Gutted(n) Airbag light was a matter of time as its intermittent from the dreaded wiring under the seats, guessing they moved the seat as its been off all year! Strange one with the wheel bearing play as I've replaced both rear Discs and pads with Brembo ones which people recommend on here...

Here goes, had a bit of a mare today fitting these on my 182 😟 One side went on OK BUT when I torqued the hub nut up to 175nm I heard a crack and on undoing the nut again I was met by this, oops! Now onto the other side! Everything well OK Until the pads went on and I tried to tap the...

... Other than Michelins! because I'm poor at the mo!! I've ran Rainsports and ZV7's and found them pretty good, should I stick with them? Any offers or anyone recommend the best price for them too please?? Ta.

Quicky guys, Rear o/s brake light out, took the light out changed the bulb however it will not twist and lock into place, any ideas why?

Quick one Guys. I noticed today whilst on the motorway every time I put my foot down the revs shot up and I got a short burst of speed then they came back down again within seconds! I thought I had a turbo for a sec!! It did this in every gear apart from 1st really. Any idea the most...

Evening all, I need to replace my knob (oh er!) as it's looking tatty and the leather has come away. I looked at a genuine one but refuse to pay £100+ for it and came across this...

Evening all, Baffling me this one. My passenger headlight has stopped working since I changed the sidelight bulbs as they had gone but now the passenger headlight has gave up. I've checked the bulb and that works fine - I threw it in the drivers side and it was working fine. I have checked...

Hi all, Came to start the 182 today after it had been sat for a week previously working fine no issues and it won't start. It turns over but that's it. Battery is not old and I even gave it a charge to make sure and battery is 100% good. Vid below. Any ideas? Rac are coming out to...

Afternoon guys n gals I've just noticed my first oil leak! Yep been quite lucky!! Question is where is the most likely place it's coming from? Just thought I'd ask before I start to get down and dirty with it. I noticed a few drips on the drive but I reckon the undertray has caught a bit...

Quick boring one guys but anyone recommend any? I know I should get the official ones etc etc but really struggling to justify 65 squid! Tia.

Afternoon all, Can anybody shed any light on this one as I couldn't understand why the tester mentioned this. I thought rear brakes (discs) were self adjusting? I could understand if it were drums but on his machine the rears were showing 150 or something compared to other cars over 200, said...

Hi all, Slightly embarrassing one this, I was testing a few bits and did a wiper high speed test and it's not switched it off even after disconnecting clip and switching the engine off! It's constantly on full speed!! any ideas how turn the commend off?? TIA.

Anyone know a decent cable to replace it with. Seat won't tilt forward and I've replaced the cable with a bike gear/brake wire a few times over the last year but it always fails, so annoying. Ta.

Any ideas on how to get it off? No problem with 3 of them but the drivers side front is just slipping off.

Changed front pads today and afterwards my foot goes to the floor :( now I've done pads a few times and never had this issue. I realise 9/10 it's air in the system but not sure that's the issue tbh. I did crack open the bleed nipples whilst compressing the piston back - only drained less than...

... I can get the airbag light off, any suggestions? I've got a CLIP however I can't install the software for some reason so any other way to get it off? It's intermittent when the seats slide back etc so it will be the wiring under, got some resistors knocked about but not 100% where they...

Here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/402318658089?ul_noapp=true I've been after a clip for a while but i see it comes with only the 16pin obd lead so no 12pin Renault lead or CD software. Can the 12pin and software be got separately? couldn't find it after a quick search.

Quicky lads, I am changing both cables tomorrow - car is currently on axle stands after i took out the one that had snapped. I have an idea of what's involved however when I took the knackered one off it wouldn't slide through the hole as the the nipple end (oh er) was obviously too big. I...

Evening all. Here goes. I am getting a like metallic like screech sound on full lock and for the first time today I heard the same type of noise when I started the the car up then it went virtually straight away. It's a piercing noise that sounds bloody awful, I did notice the other month -...

Best place to get a set from for my 182 please lads? One sides gone on mine and finally decided to sort them out. Checked RPD and one side is oos and heard ECP ones don't fit. Cheers.

Well annoyed (n) Took the top dash off to get at the bulbs replaced them with some blue leds, swapped the orange filter film out replaced with some white film connected back up and nothing :( I checked the leds compared to the ones I took out and they seem to be missing some contacts where...

Thoughts lads? I'm thinking waterpump perhaps? can't see any pipes leaking etc. I've been under the car today and filmed that, sorry about the low quality. Having a mare at the moment with the motor and MOT is tomorrow! Will they even test it like this? can drive it but...

Car is due the dreaded 72k service shortly and been quoted £865 from a specialist and to be honest that's not what I wanted to hear! I am thinking about it, love the 182 to bits but not sure about paying that, I expected £600 or £700 MAX! It does include all belts/dephaser/water pump (leaking...

Hi lads, last resort you boys! Not happy, thought it would be a piece of pish and away I go. Here goes. I have changed a broken injector - car ran fine before this, made sure they are all seated correctly etc connected the fuel rail back up and the bloody thing won't start up :( I've tried...

What a shi**er of a day (n) had nothing but car trouble today, here is the latest balls up. I took the fuel rail guard to gain better access to the oil filter in order to change the oil. I was super careful or so I thought and I only realised something was amiss when I went to start the car...

Anyone know what this could be from? I noticed some puddles on the tarmac but not sure the cause of them. I've also noticed the coolant dropping rapidly. I can't see any leaks pouring out from the engine bay although the exhaust leak is a lot.

Air bag light is on, does sometimes go off but more often than not comes on, got MOT in a few weeks so need to sort it out. I also have the SERV light on but that I think is down to the rain sensor being unattached - new windscreen fitted but wrong type! I turned off the SERV light but it does...

Quicky lads. I was wondering - I have no idea If it's possible but can you strip down a 182 Xenon headlight in order to basically swap out the bits n bobs into a new lens?? I have a working Xenon which is all good inside but the lens is cracked and was wondering If I could transfer all the...

Evening all. I've been quoted £360 to get it sorted by a bodyshop near me , take 3 days apparently! and £120 by a mobile who have a decent rep, is that about right? It is not me who will be paying, person who went into the car - his fault wants to settle away from insurance but I doubt he...

Advice please all. Mrs was involved in a low speed collision in Tesco car park, other drivers fault on a mobile phone failing to stop at a junction going staight into the passenger front side. She took all his details. Rang my insurance and they tell me it could be wrote off! bit shocked tbh...
