That sounds like a right mission!!! But you didn't let it defeat you bud, nicely done!
I've never been a huge fan of these but to be honest, I think that looks ok! If you were keeping it long term, you need to loose the big Pure Motorsport sticker but if the receipt list might go back on, keep...
Forgot to say above in my essay, big thanks to @Louis for the offer of help and @T9 0LLE for doing the internet posts etc, all appreciated help guys!
It's unreal mate honestly, you can't make it up!
Thanks Jon :up::up:
I know what you mean mate, it just goes on and on and I've never had service like it.............. the latest chapter in the on-going saga is that I phoned them this morning, right on 9am when they opened. Got the same bloke I spoke to on Tuesday (who told me it would be sent that day, for...
Because I only ever buy new parts for my car where I can, I've never bought anything like this before in this way for the Clio so had no idea........ it's just so frustrating, as buying the box from Renparts so quickly made me stop my search there and then, yet a week later i'm no further...
Will see what they say tomorrow about a part refund for sure, I just need it delivered so they can put the car back together, that's all that matters at the mo! Car has now been sat on a ramp doing nothing for a week
Cannot believe i'm writing this, but the gearbox STILL hasn't been received at the garage from Renparts - absolutely terrible service and I am literally counting down until I can get on the phone again to them tomorrow, won't be so calm this time - no communication, no emails and worst of all, I...
Good man thanks for that mate, i'll keep it in mind - nothings happening with the old one, with the potential damage inside it was a non starter fixing or repairing it short term. Wouldn't have the confidence to use it again unless fully sorted like you said
So today has been another round of phone calls chasing this gearbox, not easy to do when i'm busy at work but luckily found some time when needed - we just happened to drive past the local Renault where my car is around 8:30 this morning and there was a big truck parked outside, the type that...
This is something I considered and discussed with them, but believe it or not Renault don't do them anymore i'm told! I was surprised to hear that, but they did ask the question for me and either way our local Renault couldn't supply a new one - hence the mad rush to find 'something' to get the...
I've only got one band on mine, but it's a thicker 'Royal Mail' type twisted over - it still rattles a bit under harder acceleration but general pottering about and on idle, mine doesn't rattle at all so far
Agreed! I reckon I could *maybe* live with the Trophy trendines but yes, the other versions out there like the Mitsubishi ones, the pattern and colour differences would seriously bug me. That said, if you have a stripped and carpeted rear, wouldn't be so bad.
This :up: I'm sure they are...
Tell me about it!! I've made sure it's been written down on the job card about swopping the spring round AND also told them again when I was there to see the car in pieces lol! As for Recaro's unless you can get them buy one get one free @ 50 quid I think my wallet needs a break :tearsofjoy...
Just ordered a clutch kit from RPD myself, to go direct to the garage - they phoned me this morning to say if I wait for them to get one in, Renault don't have one available until Friday/Monday next week so could I organise one and get it sent direct to them!? At first I was like wtf :flushed...
It's so strange, you'd think with some teeth out, it would have been a complete biatch to get into gear!! Regards the clutch release bearing, didn't even think of that to be honest, worth doing do you think?
Great update again, the job list is getting ticked off well.......... there always has to be a set back though doesn't there!!
I have brand new Cup shocks and Cooksports also and it is a very good set up - I also too have new genuine top mounts so very similar to your car
With the above, I...
