battery

Bit of a boring thread (sorry) Is this the right battery to fit a FF 182 ? http://www.maxautopartsltd.co.uk/car/s4001-063-bosch-silver-car-battery-12v-44ah-17-1-62.php (I know this is available on eurocarparts although they cannot post to my location :( ) Any advice would be greatly...

hi, wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction (or if anyone new a part number) for where to get the fuse that is on the end of the battery cable that sits on sits and fixes to the battery. cheers

Where can I get a replacement positive battery terminal? The whole thing, connectors and red plastic cover and all? Mines manky and doesn't tighten properly and the covers broken.

What's needed? And how do I do it? Any help appreciated, Thanks

Hi, Not sure if i had this in the right place: I have recently had a sub installed which i know if im using it with the engine off drains the battery very fast. But it will go flat within 5 minutes of music with the engine off. Are there any larger/more powerful/ longer lasting batteries i could...

Hello, I have recently had a sub installed which i know if im using it with the engine off drains the battery very fast. But it will go flat within 5 minutes of music with the engine off. Are there any larger/more powerful/ longer lasting batteries i could replace mine with? Any help please?

Hi, i have a clio 182 and need to relocate the battery to the boot for more space in the front for a bigger turbo induction setup. Ive been to the scrap yard today and got a good length of cable from a BMW. Where my cable connects currently in the clio there is a fuse of some kind and both...

Hi all, I have recently bought a 182 cup and after a couple of weeks it has developed a fault where the battery discharges. I have replaced the battery which made no differance. I have taken out every fuse one by one in an attempt to find the faulty circit, this helped because it used to...

i was driving when my stop light and battery light came on. I keeped going and got home but every thing went mad on the dash lights coming on and going speedo and all other gauges going up and down and not working. The engine was not making any abnormall noise any ideas.

Hi there, would it be safe to use an odyssey battery on my daily? Or would the continued drain affect it? Many thanks Joe

Hi all Battery has just passed away, RIP lol. I was just wondering if I need to stick to a 063? I can get a Bosch S4 008 for pretty much free. Cheers

I've had my car standing for a long while away from home so as expected, it's totally dead. It's a 2006 Dynamique on a keycard and that doesn't work either, assumedly as no signal from the car. I tried the emergency key in the passenger door and for some reason it won't turn either way??? Does...

What do you use? Any good? They run down far too quick.

Hey Failed MOT on various things but it boils down to the battery being insecure. So i had Adam sell me a Clamp. Have i fitted it correctly??? Thanks!

Morning all. I've been reading into and looking at different battery cables. I've been told that for the length I want (to relocate my battery behind the passenger seat) I need 10.1mm cable (25mm sq core) which is capable of 170 amps. At the minute I've got an 8mm cable which I'm assuming has...

Hi hope someone can help, in the process of moving my battery on my track car. Just come to sort out the battery terminal and notice this (see picture below) I am wondering if this is needed or can I get rid of it? As far as I am aware it if linked to my starter motor cable? Any help much...

I thought it would be a good idea to disconnect the car battery before going on holiday for 2 weeks. I came back today and the door lock is probably seized. It won't turn at all. I am going to spray WD40 tonight but I am not very optimistic... So with the battery disconnected I am stuck. Any...

I am thinking of ordering this battery: http://www.rapidonline.com/electrical-power/12v-18ah-gel-battery-ev-range-haze-18-1124?utm_source=AffWin&utm_medium=Affiliate&awc=1799_1407562110_d629c07504e754862be1029e5464286f Does anybody know if I would need to replace the wiring terminals? If so...

Hello to you all. I have chance to buy really well maintained clio 1.6 petrol auto with only 66k miles. There's one problem- battery goes flat overnight or maybe over little longer. With engine off, I found ~500mAh drain on + wire going to fuse box in engine bay, nothing on other one + going in...

Basically Ive took the engine and gearbox out and I am tidying up the bay and doing a overhaul, I want to relocate the ECU and Fusebox, I have seen some people have done this and move it into the Bulkhead but after looking and looking I cant see how exactly it is done. Can the Loom to the ECU...

Hi Guys Anyone know where I can get a Battery Cover and New Rail Guard looking for a black one but cant seem to find them anywhere. I've had a look on ebay but nothing. All for a 182 Clio Cheers

Where or how do i go about getting one? The ones ive seen i think people have made but then i found a few threads (dated years ago!) saying that they are available to buy. Im on a slow progress of tidying up my Clio with having a few compliments about been a nice example, plus ive always wanted...

In the middle of removing the gearbox to send it off for a refurb. I've noticed that there is a chunk snapped off the battery tray. Can these be bought new? Or does anyone have one for sale? Also, there is a bolt on this tray that goes into the suspension turret. This bolt snapped whilst trying...

Hi guys, Looking at getting a stainless battery cover for my 182 as I think it will tidy the engine bay up a hell of a lot! However, when looking I can't seem to find anywhere to get them from, can anyone help me out and point me in the right direction? Thanks, Joe

Had new battery and tdc sensor in past few months. Last week or so car been turning over and sounds like it's close to starting but won't quite catch. If I keep key turned long enough it will start or if I keep trying to start it it'll eventually work, just a bit embarrassing when someone's...

I was just wondering if anyone could briefly explain how to do this. I also have a starter button with separate switches for fuel pump and ignition. I guess this is just off the barrel? are there any wiring diagrams for this part of the car. Cheers

Probably the stupidest question you've ever heard. The central locking on my 52 plate Clio is controlled by a button above the radio, there is also the remote fob and a key hole on the passenger door. There are however no knobs, dials, latches etc to lock the doors (well drivers door at least)...

Hello all, My name is Jon and I’m looking for some advice please :) I have recently developed a battery drain issue on my Clio 182. The car isn't in daily use at the moment as I use a van for work and sometimes it isn't used from one weekend to the next. The problem started about 3 weeks...

For a ph2 172 please Basically mines too long so I can't fit the standard CAF in, so what is the correct size? Thanks
