The black nut? Just un twists by hand, the lamp casing just has plastic clips that feels like they will snap because Renault but you don't need any tools from memory :)

Mine does this about every 12 months, have to take the unit apart and clean up the contacts. Some say the earth point causes the same fault by my earths were all mint.

On the back of a trailer, I was in the white car with the roll cage on the way to the rolling road :)

;)

Yeah I was being a bit sarcastic, so it was slagged off before fitting and mapping, makes sense... lol.

But now it's magical right? Lol

Has the SM inlet been improved then? I thought it was proved worse than the standard inlet/RS2 http://www.cliosport.net/threads/sm-inlet-rs2-style-for-182.781063/page-7

I don't think these will fix the issues with my Miltek system anyway as the hole needs to be about 1/2" to the left but hopefully will work on the majority of cars. I modified some EXH008's to get mine to sit nice.

Can order direct, no doubt they will be on ebay/ktec etc shortly though.

For those that haven't seen it already, sorry if this is a repost. http://email.powerflex.co.uk/t/ViewEmail/r/909673F0F9A847F42540EF23F30FEDED/1C451A6605FC5967E663AB054A538FBA

Old thread I know, but is there an earth point under the boot carpet and one further back near the rear bumper? I.e do you have to take the rear trim off near the rear bumper where the eyelets are for the boot net to get to the rear light earth points?

They are Formula Power leads, very good quality. Changed the plugs last night, seems a little better, did a compression test too, 200 on every cylinder. Going to book it in for cambelt soon so will get them to have a look. Could it be a dephaser/vvt issue?

HT leads I changed few weeks ago and spark plugs probably less than 10k ago, hoping it's just a faulty plug but it probably wont be that simple as I've yet to have a faulty NGK plug on any of my cars.

Changed injectors, misfire still there, exactly 3300rpm under load in every gear. Someone suggested burnt valve, will change plugs and do a compression test tonight.

Well after checking every fuse with a multimeter to no avail I decided to disconnect and reconnect the battery which magically made the stereo and clock come back on, thought I'd update in case anyone else has the same issue.

Just changed a battery and now the clock and stereo display don't work, I've checked the F7 and F29 fuses and both ok, any other ideas? The interior light still works (reading other posts this is on the same circuit I think) guessing when I reconnected the battery it popped a fuse somewhere, is...

Thanks guys, appreciate the responses :)

CTS? The lambda sensor solved the terrible misfire when cold, this seems to be all the time and is only slight but I know it's there. When it cut out this morning it was warm. Someone suggested the cat could be blocked, bit of a long shot...

Lol, I fail! 38L I meant. So on the way to work this morning the car just cut out completely, no warning just died, no power steering lights etc, started up again with a bit of hesitation and drove normally, wtf!

I got no error codes showing doing that dash thing just a fuel symbol saying 38 gallons I think.

Cheers bud will try this later, I didn't know! :)

Changed the pre cat lambda and it made the car 1000 times better, thanks! :smile: still got a hesitation though occasionally, am thinking injectors? No codes and I've replaced most other things. Most of my journeys are very short, maybe it needs a decoke!

.

Ah so it's just a straight tube sticking out the inlet with a hose pushed on it, cheers :)

Quick question, from memory there is a sensor or vacuum hose near the throttle body on the upper inlet which you need to disconnect to remove the inlet, is it just a push fit? Am sure I tried to remove it last year and it wouldn't budge, don't want to snap it off.

Cheers bud will try that :)

Someone has suggested could be fuel filter issue (blocked) car has only done 85k, is it usual for the filters to get clogged up? I see the service interval is 150k, how hard is it to get to the filter to check? Thanks

Hmm so checked the code and it had gone, checked and replaced the coilpack (even though it looked mint) and still got the same problem. Is much worse when cold, leads/plugs you think? Any other ideas, no codes other than brake pedal/traction control occasionally, but that has always come and...

Good point, I'll try that first! The garage did say it would refresh with the ignition switched off and back on though and it did get a lot better so assumed it had worked.

Hi guys, my 182 has started holding back/misfiring especially when cold, I put it on a scanner which found the air temp sensor to be playing up so I changed it which made the car much better but it is still there. No other codes came up, does it sound like a coilpack issue? I'm guessing it...
