The cambelt cover is missing? :S That's also the engine mount :eek:

Shouldn't be struggling with a Clio tbh. What jack is it?

The raceglaze alcantara cleaner works well, I use it on the 182's seats all the time. Spray on, agitate gently with a soft brush and wipe. Leave to dry.

Standard rear discs and pads from Ad at Renault Wolverhampton. Brembo HC front discs and Ferodo DS2500 pads from G172 on here.

5w40 fully synth

Breaker bar for the tight wheel nuts and maybe a locking wheel nut removal tool for the rounded off locking nut.

Won't need IS for most situations. The lens is fast enough.

Could be a similar issue to this http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?729100-Immobiliser-problems

Not sure, has the car been parked up for a while?

The immobiliser is not disabling then. Try disconnecting the negative side of the battery for 5 minutes, then reconnect it and turn the key to ignition but see if the light goes out before fully starting.

Does the red flashing light go out when you turn the key?

Going tomorrow with a few mates. It's pretty expensive (£33 + £10 parking)

Jesus! That's what you call a pile up.

Ahh right, I'd prefer to test it properly rather than keep buying batteries.

I take it you've done the test with a multimeter, where you remove the negative cable on the battery and put the meter between the battery terminal and the cable that you've just removed? The draw in Amps should be less than 50mA.

If your car isn't draining it and it's just not holding charge, i'd say you've been unlucky with both the ones you've had. Can get the Bosch S4 from Euro Car Parts for around £50.

Sounds normal with colder weather coming in.

Are the pads free to move a bit inside the caliper?

I get mixed up with the Super and Ultra

Yeah the O.Z. Superleggeras are really light! Not cheap though for a new set.... They still fetch a fair amount used.

Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2's are 6.9kg in 15" size, might be able to find some cheap.

Standard 172 wheels weigh about 4 ton haha 16" Turinis are 8.4kg

If the old oil came out fairly clean I personally wouldn't bother.

I always fill mine with Momentum 99 and it's fine, filled up with V-Power a few months back and it idled weird from cold. Could just be the change in fuel...

Don't need to flush it with anything mate, old oil out, filter on, new oil in.

It's just a push click connector from memory.

Jack it up and put on 4 axle stands. Needs to level ideally.

Think this is the one Riad mentioned to me yesterday.

I noticed you're in Darwen. Take a trip down to Birchdown, they're in Malpas. Would take you about an hour and half to get there, but it'd be worth it to know it's been done properly.

Ahh right, they'd probably work yeah.
