    Anyone familiar with DevOps? Simple question....

    Hi all, New to Microsoft DevOps myself, but learning it from a BA perspective. Just wanted to know if there's a simple document storage option per project at all? I want to upload generalised items like .docx, .pdf, .vsd files and the like that cover scoping docs, stakeholder analysis - items...

    Rail above airbox

    Hi all, Has anyone got a picture of the way the rail above the 182 airbox connects at the front end? I’ve put everything together after some work on it today and it doesn’t ‘look’ right. Cheers.

    Likely to be the starter?

    I've touched on this in other posts, but I'm getting a weird non-crank issue when the car is warm and I go to start it. Absolutely nothing - lights, fans and dash comes on fine, but will not attempt to spin over. First thing in the morning - it fires up no issue. If I leave it at work all day...

    Inlet plenum O-ring

    Hi all, Does anyone have the part number for the O-ring for a 182 inlet plenum please? Cheers, D.

    Exhaust bumper trim - removal from a 182

    Hi all, Was going to remove my exhaust trims from the rear bumper and give them a spruce up. They look a bit crap and faded now. Do they simply pull off in a certain direction, or are they attached with clips, etc? Thanks.

    Earth cable - what do I actually need?

    Hi all, I seem to be going down various rabbit holes of details regarding getting a replacement earth cable - the one that is situated behind the arch liner of the nearside front, attached to the gearbox. I cannot find a Renault OEM part number for one and have seen posts online that say...

    Cookie consents and web tracking getting out of control

    Something has to change in the general browsing of Internet pages - surely? I'm trying to make my way into learning basic SQL - reading online various steps of database creation, tables, queries, that sort of thing. Yet every, single, website is riddled with the BS comment "We value your...

    DLSS swapper

    Not sure of the 'true' benefits of this, but thought I'd give it a go. So, some studios leave their existing DLSS support in limbo, despite updating and patching the game that uses it. Some people report significant improvements within games that support DLSS and of the games I've tried it with...

    Happy birthday 182 - 20-years-old today

    Seems a long time ago since I picked it up new from Renault Manchester in Salford, with 7 delivery miles on the clock. 176k, three house moves and one divorce later - it's still my daily. Scary to think that I was 29 when I ordered it and 50 in twelve-days time. :) I even recall some...

    Zombie Army 4

    Surprised that there's not been a thread for any of the Zombie Army games yet? I thought it was worth a mention, having completed the main campaign and the one included in Season Pass 1 on the PC. It's a great, mindless 3rd person shooter. More so, it's only £3.89 on cdkeys at the minute and...

    182 rear quarter panel replacement - Part 2

    I can't believe that two years have passed since I had the offside rear done. https://cliosport.net/threads/182-rear-quarter-panel-replacement-part-1.844036/ Regardless, the nearside panel and a replacement bonnet were ordered from France yesterday. :) ETA will be 2 weeks minimum and the body...

    Headlight protection question

    In an effort to stave off the effects of UV as long as possible on my headlights, I wanted some advice about the UV protection coating itself. On the bottle I have, it says to regularly apply every 3-4 weeks. However, would you suggest using a headlight cleaner first each time and then apply...

    Any idea what this cable is?

    Behind the passenger headlight. Didn't have much travel on it so was struggling to think what it connected to. At first, I thought it with the bonnet catch button, but the fitting definitely didn't match it.

    Anyone have a spare set of wheels to borrow - BB4 postcode?

    Hi all, Scrounging favour time..... ;) Anyone in the north Manchester/Rossendale area with a spare set of wheels for a 182? Just need them for a few days while I get mine off to be refurbed. Happy to pay rental in beer-tokens or similar currency. Cheers, D.

    Bit of work on the front arch liners

    So, a while back I bought a set of replacement front liners from Autodoc and of little surprise, they didn't fit. At barely ten Euros each, it's no big loss - but was surprised to see that their app suggested compatibility for the 182. When I raised it with them, they basically said that I...

    Sins of a Solar Empire II

    Been waiting a long time for the follow-up and managed to nab it today from cdkeys. Certainly looks pretty and making my way through the tutorials at the minute. Hopefully it will appeal just as much as the original title did.

    Black Myth - Wukong benchmark

    Potentially the hardware-killer crown has been transplanted to this. On Steam, they offer a free benchmarking tool and it seems pretty demanding - especially on the water sections. Here's my default benchmark running on a 3090. Apparently 4090's are heading towards 100fps - which would be...

    NGK spark plugs - heat range consideration?

    So, it's my understanding that the spark plugs at heat range 6 are fine for a standard 182, range 7 for a modded/turbo or supercharged option and range 8 for a pure track car. As they all appear to be the same price anyway, are there any gains in terms of smoother idle, smoother response by...

    Radiator fan

    Bit of a random post, but in all the years of ownership, I don't think I've ever heard the radiator fan kick in? Even when I was sat in queuing traffic on the motorway years ago and it was low 30C weather outside. It did cross my mind that the fan could be broken perhaps? It does spin fine if I...

    Replacement side indicator covers?

    Looks like I've lost an indicator cover off the front wing and tbh - could probably do with replacing both. I swapped out the awful orange originals probably 15+ years ago - so would be after another set of clear ones - or very mild grey tint. Having looked online, there appears to be some...

    Battery powered impact driver

    Hi all, Just after a recommendation of the subject header really. Would only have occasional use just to assist with general car maintenance - nuts, bolts removal, etc. Not airline/compressor powered. Cheers, D.

    Lugs underneath the back seat?

    Hi all, Can anyone confirm what these lugs are beneath the rear seat please? This is on the passenger side. The rearmost one appears to be leaking water in slightly when driving in rainy conditions?

    Yet another rear seat thread….

    So without resorting to cutting the stupid T40 bolt head off - is there any other way of getting the seats out? I would have thought that either seat would simply pull apart when lifted out of its retaining lug towards the outsides of the car. Clearly it’s not that logical or straight-forward...

    VR sensor mounts?

    I've got two of the HTC Vive sensors currently mounted on small camera tripods, that do an OK-ish job at tracking the headset. However, I'm more interested in mounting them permanently to the wall(s). What have other people used in terms of brackets or wall-mounts previously? I believe that...

    Homeworld 3

    The demo is out today and it's instantly recognisable as a Homeworld title. I don't know if the full game will be as good, but the slow, haunting music combined with the 'beam in' noise of the mothership coming out of hyperspace, to the command voices being heavily overlayered with static - are...

    Centre scuttle drain location - 182

    As many have experienced before, it's quite common to get water ingress in the footwells at this time of year - with the scuttle drains usually being the prime suspect. I checked on mine today having recently had a damp patch on both sides at the front. That was making me suspicious that it was...

    Has anyone refurbed the original 182 seats?

    Just curious. Or have most people just ditched them in favour of aftermarket options?

    Anyone know what fittings are needed for front arch liners?

    Hi all, Does anyone know if the arch liners have a fitting kit of fastenings? I've got two new liners for my 182, but no fastenings for them. Cheers.

    Roof rail strips - how to remove?

    Just want to clear out any crap from behind them on the roof of mine. Before I attempt it - what wise words of removal have people got? Is there a specific technique used in taking them off? I have got a set of trim removal tools if those help? Cheers, D.
