My 172 I bought last June has started to develop this issue over the last few weeks. When driving I noticed that there was sloshing coming from the passenger side of the car under braking, accelerating etc. Further examination showed that the sill was full with water. It was getting in when...

Just changed rear pads on my 2010 Clio 200. Put in Oem Brembos no problem at all. Only issue now is that the pedal won't firm up at all. You can clearly see the piston on both calipers coming out but then going back in and leaving slack in the caliper which is causing it to rock slightly. We've...

Hi guys, need new pads on the rear of my 200, where is the best place to buy now? I used a guy on here for my 182 but can't seem to find him anymore. Also, any recommendations? Currently have the standard Renault pads and discs on the rear but running DS2500 on the front. Many thanks.

Finally had my new wheels and tyres delivered today. Loving the look and stance compared to the standard 200 wheels. Very very happy. Just a few quick photos.

Recently bought a 200 and not a huge fan of the standard wheels. Thinking about a set of Ultraleggera's. The 17 inch wheels come in either a 7.5 width with a 40 et or a 8 inch with a 55 et. I'm assuming the best option would be the 8 inch wheel, but is that wider than standard? If so, what...

Since selling my 182 last year, I've always regretted it and wished I'd kept it. Despite being the cheapest car I've ever owned, it was also the most fun. I recently decided that I was going to sell my Octavia vRS and get something more fun and a little more track friendly. I had my heart set...

I have been after a new set of tyres for my 182 for a few weeks now and rather than buy new, I was hoping to land on a set of decent wheels with tyres included. Finally got a set of gloss black Pro Race 1.2's fitted that came with part worn Yokohama ad08r's. Ive just been out and after sorting...

Need four new tyres and will either be getting a set of PS3's or Eagle Asymmetric 2's. Tempted by the Michelin at the moment but a little confused which one to buy. Tyre leader have 3 listed, one is the 83v rated and the others are the 87w XL. I've done loads of searching and found that some...

Just had a call from by local Renault dealer (Bristol Street Motors, Exeter). They have offered me a service plan for the next 3 years servicing. I'm always sceptical about these sorts of things but quite intriguiged by this as it seems quite cheap. I've been quoted a total of £339 over the...

Since buying my 182 in Oct, I've noticed that when braking hard from high speed, I can hear a grating noise from the brakes. I posted a thread about it and was told it's probably a characteristic of having drilled and grooved discs. However, I've also noticed a humming/whirring noise when...

As above, can anyone recommend a specialist near Exeter. Need a few bits doing and try and avoid dealers as had far too many bad experiences. Thanks.

Just been reading up and realised that I can fit an aux input into the standard stereo of the 182. I have the 'tuner list' stereo fitted so was wondering if the following would be ok; http://bit.ly/1bASzBS Most of the threads I found were pretty old, so was wondering if this was the best...

Recently bought a 182 in amazing condition. When test driving it, I could hear quite a loud noise when braking from high speed. I assumed it was the corrosion on the inside of the front discs and was fully prepared to replace them if it didn't wear off. Well, the discs look much better but I...

Just bought a 182, excellent condition but the front discs and pads might need doing soon. I just sold an Impreza Sti which I fitted the Godspeed grooved discs and kevlar pads too. They were fantastic and well rated in the Subaru forum. Was wondering if anyone used them on here and if there were...

Hi guys, just got back from a 400 mile round trip having picked up my first ever Renault. I bought a 54 plate 2 owner 182 in silver. It has both cup packs and is in absolutely outstanding condition. No swirl marks or cobwebbing (not been re sprayed) and only has a slight ding on one of the rear...
