    Which is the best drive, 182 or 172

    Yeah , 182 with cup packs . Speedwise there was no difference in my 182 with cup packs compared to my (full fat ;) )172 , but handling wise there was definitely a difference with the 182 over the 172 , some of that could be partly down to the exaltos , the slightly lower stiffer suspension and...

    Which is the best drive, 182 or 172

    I've owned both also and couldn't agree more :) The 172 cup interior looks cheap imo plus i couldn't do without the creature comforts and xenons of my 182 .

    Engine Gone, what to do???

    I'd get back in touch with the dealership that did the work . The engine shouldn't have packed up , sounds like bad workmanship , they should replace it . Try ringing the insurance company also and explain the situation as they are the ones who had to foot the bill in the first place .

    Stressed!

    They dent very easily , they are made out of tin foil ;) Keep searching , your bound to come across a good one eventually . The guy i sold my 172 to said the same as you . He'd viewed 6 172's before mine and all had been abused apparently .

    Telling insurance it's an import

    No , you don't need to tell them . Your confusing parallel imports with grey imports , grey imports usually being from countries like Japan where they have different specs , like no rear fog light , underseal ......

    172/182 pedals into 1.2 extreme

    They are only aluminium covers riveted onto the actual pedals . I think the only issue is your accelerator pedal is plastic from what i can gather but people have overcome this problem .

    NEED URGENT ADVICE/ HELP

    Any scratch in glass can be polished out using jewellers rouge , the only downside is if the scratch is really deep it will deform the glass . Check out ebay for jewellers rouge . http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_trksid=m38.l1313&_nkw=jewellers+rouge&_sacat=See-All-Categories

    The New Virgin Media 50Mb Cable Modem.

    I really don't see what Virgin are up to tbh . Why 50 meg ? Unless it's just some marketing ploy that they have the fastest speeds . It will only mean people will hit their download limits even faster so increasing how many people are affected by the traffic management i.e. dropping their speed...

    bought new tyres for the cup

    It amazes me how the general concensus is that Toyos are crap in the wet , yet people still say they would buy them :eek: I'm sorry , but when i buy a tyre i want it to perform well in both the wet and dry . And that doesn't mean driving like a complete t**t in the wet , just a tyre that won't...

    Body Shield Blitz Spray Sealant , dead easy to use . A few layers can be added in next to no time . Or maybe Extreme Gloss M Seal , never tried this one but it sounds like it could be good for your RB . http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/bodysh.htm...

    Removing and Cleaning Brakes ?

    Lmfao . How do you know exactly when they are tight enough to the extent they aren't going to snap ?? :quiet: There's nothing like a bit of crap advise is there . Your wheels should be torqued up to 90Nm .

    Fitting climate control to a 182 cup/trophy?

    Why isn't it very good ?? You set it , the temp remains constant , that's what CC was designed to do . So whats the problem ? Mines always worked perfectly fine .

    Snow foam

    The foam lances are ok if you just want foam . With my method you can foam the car at low pressure then rinse the car down with high pressure foam unlike the expensive foam lances . I just couldn't justify spending £50 on a lance for low pressure foam .

    Rain-X on paint?..

    It doesn't contain petroleum at all . It's alcohol based . I've had it splash on my paintwork loads of times with no adverse effects . I'm not sure i'd try and seal the car with it though just in case . I apply it if know it's going to freeze . When it's freshly applied more often that not...

    Clio 197 Vent Wing

    If it's got a poor finish then get it sorted . It's a no brainer imo .

    Temperature Problem?

    Could be a wire broken from the temp sensor in the wing mirror giving a dodgy reading . Do you fold your wing mirrors in alot when you park up ? Not sure why it would only blow warm air out of the heater when it's set to max tbh . I didn't think they were related as the outside temp sensor is...

    You don't necessarily need a foam lance , there's a cheaper alternative ;) Save yourself 50 quid and spend it on some decent shampoo ;)
