That oil will be fine, make sure its 5w40w.

SOunds like the one that parks where I work in Narbourough. No idea who it is, Ive asked before and got mo response.

Which engine is it?

You dont need to replace the whole driveshaft if its not caused any damage. Just need a gaitor repair kit which includes the proper clips and grease. Its about £20.

Get the cambelt, aux belt and tensioners done asap as if it hasnt been done your car will be a ticking time bomb. Ive had mine for 2 years now and love it as much when I first got it. The exhaust fell off and I had to replace the steering rack mounts but other than that its been a solid little...

I hacked into the french renault press website.
