Hello all! My mate has just bought a 182 from, I assume a pikey, because it's pretty rats... But it's for the track so he's not too bothered. He's found on inspection, two breather pipes that have been blocked off for some unknown reason. Could anyone tell me what they're for so I can either...

I'm in need of some help with my kill switch for my Hill sprint 172. At the moment I have the positive from the battery going into the kill switch then into a junction box in the engine bay for the engine electric. The problem is when you turn off the kill switch it kills the ignition but the...

Hi guys - I am new here. I bought my 2004 Clio 182 a few weeks back. It is a 69k miles car with FRSH. I got it cheap with a duff alternator. Replaced alternator and got it going, happy days. I drove the car for the first time properly a week after. I got about 3 miles then the aux belt failed...

I've got a 55 reg clio 182 thats done 87k Its got quite a loud and fask knocking coming from the top of the engine. A mechanic has had a look and taken the rocker cover off but cannot see any visual damage. Ive recently had dephaser pulley and belt done. Anyone got any ideas?

My 182 is feeling like a mount has worn or so I think. When I'm coming to a stop or when braking hard I get a feeling through the pedals sort of a vibration . Another thing I've noticed is particularly when facing down hill on my drive reverse can be hard to select. Is this a worn engine mount...

Hi all, Bit of an urgent one. I was driving along, the dash went Christmas tree and the car cut out. Symptoms, on ignition the engine warning light flashes and the rear wiper moves. Stop, serve and esp lights are all illuminated. The car will crank but not fire. I'd guess it's UCH related as...

Hey All, Looking for cat-back exhaust systems for my 182 in Aussie - I've had a trawl through the fourms, but thought I'd find out what the general consensus is (aware that loudness etc differs from driver to driver) regarding the different options. I've basically narrowed it down to either a...

What will I need to do and what problems am i likely to encounter? Drivers side...

Gave the Ph1 a good clean today and it's come up really nicely. Still needs a good clay and polish but it's getting there. Restored the headlights as they were looking a bit yellow too. Spent some time under the bonnet as I like the engine bay to be tidy. In 2 minds whether to sell it...

Hello guys. A fast question, what do i need to swap the 1.8 rsi into the 1.4 ph3 mk1? I mean subframe, gearbox,etc?

Hi, I'm new to the forum and would like to ask for some advice from you guys! To start with I know very little about cars and all the workings under the bonnet etc...anyway I decided to buy a new car, went to the Renault dealership (just to have a look) and took a Clio RS200 out for a test drive...

Ok so today my clio 172 went funny 140 mile round trip no issues then stopped to drop something off at a shop and boom. Running funny. Very similar if not the same to when an injector went and was running on 3 cylinders. This isn't my concern. My initial instinct was plugs leads and coil pack so...

Looking at a 182 and engine light is on, told it's because it has full decay. Will a code come up on the test for this?

So, I'm new to the Clio scene - only bought the car on 25th May. I had the issue of the knocking on acceleration from the manifold, so thought I'd change all the mounts after a quick look see revealed that the lower gearbox mount was perishing. Well, it seems its a good job I chose to do ALL of...

Took the car a run today and noticed it a bit "chappy" Took it around the block and on the bypass, sitting at 70-80mph steady heard a pop and bit of smoke from engine and now sounds as if it's running on 3?? Any clues to fault?

Just a general info enquiry here. Worked on a 1.4 the other day (my first engine other than a 1.2 or 2.0) and was just thinking about the 1.6. I'm looking to upgrade to a nicer but still relatively cheap Clio for a daily. I've seen a nice 30k 1.6 on sale for £1600 and I'm curious. I don't see...

Anyone know where I can get new engine mounts for a Williams apart from Renault? Or is it a Renault-only jobbie Thanks

Hey, So I have a Clio 197 (08 plate) with only 48,000 miles and fsh. Last night the engine decided to kill itself and put a whole in the side of the block and sump. Not good, and certainly not expected with a car that has been fully maintained and has fairly low miles. The AA towed me to a...
