Which spring has broken? Be more specific about the problem you are having. Bob

Hi Tom. Glad to see you are making a bit of progress with the box saga. Renaults contribution of 80% is quite a good offer I think, especially as you have had the car serviced outside the network. As you are to pay some towards the cost of replacement you will also get a warranty with the...

The log didnt just roll off, it left me! Apparently I snore, although it never wakes me up! Hey, GR, you said in an earlier post that you have a 3 yr RAC warranty. Is your 172 not brand new? I am not being funny, but if you have your Clio 172 serviced outside the network, it can destroy any...

A word of warning before you kick seven shades of sh1t out of the thieving scum bags. Please dont forget their "HUMAN RIGHTS" Wouldnt want Cherie Blair after you for violating this worthy and just cause would we now? Bless their cotton socks! Victims have no rights, crims do! P1ssed...

Not heard of this smoking problem with cats before. They do operate at very high temperatures - up to 900 celsius. Check to see if there are any foreign bodies on the cat like a plastic carrier bag? These will produce the smoke and a burning smell. Hope that helps. Bob

You may supply your own oil if you wish. There is no law against it. Just tell reception on arrrival that you have supplied it and make sure they make a note on the job card. Renault do not offer any FREE services. You will have to pay for them all. Hope that helps. Bob

Thanks for that GirlRacer! Slept like a log! Wanna share it with me some time???? LOL! Bob

Hi all. For all those who wonder where I work, its Driveline Ashford. 1 Hilton Road Ashford Kent TN23 1EW 01233 658585 http://www.drivelinerenault.co.uk I only visit this forum during the evenings after I have finished my days work, as I am not allowed to surf the net at...

Hi Leigh. Uphill / happy / struggle / people / its / with / an / to / keep / with / Renaults / their/ Please rearrange these words to make a sentance. You are bang on. The brakes stop the car, what more DO YOU WANT? Bob - going to bed - really down hearted - Bob, climbs ladder...

Thanks GR I owe ya lots and lots for your forgivness! Ill never be sarcastic again, EVER!!!! See, im not so bad! Not so good either sometimes! Im so HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D

The rear axle does not have to be removed to fit the back box. The car must be jacked right up and the spare wheel and CARRIER needs to be removed. Its best to have the vehicle as high off the ground as possible. Its a twist and turn procedure. It does fit, just a bugger to do on the floor, like...

There could be several reasons why your heater is not getting hot. 1. Is the engine running (only joking) 2. Do you have a temperature gauge on the instrument panel and if "YES" does it read between 1/4 and 1/2 when up to normal running temp? If it reads normal but the heater is not getting...

OK I submit. If they are the same discs and calipers whats wrong with that? Dont fix what aint broken! In submission/remission/admission to the local looney bin! Yours Bob

GR, have you not looked at my previous posts? Please look, pretty please! Go on - you know you want to! LOL Bob

GR, I said I am SORRY!!!! How long will I have to remain out in the wilderness begging your forgivness? A sad and lonely Bob :(

Thanks Matty. Glad to see you are not completely satisfied with other outlets as well as your local Renault dealer!. Notice I left Renault till last! LOL Bob

Hi Jeremy. Didnt expect this sort of response to my original post. I work for dealer code 33001, you know where I am! Not going to publicly announce exactly where for obvious reasons! I have worked within Renault Franchised dealers for the last 17 years (21 in total) and have seen some...

I am sorry if I have offended you Girl Racer. I was only having a bit of a laugh but unfortunately (once again) my sarcastic sense of humour has been missed. At the end of my post I did sign off with LOL! Laugh out loud/lots of laughs or even Lots of love. I do work on these cars every day and...

I know this is not really the place to be posting this but here goes anyway. I work for a Renault main dealer. Does anyone else here, work for a dealer or indeed, RUK? Just a thought. Bob

If you cant do the time, then dont do the crime. If you cant afford the fine, then dont do the crime. Simple init. Thats what my brother in law copper says all the time! Annoying bugger he is! Bob So I punched him in the gob!

Tom. Leigh & I are small fish in a big pond. Our opinions would be like a drop in the ocean. At the dealership I work at, we hold monthly meetings to discuss our CSI (customer satisfaction index) This is a tool that Renault use to gauge our customers satifaction. RUK use a company to phone...

Leigh, you are a salesman, you are not annoying. You, like us in the service department, have a job to do and we all do it to the best of our ability. We all work as a team to achieve a common goal. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. Its the customers that need to be gently educated in the workings of a...

Thanks for your understanding Leigh. I didnt include sales cars new/used or the copious quantity of "Drop on jobs". These are jobs that just turn up for us to just look at! The worst offenders are company reps with thier fleet cars. "Got a brake light bulb out, stick one in for us, while I...

At a busy dealership we see up to 50 customers a day. Most customers turn up all at the same time, normally between 8 AM - 9AM. This puts the receptionist under a great deal of pressure. The customer THINKS they are the only one with thier car booked in on that day. Each of those 50 cars has...

The "fly by wire" throttle is not something you should be messing with. There are 2 tracks within the throttle potentiometer which work on different voltage potentials. If the ECU picks up a spurious signal, it will more than likely go into default, which may mean the throttle will stop...

Unfortunate as it is, this is a characteristic of most disc braked vehicles - not just Renault. There is no cure at present but RUK are aware of this http://rd.yahoo.com/search/iy/movies/phenomenon/phenomenon/*http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?id=1800261897&d=hv&cf=info Phenomenon and will...

You might not get a warranty repair as you dont get warranty on a warranty repair. If a vehicle is repaired during the warranty period, then the repair is only valid for the remainder of the original warranty period, not another 12 months. As you have taken your vehicle outside the Renault...

All very well having a cambelt done on the cheap or by a mate who knows what they are doing, but when, (NOT IF), it goes wrong, who you gonna call? Renault dealers may be a lot more expensive but you will have the (genuine)belt replaced by a factory trained technician, using the correct method...
