Hi all,
I was cursing along at 50mph when all of a sudden an engine light came on the dash, i haved checked the oil and coolant and ran the OSD on the cars display and no faults were present just - - - - , has anyone else ran into this before?
Hi Guys
I infected with the Trophy-virus since the T came out. As you know buying a T was impossible in Germany.
So since I purchased my full fat and cup packed 182 in 2008 with 15.000miles on the clock I was looking
for a proper T-Sachs-Suspension. I bought one in December 2013 and sent it...

Am getting fault code P0105........"Manifold Absolute Pressure / Barometric Pressure Circuit.
Does this suggest I need a replacement MAP sensor? Thanks.
EDIT.....sorry, forget about this. Jut had a look at the sensor and found it to be disconnected!
No idea how this could have happened..
Went out for a blat today and noticed my little display that tells you the temp/time/radio info wasn't working (blank screen) then noticed the radio remote on the steering column was dead too. Radio/CD working fine, everything else on the car working fine. Fuses checked all OK; took off the...
I've managed to source Yoki 195/50R15 for £62.30+ each, now I believe this to be a good price is there any others I brands I should consider before shelling out?
Hi guys, title says it all. It's only a thought in the pipeline as I've just stumbled on what looks like a bargain at snetterton, £49 for the day, 15 may. Thing is, my car is absolutely standard, and I don't plan on modding, but I just want to see what the trophy can do in a safe environment. I...

Renaultsport Clio 182 TROPHY No.49/500
I have come to the decision that after two and a half years it is time to sell my pride and joy and move up a step to a megane RS 250.
I have owned the car for two and half years now and it has been...
Hi, wondering if anyone can give me a definate answer to this please;
Engine OFF - Battery at 12.5v Battery is fine.
Engine ON - Battery at 14.4v Alternator fine.
Electrics on (lights etc) or cold start - Revs drop and stalls, or drops to 300rpm lights dimm and battery crashes to 11v
but if I...
Anyone going to swap their tyres next month? I'm tempted for peice of mind although i didnt have too much bother last winter.
Do normal clio steelys fit the T btw?
Apologies for bringing this up again but the recent spate of comments on suspension has prompted me to post.
As I see it there are three options for replacing Trophy rear dampers:
a) 182 Cup dampers (£65ish)
b) Renault/Sachs Trophy-specific dampers (£115ish)
c) Koni adjustable dampers...
Hi, I have owned a Cup packed 182 for over 4 years now, determined to keep it as long as possible.
Always kind of wished for the Trophy set up so I have just invested in a full set of Trophy dampers.
I was wondering what you guys could recommend to get the set up correct. Lots of advice already...

well i say at it again,even though this is my first experience of some rather questionable service standards.
I took my T to a local Renualt dealer for pure convenience on my part i must add, just to finish off the last parts of a service.
on returning to pick up the T and with paperwork and...
Well even after nearly 6 years of ownership this little pocket rocket still surprises me.
I know how quick it is on a B road, but in a straight line i always thought it slightly underpowered to take on the great and good of Germany's finest but boy was I wrong.
100 octane racing fuel on board...
Just got myself a Trophy which has the Mark fish springs and koni rear shocks. Have played around with the settings on the shocks and as recommended elsewhere on here have set the rears at 1 and a quarter off full soft and the fronts at 22 clicks. I do a lot of road miles and am finding the...
Got woken up this morning to my Clios alarm going on off ever 5sec or so. Only the sounder and no indicator flashing.
Open and closed on key then was ok.
Anyone else had this happen or know what's been set off on alarm circuit to do this?
Well after a day with a MR2 forum group at Trouqe of the devil it would appear I've come up alittle shy :(
Never mind I had a feeling 182 was going to be abit illusive. Just for comparison has anyone else been dynoed recently and feel like sharing?
Due to a change in personal circumstances I cannot make this.
Williams Clio have organised a trackday at Angelsey on the GP Circuit via Circuit Days and my space cost me £170 but I am open to SENSIBLE offers.
Thanks :)
Nice to meet you Luke 335 at Silverstone last night..
Glad you were treating George Ks old Khumos with respect they deserve ;-)
How was your vibration? Find the problem?
You were going fairly slowly when I eased past you going into Vale.. sorry about that!
This was 200Cs first and trial...
I spotted T300PHY parked up outside Karting Nord campsite, at the Le Mans Classic this weekend. Saw it on two days, Sat/Sun I think? Could've been Fri/Sat.
How did you find the race/event? It was my first time at the Classic, (been to the main 24 hr race about 7 times before.) and I absolutely...
An interesting tyre review in this month's EVO (as well as a 20th birthday special on the Clio sports, with the Williams preferred).
The tyre review caught my eye because it featured (an evolution of) a tyre which a few years ago highlighted to me the importance of tyres and the effect they can...
Spoke to Mark yesterday as i'm keen to purchase some of his stuff in the next couple of months.
Whilst i was on the phone i thought it would be best to ask about a group buy - he seemed to think that 10% off would be ok for 10 confirmed orders. But im sure we could get something for 5 as well...
Track time at French Car Show Rockingham is now officially limited. This year we are
again running on the BTCC Full International Circuit which is Europe’s Fastest Track!
We also offer track time cheaper than events at Castle Combe, Silverstone, Mallory Park with prices from only £16.50 to...
My 200 with Cup chassis. It's Pearl White btw - went for the Black/White combo. Like it a lot :D
Totally different to the T. More comfortable, not as fast top end (but it's only on 800 miles so not loosened up yet).
The cornering however is unbelievable. Feels different to a Trophy but does...
