Agree about the standard suspension,i dont think in would of won evo car of the year on the gaz.Im sure ps4's start in 17" ?
I dont want to waste money on it with something that isnt essential. The standard suspension feels great and really compfy after years of being low and bumpy.
Thanks again to you and others. Helped me save a lot of cash and learn something new at the same time.All.that DIY payed off!
I get your point, but It has had many miles and memories made in it already over the 9 years i have owned it. 1k miles a month commute to then leave stood in a public car park is more of a shame to me.Shame to see the car not doing alot of mileage, mine does at least 120 miles a day and has 144k still going strong! Don't need the DCi :wink:
You realised just how easy it is to service it now then, always do my own now and just keep all receipts and take pics during the work to show it was done.. just fitted a GOLD magnetic sump plug to mine
Ever need a hand/tools with anything just gimme a shout on FB or something
Good service for 12+ year old shocks.Rear shocks were well and truly gone!
Tbf they only covered around 30k as i put coilovers on when it was 4 years old. Put the standard supension back on last year but rear shocks were no good. Front and all springs are perfect though.Good service for 12+ year old shocks.
I paid £80. The bumper is shocking, looks like it was originally an inferno. I will try and sell it on but im keeing the spoiler and splitter. I might take the grill etc off the bumper and store that away too.Was the front bumper cheap?
What a nightmare getting the fuel rail cover off, promising to hear that you should be able to source and replace the damaged stud. Love the fact you are still driving this, I've taken so much inspiration from your thread @Austin-182 for my own BG 182 ?
Thanks Gav, i still say the same that i will never sell this. I have had it 10 years now!
Getting the gaurd off was one of the worst things i have ever done on it. Took me 2 full hours to do but when it finally came off i felt so glad. Yea, hopefully i will be able to get a replacement stud, but even if not, its just an inlet i will need to find which shouldnt be too difficult.
Thanks for this mate. Appreciatedit just unscrews off with a spanner. Genuine part number is 8200584570 . Then its just a flanged M8 Nut, if you want gen its 7703033155 but that will be now be a 13mm head.

I had to replace both of mine, as they literally just disappeared soon after each other!!
Quick question Austin, are you still running the OEM Cup springs? I have Eibach Sportlines fitted at the moment but considering putting the Cup springs back in for sake of comfort.
I can't believe that you still have this! Pretty f*cking cool.
I remember back in the day it was yours and Dan's RB that made me want to get my 182. Since then I've had the 182 for 4 years and the 200 for six years!
