182 rear airbox mount



I'm assuming they're all the same on 172 or 182. It appears that the cretins either at Renault or ktec didn't see the need to refit this and instead chose to drop it on the floor, leave on their toolbox or whatever. Add this to the front bumper foglight harness being left disconnected and the pins subsequently rotting out due to water ingress which I've also had to repair. Anyway I digress.

There appears to be a mount which would bolt onto the ecu bracket and battery power cable block which would also fix the rear of the airbox in place. I'm told by Renault this isn't listed separately and I'd need an airbox at £130. are they talking s**t? If so can anyone with the Renault parts system post a pic up so I can work out what's missing or alternatively tell me where I can source one? I'm guessing breakers if it genuinely isn't available separate from the airbox.

If this i what i think it is, there is no mount there, cos i wondered the same on mine.

Like a thick rubber o-ring thing at the back right of the air box?
 
yup rubber grommet exactly the same as the front where it's mounted using a bolt. It looks as though there's a small bracket missing that would also hold part of the main batter cable against the ECU bracket which also appears like it should be fixed.

Bump!

I've been having problems with this spart, its lose and when I try and tighten in, the whole metal bracket just bends and then the rubber pops out of the airbox.

Any suggestions?

Cheers!
