I have a humming noise coming from my car, sounding like a shot wheel bearing - humming more when turning right, indicating a left bearing. I changed both of my fronts and after picking it up from the garage this evening, it's still there, not so loud though. I jacked the car up before it went...
I set the newly refurbed dampers to (what I thought was) 22 clicks. It was as stiff as anything, handled well but felt extremely unstable on the motorway and there was literally no body roll.
I've turned them down a few times and there's a slight bit of body roll now and it feels better...

Hi all
I am changing my clock spring on my trophy as the cruise connector had come off. Undone the torx bolt but now can't get the wheel off. Anybody got any idea tried tapping with hammer but nothing went on easy enough a few days ago but not coming off now.
Thanks

Hi all
I yesterday bought 7MAT's 182 Trophy yesterday. My other half wants the standard wheel bag on for safety (airbag).

I am worried about connecting it incorrectly and then the...
Hi everyone. I recently purchased #151 from a very friendly Robert Evans from this forum. It need a few service issues addressed but I'm happy and it drives extremely well. I have been using the search function but I still have a few questions.
1) Brakes pads are 85% worn acording to the MOT...

It is with much regret that I offer for sale this beautiful Clio Trophy which my wife has owned since 2006 and is the second owner.

i wonder how many people got theirs changed by Renault? i heard of one being changed as late as october 2011.
this one is dated 2008 so they must have continued production for a while after the 182 ceased production.
Morning guys,
I'm currently breaking my Trophy after it was involved in an accident a couple of months ago. Most of the exciting bits have gone (or sold pending collection), but I thought I'd list what I currently have for sale.
It had covered 91k, so unless stated, that's how many miles the...

Had the Trophy for a few weeks now, but haven't shown it off yet so I thought I may as well start a thread!
I had a 106 Rallye that was one of the best condition S2s around, so getting rid of it was quite emotional! I'd grown really attached to its no-nonsense approach to delivering its drive...
Can somebody please report back on the following:
Driving straight ahead at 60+ MPH using small movements of the wheel around the centre is there much "feel/feedback"? I have had lots of work done on curing a wandering/tramlining problem which is now sorted and the handling/steering feel is now...
Hi All,
I would really like some help with this if anybody is willing. My car has had its acoustic valve and the attached cold air feed removed (leaving the hole in the side of the box) I am trying to figure out what I need to get it all back (inc acoustic valve) to standard.
So far I know...
When accelerating hard above 5k revs in third or fourth there's a really bad vibration from the whole front end of the car.:(
The vibration is not present when out of gear.
Anyone had this before? I'm guessing the driveshaft are kaput?
feck.
After a set of track wheels, anything will do as long as they fit the T. Prefer without tyres if poss as already have those. Can collect around the Dorset area or arrange courier if needed. Cheers
Heres the write up of the detailing session my good friend Olly (Snow Shine) carried out for me. After having him work on my EK9 before and seeing the results along with his various other clients I knew the car was in safe hands. I really can't recommend him enough and if you're on the South...

Thank you ;)
Had the Trophy on track last night and there is a knocking noise from the rear under hard braking, worse when trail braking and lifting a inside wheel. Is it the exhaust hitting, engine mount?
Cheers
Hi Guys,
I was cleaning my inside of my wheels and noticed that the drivers side wheel was covered in grease, when i checked the CV Boot i noticed that the clip holding the rubber boot had broken, so i have temporarily put a cable tie around it for now.
But i was wondering what people...
