it's my brothers clio and just the past few days the engine has started to shake quite a lot when sat idling at lights, we changed the plugs and the ht leads but no improvement, drives ok under acceleration but he says it's lacking power still, i tell him it's cause it's a 1.4 but he fails to...

Ok so yesterday i thought i would ring my local renault dealer and get some new handbrake cables just to be on the safe side having seen the protective sheath had come off the old one where it connects to the rear brakes, was i glad i decided to do this job today. Take a look at what i found...

After the last one Matt and i did there was some interest from people saying they wanted to come so i thought i would put this up for those interested, i'll be going either way as i want to see the difference in my times since the new exhaust and remap was done. Link to the pics from the last...

I went to see Paul at RS Tuning today as a follow up visit from a couple of months back when it seemed there was a serious issue with the power my 182 was putting out when he did a power run for me. I made a few minor and major changes over the last two months and today it went back on the...

I came out of work yesterday to hear a clicking noise from under the bonnet, thought nothing of it and then opened the car, put the key in and started the engine but the alarm hadn't turned off so even though i could start the engine the alarm was sounding and the hazards were flashing, so i...

I came out of work tonight to find there was a clicking noise under the bonnet, got in the car and tried to start it but the alarm wouldn't disarm so although the engine started the lights and siren still went off, turned it on and off a few times and finally it let me start the engine without...

Just poking around under the bonnet earlier like you do when you're bored and i spotted something about the 182 airbox that seems odd to me, there is the main caf pipe that runs down by the side of the front light and then goes into the bumper area, this has the vacuum valve thing on it i think...

I'm predicting my 182 emissions will come on when i get a decat :)......so i'm wondering which is the best budget reader to turn the light off, i know Ktec do one for £41 but ebay ones are as little as £25 like this one...

could someone please measure their 182 catalytic converter for me please?......complete length from fluted end to bolted end thanks.

I loved the open skies and take off/landing options of the microsoft flight sim but i used to love flying war games too only i never liked the fact that missions started in the air already :( is there anything like that for the ps3 ?......a technical flying game basically I need a new game to...

does anyone know if it sounds right that an x reg 1.4 sport clio should have a clutch replacement time of 8 hours?........apparently it's a pain of a job but thats just what the garage told us, any idea's on the acuracy of this, hardly worth it for the money as it's almost half the value of the...

Just wondering if there is a difference in quality as i went to get a new one today but was offered a choice between bosch and NGK, i just had a bad experience with using bosch spark plugs and they made my 182 very poorly :(........but i don't know if one of these makes is better than the other...

Just wanted to see if there is any interest from you guys as to whether or not a convoy down to the renault world series on either the 18th/19th september is a possibility, it's basically straight down the M1 as per FCS convoy so we could pick people up from woodall, trowell and leicester forest...

I think this maybe my fault for not doing better research before hand but i took my 182 for some new plugs the other day and since then i have had a couple of issues with cold starts, jumping when cold and popping, after doing research on here i know now i should have got them to put in the NGK...

I've just had the spark plugs done on my 182 by a garage i use all the time for my services, mot's etc, picked the car up last night and it drove back great, went out this morning and all was fine but when i started it this afternoon, it seemed to want to try cut out when i pressed the...

I have a query about an installation i'm currently doing to fit a sub in my boot, i came across different sub boxes but couldn't find the answer as to why some are sealed units and others are vented with holes of up to 2" diameter, any idea's as to the difference and the pro's/cons of each...

I almost cancelled going today as the rain was so bad but decided to go out for the drive seeing as though i've been stuck in all week, turns out i was the only idiot who turned up so thought i'd make the best of it ;) First off this was yesterday's temperature!!.....what a difference a day...

I'm not talking about entry through the bulkhead as i have a progressive metal drill bit and will be making a new hole with grommit but i was wondering if it is better or easier to run the power down the outside of the passenger seat or the inside? Also is it better or necessary to run it away...

Strange question i know but sometimes i have to put long items in my 182 meaning i have to lay the front seat back but even when i do the headrest sticks up loads and i could do with the extra space but it only seems to come out as far as the last click......has anyone removed theirs for any...

Does anyone have an ingenious way of cleaning the stupid silver seat belt cloth on a 182?, mine are now a dull grey/browny colour :(

Ok i know this has been covered before so many times but i'm not asking for the solution because i know it's a renault garage fix but........ when i get out and lock the car, if i lock it too quick it beeps three time which we all know is an alarm/ecu fault telling me it thinks the ignition is...

I'm struggling to cope with having no bass at in my clio, i have a sony head unit and sony speakers but they are all standard size and i have pretty much zero bass and i like bassy songs so i need some idea's guys on producing bass without filling my boot with a big heavy box........been there...

Its so sluggish, to the point of being useless sometimes, it seems to take ages to load up any programmes and the hard drive light seems to be on and working all the time, i do all the usual clean up checks and the diagnostics doesn't find anything wrong but it's really bad.......my question is...
