
Is it just for track?
Why not just get Group N timing, and have Chris at EFi remap it? It’ll transform how the car performs without breaking the bank.
Fundamentals first: suspension, geo, tyres, brakes, then do the above. I've seen too many Clios around circuits with different cam setups and...
I know what you mean. My grandkids love my Racing Blue 182. They call it "Little Bluey". They all sit in it and pretend to go to the beach and McDonald's lol
Yeah, we have the Renault parts system here and couldn't pin it down to a CUP model. It mentioned motors or something in French, but it's likely to fit. We're not 100% sure.
I wouldn't have a problem refurbing my wishbones as the paint on them is awful anyway, but they're not going to go down...
Mine is 8200276162 but it's possible 8200054197 fits as well as it's for Clio's from 01-08. Not entirely sure what the differences are, but every day is a school day with these cars. Electric?
You can still purchase the near-side wishbone (part number 8200257956) for £150, plus postage.
As for the offside wishbone, which is no longer available, it’s worth working out the cost of refurbishing an existing part by replacing the bushes and ball joints, and adding a coat of paint.
Fag...
They’re cast steel so retained their natural finish. Most steering knuckles are like that. I was going to keep mine natural after blasting them and just add high heat clear coat for protection, but decided to go Black in the end. Doing this meant i could give them lots of coats of Hydrate-80 to...
