Did you end up doing this? I have a nice low mileage 182 but it doesn’t have the cup suspension and I always feel like it’s the one thing that lets it down a little. I don’t mind the extra work if it isn’t mega money to change it.

So turns out it’s this bracket on the front of the servo which some pipes fix to apparently. I think I’ll be seeing how I get on without it since it hasn’t been on for the whole time I’ve owned the car... and it looks less a right pain to get in Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got round to sorting this today. I replaced the vacuum pipe with one I got from a breaker for the sum of £15. Took about an hour of faffing and losing skin on my knuckles but happy to report my brakes feel better than ever. You guys got it spot on so thanks very much. The bit of clear tube that...

Yeah good thinking. Could well be sealed shut like that. Hopefully it will be a nice cheap fix. I’ll get it off this afternoon and have a look. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I did have a squeaky bum moment when a bus pulled out on me in the way back from the MOT centre. I’ll get it done next week. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok thanks I’ll give that a bash and see how i get on [emoji106]thanks for the help Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes so if it’s not running and you pump the brake until it’s hard, it fees just like that. If there was a leak would that clear bit not be more open rather than completely flat? It feels like there’s a vacuum inside when touching it because the clear bit won’t open up at all. Sent from my...

Hi all Took my car in for an MOT yesterday and passed with no advisories. However the joy is very short lived as I’ve no got only about 10% of the braking capacity that I had when I drove it in... I watched the whole MOT and all they really did was jack it up and look underneath and do the...

The more people that ask for more money for their 172s and 182s than those putting them up for pennies for a quick sale, will mean that people expect to pay more overall

Just my two pence but if someone is willing to pay it, it only benefits the rest of us in terms of our valuations. Dealers are in the game to make profit, and aren't really in the game to sell cars in 4 days like the rest of us private sellers and then start to panic when it hasn't sold within...

Yep replaced it today. Even tried it with the pollen filter in to see if it would make a difference but still nothing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So... I had the typical blower fan not working. I change the resistor and plugs etc in the passenger footwell but still no luck. Ended up changing the blower... absolute b*****d of a job. Spent the best part of 5 hours on my back in the footwell. The blower now works on all speeds which is...

Haha very true! Might have some time to get the bumper off this weekend and have a look Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks all I've tried to adjust previously and they weren't budging, just spins around and the beam stays very high. Can only assume they've come unclipped/broken from a previous owner How much of a job is it to put them right? I have done a search before and looks doable just takes a little...

Hi guys I've got my MOT coming up and pretty sure my xenons aren't going to pass. I bought the car less than a year ago and the dipped beam has always been really high, looks to be the typical problem of being wound out too much. I know this can be a bit of a pain to fix and I don't really have...

That’s brilliant. Thank you very much [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi guys I've bought my uncles clio off him for £300. It's a 2007 1.4 Dynamique. It's got 69k on the clock, Full service and 12 months MOT. His heater fan has stopped working and the garage has told him it's a £500 job... :eek:. Before I knew anything he's already bought a 17 plate fabia and...

Hi guys I’ve had my 182 for about 8 months and never don’t recall seeing another with the same exhaust tips as mine. It’s a scorpion system just not sure which it is. Does anyone else have this? P.s yes it’s very dirty. Driving to Edinburgh from Manchester really did a job on it.

Ahh good ideas. Probably end up costing a fair bit but once it’s done it’s done.

That’s great. Cheers both 👍 Is there anything else worth doing whilst I’m in there?

Hi all I’ve recently treated myself to an 04 plate 182 in titanium silver. Absolutely loving it at the moment but I’ve got plans to sort a few things out on it. I’m going to refresh the suspension and wanted to run it by you guys before pulling the trigger. This car DOESNT have the cup...

Just turned the wheel out and lay on the road with the tape measure. Looks like it's 60mm which is great news... but it was really awkward to get to and couldn't properly see. I can get it jacked up at the weekend so will have a proper look then. Thanks again for the help (y).

You’re both diamonds. Thanks that’s a lot clearer now. I’ll go out and have a look.

Hi all Just treated myself to wonderful clio 182 with 74k miles on it and it's a joy. However... I'm trying to get my head around whether it has the suspension cup pack. I know, I know... this has been dragged through the forums a million times (SORRY). However, I'm struggling to find the...
