Howdy folks... Have been away a while since selling my 182 nearly two years ago...
Have had 2 years rolling in a jeep Cherokee and a diesel focus, but have just done a deal on a GTR! Well excited.
Hopefully catch up with some of the Scottish CS slags for a bit of dogging action sometime soon!
Afternoon folks,
I'm looking to get the car tidied up a bit for potentially selling later this year.
I need a front end re-spray, wheels refurbed and a pdr. I've had a cracking quote from a company with a good rep but they're based in Glasgow so I'd need to hire a car for a week making it a...
Evidently very! Been trying to buy a set of Brembo HC disks and Greenstuff pads from K-tec.
Ordered from them yesterday, only to get a call today advising my address doesn't match my card details... strange, so I checked with the bank and they have the correct address.
No problem I thought...
Looking to see if anyone has any experience of this.
I had a Milltek cat-back fitted to my 182 back in July. When the car was last in for a service, the garage said the baffles were rattling/loose.
Anyone ever heard of this before? Seems fine from inside the car, but I don't want to keep...
I've looked through the many threads on here re the pros and cons of both and the time has come to order one or the other.
Most of my driving is in town and although I'm keen on the extra drop on the sportlines, I'm worried about how badly they affect the ride on the 182.
Quick straw poll...
Not a bad result I'm sure you'll agree! Big thanks to Allan who spent most of Sunday turning it from a clarty, fly spattered monstrosity to this...
Just have to try and keep it that way now!
Right, last week some eejit drove into the back of me at a junction. Not much damage but my exhaust needs replacing as it's bent out of shape and now creaks every time I go over a bump.
The insurance are replacing it with a brand new standard system. This will be getting sold and I'll take...
Just wondered what everyone elses experiences of the 182's high speed handling is?
The front end on mine feels really vague at motorway speeds, very light and is quite disconcerting.
I've been used to rwd before, do you think that's all it is?
Also I've just put new rear tyres on & swapped...
Arrived from Yozzasport yesterday.. 5 min job and no more creaking on full lock! Woohoo!
Still getting squeeks from suspension over low speed bumps though so looking like the bushes need doing too.
Hi guys,
My front tyres are now on the wear bars so need replace pronto!
I have PE2's all round at the minute but fancy trying the F1's out. What's everyone's opinion on using different tyres front & rear (the PE2's on the back have loads of life left in them and I don't really want to waste...
Go 520 Music Edition. Have to say i'm very impressed. Got it from Comet for £179.00 & came with a £10 itunes voucher so £169 really.
Only complaint is the bluetooth didn't work on the first one but they swapped it no bother and the second one works fine.
Dead easy to use (better imo than BMW...
Recently whilst driving on a (closed airfield, naturally) anytime I went much over 100mph, I started getting a really irritating screetching noise from my air vents.
Anyone had a similar problem? Whilst on a private road/race track/autobahn of course ;)
After a long wait, finally go the car home yesterday. Horrendous 10 hour drive to bring it back but got here in the end!
Anyway, reason for the post is I need the bonnet resprayed (black gold) and also one of the wheel centres needs paint too.
Does anyone know anywhere good (and preferably...
Hey guys,
About to pick up a nice 54 plate Clio 182 after a good 2 months of searching.
Foundout about this site via pistonheads and thought i'd find out if there's any tuning specialists based near Edinburgh/east of scotland?
Any tips much appreciated
