'bout 5K

fitting is extra cost (about £60) - also budget for new mounts as 2 of mine were knackered - about £19 each...

yep - the standard renault system is not the best - both rear silencers had rusted through & were blowing. the Janspeed is stainless steel & comes with a lifetime guarantee - also it's lots lighter than the standard system (some 8 Kilograms) - regarding fitting, the fit is first rate as I got...

Yep 5W-40 synthetic in mine.

I had the Janspeed/K-Tec exhaust fitted today at their place in Dorset (cat back with the silenced centre pipe), so not the slightly cheaper super-sports version. The fit & quality is excellent, no adjustment required after test drive etc... Just thought I'd share my thoughts: I didn't want...

cheers guys I think on balance, i will stick to the exhaust for the time being. I like the 5K kick as it gives the car much of its character and wouldn't want it lessened at the mo'. BTW, they do offer a pre & post remap dyno run as part of the price so any gains would be evident on paper at...

yep, bonnet switch not pushed down enough when bonnet shut - fixed with some plastic glue & rubber packer :) ...

my 54 plate 182 cup seems to have developed an alarm problem: when i lock the car/prime alarm, i'm getting the continuous beep sound instead of the correct 4 short beeps - the doors, bonnet & boot are all shut, so i'm guessing it's a fault... #-o any ideas much appreciated :?

thanks for the suggestions... i found a place just outside of bristol called paris retro, who specialise in citroen, renault & peugeot - i was impressed with their knowledge over the phone & they're about an hour's drive away, so it's booked in for cam & aux belts in a couple of weeks time...

hello i bought an 05 182 cup a few weeks ago & it's now due it's cambelt change. can anyone suggest a good independent renault garage in the gloucestershire area that could carry this out (renault cheltenham want over £850 for the privilage) i have found a couple online (one in bristol &...
