Hi - I sold the car and removed the sub. Ive no reason to believe there would have been a problem though. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

Hi, can anyone help me get a radio code please. I think the number you need is V122 The other number is 8200367500T but I think the other one is the security code. Help really appreciated :)

As an update I managed to use the fuse panel and the blue signal wire works from the head unit. The sub powers on and off with the head unit. The fuse panel fuse slot is a switched live. It's the rear wiper I think. Still no RCA cable so I can't test it properly yet. I soldered the add a...

The reason I wanted to use the fuse box was; 1) it's easier 2) I saw a post on another forum where the poster had done this and had no issue 3) the amp would have two 10amp fuses in line protecting the amp 4) 150w is not going to happen in my car as I just don't listen to music that loud 5) the...

Thanks - I've never really done a job like this before. I've now installed the sub, run all wiring in a loom to the glovebox area. I don't have an RCA cable so cannot finish the job. I'm still keen to use the fuse box as it's right there and I can't easily see a grommet to get though. The...

Based on this thread I now have a kenwood unit ready to fit. I'm intending to connect to the fuse panel rather than battery. Any tips on where to run the RCA cable so it won't interfere with the power cable which will run passenger side. I will place it under the passenger seat. I'm also...

I had my car on CLIP today and checked over. They can find no fault and advise the draw is about right. We now think me leaving my car unlocked is causing the problem. I had no idea that would cause a higher drain. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

EDIT - the draw is 0.4amp (400ma)

I've had my father in law round and with the multimeter we've identified there is a draw of 2.6amp. We've disconnected the alternator and also the starter connection from the battery positive. All doors are closed and the 5amp interior fuse is removed also. We're unsure on where to go from...

Thanks for the replys so far guys. Really appreciated. I cleaned up the earth from the battery already but will look for the starter earth next. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

My car is a third car and due to these problems seeing even less use. I had a problem where occasionally the starter would not fire. It was sporadic but very annoying. Sometime I would be stranded waiting for AA then the car would just start. I had battery replaced by AA for a new unit...

Could you please post your finding. I've a similar issue which was initially resolved by replacing the pink ignition relay which was causing the starter motor to fail to engage. You could test this by swapping the two pink relays in the fuse box area. However that did not fix my problem as my...

I've got an intermittent problem with my immobiliser. Sometimes the car starts no Issues. Sometimes it is dead. When I click the car locked sometimes the car beeps at me but I'm not sure what that means. I managed to get it to start today after locking and unlocking as much as possible but...

Thanks - the eBay add clearly said 182 and Trophy so they must have screwed up. Car is now immobilised on ramps outside my garage and I can't close the door tonight now. :( joy.

Hi - I'm trying to fit bushes to the dogbone mount but have found the bolt at the gearbox end (smaller bush) the OE bolt is too thick for the collar I've now noticed the kit states for Renault Clio Williams and 16v. It's PFF60-206K Car is now undriveable as I destroyed the old bush. Any...

Hi - I noticed when using cruise control when I indicate left its dropping out. I managed to replicate this problem a couple of times. Any ideas how I can fix this? Thanks

Awesome. Thanks for that.

Bounce! I need one of these rings. They are a bit prices at £51.83 delivered. The ECP ones (£10) do not fit cup packed cars as they are too thin Anyone else sell something which works?

I'm glad you posted that as it saves me the bother. I have done just the above and it really cost less than half of what I sold my trophy for. Any extra weight is not noticeable, the toys are handy and i think the car is faster on my local roads.

That looks just like my refurb.

I sold Trophy151 with 38k on the clock last year and it started a price rise. I don't regret it (much) as at this end of the spectrum the costs involved to make a potential return of perhaps 5k are just not worth it. It was a great car but my lightly sensibly modified 182 is almost the same...

Actually it's 10-50. I confused it with the Mobil 1 stuff for an M3 :)

Thanks. - I will probably do that but I'm genuinely interested in how I could kill an engine? I thought I might lose some power and have to be more gentle on the car during warm up cycles. Is there really other risks with this?

Hi - I have a 182 running 5 - 40 Millers nanotech oil and I plan on doing a service. I have 6L of Millers 10 - 60 on a shelf which I used to run in a Porsche. I don't do many track days as I don't have time. I do lots of motorway work and rural driving. Not much town work. I'd like to use...

I had similar requirements to you and bought a slightly modified 182 for 2.5k It still needed some work but selling chavy parts (imo) helps the cost. If your willing to do some spannering yourself it's a great prospect. Parts are cheap or peanuts for second hand. :) There is a huge difference...

Thanks - I ordered two from GSF and they arrived yesterday. Different amount of teeth on both [emoji45] How annoying!

I've had a Trophy and now have a 182 cup spec. I didn't think there would be much of a difference as let's be honest neither is a tech heavy car but you really don't notice any downsides to the 182 but I do appreciate the slightly nicer interior.

Thanks - the pads are fine. One sensor had iron filings on the top which I cleared off but I could not get access to the bottom as the screw rounded off :( The rings were really looking very bad but I didn't remove the disk to inspect further. I'm hoping a cleanup and new rings will fix it as...
