    Rear Discs and Pads

    As above, these cars have very little rear brake usage. Just stay with OEM (or whatever is cheapest tbh) as they contribute very little to the braking performance

    Heavy steering Clio 172 Cup

    This is another good point. On my old 182, I had 4 new tyres and then geo done and good lord it was night and day. I remember wondering what the hell they had done to make it so good! The new 182 is yet to be treated to such an experience...

    Heavy steering Clio 172 Cup

    When I used to run that set up, I think I used to ruin 34 psi in the front and 32 in the back to give it a little more stick in the corner. That being said, "best pressure" is the most subjective thing ever!!

    Will do. Unlikely to be using it for a little while as my detailing spot is occupied! The reviews all seem to be good tbh, even outside of the EZ circle jerk

    Not tried it yet. Well reviewed on the EZ fb page but there is a lot of ass kissing in the hope of free stuff on there. Value for money it cant be beaten. Yesterday when I looked a bottle of AF Iron Out was £13 ex del for 500ml. So its 5x better value in that example

    Just for the record lads and ladies: EZ had 5L of fallout for £25 delivered. Fill your boots.

    Heavy steering Clio 172 Cup

    One other thing that's just popped into my head is tyre pressure levels. My car always feels so different when the tyres are at the incorrect pressure. It feels unwilling to move direction almost. When the pressure is spot on, its mega darty. I know that's a wierd one but worth a shot!

    Heavy steering Clio 172 Cup

    No drama. My knowledge is basic too but I've had a good few fiddles with these cars by now. As far as I remember, you have to unscrew the lid and there will be a dipstick like thing on the end of the cap. That will indicate the level of the fluid. One thing to note: DO NOT get the liquid on your...

    Heavy steering Clio 172 Cup

    In my experience, if the power steering pump is on it's way out, it will let you know about it! They squeal! Unlikely to be that. As you've said though, worth checking the reservoir. Also, worth checking the power steering pressure switch as they're known for going. Can be a spot for leaking...

    Still cant get my head around this. How is it that 1 product is for making trim more black and the other is for a layer of last wax like protection?? Marketed differently but theyre the same product I can get my head around but I just dont get how its such a versatile liquid?

    M135i - Attempt Number 2

    Where are you finding these gems from? All the ones I have found are silly money for the spec or are total lease spec povo. £13k for that spec, from what ive been able to find, is amazing value.

    Now it's coming into winter and more road grime etc, I always mix a bit of APC in. Really helps the cleaning power

    That would make sense! In that case, any recommendations on a all in 1 tar and fallout? Or separate?

    Anyone used CarPro Elixr. It's a tar and fallout remover in one. Used 2/3 of a bottle on my dads car today and was quite disappointed by the results. So much tar that wasnt even touched. Anyone got any experience with it?

    I really rate the AG snowfoam. Great smell. Seems to do a really good job of loosening. Cant comment too much in cleaning power as I've never tested that specifically (and my car is never really that filthy)

    Decat fitting issues

    That's odd that its come with shorter bolts. The kit I ordered from RPD came with the same sized ones I had taken off. Initially I thought the same as you because the gasket was so stuck out. But once bolted down it was fine!

    Haven't come across that stuff. Report back with your findings!

    I've gotta say that the CarPro Reset is so good. @Sunglasses_Ron was bang on. Mad dilution and the clean it gives is mega. Not even expensive either

    First time owner of a 182! Curious on some things

    Welcome to the club! You are gonna love your new purchase as we all love ours. To answer your questions: The abs light and ESP light are very very very common on these. Do some googling and you'll find it might be a new abs sensor. Split abs ring or something else entirely. My previous one...
