    ULEZ extension and 182 Compliance ?

    Somebody on another forum said this "They may have just not updated it. My Cerbera showed up as compliant for about a month, now it doesn’t". Like your 182, mine has been coming up as compliant since the beginning but I believe there was a change to Euro 4 for petrol cars made in September...

    ULEZ extension and 182 Compliance ?

    Now that is very worrying.

    ULEZ extension and 182 Compliance ?

    The ULEZ zone is being extended to the M25 orbital in August 2023 and is set to affect a huge number of motorists. I have a specific question about 182 compliance. Driving in the ULEZ zone is chargeable for any petrol engined vehicle that's not Euro 4 or later. The 182 is Euro 3. However if...

    182 Tyre Recommendations

    Guys, I really appreciate all the suggestions - thank you so much.

    182 Tyre Recommendations

    I used to race karts and cars going back almost 40 years now... so have never compromised on tyres myself. Personal experience/recommendations are far more useful than magazine reviews - hence the reason I posted here. Really appreciate what you've said here.

    182 Tyre Recommendations

    Guys thanks so much for everything here, I really appreciate it. I agree, road tyres are subjective alright. There's price, durability and adhesion to weigh up. I've never used Avons on the road before... but I would be willing to give them a go.

    182 Tyre Recommendations

    I've a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 3s fitted to my 182. They're great and I would like to replace them with either Pilot Sport 3 or 4 but can't seem to find availability anywhere. So my first question is, have they discontinued them in 205/45/16 form ? My second question is, what would you...

    172 Headlights.

    I'm in a similar situation to the above. Everything except for the plastic lenses is fine... but I guess they're a sealed unit ? Is it not possible to buy something like the link below and take the xenon bulbs etc... from my existing unit and swap over ? I know the balasts etc... are located...

    My 182 is killing O2 Sensors

    Original from the factory. The car is pretty low mileage.

    My 182 is killing O2 Sensors

    @Louis The injectors had checked out fine... all resistance measurements were good.

    My 182 is killing O2 Sensors

    It was the injectors. I replaced all 4 with brand new and never had a problem again. BTW the injectors looked absolutely fine, sounded fine [click test] and hadn't thrown any ECU errors. As I couldn't diagnose which of the four had failed [without burning up more O2 sensors], I replaced all...

    OBD scanner tool/app and ABS sensors - 182

    I have Torque Pro and it's excellent for what it does... however it only reads ECU data. I've four cars in total - my 182, an E46, a Golf V TSi and a Ford Focus Mk2. I would be really interested in getting another app that could read more than just ECU data - i.e. body, brakes...

    What springs with cup shocks ?

    Well having measured the centre-to-centre between the lower shock bolts, it is 60mm so I do have a cup-pack after all :)

    What springs with cup shocks ?

    Thank you so much for this guys, really appreciate this. I'm going to measure up the distance between the strut bolts today to confirm whether I do actually have Cup suspension or not. I believe it's 60mm for a Cup strut, does anyone know what it is it for a standard one ? @NBG182 Yes I...

    What springs with cup shocks ?

    I've a 2005 182 with [supposedly] the cup pack, but I've not measured up yet. I was considering fitting lowering springs as I've never liked the ride height of the Clio. I've a few questions : o Is there a difference between stock non cup-pack and cup-pack springs ? o Are coilovers worth...

    182 front fog lights connections

    I've a really silly question that hopefully somebody may be able to help with. I took the engine out of the car around a year ago to do the belts, clutch and a whole heap of other things. I had the front off the car, including the bumper. It's taken me this long to realize my front fog...

    Trolley Jacks 2021

    That looks fine... and it's only 15Kg, right ?

    Think I'm gonna go for the £50.00 Halfords 2 tonne... for now at least and see how I get on.

    Fog light on dash board when braking/ indicating 172 Cup

    Great vid ! Hopefully with my written procedure and your vid... anyone who encounters this problem in future will have some good stuff to get started with :)

    Crash logging on modern ECU

    This is purely for my own interest rather than solving a problem I have. Like a lot of us on here my Clio 182 is old and has relatively limited recording facilities on its ECU... compared to a modern vehicle. Having watched a crash repair of 70 reg Range Rover on youTube [where all the air...

    Fog light on dash board when braking/ indicating 172 Cup

    OK... just thought I'd follow up on where I got to with this in case anyone runs into similar trouble in the future. This is happens when you've poor connectivity to, or in, the rear light clusters. It's a very common problem on Clio 2s. Remember that buying a replacement s/h light cluster...

    Trolley Jacks 2021

    That looks really good... how heavy is it ? In fact the 2 tonne Halfords one looks very good too.

    Trolley Jacks 2021

    I just weighed my own, broken, 2 tonne jack now... it's only 15Kg... 35Kg-40Kg is some weight to be hokin about in/out of the house alright. Think I need one of those aluminium NASCAR jacks :)

    Trolley Jacks 2021

    Which 3 tonne one did you get ? I've got my eye on this two tonne one. I also have an E46 that is very low [my current jack won't get under it] so that would hopefully solve that problem too. There's a 3 tonne cheaper though.

    Trolley Jacks 2021

    The seals in my 25 year 2-tonne old trolley jack have finally cried enough. Guess it's time to get a new one for the new year. There are a few threads on here recommending trolley jacks, one being the Costco Arcan 2 ton, but that doesn't appear to be available from there any more... only...

    Fog light on dash board when braking/ indicating 172 Cup

    Just want to revive this. I've something similar happening with my 182. The fog light indicator flickers on the dash when I apply the brakes. The rear brake lights illuminate fine when the brakes are pressed and the fog light at the rear doesn't appear to illuminate/flicker... just on the...

    What should max coolant and air intake temperature be on 182 ?

    I've ordered a new set of new Marellis and I'm going to replace all four. Fingers crossed that's the end of my woes !

    What should max coolant and air intake temperature be on 182 ?

    Well in essence, something is killing O2 sensors in my car. I opened another thread on it here. I suspect it may be a fuel injector but don't have unequivocal evidence of that. I'm trying to eliminate other things in the meantime. I noticed these figures here - which I felt weren't all that...

    What should max coolant and air intake temperature be on 182 ?

    Thanks for this guys... I'm trying to diagnose another problem and just wanted to 'eliminate these two from my inquiries'
  30. Davyboy888

    What should max coolant and air intake temperature be on 182 ?

    Interested to find out what the upper limit of the coolant and air intake temperatures should be on a Clio 182. I'm trying to home in on a problem with mine and just noticed that they were registering values of 99C for the coolant temperature and 66C for the air intake temperature after the car...
