    Underhood whining noise (video included)

    Can anyone help diagnose this whining noise emanating from the Aux belt area? I realise it could one of many things running off it. The noise doesn't change or disappear when you turn the steering lock to lock or engaging the AC comp. It's literally come out the blue on Friday driving to work in...

    Mintex M1155 pad users, please look.

    I had a performance brake package fitted to my Clio 182 this week by a reputable specialist. Consisted of New front Discs, M1155 pads, braided lines and ATE Super Blue. I've driven roughly 100 hundred miles on them, moderately braked to start with then a couple of 80-30mph to try and bed them in...

    I've recently purchased some alternative wheels and I just want to get them done in some form of Anthracite, literally a sandblast and powder coat. Nothing fancy. Anybody know anywhere cheap in Buckinghamshire or Bedfordshire? If not it's gona have to be a DIY!

    Silicone elbow to ITG Maxogen

    I have this very Forge Induction Hose on my 182: Will this fit an ITG Maxogen? I've had a look at it and I am not convinced it is long enough after browsing images of peoples Maxogen fitted.

    Sat on a sweet :(

    Basically I some how managed to sit on chewy sweet in this hot weather :rolleyes: Now it's left a square patch of residue on the Alcantara. Would Raceglaze Alcantara cleaner tackle this? or do I need something stronger like an upholstery cleaner?

    Clio 182 cranking but not starting!

    I am a bit worried about the Clio at the moment :( Here are the symptoms: - Key in, wait for the lights to extinguish, try to start and it just cranks over. - If I remove the key, close the door, lock and unlock and then try again the engine will start up straight away 90% of the time. When...

    H&R coilover refurb

    I have some H&R coilovers that require a refurb I think, there is play in the piston rod. Has anybody had a similiar problem? Is it a new Insert job or bushes? I've emailed H&R in Germany but not had a reply, I believe that the damper is a Bilstein unit. Where can you get these refurbed? Thanks

    ITG Maxogen soundclip

    I've looked in all the usual places but can't really get a decent idea of how it sounds on a Clio 182. Anybody know of a video or are willing to do a quick one of theirs? How much different does it sound to OEM? Cheers

    Traction Control query

    It appears that I can't disengage the TC on my 182, first time I've tried it in my ownership to be honest. Flick the Rocker switch and the TC warning lamp illuminates, but then extinguishes after approx 3 seconds, my understanding is that it should illuminate solid whenever TC is disengaged...

    Titanium 182- Millbrook Proving Ground

    Spotted coming in this morning, had to do a double take as it is almost identical to mine. I park mine in the top carpark. You have Anthracite Turinis/ultraleggs? aftermarket exhaust and a French flag colouration on the Grille?

    Rainsport's in the snow

    Anybody else find that they are really poor in the snow? I have a set on the 182 with plenty of tread left. I know that they are technically classed as a 'summer tyre'.

    Exterior Carbon Fibre

    My 182 has quite a lot of carbon bits on the exterior, is there any way of keeping the lacquer on these parts looking shiny? My Carbon splitter for example is starting to look dull.

    OZ F1 fitment to a 182

    I can't find a definitive answer, Do they fit straight onto a 182ff with cup packs? From my understanding there seems to be earlier versions and later ones. Thanks, Mat

    High pitched sucking/blowing sound

    182, standard airbox with ITG and a KTEC S/sports with standard Cat. Very noticeable at 3000-5000rpm under acceleration. Best way to describe it is that it sounds a bit like a turbo spooling up, definitely not meant sound like this. In my experience I'd say this was an exhaust blow, Manifold...

    Headlight problems

    I have a mk1 phase 3 and for a reason unbeknown to me over the last month the headlights have risen and are completely out of line. Also the left unit appears to be brighter than the right unit. I've had a go at adjusting them today with the plastic shaft adjuster but with no luck, i've made...

    Best aftermarket bulbs

    I just wondered what opinions were on the best bulbs. I have Phillips Bluevisions in my Mk1 and the difference is ten fold. Has anybody tried the new Osram Nightbreakers or Phillips Xtreme bulbs?

    Using Lacquer

    Currently in the middle of refurbishing some rims. I'm to the point where lacquer is ready to be applied but i just wanted some opinions on sanding with wet and dry beforehand. It says on the can to do this with some 1200 as to help it adhere to the paint but a few mates have said you don't...

    HID Kits

    Would it be illegal to fit one to a mk1 clio? I have heard that if they aren't self levelling such as the ones fitted to cars in factory as standard then they are illegal.
