    Rear caliper slider bolts

    Ahh that explains why it wouldn't appear in a search. Are you positive they're all compatible then? The compatibility check on these don't match but I take it with a pinch of salt...

    Rear caliper slider bolts

    Struggling to find these listed anywhere, can anyone point me in the right direction? Front ones are no issue to find but I'm told the pins in the rear of mine are worn. To the point the rear brakes can make a bit of a racket if you pulse the pedal when coming to a standstill.

    Would it be easier if people copy and pasted the list and just kept it updated as they go?

    Just before people forget there's going to be a separate thread then wonder why they might have missed it.

    Trophy wanted

    Why so fussed about the miles, out of curiosity?

    ARB Outer Brackets P/N 546141405R- source?

    Was in touch with K-tec who wanted £24 for one off a car they were breaking. :rolleyes: Ended up getting these- https://www.onlinecarparts.co.uk/metalcaucho-8538068.html They're based on the older part number. I ordered 2 and they even managed to look different to each other which didn't fill...

    ARB Outer Brackets P/N 546141405R- source?

    From everything I've heard it's the first number and Renault now no longer supply both. That second number does appear on some of the sites Phil mentioned though.

    Local Renault dealer has said the same now.

    I've got the girl at ktec saying the number you've given me was superceded by the first number I mentioned.

    ARB Outer Brackets P/N 546141405R- source?

    I've asked the garage to enquire, I shall report back one way or another and hopefully spread the good word. Have found a few threads now online with a similar story but no end result better than getting one from a breaker.

    Thanks, I just hope there's availability on it in the UK.

    I have literally just found that number here at number 10 after extensive googling of the original part number-...

    This is a copy and paste job from the cliosport forum, in a bit of a bind at the minute. One of mine is broken and the garage and RPD are having trouble sourcing these, seems Renault no longer supply. What other options are there given it's just a cheap bracket? Assume other folk have had this...

    Swapping an R26 for a 182 Trophy?

    I don't agree with that necessarily. You can get a decent one for less than £6k that's just on higher miles. Mine must still be worth about £5k on 108k miles and there's no way it isn't 'a decent one'.

    Group Buy - Brand New Original Eibach Trophy Front Springs

    I'm in if it's all guaranteed they're the correct spec with confirmation. On the plastic tubing front, I did this in 2017 with stuff I bought off amazon and it's easy enough with hot water and penetrating oil. Will link to the stuff when I get a chance.

    Group Buy - Brand New Original Eibach Trophy Front Springs

    I could well be interested. In the interests of fairness though, given we're not talking about loads of these, would it be fairer to limit it to one set per member? Obviously it's entirely up to you but given they're officially out of production it would help more owners.

    Aux belt change question

    I asked the same question almost a year ago and took the advice of the specialist I use (SWR) and opted to change it at the 3 years. It'll come as a kit with the tensioner from renault.

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    Anyone refusing paypal over a transaction as big as this is an awkward shit at best. I wouldn't be touching that personally.

    Why on earth would they stop producing these?

    What’s the current market trend ?

    I think looking at pretty much any car in terms of a real investment is the wrong way to go about things. In general, I'd say it's the sort of people who won't truly appreciate the cars for what they are that think like that though. Like seeing an F40 that's only done 2k miles and such like.

    What’s the current market trend ?

    Take comfort in knowing that with a limited number in the first place they can only go up again as the years roll on.

    Ah ok. 9 years NCB, no points and a good post code should hopefully fair better!

    Greenlight - No more agreed valuations

    How much was it if you don't mind? My renewal with Aviva is only £280 but I wouldn't mind paying a bit more for an agreed value policy.

    Greenlight - No more agreed valuations

    These days? You make it sound like they're at the bottom of their depreciation! As a percentage I'd say they're worth significantly more than a regular 182, all else being equal. Mine was £5k on over 70k miles 4 years ago. It's now on over 100k miles and I'd suspect I'd get £5k again for it...
