Land Rover
Hi everybody just joined up and bought a Clio 182 Cup
The car is known on here, D11 CUP
I thought l would post my experience with the car on here, starting with the jobs to do on it.
The car drives very well indeed, it’s been set up professionally and you can tell straightaway.
My missus is using it at the moment as we are waiting for a new Up GTi to be delivered.
She reported the stereo as “unfathomable” so the first job was to refit the Renault one, which came with the car.
This was an easy task although the aerial connector was broken so l had to fit a new one of those.
One of the rear speakers is not working so that’s a job for the weekend, although it sounds pretty good anyway, l think the speakers have been upgraded.
I also had a look at the squeaky wiper mechanism and that looks to be the motor not located properly....there’s a little locating peg that looks like it is not in position.
The N/S scuttle plastic is broken and does not sit flat at the end so l have ordered a good used one and will do the wipers when that part arrives.
I have ordered a clutch cable as it’s pretty stiff, after removing it from the clutch end you can hardly move the cable inside.
Plus l am not sure l like the gear shift lever that is fitted, the original came with the car so it may go back on, although the missus said it is “fine”.
The aircon is not working and l am going to get that looked at. On all the eight 172/182 l looked at before buying this one there was only one with working aircon, but it will be nice to get it working.
