service cost?

[Craig]

just phoned renault bolton to see how much the 24k would be and they came back
£257. how much roughly should it cost cause im not paying that.

 

[black kro]

Aim for HALF what Main Dealer quotes @ specialist

As long as VAT registered garage and use genuine parts can go anywhere to keep warranty

 

[Craig]

do rs tuning do services?

 

[RSTuning]

Yes sort of. We are seperate to the garage side(ex renault service point) but at the same location.

Cheers

Paul

how much would it cost for the 24k service, ive tried ringing the number i cant get through!

 

[Fred@BTM]

we're down in Stone Staffs if thats any good to you

 

[Lagerlout]

How much for a 36k fred? And do you reckon it's worth changing to fully synth?

 

[Fred@BTM]

we use elf 5W40 mate

you've got a 172 ff IIRC??

 

[Lagerlout]

Yes mate. 2003 53 172 Fat Fucker. lol.

You guys are only 30 mins down the road from me. At least Yoz's house is lol. I'm on 33k so 36 is just round the corner.

2nd service cost me less than 100 quid including the parts , but i used a local garage that i've always used for work on my car .

Can recommend Yozz my ph-shed's having a little TLC done there now, nice chapps, they really know their shizz which makes a change from my "local garages" lol
Worth it just to see some of the motors in the work shop

i too have found renault service prices to be crazy - just phoning round re my girlfriend's 1.2 16v clio campus sport. £220 for first service!! Mental. Anyone know of a specialist in Sussex??

lol i payed less than that for my big service, cam belt, aux belt everything.

 

[wantmygti]

Thanks Dick!!! And this is only a 1.2 to add insult. Crazy prices.

 

[Rob 182]

If you want to stay with the main dealers, try Arnold Clarke in Warrington. I found them to be the cheapest and the most helpful in the area when I had my 182.

Cheers Rob but someone down south in Sussex would be better!!

Ok LOTS and LOTS of TLC!!! Wasn't about to hijack his thread rambling about my shed...
Sounds like it was previously serviced by retarded primates from what Yozz said :dapprove:

Really missing it now tho... I cant bring myself to drive my girlfriends f,f,f,f,fiesta

On a Sport?

 

[Fred@BTM]

i haven't worked on it yet rich, but the engine, box, subframe, steering rack etc etc are all out of the car

 

[RichMcc]

Cool Yozz said I could come up and tart up my engine a bit while its out but its a long drive

I think you get what you pay for, my 172 got serviced by gimps before I bought it, they mashed up the accessory fittings, bent a tensioner arm 45 degrees or something, think some of the bolts were wrong, cracked the accessory mount.... lucky it didn't go boom and take the whole engine out with it...

It pays to get it done by people that know what their doing! If they aint changed a cam or aux on an RS before, dont let them touch it!!!

 

[Fred@BTM]

what do you want tarting up?

 

[dick]

1.2 16v same as what reno quoted on the guy.

 

[RichMcc]

what do you want tarting up?

Well it had some nasty rusty bits on the block by the oil filter so I cleaned em up and repainted em in black but Yozz said I could do the bits I missed. Im not too bothered I doubt it will be seen anyway.

 

[Fred@BTM]

if i get time i'll give the block a spray
