Strange when i enter 543A09780R into Autodoc I only get one option. That part number is the kit, so it includes everything. They're showing at RPD so as has been suggested get one from them or your local dealer - https://renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/parts/steering-suspension/543a09780r/

This! My exhaust used to resonate badly under heavy acceleration. Couldn't get to the bottom of it so just lived with it. Then I bought some new exhaust hanger brackets - the ones attached to the boot floor - and some mounts and low and behold it sorted it. The hangers were so minging they...

Damn, they were an excellent company to deal with. Justin supplied me with many a set of TD Pro Race. So many good suppliers are closing down.

Yes, but not that example.

Was it an old or refurbished driveshaft then Kyle?

I noticed that just after I put an order in for some AST 5100. They told me 3 weeks but after not hearing anything for 5 I got onto them. They came good so all was well in the end. They've been around a long time. Such a shame.

My BG was awful but my RB not as bad, but still does it

Not a lot happening as I’ve been out of the country for 3 weeks, but back now and eager to crack in with the next phase. In my last update I mentioned I’d lost my locking wheel nut key. Thanks to @JamesBryan sending me a link, I was able to track down a replacement. It worked out at £45 plus...

There’s a discussion going on right now on this subject. You might want to chime in https://cliosport.net/threads/quietest-exhaust-for-182.843083/#post-12443211

Not a PMS lol. My Scorpion was very quiet and not drony

If it's not leaking when it stands still, then that's pretty much confirmed that it is the selector seal.

Gutted for you Ben. This was one of the more famous RBs and a testament to how reliable the engines are with the proper ownership. I was looking forward to buying that on eBay for 99p lol Such a shame it got killed by a random Doris :(

Hi and welcome. Generally gearbox leaks (bright oil) are from the selector seal. If you’ve never wiped it and that’s as much as you’ve got then I’d say that’s not too bad. Of course the wind blows the oil about so never easy to pin point exactly where it’s coming from. Given where the darker...

Maybe get 30 mm 😂 I buy that many nuts and bolts 🫤

If the wheels were new, could it be they came loose? I had to use a dremel to rough up the fascia’s where the nut touches the surface of the wheel. Heard plenty of horror stories of wheels coming loose on trackdays or when wheels have been refurbed.

If you mean number 3 in this diagram, they’re an M6 flanged bolt. The last lot I bought where from Westfield fasteners. Flange Bolt Hex Head (Unserrated) M6 x 25mm in Bright Zinc 8.8. I think Halfords sell something similar.

Yeah genuine ones are pressed into the disc. There might be some 3rd party variants like that as well but I’ve only ever fitted genuine on the rear. Ah my bad reference the coilovers. I wasn’t aware you had BC’s installed. Apologies 😊

Assuming the rear discs are genuine Renault, the bearings are built in. With regards to handling/ride/setup, Renault Sport tuned them so they were Road compliant and progressive when pushing on. As soon as you start messing with springs, spacers, bushes etc you’re naturally going to be...

Lovely job

Just don’t brake too hard and you’ll be fine

I paid £130 off the top of my head. Prices may have gone up though.

If they’re half the price of usual retail then probably too good to be true, and dangerous. Sabelt make the 330mm RenaultSport wheels without the logos. I bought mine a few years back now, so prices might have shot up. If you’re not fussy those are the same wheels and a lot less than the one...

Hmm I’ll have to have a good look at mine. Not back in UK for another week, so hopefully you’re sorted by then.

There are 2 pumps, one for headlamp washer jets, one for wipers. The screen washer jet pump is the larger of the two, so I’m wondering if the previous pump (the shorter one), has always been wrong. (4) being the shorter washer jet, (17) being the windscreen washer. I replaced both pumps on...

My 182 BG was awful when cold. It bounced all over the place until it warmed up. Had it at EFi to get it mapped plus the cold map sorted but it was always the same. I Threw the parts cannon at it, replaced seals, gaskets but it was always the same from cold. Once up to temperature it was great...

Supportive, that’s the word I was looking for 👍

I was looking at trendlines for my 182. I even enquired about the above seats, but had heard they’re not the most comfortable. And I didn’t fancy hitting circuits with a 2 piece seat. I Went for new Pole Positions in the end and although I can feel every bump in the road now, the seats are so...

Added, if I was getting some engine work done, I’d stick a new oil pump in, if anything. Just my 2 cents.
