Right, decided i will give it another go later. I'll try and slide that bar out. I assume the bold will be accessible then? Once the 2 bolts are off will the caliper come off? Or will i need to mess about with the piston? If so, could someone please be very helpful and explain in layman's...

Couldn't get it out mate. Haven't really got a clue what i'm doing so going to leave it. Its going for a service tomorrow so will ask them how much they'll charge to swap them. If they take the piss i'm sure someone i know would have a better idea than me. Cheers.

Changing rear disks at the moment. Have wheel off, and have removed top bolt holding the caliper on. How do i remove the bottom bolt? There is a metal bar in the way. i am referring to this page http://www.fubarnet.com/rear_discs.html I have a 182. Is there a difference between this and a ph1...

Interesting. Don't really care about that though as car is going in a month. Hows the VXR mate?

Nice one guys. Like I said, i've got new pads ready to fit now. Will fit them before the service and see what Renault say. I want to keep the cost to a minimum as its a company car (basically leased) and its going back in a month and they'll take me to town if it goes back and needs stuff...

No idea. Guy said its not just a straight disk swap on the rear. An extra bearing part was needed, thus pushing up the price.

Sorry, 182.

I left my car with Kwik Fit on the weekend to have my brakes checked over since I haven't had them changed since new and haven't had time to get it serviced lately (shes on about 25K now). Anyway, they quoted me £620 for new pads all round and new disks all round including what they described...

Excellent, so thin screwdriver under edge and it should pop off?

Managed to scuff my wing mirror on a wall just now. Rather pissed off. Its only the cover thats a bit scuffed, nothing else. How do you remove the cover? Do the just come off with a screwdriver in the right place, or does the whole mirror need to come off. 182 FF by the way. Cheers, James

Cheers. Any way i can easily check how much more of the pad is left? Just worried i'm gonna hear metal on metal soon. Is it easy enough to see if i take the wheel off?

Yeah, checked that out earlier. Just want a standard set of pads. Any direction you can point me in? Like i said, i'd rather not get bent over by Renault. Cheers

Sorry. 182

Think i need some new pads. Brakings been feeling a bit dull for a while now and earlier they sounded louder than usual. (They have done nearly 20K miles so I think i've pushed it enough) Where is the best place to go and have them done? Would go to Renault but i probably won't get booked in...

Have a 182. Just checking if anything needs changing. Cheers!

Was driving to work today and noticed the clock change to 10000! Was strange as didnt take much notice of it when it was on 9K but couldnt stop looking at it earlier :-/ Anyway, does anyone know when it should be first serviced? Also have been thinking about changing the oil. Should this be...

Only 7 miles away from me on autotrader! Probably seen you around. Have seen a silver 172 around Newport. Looked nice, abviously might not have been you though ;-) Good luck with sale!

lol, they sent me one of those. Havent opened it but guessed it was that.

So does Admiral regard Factory Options as Modifications?

Hey, I have had my 182 with both cup packs for a year now, and its is time to renew my insurance. In my current insurance, under modifications it says; Spoiler - rear Suspension Lowered (<5cm) Question is does having the cup packs change the maker's standard specification. Originally i...

are they any good. Just looking at their site now.... say they have a 2 year warenty. wonder if it what it starts to look like after 2 years though. does anyone know anyone who have used these? Thanks

Came back to the car park today to find marks on my front bumper:@ Not much damage to it, but looks like someone has reversed into me. Can you have a bumper repaired? Theres no cracks in it, just few minor scratches. Any one have any ideas? Cheers

Exactly the same happened to me today. Came back to car park to find marks on my bumper:@ Theres not much damage to it though, no cracks or bed dents, just a scrape, so wondering if it can be repaired. Anyone have any idea?

Cheers guys. Props for the lightning reply. Didnt expect it Yeah, im unfortunately used to it now to. Feels weird when i drive my girlfriends car and nothing happens

Hi, Im new here and would be greatful for some advice. Last month I bought a new Clio 182 and am very happy with the purchase. Ever since ive had it though, it makes a clunking noise as i pull off in 1st gear. It only does it the first time the car pulls away from turning it on. After the...
