Actually the AA guy did give you the correct diagnosis, he said injector 4. The injector order is 1-4 from right to left because it starts from the gearbox side. So your injector order looking at the engine bay will be 4-3-2-1, 4 being the far left and 1 being on the far right

Great video guys, stripped out my mk1 focus a little while back and it does make a massive difference

Great stuff, i did the same with my 172 cup, game changed. Got the suspension set up properly after it was all stripped as well, big difference.

Guys That Drive That stuff needed replacing anyway on mine, showing its age a bit. So I got VMAXX coilovers which are considered average but great on a budget. It's about as good as the OEM set up but u get the benefit of adjustability of course. Had it sat at 40mm all round which was perfect, almost ripped my splitter off a couple of times like.

Guys have you heard of road and race channel? They are doing a series on tracking a 182. Collaboration time I think!!!!

Great vid lads. My 182 is currently getting all the belts done and a service, hopefully get it back for the weekend so I can continue stripping it. Only have the rear seats out at the moment.

Looking good! Can’t wait to shed some weight from mine in the coming months

What an awesome garage!!

Great video chaps - love the cup - coming from owner of HT53FCP

Cylinder closes to the timing belt in a Reno is Cylinder 4. Cylinder 1 is at the clutch side of the engine. Scan tool was right with which cylinder had the dead injector it just the way Reno number their cylinders that was the problem at first :)

It was injector 4 that the injector was on. The aa guy told you they were the opposite round. Cyl 1 is on the right on these engines and cyl 4 is on the left, you found out in the end tho

Good stuff guys, keep it up! Get some bucket seats in there asap! The front seats weigh a crap load, from memory mine were 30kg each (although mine were full fat leather/alcantara ones). There is also lots sound deadening under the roof liner and front carpets...(horrible/messy job to remove though!)

The Cup doesn't have sound deadening under the carpets - it's not like a normal 172. So that's a messy job saved. Also, the Cup seats don't have air bags - the standard seats are pretty light as far as standard seats go. Bucket seats will be a massive improvement to stop you moving around though :) Keep it up! :)

Why is the gearbox tighter?!

@GuysThatDrive

3 жыл бұрын

We replaced the old dog bone mount which was worn with a poly bushed one, reduces a lot of the movement of the gearbox and tightens up the shift feel nicely. Well worth doing if you have one of these

Well I was the 172nd person to hit thatlike button feel privaliged

If one's gone rest will follow pronto. While it's stripped do all of them. No brainer.

To be honest that"s interesting all the UK guys killed the clio RS with modifications and optimisations for the track... So in the coming years we will be NOT able to found some good 172 or 182 clios in good condition. Are you killing the market, then the clios 2 rs will be really expensive in the futur...

stevenpayne81 not a big job at all really, just do the test we did with the cardboard to find out which injector is bad. We got the injector for about 35 quid from euro car parts. Whole thing might take you about 30mins, an hour max. 4 bolts to take the injector cover off then pull the injectors out and check them with that method. 👍
