Got a 182 that develops a misfire but only in the rain. Car hit a puddle a few nights ago and started to misfire but its now fine when its dry but the second it gets wet out, the car starts to mis. Plugs and leads have been changed so the only thing I can think is the post cat lambda throwing...

No I sold that a few years ago to a guy who modded it then sold it back to another guy half a mile from my house. pains me to see how nice it looks now

however, I had the same problem and it got worse, to the point where mine clunked every time I let off the throttle. Turned out it the splined sleeve on the o/s drive shaft. Check under the car in that area to see if you can see any powdered rust thrown outwards or on the joint itself. P.S its...

If they are the correct tyre size for the wheel then it will be fine. When you go up to 195 the sidewall may bulge over slightly but not to drastically. Hope this helps Kyle

Love the car Tom, just read the whole thread. The new wheels look absolutly amazing. Nice to see someone buck the trend slightly and pay off big time. :)

I only say that because some poor chap (i cant remeber his name or find the thread) on here put non gen bulbs in and his car caught fire on his drive and wrote it off. Didnt say it to be a **** or scare the op, just trying to be helpful

I quite like it tbf, followed one in my mrs's ibiza and it left me for dead (it is only a 1.4 copa lol). Dont know quite why there is so much hate.

Hope you used genuine xenon bulbs... if not, flames could ensue

New wheels and spacers would set it off nicely imo

Its the yaw and angle sensor. To determine if the car is rolling i'd imagine. £340inc vat from Renault

Could be either or, could also be an idle control valve

457

now thats cool!

Renault is part of the motor group i work for. Cost + 10% on everything :D

Awesome thanks, that saves me looking

Bassically im covering at a renault dealer and wanna get the part number of turini centre caps but i need the reg of a car that had them fitted from standard I.E a trophy or 172 cup. Any help would be great

I do it all the time no matter if im in the renault master van, the wifes ibiza or the clio. I find some cars dont pick up revs quick enough though to be able to properly rev match. I also like the noise you get from a little blip of the throttle, down a cog and let it run, nice little pop.

Touche lol

Didnt know that. but its a bit gay lol

Really?? i thought all the 182's did it? If i get in mine and drive from cold, it holds back then suddenly leaps into life. doesnt matter what gear or speed, it jerks a little then its fine. Almost like the engine management is warming up

When cold they idle lumpier than school chocolate pudding when cold the rev limiter is set at 6850 and when warm it revs to 7250 (ish) There is also a shift light on the limit

This has happened to mine. Did the renault spline sleeve work?

I always let my 182 warm up. It idles high then drops down, thats when i set off

as above, top job on the wheels

yeah its me, still got it. It currently off the road as the driveshaft span its splines. :( I only have about 2 pm's in my inbox which is wierd. I'll pay for membership again and hopefully that sorts it

Nice, you've done well there. The location is nice to :p

got a longer vid? It sort of sounds like a tappet

oh yeah, didnt even notice the solid white line haha
