There have been a few people on here recently asking about the 182 alarm beeping problem (when locking the car the alarm beeps 2 or 3 times). Well, on the Renaultsport site forum, a Cobra technician has explained the reason for the problem and how to get it fix by your dealer. This is what he...
I may get Renault to order a new one - presumably it would be covered under warrenty?
Id rather fit it myself though - cos they would probably end up scratching the bumper trying to change it.
It will be interesting to see how they fix that. Im going to book mine in to have that fixed as it is really getting on my nerves now.
Did you tell them about it when you booked the car in or were they already aware of how to fix the problem? From what Ive heard some dealers dont know about...
Lee - when you say your having the 4 beeps on the alarm done, do you mean the 3 beeps that sound if you lock the car to quickly after shutting the doors, or is this something else?
I must get some touch up paint too.
Does anyone know whether they will do one for the anthracite wheels? Might be useful having one of them as stone chips show up on the dark wheels.
Ive got to jack up my 182 later to take wheel off - but have read some post on here about the jack bending the chassis and all sorts of other problems.
What is the best way to jack the car up without causing problems. Should I use a trolly jack instead?
Does anyone know whether it is possible to get another set of Renault alarm stickers - the ones that are stuck on the drivers & passengers windows when car is new?
If so, is it something that is ordered from Renault parts or elsewhere?
The bulbs are orange - and Philips dont make silvervision W5W bulbs - they only do bluevision.
Do you know anyone who does silvervision side repeaters bulbs?
Does anyone know whether the 182 Arctic Blue touch-up paint is available? If so, where can I get it?
My dealer says they havent done one yet - but seeing as the car has been out since December 03, Id be surprised.
I went down to the dealer again and spoke to a different guy in the parts department - he just went out the back and got some for me. I must have had a real dumb guy last time I went.
The unfortunate thing is when I came to fit them, one broke!! :( They arnt very strong. So its back to the...
Hey, Coco - I said you would love it! ;)
I too though the exhaust sounded a bit tinny at first, but now after having it a week, it has got less. It just needs loosening up.
As for the colour, I also love the way it changes in different lights. Really pleased with that. :D
Now for some more...
When getting a car like this, its better to go the whole way and get the suspension and spoiler packs I think. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
