I'm going to view a mk3 1.2 tce tomorrow, being sold by a trader and the cambelt is due. He's willing to do it at a reduced labour price in order to get the sale obviously, my question is how much should I expect to pay for the belt and water pump at an independent garage? Just so I have an idea...
That's interesting I didn't know they did a factory handsfree. Anyway my friends car doesn't have it and I tested it and normal stereo audio came out of it
I know i'm resurrecting an old thread, but this also bugged me for a while. I fitted an AUX to my friends dynamique, and there was a third factory tweeter within the curved piece of trim between the climate control and the back of the cup holders, which is what this cable is for. I felt obliged...
I'm currently looking for a mk3 and even the nice examples like a dynamique s never seem to have digital climate control, which i think looks a lot smarter.
I'm aware of people retrofitting the digital climate control in mk2's providing the car had manual air con. Does anyone know if this has...
yeah the 1.2 TCE is the one to go for but harder to find on my budget, i didn't realise the front arches were wider so thanks for that! Any particular problem areas? Things similar to the ecu's and the sun roofs on mk 2's.
The title says it all really. I'm looking at getting a Mk3 1.4 Dunamique or 1.2 TCE Dynamique S.
Any general advice/things to look out for would be greatly appreciated!

Quick update- The insure decided it was a category B, which is absolute crap. I could of put it back on the road for about £600. There was no bodywork damage or structural damage, just suspension and other things that were remove and replace jobs. I'm pretty gutted
I wasn't concentrating for a split second, the wheel caught the curb and blew out. I wasn't sure this happened at the time but the car behind me saw it happen and told me afterwards. Anyway the car veered off, it was on a gradual left turn so i was already steering left, the car mounted the...
I think i haven't worded my original post very well. I want to get as much as i can to help offset the cost of the options i have put on the car at my expense. Of course im not expecting the insurer to pay for them. I have insured a standard dynamique and thats what i expect to get a settlement...
I understand why people are sceptical of what im saying but every time i've checked with the insurer. They state no modifications unless fitted by the vehicles manufacture. I even explained with the person from the insurer, ive got a renault wheel that ive had retrimmed by a man in crewe and...
I'm glad you mentioned the distance from me, cars around where i live seem to be overpriced so that may work in my favour. When my dads car was written off the insurer took of a lot of the value because it was missing 2 of its 10 services, so you never know my insurer may value a FSH.
The only modifications they said they were bothered about were the seats and steering wheel but i got renault to fit them so they weren't classed as mods, this was all ok'd with the insurer. I'm considering buying it back because of the speakers, dab aerial etc cost that would all mount up with...
Ok so i wrote my car off yesterday, really sad considering the amount of work id done to it.
Does anyone have any tips on getting as much from the insurer as i can? I know they'll just say here's one on autotrader for say £900, way less than i paid for the car/spent on the car. The thing is my...
Ok so i'm looking at some used 182 xenon's online, with the ballast pack, how simple is it to install them?
I've fitted new headlights before so know whats involved with taking of the bumper.
Are the connector sockets on the xenon's the same as on the standard headlamp? would they plug into...
It's definitely the second link you want, that seller is the trader on here i was referring too, and the shape shown in their listing will fit your floor exactly.
The first links listing is for the mk3 i think.
The drivers mat from the second like has two velcro strips and doesnt move at all, in...
The title says it all really, how do you remove the button, is it a case of removing the plastic level cover?
I wasn't to swap it for a chromed button from a newer model.
I found this yesterday morning, an original Renault parcel shelf with integrated speakers.
http://www.therenaultshop.co.uk/product/Rear_Shelf_with_integrated_speaker_kit_7711223604
I was wondering if anyone else had ever seen it or knew if the speakers in it were any good. Also how would it of...
Hi mate, great project the car looks great! I'm really jealous
I'm thinking about putting in an RS interior, i've read that the drivers seat can be awkward? Something to do with the airbag or pretensioners causing the air bag light to come on.
Did you have any of these issues?
Cheers, Ian
