    Coil Light + EML on 182

    182 Reluctant Starting?

    Hi Guys, Looking for some advice as I'm out of ideas.. I've got a BG 204 182 that sometimes really doesn't want to start... Sometimes it'll turn over and over and over trying to 'catch'... It almost catches but never quite enough.. However you press the gas and it always catches straight away...

    Very Heavy Steering?

    Hi Guys, My 182 seems to have very heavy steering? More so than it feels like it should have on the factory wheels? Furthermore, it doesn't turn smoothly? Its hard to describe, but as you turn the wheel the resistance comes and goes?! Any ideas?! The power steering fluid looks a bit murky but...

    Decent Sprayers/Bodywork in Mansfield/Nottingham Area...

    As titled really! Looking at getting the sills and edges of arches resprayed (or at least touched up a bit) as they are bubbling.. There's a guy I know that does it in his own time for fun.. But I'm a bit dubious letting him loose... Then again, payment is the cost of the materials and a few...

    Revert MK1 Ph3 to Ph2/1

    Hi guys, Probably a bit of a noobish question, but I have a PH3 (facelifted) MK1 Clio, and just wondering, to make the front end look like the older pre facelifted style, is it as simple as changing the front lights, bonnet and bumper? Or are the parts not simply interchangeable... Most...

    Clio MK1 1.4 - Excessive Rolling Noise

    Hi guys, Apologies if my descriptions are a bit vague, but its difficult to describe a sound over the internet! Anyhow, I've been aware that the front passenger wheel bearing is a bit worn (or possibly the CV), as it the wheel has a very light 'grind' to it when its turned when its jacked...

    Williams Wheels Width...

    Hi all, This is probably quite a dumb question, but I'm a newbie, so be gentle please :-) I've just been offered some geniune Williams Wheels for cheap from a friend...
