Morning all, As above, been through the guide forum with no luck. Can anyone give me a quick guide on how to loop and plug the stock 182 hpas rack please? Can it be done with the rack in place etc. Any photos would be good. Thanks in advance.

Afternoon all, So the 182 alternator is toast, it’s possible it’s the original (50k) so it’s done well. While it’s off I’m going to get all the HPAS out, (EPAS at the ready) so my question is this: Is there a belt people have run that doesn’t require a Replacement pulley to replace the PAS...

Not easy to see but there is a clear gap between the bush and the arb. The bushes are less than a year old and due to Covid have covered less than a thousand miles. The clamps are also new and the car is jacked up if that makes any difference. Any input appreciated. Cheers

Evening all, Very common code I know but after trawling threads it normally seems to be associated with cars which are running rough caused by a bad injector/coil pack/leads or plugs. In this case the car was running very well, left standing a bit too long over Christmas and now just turns over...

Afternoon all, Quick question, do I need to remove the air box to get to the crank sensor? Cheers

Afternoon all, I’ve just had my second failed black series bush on the 182. First was the inner roll bar bush, now a wishbone bush. Both were black series, and both failed in 3 years. Granted the car is driven hard and it’s done 10 Trackdays and around 8 thousand miles. I don’t feel like I’ve...

Evening all, Another auto electrical question. I’ve removed the short loom that controls the rain/light sensor at the top of the windscreen housed within the rear view mirror. Serv light is now on. Is there a solution to this other than Ren clip which I don’t have access to? I’m thinking I’ll...

Evening all, A question for those who have a bit of auto electrical knowledge unlike myself. I’ve removed the roof lining and obviously I’m left with the wiring for the interior light and vanity mirrors... Question is.. can I follow this back down to the corner of the windscreen and cut it...

Evening all, Probably a long shot but does anyone have a photo of a front jacking point in good nick? I’ve just folded mine out with grips/pry bars etc. Now looks like:Not brilliant but it was worse. It looks like I’ve folded it down too far though. Should the steel I’ve folded down be more or...

Evening all, As above, friend of mine is asking if it’s safe to run an odessey non metal jacket battery in his engine bay (black casing I believe, MJ is red?). I told him to relocate it in the car as I have. Is he safe to do it or will the engine temps destroy the battery? Cheers

Morning all, Currently running odessey pc680 behind passenger with isolator. When it’s dead I’m looking towards a powerlite pc20. Probably a dumb question but I’m a complete novice! Can I just swap the batteries over with no mods? Also will the distance from the engine bay effect the voltage...

Just a quick 1 chaps. Part way through fitting a vibratechnics upper gearbox mount using guides on the forum. Going ok till this: The 1st washer in the kit won’t go down the spindle far enough, now I’ve read you might need to “tap” down with an over size socket but “tapping “ isn’t working. Is...

Afternoon all, Fitting buckets soon with cage/harness’s etc but I want to retain standard belt for driving to work. Looking at these:Look suitable? Also should I bolt it through the subframe/ floor here: Any help appreciated. Cheers

Evening all, As above probably a total dummy question but I’m no mechanic. I can’t get the strut to hub bolts out, the nuts are off, I can see 1cm of the shaft on the top bolt but can’t get either out. Am I doing something wrong? Cheers in advance

Afternoon all, Picked up a used odessey pc680. I’ve removed the terminals as they were the wrong way round. One of the terminals had two washers under it which bridged the gap between the terminal base and the fixed brass nut which receives the allan bolt. The other had no washers so there was a...

Private reg, looked a very tidy example.

Evening all, As above, I have 90% of the parts to convert my 182 including the dci rack, obviously a used part and the track rods and track rod ends look tired so my question is: Do OEM 182 track rods and track rod ends fit the DCI rack so I can do a simple refresh? Thanks in advance

Afternoon chaps, Just looking for some clarity on a water ingress problem in passenger footwell. Got the scuttle off and I'm unsure if I have parts of the guttering/drainage missing. 1st photo bottom left corner of the windscreen has plastic guttering connected via the white strip. The passenger...

As a few of you already know I've moved over to the French side from the arguably better quality and more efficient German side of the car world. From... To... It's been a transition with ups and downs but I'm 6 weeks or so into the deal and I thought it might be time to log a bit of progress...

Evening all, I'm Matty from Bradford. Brand new to Renault cars and brand new to the forum. Looking forward to a few years running a Clio. Cheers
