    Driveshaft gaitor split!!!

    If its like my valver then for drivers side you don't have the drain the oil, you can buy boot kits which are pretty cheap circa £10 isn't difficult depending on the tools you have, you might have to take the shaft to a garage to get the boot on properly/clips tightened.

    This whole CV boot / Driveshaft thing

    PS No way anyone would do one on a renault for £30 less its mates-rates. Which side is gone? I know on the passenger side to do the outer you have to take the shaft out which means draining the gearbox oil then take the inner boot off so you can slide the outer one on.

    ^^ To be fair, if you're serious about the car then it might be worth actually jacking it and taking the wheels off to check... if there isn't a problem then the seller shouldn't mind?

    Brake Help Pleeeease

    Hmm well the brakes on an RT have never been good, could try performance pads? Don't bother with the K-Tec upgrade just source some brakes from a williams/16v will be much cheaper! You'll need discs/pads/carriers/calipers think thats it...

    Help with coolant pipes...

    Best bet would be to source one 2nd hand renault would probably charge a fortune might be worth checking anyway... Im sure if you clean it up you can botch a repair with some tape or something in the mean time though?

    Removal of Stubborn Brake Disk (182)

    Are you putting a new disk on afterwards? If so just smack it with a big hammer, otherwise just keep smacking it round with a rubber mallet.
