    Genuine Mats (how much)

    Don't think you can get the proper RS mats anymore (the ones with the bridge between the rear mats).

    Decent Dipped Beam bulbs!

    Just fitted some nightbreakers to my full beam (already covered on dip :rasp: ;)) and they're pretty damn good. Deffo improvement over what was in there already which i'm assuming were standard bulbs.

    strange noise when letting off accelerator

    Mounts 99.9%, check them and change the shot one(s).

    What's this sensor?

    The oil pressure switch screws in the block by the oil filter, the level sender is the one that screws down into the sump. And the knock sensor will be the top one underneath the lower inlet.

    360 spin = brown trousers

    Had the same thing on my 1.6, F1s on the front some avons on the rear. Thought it was great fun in the wet until it caught me out and punted me into a curb/railings blew a side airbag and bent the wishbone, balljoint and subframe (slightly). Not a trick I will be repeating.

    What happens it you mate a clio with this...

    The 4wd system is crap iirc. Would be interesting if you could put a big power 1.8T engine in it with adapted quattro, could make quite a weapon. Well you'd never see it coming thats for sure.

    what does your 182 run like when cold

    Its to get it to pass the cold start emissions iirc.

    Oh how my taste has changed!!!!

    Wheels and exhaust aren't the best but the rest looks ok tbh.

    what does your 182 run like when cold

    As rough as a badgers arse after 10 pints of guinness and a chicken vindaloo. Its better some times than others though, getting better now the weather is warming up again.

    New engine cover bolts

    Not for me, they stick out too much imo. When I lost one of mine I found it in the undertray between the padding and the tray about 3 months later!

    What did the Renault garage do to my car?

    Seems very cheap but must've been a cambelt or they wouldn't have used the two core plugs.

    Clio 172 Gear Oil

    Nope, electrician but have been talking cars to pieces with my dad since I was about 7 or so and i've picked a few things up shall we say. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EP_additive That explains it in more detail. And your right the smell is sulphur.

    Monaco blue 172

    Nope, looks similar in pictures but is very different irl. Oddessey isn't pearlescent for a start iirc.

    Clio 172 Gear Oil

    An extreme pressure oil is one that will take being squashed and pulled apart without breaking down the molecular structure of it. IE in a gear oil its getting mashed between the gears and squeezed etc.

    Xenon Lights

    HID kit is a bad idea. If you want xenons, get the proper clusters. They won't be "legal" but at least they'll be safe.

    When doing CamBelt...

    You will probably need the tool to take the tension off the aux belt, as I don't think you'll get to the tensioner with anything else. I picked one up for a tenner. http://www.lasertools.co.uk/item.aspx?item=1155&cat=309

    My cars first little mod's!

    I've got some ultra white ones from ultraleds and they're a pretty good match imo. Depends how much of a perfectnist you are I guess, i'm not a fan of the no sidelights took.

    Clio 172 Gear Oil

    Yep thats the one i've used for ages. Because its an extreme pressure oil and all the additives in it as you say, it isn't the nicest smelling thing in the world. I made the mistake of leaving some used stuff in my boot before taking it up the tip the next morning, even though it was in sealed...

    Clio 172 Gear Oil

    I'm using/have used Castrol 75w80 stuff, its mineral oil but seems to suite the renault boxes quite well.

    Help ! - Only 1st & 2nd

    I couldn't 100% remember but seemed to think I swear thats supposed to be 1 piece! New box time? Or is it repairable? Whats broken?
  25. B

    Clio 172 Gear Oil

    I'd definetly stick to the proper viscosity of the oil the renault manual says, the boxes are bad enough without having the wrong oil in.

    Slight Missfire

    Its normal, mine runs very similar. Sounds like a missfire but isn't, they just idle roughly.

    Funny smell from heater...

    Use the Air Con a lot? All of mine have done it where i've just switched the a/c off straight away when i've stopped somewhere. The moisture in the evaporator sits there and doesn't dry out and then it starts to smell, theres treatments you can get to kill off the bacteria making the smell. A...
