Is there any significant difference with the Ktec and Pure Motorsport stud conversion kits http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=4784 I appreciate these step down to 1.25 rather than staying 1.5 but I don't see that being a major issue. If anything the fine thread could help prevent...

So just how noisy is the ktec induction kit? Anyone got a video of it?

Pretty sure the timing on my car is out by one tooth or so. It runs pretty lumpy and average mpg is not great compared to others. I also noticed the tell tale tipex marks on the pulleys!!! How easy/how long would it take to check and adjust if needed, going on the assumption the belts are...

Does anyone have the details or part number for the single exaust mount that sits at the back of the rear box? Mines missing on my 182. Is it really needed with the other 2 in place and the centre one?

Has anyone else had issues with the new style top mounts coming loose? A couple of times now I've taken the first nut and top hat off to find the new style nut underneath only finger tight. I've checked installation and torque settings and all is fine. I hate top mounts. If only the pure...

Anyone know of a good non-genuine oem exhaust supplier for the 182, needs to be as quiet as standard. Stainless is not an option and ideally as cheap as possible. Can't find much online, only this on eBay but not sure if its any good or should be avoided...

Can anyone still get hold of the old style top mount spacers and separate nuts? I'm having the same issue others have had with the new style combined nut/spacer causing horrific knocking and also coming loose on regular occasions even though they have been torqued right up. Bloody things!

Looks like the o/s driveshaft is definitely dying so time to change it. Other than the driveshaft what else am I going to need... New driveshaft gearbox seal?.. hub nut gearbox oil Anything else?

Changed the top mounts on sat for some Pure Motorsport solid jobbies and also fitted some eibach sportlines. Ever since ive been getting a metallic grinding/squealing on left lock at low speed coming from the drivers side front wheel. First thoughts was something not fitted properly and rubbing...

Can you use the standard alloy wheel bolts/locking wheel bolts on steel wheels or should you use a different type? Without looking on the car I know some have a built in washer and some don't.

What are my best options? I need a new exhaust as the welds have gone again on the standard one and I dont want to fork out the silly amounts Renault want for a replacement 182 system. Basically I want OEM sound, I can't be dealing with loud, boomy or droaning exhausts. I've had a search but...

Anyone else have this problem, the glass in the wing mirrors wobbles about a fair bit when the car is going anything over about 40 (and the drivers side one rattles like a b*tch too. Is it just a case of taking them off and maybe packing them out a bit?

Does anyone have a diagram/picture of the power loom that goes in the back of the stereo? Just need to confirm which wire relates to what. Cheers

I installed my Parrot MKi9000 the day after i bought my 182 without any problems and it was working fine (was also previously in my scenic for months without issue. A week later the car had an ABS fault which turned out to be the ABS pump fuse blowing. So the cars been in the garage for the...

Got in the 182 on Saturday morning, only to notice the abs, esp, serv, stop, engine management and handbrake light were all up and the speedo was not working. Also auto locking and seatbelt warning beep were not working (speed related so makes sense with the speedo out) My first assumption was...

Hi All, I'm from sunny Broadstairs down in Kent. Been swotting up for a few weeks on the forum and looking for a 182, finally i'll be picking up a BG 182 FF on Friday. Looking forward to being back in a small fast french car again.... i think :)

Hi, Thought I'd better introduce myself, been lurking for a few weeks swotting up on info. Looking to buy a 182 FF in the next few weeks, although I'm going to wait for the right one to come along. Last good car was a 306 GTi-6 that i had for nearly 5 years and spent a small fortune on...
