    Cam timing

    the rolling road/set up could highlight ingnition problems etc (eg,weak spark plug or coil) and allow the pbv to be set up correctly.they wont touch the cam timing on a rr as this was done when the engine was rebuilt but i suppose it could show if there setup correctly or not by comparing the...

    Timing a Cam belt

    the renault tool fits in the grooves in the end of the cams after removing the blanking plugs in the head.but as a visual rule the large half moon shape goes to the top. tdc pins fits in the normal place without these tools you cant properley tension the belt and this has been the cause of a...

    Timing a Cam belt

    both.if youve never done a cambelt before then i think its best to pin it up due to you have to remove the bottem pulley to see the crank tdc mark.i know you could just line up the cams and take the pulley off but on a first time of doing a belt i think using the pin is a good idea.also if you...

    Turbo problem

    the cutch etc is a mechanical link so there no way that the revs could increase without vehicle speed increasing unless the clutch is slipping.from what you say it sounds like your clutch is slipping.

    Should I use a genuine Renault Cam Belt

    you will only get parts warranty if you fit the complete cambelt kit(belt,idlers+tensioner).you should also replace the alternater belt as well.they might request to inspect the vehicle in the event of a claim so make sure its fitted correctly.
