i ordered one today and its got to come from france.

i borrowed a code reader too sort my mates car and just plugged it into mine to have a play and this code came up. Im sure it lambda but ive not long had the pre cat one replaced. Could it be the post cat one. I havent got the engine management light on thou, i just erased the fault and see if...

Right then i sent my missis to renault today for tools and new cam and crank pulley bolts. Here is what is on the receipt, am i missing anything??? 7711381801 0000149600 0000150901 0000105400 8200557644 8200793248 8200778847 8200545703

I only wanted to know about the correct brand of belts to use. So as fred said gates cambelt kit and renault aux kit. Will be buyin all renault timing tool too. Theres plenty of people that do it themselves to save on labour cost not just a tenner

Nothing against fred because hes a top bloke but im very capable of doing it myself and save a few quid.

i totally agree with fred on the parts to use. ive found out the belt kit i have is made by gates and now renault are doing the aux kit for £60+vat so ill phone em tomoz for that. Im just waiting for a member on here to give me a pm back about the locking tools

Jackpot!!!! I need one

im sure it can only be read by renault clip cuz i had a faulty lambda and thats all it showed on a simple diagnostic. Dont really wanna so renault for them to rob me blind for a simple fix

i just googled the number on the belt and it is gates 5507xs

he just told me its a gates kit but rebranded with his company part numbers and logos. my bad its not a goodyear kit, thats for another car

Fred has spoken so its goin in the bin

how much am i looking then for aux kit from renault and shall i get a complete gates cambelt kit of just a belt and use the tensioner and pulley i already got???

Thought id BUMP this as im still non the wiser

im just waiting on a pm back from a member on here about renting them to me

Im in the process of getting together all parts and tools to change both my belts this weekend. Ive had a friend acquire me a timing belt kit from work and its a goodyear belt but ive heard gates are the one to go for. Im just waiting for aux kit from him which i dont know the brand if belt it...

BUMP!!!

is my mates car and it started of with it overheating and a leaking rad, so the rad was changed and system bled. But its still losing water. it will go from full to empty in half a days driving about town. There are no visible leaks in the bay or on the floor and its not mixing with the oil or...

The car is fixed. Took about a week. It was only minor damage.

start it and disconnect the battery (negative first). If the car cuts out then your alternator has giv up the ghost

my car failed mot on bottom ball joint. Ive replaced it and havent heard the noise again YET!

If you get it started then disconnect the battery (Negative first) to rule out the alternator

UPDATE: I got a letter in the post today saying the other driver has admitted liability.

keep us posted!!!!!

i checked my papers and it was 19th march so ill get onto them tomoz
