    Possibly buying an RS200, what to look for?

    Been away from the forum for some time, so hi all. I'm looking to buy an RS200 Clio. I have previously had 1 X 172 and 2 X 182s. I have no experience with the RS200 and don't really know what to look for. My questions are as follows. 1, How do I know a car I'm looking at is a 200 and not a late...

    182 Clutch Problems.....Help.

    My car is currently at the dealers with the clutch in bits, I have done 12k miles. I could feel a vibration through the clutch pedal when changing gear, which I have been told is a pressure plate related problem. What is the standard procedure when undertaking warranty work of this nature? A...

    Is This 172 An Import?

    I had a look at my mate's newly bought 172 yesterday. I used to have the same Iceburg 172 as his, mine was an 02 plate, his is a 51 plate. I noticed there were no internal alarm sensors at the top of the "A" posts. Is there someone on here who can cross reference his reg number to find out...

    Phone Upgrade....What's Hot?

    I will be looking to upgrade my Sony Ericsson W810i in the next couple of days. I'm with T-Mobile, and have been on Personal Call tariff for the past 12 years. Would changing to Flext 25 be a better option than my existing tariff?, I would also get a free phone if I change my tariff. So if...

    182 Clutch Cable Change....Help.

    I need to have my clutch cable changed, I called a dealer who said they would need my car for 3 days, in which time they would determine the problem, order in parts and do the job. I'm 100% sure I just need a new clutch cable, so at the end of the month the dealer needs my car for 3 days to do...

    Car Salesman Advice.

    My brother is looking to buy a new car, he has a Titanium 55 plate 182 to part ex. I told him I would have his car off him, I have an Inferno 05 plate 182. Obviously there would be a very slight difference in value between the two cars, which I would pay him cash, so he would bot lose out...

    Vibration Through Clutch Pedal???

    After a 100 mile motorway journey, I can now feel a vibration when I dip the clutch pedal to change gear. The only unusual part of my 100 mile journey was through some deepish standing water around an island, but I can't see this causing the vibration I can now feel. My 182 has covered 9000...

    Renault Technical People (182 Handbook)

    My Brother picked up his new Titanium 182 today. Unfortunately the 182 handbook (thin pamphlet) which accompanies the main clio owners manual is missing. The part number on my book is 82 00 449 459, but this number is not showing up anything on the dealers parts system. Does anyone in the...

    Direct Power To Alpine CDA 9835R H/U

    I'm following on from the thread debating whether or not the 9835R should have a direct power feed. I stand corrected and have decided to rectify my omission of an extra power feed and earth. Therefore, would someone be so kind as to post an idiots guide to rectifying my oversight. I'm a bit...

    182 Sump Plug Warning

    Changed the oil this morning on my 182. To my horror I found the sump plug was only nipped up finger tight from the factory. Bloody French monkeys. Might be worth checking if you have a new car.

    Paint Finish On Struts (182)

    Should the paint finish on my struts look like this? Is this finish due to some sort of sealer or is it bubbled paint, it is soft, I could sink my finger nail into it, and even scratch it off if I wanted. If other 182 owners would take a look at their cars and post a reply I would be most...

    Oil Filter Removal Wrench.

    Anyone who has a 172 or 182 will no doubt know how difficult it is to remove the oil filter. I have bought a set of oil filter wrenches, so hopefully an oil change will be made much easier. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y95/biglee69/392c0e25.jpg...

    182 seatbelt question.

    Will orange seatbelts from a Megane 225 fit a 182. My new inferno 182 is in the country. I was thinking I would like to have orange belts. Would they fit without too much trouble or modification Lee.

    Opinions needed please.

    I have an Arctic Blue 182 with both cup packs. It was registered late June 2004, 04 plate, so its 7 months old and done 4900 miles. Im thinking about trading in and getting another equivalent 182 which will be 05 plate. How much do you think I should pay to swap? This the only figure Im...

    182 Undershield

    Does the 182 have an undershield? My 172 did, and im sure I noticed it before on my 182. Now it is gone. I assume the Renault monkeys forgot to replace it.

    SUTTON PARK UPDATE!!!!

    My now 3 month old 182 had to go back in to dealers to get warranty work done. After my experience with Sutton Park Coventry, there was no way I am ever going back to those ignorant monkeys. So I went back to where I bought the car, Sutton Park Warwick, where they assured me my car would be...
