    best way 2 bed pads in?

    Each pad has different bedding in I've always bedding mine in with some hard 60-10 stops or a lot of left foot braking and never had any trouble. You have to get some heat into them early to get rid of the protection on them.

    Tow bars?

    Renault never type tested the 172/182's for a tow bar therefore fitting one invalides insurance as the car hasn't been rated to tow. The body sheel of a 1.2 though is the same as a 172 its just the 1.2 etc were type tested to tow. The 172/182 arn't ideal for towing the clutches and engine...

Beyond this time/warranty period you maybe asked by Renault for a % payment from yourself for warranty work depending upon how much...

    Shock absorber bolt question

    Renault for offical ones. You can in theory run any bolts 14mm diamter thery are but if you want to run more camber then use a 14mm for the bottom and a 13 or 12 for the top one. Just use some decient bolts. B and Q arn't acceptable. They arn't done upto much torque (100NM) but if they fail...
