    Handbrake cables

    My driverside handbrake cable has just snapped, last done it about 8 years ago. Back then everyone said just stick to Renault as anywhere else never seemed to supply the right size. I see now though that Eurocarparts sell Pagid ones and only have one listed for left and one for right for my 182...

    Lower ball joint issues.

    Bought a ball joint off eBay a while ago from Eurocarparts. Now ECP said they didn't stock the ball joint for my car. However they did sell this one...

    Anthracite wheel colour in aerosol?

    Hi. Just wondering if anyone knows of somewhere that makes up the Cup pack anthracite wheel colour 205110 in aerosols. I've seen some on ebay for about £13.95 delivered for a 400ml can, just about to order but thought I'd ask on here first.

    Parcel shelf rattle

    I seem to have aquired a parcel shelf rattle on y 182 recently. I've taken it out several times and tried to re-align it to no avail. What I'm wondering is there any sort of rubber stopper/bung meant to be on the shelf itself or where the shelf sits as I seem to recall something but there's...

    Gearbox butterfly filler cap/washer

    Can anyone link me or give me the part number for the twist/butterfly (whatever you call it) filler cap for the gear oil on my 182 or ideally link me direct to the washer itself? A while back when taking it and changing the gear oil the washer dropped and got lost. I want to replace it but I'm...

    New bonnet?

    I've been aware for ages that there was rust on the inside front of my bonnet but never got around to sorting it (I'm talking nearly the length of time I've had the car - nearly 8 years 😊). Over the last year and a bit it's finally came through, nothing too bad at the moment but it does...

    Timing cover

    Just checked my oil and water etc as I was about to set off on a 200 mile round trip. On doing so I noticed the top two timing cover bolts were loose, a lower one actually about to come out (timing belt done in april). What's the liklihood these bolts will have worn loose rather than have been...

    Squeal/screech/squeak when turning right

    As above, been going on for ages, only got a touch worse recently. It doesn't always do it, but if you're turning right and go over a bump/round a corner/roundabout there's something coming from the right side of the car. It seems be something of a screech, with a squeak at times when you go...

    Tailgate solenoid/lock

    Got a 54 plate 182 and I need a new tailgate lock/solenoid. Does anyone know how much these are new (if we can even get them new)? Prices second hand seem to be from £15 to £30, if new ones aren't too expensive I'd rather buy new.

    Power Steering fluid change

    Think mine needs doing as to my knowledge it's never been done and there's an occasional whine/squeak when turning right when the car goes over a bump or is leaning down on the right. I've done loads of searches but none with a definite way of doing it. IS there a best place to drain from and...

    Gear oil filler question....

    The little plastic butterfly bolt where you fill the gearbox with oil, is it supposed to have a washer or seal on it? First time I done mine several years ago I think something fell off, though not sure and it's just been the plastic bolt since. I've always kept and eye on it and it's not...

    Locking wheel nut key

    I'm guessing Renault is the best place for a locking wheel nut key? Can anyone give me an idea of how I go about getting one and how much they cost? I've just been putting my spare wheel on as my lass has managed to dent the rear passenger side arch and scrape the wheel on a gate post :mad...

    182 thermostat gasket

    Decided to finally change my coolant today, but didn't figure on needing a gasket for the thermostat. Problem is my local Renault parts department is shut. ECP have this one...

    Battery type?

    Needing a new battery and looking on ECP and it suggests a 075.I read somewhere else on here that the Sport takes a 075, but then several threads suggest a 063?? Anyone shed any light on this.

    Braided brake hoses, worth it?

    Going to do a brake refresh as they seem a bit tired at the moment. Fluid was done just over two years ago, but I stupidly only used some Carlube stuff due to a tight budget at the time, so I've just ordered some ATE Super blue. Going to also fit new bleed nipples. The front pads and discs...

    My girlfriend has had a starting issue three times in the last two days where the car has failed to start on three occasisons, then starts and runs fine (once it started ok, ran for five mins then was left and failed to start first time). I've just took it out (the car was warm having failed to...

    What primer?

    Painted a couple of wheels a few weeks ago using my compressor and spray gun and I'm pretty pleased with the results. When doing so I used some left over primer I had off ages ago for a couple of small areas which needed filling (was given to me) and I had no idea what type it was, but it seemed...

    MOT testing in Doncaster

    Anyone know anywhere decent? Or rather places I should avoid. Not sure where to go, used the council last year as it came recommended and the two blokes who were there when I got my car retested annoyed me beyond belief with their attitude and ignorance.

    Does anyone use the above oil? Asking as mine is nearly due it's yearly service and I've previously used Silkolene Pro Race and then for the last two years Gulf Competition, the latter which has barely used any at all.

    Worrying squeal/screech from engine bay.

    Just been washing my car, moved it over from the other side of the road and everything was fine. Then I started washing it and had to move it back slightly as someone was changing a tyre in front of my car and as I did I got a kind of screech or squeal lasting a few seconds and I turned the car...

    First time painter, advice needed.

    Hello. I'm eventually going to paint my bumper but for now I'd starting on an alloy. I've done bits of painting on old cars before with aerosols (basically bits of bodging), but never with a spray gun and compressor (which I now have). So basically to get started I realise I need to sand/strip...

    Where to buy bottom ball joints?

    I'm asking as my car has just failed it's MOT. So I got home and picked up the phone and called GSF. Whilst on the phone he first says they dont do them (WTF?) then starts talking about only being able to find some for a 1.4 and that I'd have to call Renault for a part number. So I then looked...

    Body Shop in Doncaster area.

    Need to get the 182 front bumper and wing painted after someone reversed into it. Had a few quotes which come out more or less the same, just unsure of who to use so was wondering if people on here can point me in the direction of someone decent.
