    Head Gasket?

    FFFFFUUUUUU Spent ages yesterday changing the gasket, coolant, and expansion bottle. Everything was all nice and clean. I used some gasket sealant alongside the new gasket and drained and flushed the system the best I could. The coolant that came out of the bleed valve and wherever else I...

    The 'What MPG Do You Get?' Thread

    No idea... It's an average readout and its not hugely accurate anyway. The only other variable would be your acceleration before activating cruise control. Obviously you're just in more of a rush to get home! Lol

    The 'What MPG Do You Get?' Thread

    FF 182 with almost 120k on the clock. On a tank where I'm taking it slow I easily get 35mpg. If I'm having a bad week and my right foots a little heavier than normal then I struggle to get below 30mpg.

    Head Gasket?

    Ok so the parts should be here todAy. I'm a planning on doing everything tomorrow. Is it worth applying something like this too: http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductMobileDisplay?catalogId=10151&storeId=10001&productId=173059&categoryId=255217&langId=-1 Also, after removing...

    Head Gasket?

    Lol. Noted!! Most challenging part seems to be draining and flushing the coolant. Other than that looks fairly straight forward... Right? Lol

    Thanks all.

    Head Gasket?

    Thanks Dan. Spoke to the previous owner and he's saying the same. Guess I just panicked a little seeing as she's a high miler! I was down in Somerset last week, could've popped it in if I'd of known then! lol Is this what I need...

    Head Gasket?

    Yeah I have read that they rarely go.... Apparently the thermostat gasket can allow oil/coolant to mix without any visible leaks? It's one of those jobs that I've been putting off.... I've seen some thermostats that come with the gasket included for around £15. Is it easy to replace? If so, I...

    Head Gasket?

    By the way... oil seems clean. Forgot to check levels so just waiting for car to cool down before I do that.

    Head Gasket?

    Hey guys, So on the M69 yesterday at 'motorway speeds' I glance down at the fuel gauge and notice the temperature gauge is over 3/4. I immediately jumped in to the slow lane doing about 55/60 mph and the temp gauge dropped back quickly to 1/2 way mark. I decided to take my time and stuck...

    Car pulls to left, but only on certain roads... Road camber?

    Thanks guys. Everything has been replaced within the last 6 months so it should all be solid. I'll double check though.

    Car pulls to left, but only on certain roads... Road camber?

    Hi guys, FF Clio 182 with cup packs, 04 plate. I've noticed that on about 90% of roads it pulls to the left, it seems worse the closer to the curb I am. There are a few roads where the steering wheel is straight and the car doesn't seem to pull at all. The tracking had been checked just...

    Split fuel line....

    Ok, so all of a sudden on the way to a meeting this afternoon there's a MASSIVE smell of fuel in the cockpit. I'm driving behold some battered old Fiat so I figure that it's them... it gets so bad that I nearly tried to get them to pull over because there was clearly a fuel leak. It was pretty...

    Black 1*2 on Middlefield Lane, Hinckley

    I was heading down toward Richmond Gate in my RB 182. I gave way to you. About 16:40 today.

    My new RB 182!

    Don't make me nervous.... Hit 113k today... Wasn't there a Trophy going around on like 175k? I saw a thread a few weeks ago saying the engine had finally given up?

    thinking of doing up the engine bay

    I'd go blue mate... I've got an RB 182 and I'm looking at doing this in the future. Blue hoses in mine would probably look a bit crap though, as the shade of blue would be way off. Never had a shiny engine bay so I think it's something I'll definitely do in the future.

    Little Engine Bay Clean Up

    Looks epic mate. Really tidy! Someone sprayed my inlets with black heat resistant paint. So looks better than standard metal... When I get a bit of spare time I'll probably give this a go!

    GW 200 pulling off a driveway on Lillington Road, Leamington Spa this morning.

    The 'What MPG Do You Get?' Thread

    First week of owning my RB FF 182, I've averaged approx 34mpg. I drive it fairly steady with the odd burst... This week has been about 75% town driving, 10% A-Roads and 15% motorway. Last tank (from previous owner) averaged at 36.6mpg, he did about 80% motorway, 15% A-Roads and 5% town driving.

    Little Engine Bay Clean Up

    I like it mate! However, as said above, how the hell did you get your inlets to look like that! Guide needed IMO. *HINT* ;)
