    Cyberghost? But as above, if your just trying to hide general usage, there is really very little point in using a VPN.

    182 Dangerous Steering and some knocking too!

    Wouldn't explain the knocking, but tyres and pressures? I've got Cooksports on with standard shocks and they do bang a bit on poor roads!

    hazards flash if window switch held up

    UCH is the body control unit... Its the black box above the passengers left foot.. And you don't want to even think about the cost of replacing! :/ Unlikely needs that though

    hazards flash if window switch held up

    Wow thats funky! Ages ago (and I mean ages) a few people fitted custom made global close kits to their car.. Wonder if this is a side effect? Just looked on the forum and previously its been found to be a UCH fault when its gotten wet? Checked that?

    Clunk when dry steering

    Check for play in the tie roads, then checking for play in the wishbones and the condition of the bushes? Mine didn't make the noise until I changed the wishbone and disturbed the bush! Saw a thread 100% the same as this a while back, turned out the guy had a broken front spring (was moving as...

    Coil Light + EML on 182

    Hi Guys, I know this has been asked plenty of times before, but hoping for some fresh ideas maybe! Car (182) keeps going into LIMP mode, with the coil light and the EML on. My code reader is picking up 'P0120 - Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch "A" Circuit'. I've removed the white plug...

    Clunk when dry steering

    Had this after changing a wishbone. Greased up the wishbone ARB bush and it went away. Best way to describe the noise I've heard is 'flicking an empty biscuit tin' - sound about right?

    Help Identify Loud Donk?

    They don't 'silly' lower it... I wasn't 100% sold on the idea of lowering my 182 on cooksports but the springs needed changing anyway... Ride height is literally 20mm lower, and the wheels don't go into the arches at all, its literally spot on! Could not think of a better upgrade for 144 quid...

    clio knocking

    Mine was like that too.. Changed the top mount (drivers) and a massive difference! Kangoo van part fits perfectly and is half the price

    Help Identify Loud Donk?

    Just a thought - has anyone got an exploded diagram (or something similar) of how the front wishbone attaches? Just wondering if I've done something stupid like put a washer in the wrong place!

    Help Identify Loud Donk?

    Changed the dampers for new genuine ones at the same time as fitting the Cooksports and pure motorsport solid top mounts.. @GCC drop links? I didn't think these cars had any as the ARB clamps directly onto the bottom of the wishbone? Unless its possible that thats moving and causing the noise...

    Help Identify Loud Donk?

    Renault Wolverhampton in the traders section is your best bet for Renault parts.. Otherwise try looking at the for sales for some second hand springs like Cooksports or Eibach.. A full set will probably be the same as 1 spring from renault (plus you should ideally replace anything suspension...

    Help Identify Loud Donk?

    I'm having the exact same problem - exactly the same noise and only started since i changed the wishbone.. Drivers side though. Springs are 3 month old cooksports... guys is there anything else that could be causing it? As @andy_con said, it sounds like a clunk as something moves one way, then...

    Very Heavy Steering?

    Cheers @Tommyd22 .. hopefully it won't need a new pump, haven't noticed any strange noises but I'll get someone to whilst I have my head under the bonnet I think! And @Bear Head they we're the first thing I checked, 33psi front 30psi rear.. If only life we're that easy! :-)

    Strange Geo!

    Hi Guys, Recently fitted Pure Motorsport Solid top mounts, Cooksports and new dampers all round to my 182 (non cup packed). Also had a new track rod arm fitted. Had it laser aligned, and its even though the toe is -0.8 on both sides, its pulling left.. Braking/accelerating/dawdling makes...

    Very Heavy Steering?

    Don't worry about it being late, its still an issue I'm having! It had belts and dephaser done less than 6 months ago.. And Mick @ Diamond didn't notice any issues... I've learnt to live with it now to be honest!

    Cheers Out of interest, how did you work out the pump was FUBAR'd?

    Quick Steering - Car Trying To Stall

    Hi Guys, Bit strange this, not sure if its just me! I've found lately that when I steer from lock to lock quickly whilst moving slowly with the clutch down (trying get up a very small section of dropped kerb on a busy main road without smacking a tyre!), the car tries to stall, with the RPM...

    My Snappy re trimmed Clio Trophy steering wheel

    That looks amazing! I've got a leather retrimmed one in mine but no idea who did it - was on the car when I got it! How much did that set you back dare I ask?

    How long roughly do rear brakes last?

    I've just changed the rear discs + pads on mine... My car came with every recipient under the sun, no mention of rear pads/discs... Discs literally broke with a gentle tap of the hammer to remove them from the spindle, pads down to the metal... Not bad for 138K! Might have been done at some...

    Problem(s) Diagnosis

    Hot start issue is commonly to do with TDC sensor.. or rather the wiring on the sensor connector... Renault released a new design sensor with a over engineering new plug and the new plug wiring harness - you chop the old one off and wire the new one on.. I had the same hot start issue as you...

    iPhone 6/6+ Cases!

    This one for me! http://uk.cygnett.com/iPhone?product_id=803 Properly rate Cygnett cases - had one on my 5 for 2 years, still looked nearly brand new when I sold it one a few weeks ago, and I'm really not gentle with my phone!
