    Importing 182 to UK...

    I'd sell it over there mate and get a right hooker when you get back over here . Plenty available nearly new , still a few new ones knocking about if you search , plus the cost of shipping it over won't be cheap . You could use the money you save from not shippin it over to get a good , mint...

    I didn't know it was the spark plugs at the time . It was struggling under 2500 revs , took it to the a local bosch certified garage who found the plugs were f*cked . Renault use NGK PFR6E-10 , about £10 a plug .

    Who makes the best spark plugs?

    Renault says the plugs in a 172/182 are good for 72k miles . Mine lasted just over 30k miles in my old mk2 172 . No engine mods and always run on optimax from new .

    Mk2 172 20% Imbalance in front brakes

    If your pads are worn then change em . You'd have to get the car tested on the rollin road again to check if there is still brake imbalance, they might do it for free if you ask em nicely ;)

    Mk2 172 20% Imbalance in front brakes

    So if one caliper is working better than the other i.e pulling more efficiently you will have brake imbalance . If the piston is tight , or slightly seized in the caliper then it won't operate like a good caliper would . I'd take the caliper off , leaving it connected to the brake hose , press...

    Bought a 172, found some damage what should I do.

    When you say recently , how recent ? Like you say , buying from a dealer you " should " have some comeback if anything is wrong . But if quite a bit of time has passed they " might " try and put the blame on you or you could be lucky and get the repair for free . Take it back mate , tell...

    using touch up paint....

    http://www.guidetodetailing.com/articles.php?articleId=27 This might help . I touched up a small stone chip on my wing mirror , 100% better than it was , but if you look closely you can still see it slightly . Make sure the area is clean , no wax , polish etc . I washed the area with washing...

    Mk2 172 20% Imbalance in front brakes

    And why would the pads cause brake imbalance ? Brake imbalance is when one caliper is working better or harder than the other side i.e not braking at the same rate . It wouldn't matter if one set of pads had 4 mm left on and the other had 7 mm they both would brake evenly if the calipers were...

    ^^^^ that means f*ck all ^^^^ Renault are not exactly sh*t hot at repairs if reading some of the stories on here is anything to go by . And they weren't exactly helpful when he took the car into the garage were they .

    Mk2 172 20% Imbalance in front brakes

    My 172 failed on 26% brake imbalance , anything over 25% is a fail .I just took off the caliper , pushed out the piston , greased it with a little copper grease and it past :)

    Seriously pissed off now. Do i need a remap?

    Are from near Blackburn mate ? If so get it up to SAS at guide . He's a bosch main agent but can also check out faults on siemens . He sorted out the problem on my old 172 , turned out the spark plugs were f*cked . He's just on the right hand side , about 100 yards as you go up the old...

    11K tops minus your trade in of at least 2K try for 2.5k for yours . Read the small print on the servicing , ask plenty of questions , find out what the free servicing actually covers , does it cover parts and labour ??
