Your right . In the UK when you make a purchase you get 12 months guarantee . Don't know about Belgium though ? But if you have something replaced under the warranty /guarantee and it only lasts say 10 months , you only get the remainder thats left on the original warranty i.e. 2 months ...

I've got silkolene pro s 5w-40 fully synth in mine at the moment . From http://www.opieoils.co.uk/performance_lubricants/silkolene.aspx There was a special offer on a few weeks ago . Something like 5litres for £36 delivered iirc .

^^^ You thought right . Cup suspension - lower and stiffer plus anthracite wheels Cup spoiler pack - front splitter and cup rear spoiler .

Go for the eagles mate . The t1-r's are no better than the s's especially in the wet . I had them on my old 172 and hated them .

I guess somewhere there must be some small print which allows Renault to change the terms and conditions of the warranty , otherwise i would think that they should have to honour the warranty , what it covers etc .... at the time the extended warranty was taken out . Do you keep soiling...

Hammerite smooth is fine on your calipers . Just make sure you give them a very good clean first , get rid of all the brake dust , any grease etc .....

Have you checked out autotrader ? I don't know where your based so there might be some near to you . If you buy from a dealer , especially a Renault dealership expect to pay over the odds . If you buy private you stand a good chance of knocking them down a bit and getting it lower than the...

Cos the 172 cups where stripped of things which lessened the weight , aircon , xenon headlights etc.... so the ones with all the toys are called full fat ;)

Most 182's FF's come with cup suspension , front splitter and rear spoiler , anthracite alloys ( cup pack) as most people seemed to take this option .

Had a 172 FF , great car , have a 182 FF now with cup packs which imo handles slightly better . Both good cars but for £10,000 your looking at a full fat 182 . Both FF 172 and 182's have the toys .

They are held on with clips , just get your fingers under the edge and they pull off .

I used stone grey to refurb my spare alloy , its 99% ok as a match , but i think that maybe rover gunmetal grey might be a better match .

Page 1. ;) I've tried toyo t1-r's and t1-s's both shite in the wet ok in the dry . Exaltos in the wet and dry for me .

Plugs on a 172 are supposed to be good for 72k , i think thats a bit optimistic , mine lasted about 30k . You can buy the cover that covers the oil filler cap separate from Renault .The clips do tend to break off easily , best thing to do whenchanging your oil or if somebody else is going to...

Yes it will fit ,182 is the same engine as 172 mk2

Can anyone reccomend a good cordless digital phone with answering machine please ? The ones we have at the moment are shite . 2 to 3 handsets only , price and where from ? Much appreciated for any help .

Thats what i always do . New to the back old ones to the front . You should always have your best tyres on the back . Read this article : http://www.pirelli.co.uk/en_GB/tyres/car_suv/utility_services/tech/tech4_gb.jhtml

Like edde says . Get an aerosol mixed up and spray it in the lid , go to a local motor factors where they mix paint , they'll do a tin of about usually between 400 - 600ml for the same price as the renault touch up . Don't bother with the lacquer you get in the touch up kits personally . A...

Nice pics there mate . Love the badges in anthracite :) Did you mask off the 16V bit ? Also did you lacquer over the badges ?

Yep. I had a powerflow catback on my old 172 from the guys in Burnley . Top job , only took 90mins , they let me choose the sound of the backbox also .

Like Rich says . Never bother with the lacquer , its actually cheaper to get the paint made up at a local car motor factors . I had some 600ml aerosols made up for the same price as the renault touch up paint and the colour match is exact . Just spray some in the lid , use a cocktail stick ...

No problem mate . Sorry i couldn't help anymore , but i can see the problem , they don't usually have that on the pad mounting bracket stopping the retaining clip from sliding out .

Do you have that on both sides of the car ? Mine doesn't on the 182 and didn't on the 172 . Can you tap the retaining clip inwards then to give you enough clearance to remove the pads ?

^^^^ Give me a minute mate . I have a spare set of calipers in my shed , i'll go and have a quick look .

It'll be a combination of brake dust, dirt , maybe a little bit of rust . Get a flat bladed screwdriver or a punch and tap it out with a hammer . There's nothing else to stop it sliding outwards away from the car . Once its out clean the retaining bar with some sandpaper also clean the surface...

I don't know what guide you guys are using , but you don't need to remove any part of the caliper to change the rear pads . All you need to do is remove the spring clip , tap out the pad retaining plate outwards ( small angled piece of metal ) then pull the old pads out using some pliers ...
