Shows how much cheaper renault specialist are and how robbing stealers are, this is what i got quoted:
Change one broken spring on my cup - Renault £160
Full set of eibachi springs fitted, 2 new rear shocks fitted, oil change and sports cat fitted - Mendal motors £195
Ill let the figures do...
Mendal motors 01642 602055
Mickelton services 01833 640311
Pm Hutchie on here, his family own mickleton services, and i seem to recall someone paying £400 to mendal motors for a cam belt change with a water pump to, search mendal motors and its in one of the topics, hope that helps
Micketon garage, barnard castle, Hutchie on here
Mendal Motors in thornaby, lots of good reviews for both, had quite a bit done at mendal the other week, really good service and brilliant price, they know there stuff
Both garages are renault specialists
Im going to do them on an exchange basis but im going to get a local renault specialist to take them off, going to get them done off ap-developments aka stan* on here
Hi guys,
Going to get inlets on my car this week hopefully and was just wondering how long does it generally take to remove them and refit them? this will be done by a garage as i dont have a clue where to start and i dont wanna mess around with stuff i dont know about :D oh and my car is a cup...
Look at this cup on ebay :D read the bit at the bottom which says rip in steering wheel where someone was holding on for dear life lol then look at the steering wheel pic, looks like someone has chewed it not ripped it, must be the fastest cup out there for someone to be doing that! he also says...
Front part, quite near where the cat first joins from the engine manifold, can push it out the way but keeps knocking after a short while, is there bolts to tighten this?
The heat shield near my cat is rattling like hell and it is really getting on my nerves to say it politely, has anyone removed it completely or got any tips on how to stop it :D
Many thanks guys
Sounds like the heatshield, get it on the ramps and knock the heatshield out of the way if its close to the cat, its a common problem, if its not the heat shield then its the engine mounts, another common problem unfortunately
Jesus £1040!! you can it done at a renault specialist, plenty on here for about £400, i got mine done at a renault garage for just over £500 and thats from a stealer, your having your pants pulled down with that price, time for a trip to the UK ;)
I ordered some shock absorbers last week for my car so they could be fitted today, however renault forgot to order them so Pete only got them thursday, he knew i needed them for today so he very very kindly shipped them out nexy day delivery to where i was getting my car fixed, no extra charge...
Hi guys,
Searched a few previous threads and they seems to be a manual floating about for the 172 cup, if anyone has this saved id would be much appreciated if they could email a copy :D
Thanks in advance
So now more bhp gains just better lower down power, imo (dont know alot about this lol) i would of thought it would be better and bhp to have both done rather than one, however im sure ktec have an answer to why they only do lower
Quite strange on how ktec only offer lower, maybe they do offer both but when i asked this bex replied and just said lower, maybe a typo or they only do offer lower inlets, anyone had inlets from ktec?
