Thanks mate, I'll give them a try then.

Hi folks, I've just had to replace the solenoid that forms part of the locking mechanism, and this obviously involves removing some of the plastic trim from the bootlid. The problem is that one of the clips securing he bootlid has gone walkabout and I'm now being subjected to another very...

Just thought I would post my dealings with Renault over this issue...........I contacted Customer Services a few weeks back now as the right thumb grip on my 05 182 was all but hanging off. I spoke to the Customer Services Manager who in all fairness was a nice guy. Basically I used the line...

I was heading out of Wolves around this time mate, so I could well have been one of them!

I'm yet to do mine, but when I do I will be using Autoglym Engine and Machine degreaser agitated over the engine bay with a brush. However before you even start this make sure filter opening, sparks, battery terminals are covered up with a bag/cling film as you will need to carefully hose off...

Parked up on the Crown pub car park about 1.15pm. That really is one fine looking machine! Seem to recall that Walker Renault have a demo model in so could possibly be from there - anyone from here taken it out yet??

Saw you in a queue of traffic near to Wordsley Hospital this morning - didnt see you until quite late as I was pre-occupied with a rather attractive lady driving a Ka in front of me, otherwise I would have flashed! Car looks stunning mate, you must be well chuffed.
