It pisses all over the Eezibleed for quality. You'll see what I mean when it arrives 👍
Plus there's no faffing about connecting it to your wheel. It's dead easy just to keep it at 20psi with a few pumps.
I did all 4 calipers in next to no time. I bled through a couple of litres. I'd been having...
It's gone up a couple of quid since I bought it.
There does seem to be quite a few sellers selling it now, for a little bit less. Well they look the same as mine anyway.
To be honest. I've never seen this one mentioned before.
Usually the go to pressure bleeder on here seems to be the Eezibleed over the years. I have seen the odd different one mentioned that are quite expensive.
This one makes you realise just how cheap and nasty the Eezibleed is.
Knowing what I...
Just a bit of a heads up for anybody contemplating buying an Eezibleed pressure bleeder.
Don't waste your money.
I bought an Eezibleed a few weeks ago. It worked first time, but when I came to use it again a couple of weeks ago it pissed air out from a couple of places, so I took it back and got...
I stand corrected. I've just been to fill the screen wash up and checked mine. They are lightly coated in rust. I've had the car since new and they've always been rusty as far as I can remember lol.
Both the Pre cat and post cat sensors are the same. The only difference used to be one cable was longer than the other.
Genuine bosch sensor here. Probably as cheap you'll find one. Click on the link below...
I'm with Hastings and had a no fault claim. They were very good.
Basically this little old lady joined the roundabout in the wrong direction, I was joining the roundabout, literally a couple of miles per hour and she got me head on.
I had dashcam footage, the little old lady admitted full...
They do if you've got a decent fitting kit.
This is one I knocked up out of stainless parts years ago. It's still going strong and even better now I've got a stainless flange. 😁

There's a guy on Facebook called Luca Locatelli who sells stainless flanges.
When my car was at Birchdown, they welded the stainless flange in place with the exhaust manifold still in situ.
Have you tried Renault? I had one replaced 2 years ago through my insurance after some minor front end damage. It came from Renault in France along with some other genuine parts.
You should have auto wipers and lights, regardless whether it's an import or not.
Both of mine did. Maybe you've got a fault with gel pack on the windscreen, or had your windscreen replaced at some time and it wasn't fitted?
I bought my first 172 import in 2001 from an Independent Renault garage. I think I paid £13k for it and had it 4 years.
My 182 import that's still my daily drive I bought from Motorpoint 18.5 years ago for £12k.
I had both of them fitted with a Toad alarm.
I don't know the spring rates. It just says that the spring rates are the same as the original springs. I've had the their lowering springs on my 182 for a couple of years now and I really rate them in terms of drop and handling.
Grams make 2 different types of springs. One type lower the car and are regarded as an upgrade to the original springs. These are the ones I have fitted to my 182.
They also make a spring that is a direct replacement for the standard springs.
You'll be very lucky to find original springs now as...
Coilovers aren't exactly standard spec.
I have Grams springs on my 182 with standard cup dampers. They drop the car about 25 ish mm all round and the car handles better than standard springs in my opinion.
On my 182, if you leave the lights on and exit the car there's a beeping sound to let you know to turn the lights off.
Off the top of my head, I seem to recall it beeps about 6 times then stops.
I would imagine your cup is or was the same?
As for your indicators clicking / not clicking . I...
Cheers mate 👍 I've ordered a thread pitch gauge. It should arrive today.
I found another rear caliper with different bolts in again lol. Im not exactly sure where I got this one from, I've had it years.
The calipers I've refurbed are genuine Renault ones that originally came on my 182. Hopefully...
If you could check it would be much appreciated.
I ran a M12 x 1.25 die down a couple of the bolts just to clean them up but it removed a bit of material so I stopped. They are a fine thread. I'll be surprised if they're a 1.75 pitch. I've read a bit about the bolts, there's not much info to be...
They're the 2 bolts that go in here. Not the 2 bolts that bolt the caliper to the hub.
Looking on that list from the link you posted it doesn't show any of those bolts. They're about 25mm long.
Did you manage to sort out the caliper carrier bolts?
I'm looking to replace mine but can't find the exact size. I thought they were M12 x 25mm x 1.25 thread pitch, but having visited a local tool distributor today to get some new bolts they didn't have any and didn't know the exact size.
