The black roof on the 5 is just a wrap!

Welcome to CS, great first car!

The paint on my 5 is absurdly thin, chips like nobody’s business. I doubt the alpines any different.

The clutches lasted 242,000 miles…!

Welcome to CS 👏🏼

Since that was posted I went on to do another 80,000 miles before the TCM was replaced, then after that another 100,000 miles after that before the clutches got replaced. So basically I don’t think that was anything to really worry about 🤣 just a characteristic of the car.

Mine was a few years ago now, but probably budget £1k - £1.5k maybe? I had mine done at Renault as was one of the first to have it done, more places are equipped to code them these days.

TCM dude. I’d put money on it.

The 5 has this but if I lock it on the fob it disables that until the next time it auto locks.

I’ve found the best theft deterrent is the diamond on the front 🤣🤣

Depends where it is next year….

I only missed this year…!

they do naff all on the rears mine did over 100k

@GtirHil I ended up replacing the clutch last week at 214,880 miles. Sash’s New Learner Car thread It’s solved my ‘Clutch 2 Torque Error’ code even though on initial inspection the friction plates don’t look excessively worn but something wasn’t happy inside the pack.

Never!! I think I’m going to be buried in it when my time comes.
