Hi Guys
Have a look at the following picture of my engine bay. (And yes it is standard)
Can anyone tell me how to get these horrible oily marks off the top of the engine? They were left there when Renault had the car in for its first service! :mad:
Cheers
Im not effected but even if I was id stick my fingers up to em. I pay my RISING tax like everyone else. Tax rises and we get less and less services!! :mad:
Id still use the hosepipe. A couple of years ago there was a ban i my area and I still used it then! Balls to them!
Whne we have clios etc brak down with the light on its usually a coil thats packed in but if you arent having any engine misfire etc it could be just down to infrequent use.
I doubt very highly if pushing the accelerator could have caused any damage - just a coincidence I would say.
As said above. Wait 24hrs so that your cover is valid (Or you will have to pay an excess charge of £39 for call out on that day) Whatever you say dont say that you have the problem when you take it out as every single call is recorded stored, logged and monitored.
They can pull the call back...
Do as above or....
I work as an It Manager for the AA. Get a puncture (Let the air out) tell em you cant get the locking nuts off and then they will use their specialist equipment to cut the nut off and blow the tyre back up and just say that a kid let the air out. Works every time. ;)

The renault connector is a white plastic type that will come apart with a small flat bladed screwdriver. The original connectors will then just pull out. You can then keep the original connector with the speaker to put back in the car when you sell it.
With the connectors now exposed put some...
Im after some prices for the Mitchelin Pilots 205/45/16 that come as standard on the 182. Cheapest ive found so far is £95 per tyre all in. Does anyone know if I can get this any cheaper as £190 is still a lot for a pair of tyres?
Do we as a club get any discount anywhere?
Cheers guys
Yeah no im not after massive power gains just a nice rumble. Any recommendations on the zorst? Also will the panel filter give it the rumble type effect im after?
Cant stand them coming over from the neighbours (Whos have 6. 6 FFS) and they sit on the fence and taunt my dogs. Then they have the gaul to shite all over my garden and dig the beds up!
The neighbour had a go at me I told him if he didnt want me to shoot them he shouldnt let them sit on the...
No dont want an evo just saying that I havent got a lot of spare cash so really just panel filter and exhaust would be the most I went for in the tuning department
such as? The only other thiung im planning is a custom exhaust as after that you get into silly money and I might as well go an buy an evo or something!
Will the panel filter invalidate the renault warranty or anything like that? Also will I notice a difference in the cars performance / mpg as im told that if you change the air filter etc that I should get better mpg? How much of this is true im not sure as im not a mechanic.
Thanks for that guys. Last thing I want to do is buy something to lose power! Is this ITG pannel filter a direct replacement and if so how much and where from? Cheers
Should do what I did. Follow this simple guide
1. Get mate or brother who has air rifle
2. Wait for cat (or spotty teenager)
3. Aim
4. Shoot.
Presto the cat wont come back - I guarantee it. Sometimes even the sound is enough to deter them. Other wise you will be :banghead:
Im thinking of buying a K&N induction kit for the 182 but my mate seems to think that Renault have the engine balance right and it could actually reduce the power :S !!!
Is this
1. True
2. Likely to happen and
3. Would I get any advantages to it over say a panel filter.
