oh no i didnt mean carb, i meant the air intake valve at the back where the air box finally attaches to!

it came on again today, has been raining most of the day.... Ive noticed that even when this light isnt on, the idle sits aroun 1500-2000rpm. had a diagnostic on it last friday. The O2 sensor came out ok as did the voltage reading for the coil...the mechanic was stumped. He reset everything...

Yep it does it everytime I start even when its warm after a 20min journey. I remember seeing the O2 sensor when they fitted the exhaust, is it something that needs seeing to urgently? If so...how much does it cost? Thanks

cheers guys. its also revving up to 3k when i start it, and it takes around 2mins to return to normal, would this be the coil pack aswell?

Hello. This morning i turned on my 182 and drove away. Then i noticed a light on the dash in the middle under the petrol light. It was a rectangle with wiggly likes in it from left to right and same orange as the petrol light. The engine had very limited power (limited to under 3000 revs). I...

Just been into a couple of garages who have both had it up on a ramp and said theres nothing wrong with the dogbone mount at the bottom of the engine. Im desperate to get this fixed now as its really pi**ing me off, close to taking it to Reno (must be bad!) The only thing i can think now is...

Ive had the top mount replaced this morning and its noticably different but the noise is still there in first. Had the AA out and they had a check of wheels/driveshaft and couldnt see anything. Yep the gearstick moved alot during accelleration, the mechanic suggested getting the bottom mount...

yeah they are the standard ones. been to a garage today to get a 2nd opinion and they think its one of the arms at the bottom of the engine near the exhaust gasket and also the main one to the left of the engine by the cam belt. Going to get it done next week hopefully. Parts are £100 from...

Hi there. Ive just had my Cam Belt, Aux belt and water filter changed. I test drove it after and got a funny sound in low revs when i floored it in 1st. Sounded like the air box had been left off, but only at low revs and when i floored it. Anyway, took it back to the mechanic and he tightened...

Someone posted the phase 1 workshop manual, had a bit of a google and found the newer one: http://www.renaultalpineownersclub.com/ ... /3676A.pdf Had a flick through and found the gear change indicator light that is a common topic on here, flashes 400rpm before 'maximum speed'

im looking into it too. If you find somewhere, ask them if theyll do a discount for 2 cars (i need 3 done) and maybe we could get a group(ish) discount. Steve

Ive had this problem for a while-When its wet and my flatmate is in the passenger seat, the xenons often switch on/off intermittently, and this morning they switched off completely leaving me with only fog lights. Any ideas what might me causing this,or where exaclty to look for the fault? It...

The service book says to change the spark plugs around 75k miles, ive only done 55k, would anyone recommend changing them before the recommended time?

Hi guys, service time and wanted to know what spark plugs to use for the service? What are the standard ones and can you recommend ay upgrades and if its worth actually getting these? Thanks

had it up on a ramp and sure enough its leaking real bad on the right rear. Reno want £110 for the pair of rears and can get them fitted for £30 so not too painful

thanks guys. going to the garage today. will let you know

Hi there, first post on here and hope you can help. Ive got a 2003 Clio Sport and have owned it for 10 months now. Its a stab in the dark really as im not sure how best to describe this, but when I turn the car left it feels like the back end flips out and the car seems to be really unstable...
