    2 x Titaniums @ EFI Parts today

    Just wondered if it was anyone on here? Spoke briefly to a chap outside, not sure if he owned one? Only found Chris once I got into the industrial estate as I spotted these outside!

    Small black cable into side of battery?

    Hi, Just swapped my old battery out and left this unplugged as the new battery has a black cover over it and I'm not sure this cover should be removed. What is it for and should I connect it up? Car went on a lengthy drive after to ensure the battery was fully charged and I've had no lights...

    Titanium 182 this afternoon - St Walburgas Rd Blackpool

    Looked very clean! CS sticker on rear window. I was in the Titanium 182 with black Turini's that was alongside you around the roundabout until the BMW driver in front of me forgot where his accelerator was.

    Where is RSTuner airbag module locked to?

    A friend has an RSTuner with the airbag module. I have an RSTuner without the airbag module. I'm putting some standard seats back into my Clio so need to re-enable the airbags for the seats. We disabled my airbags using his laptop & RSTuner software. Will I be able to just hook his RST...

    Unipart Pro S 400 5w40

    I wasn't prepared to pay £10 for next day delivery for oil so hunted around for Fuchs Titan SuperSyn locally. Unipart were the only place that stocked it. Went down and it's labelled up as Unipart Pro S400 so I challenged the guy and he said its the Fuchs. I bought it anyway and checked online...

    Wire stopping glovebox from opening

    About time I fixed this as it happened pre-FCS. Basically I run my iPod lead from the rear of the headunit through into the glovebox. It's got stuck fast where the catch holds the glovebox closed. I've tried to prise open the glovebox slightly and insert a screwdriver to move the wire but its...

    'New style' Renault top mounts knocking

    Is there a fix for this? Only had them fitted a week ago and the drivers one seemed to be knocking. Had a quick look under the bonnet, was trying to move the engine (to exclude worn engine mounts from the equation) and my attention was drawn to the knocking of the drivers strut top. It appears...

    Door Transplant

    Today or tomorrow (when I can get another set of hands to help) I need to swap a door on my 182 that was damaged a few weeks ago when it was broken into. I've read a few threads that mention about needing some specialist tools to remove the pins etc that hold the door on. Can it be done...

    CSI are on the way to inspect my Clio..

    I am absolutely RAGING: Attempted break-in at 5am this morning. Alarm scared them off however as I was so comatosed I never saw the damage therefore never gave chase.

    BG 182, Titanium 182 and 172 Cup

    We finished dropping my Titanium on some KW's on Saturday, and as the cars were clean and the sun was shining it would have been rude not to grab some photee's.. There were taken using an iPhone 5, and I'm quite impressed with the quality of them tbh. :)

    Solid Top Mounts + Coilovers at the same time?

    Myself and two friends are going to be putting some GAZ GHA coilovers on my car in a few weeks, along with some Pure Motorsport solid top mounts & front strut brace. What is the best way to attack this? I thought get all 4 wheels off the floor, do the coilovers first, then drop it back down to...

    Setting up coilovers

    I'm going to be purchasing some coilovers for my Clio at the beginning of next month and fitting them myself with the help of a friend. I want a fairly low drop if possible (40mm-45mm) however I don't want to destroy the ride completely. I'm getting the GAZ/KTR setup which also has damping...

    New brakes squealing (Brembo HC & M1144's)

    Just had some Brembo HC's and Mintex M1144's fitted and after 200 miles, they are deafening me and pedestrians when I brake from 30MPH. The squeal only really kicks in under 20MPH, and gets progressively louder the longer I keep my foot on the brake. If the cars sat for an hour they won't make...

    Butchered Milltek decat on removal?

    Had a mate do some pre-MOT work on the Clio and now my decat now looks like this: I'm pretty sure I now need to find a new/secondhand Milltek decat pipe, but wanted to make sure I'm not throwing it away if it can be re-fitted without blowing. :mad:

    Chirp when going over bumps/potholes

    Well, my Clio's MOT is rapidly approaching so this is an expense I can do without right now, today I've spent over £250 on parts for it just to prep it for the MOT. Anyway... I noticed earlier that the car is making a 'chirp' noise when I drive over bumps/potholes or down bumpy roads. Took the...

    Tidying up Xenon units... options?

    One of my xenon units is very hazy so I was looking at the most cost-effective way of either tidying it up or replacing it. I have been doing some reading on CS and seen some 3M Headlight Restoration kits I could have a go at. However, the unit also has condensation inside of it when the...

    RB 172 Blackpool CSL 12:30 today

    Just now spotted this with Turinis, initially thought it was a 182 until it went past and saw it only had a single exit yozza. Sure I saw a CS sticker in the front window?

    Cylinder 1 misfire & difficulties starting occasionally?

    Quick question, Is getting a temporary cylinder one misfire (engine management light flashes) the starting signs of the crank position sensor going? Had this for a while and today its been difficult starting so I'm beginning to think it could be related. Engine will fire into life just to cut...

    Factory Fitted Tyres About To Be Removed!

    Well, I was a little taken back by this.. Two of the PES's on my Clio are getting to the limit so going to have them replaced before winter really sets in. Took them to my usual tyre guy and he informed me they haven't done bad for an 8 year old set of tyres. "%$&£ off!" was my reply... Then...

    How long does it take a 182 to de-ice windows?

    Just seen MarkR's media thread with a photo of his frozen Clio. It got me wondering how long it takes for the 182's to de-ice the windscreen? This will be my first winter with the Clio. Mine is running a decatted Milltek so not the noisiest of systems, but my neighbours tell me it is still...

    'Rain sensing wipers' infuriating me!

    My 182 is the first car I've had with 'Rain Sensing Wipers' and they drive me insane. When its only raining lightly, the intermittant wipe is not often enough for my liking so I have to keep clicking the stalk up then down/down then up to clear the screen. Cue some normal UK rain for which a...

    My 182 avec Bryera's 172 Cup.

    Gave the cars a clean and get some photos. We then decided to go down the lanes to dirty them again. :S Anyway bryera's photos: I only got one photo worth posting, trying out a HDR app on my iPhone: And finally, some noise:

    Blackpool Illuminations Charity Run (Feeler Thread)

    Another forum I frequent (ExtremeBHP) was going to organise an Illuminations convoy and I thought there would be no better opportunity to raise some money for a charity. In Blackpool there is a charity known as "Donna's Dream House" which basically provides funds for children with terminal...

    Strange knocking noise

    This is a bit weird, the car did it earlier but seems to have stopped doing it now. I need some bushes on my suspension as I get clunks when maneovering slowly, it could be related as the knock feels/sounds the same but its doing it under different circumstances. Basically I was driving...
