Thanks for all your opinions, It was an arse aching issue to get the fronts on, cuz they wouldnt clear the calipers, apparently the first V6 development cars had 300mm discs all round. Had to get a hub extensions, longer bolts & all sorts of stuff. Demon Tweeks did a good job of getting them &...
The car will fit into a single garage, but you gotta be careful about those side pods & be really careful trying to open the door to get out. Ive banged mine a couple of times, which has left a tattly looking mark on the edge of the door. Might also help if your slim & can squeeze out of small...
Right then... Ive got a mk1 v6 & a slightly modded 172 cup, they are totally different experiences, the cup is a HUGE blast across country & on trackdays, but you get out of it & admire it for the fact is is a fast, nice looking clio. The Vee is on another level. From the moment you see it, to...
Welcome,
I use Bridges Renault in Cirencester (outside Swindon), great service & good value (24k service was £220 all in). Not sure about pads, but as said elsewhere, buy them from a specialist & get someone to fit them for you. good luck
Just got my V6 back from ever helpful & professional Renault dealer in Cirencester (Bridges), who carried out the 24k service.
Cost: £240 all in, including a replacement bulb, wiper & pollen filter for the a/c. I asked about service costs for cam belt, plug & gearbox oil, & got the following...
Sorry to hear youve been bashed, hope you get it sorted out soon, damn shame if another vee is off the road. If the worst come to the worst, I do know of a Renault Breaker in Lancs, that have various V6 panels, let me know if you need the number.
Right then, Whos going to Donny on 10/11 Sept, & more specifically, whos going in there in their V6? Im gonna be their, hopefully sporting some new split rims, it would be cool to meet up with others if possible.
Any going from Swindon area that wanna go in convoy (is that sad??)
welcome to the club!
I had the same problem with my alarm, got renault to de sensitise the alarm, that did the trick. With regard the exhaust i got a k-tec stainless back box & a BMC CDA induction kit. Best noise on any car ever!!!!
enjoy the car & get used to the attention
I had similar trouble with the alarm on the my Mk1 V6 (are they the same alarm?). I ended up taking it to the dealer & asking them the de sensitize it. Cost me 1 hours labour, but at least i could sleep & the neighbours didnt hate me anymore :oops:
i need the exige (surprise), the Audi A8 & the M3, anyone got any spares?? i think ive got 3/4 of everything else. I chat the girlie up at the shell station (whos in love with my V6) & she gives me 6 packs everytime, but i never get the ones i need....bummer!
Hi Mate, welcome to the club. Youll find loads of helpful advice on this forum.
With regard to the exhaust, ive got a k-tec as well as an induction kit, i live in Swindon, but travel to Northants regularly, We could always meet up, when it suits, so can listen before you buy. let me know.
Bad news mate.
I suffered the same damage a while ago at low speed in the ice. Hit a kerb, thought i kerbed the wheel but ohh noo....entire front suspension collapsed, broke the wishbone, drive shaft (had to wait 6 weeks for replacment) knackered the steering & spookily enough, the pics i got...
