pimpdaddyPLEASE PM ME IF YOU WANT TO ADD YOUR NAME TO THE LIST
I'm sure we all know of the issues with the steering wheel...
Horses for courses, if you want it done then do it, as most things to worry about you'll be replaing anyway. What i would say is get the car and decide once you've got it if you want lowered suspension or not
once this list gets to 50 I will pm everyone on it for further details, full name, car details etc. I'll then send these details off to renault for there comments, and hopefully a more satisfactory response for everyone involved.
the cup suspension is firm sports suspension, the MG's is just silly imo... anyway back to the point. yes it will affect the warranty on everything related to the suspension and wheel bearings and any other parts put under extra stress by the car being lowered
the only reason he's asked about 7mm drop is because thats what the cup suspension is.
Decent aftermarket stuff properly setup will be better than cup suspension though probably lose some of the ride comfort.
EDIT: The eibach koni combination is excellent and very good value for money...
If you want the cup suspension then you need to speak a dealers to get prices for the cup parts. If you want aftermarket then I would look at Eibach Springs and Koni Shocks which will set you back about £500 + fitting. Or look at Coilovers which will set you back even more.
Mark that might not be a bad idea! A list of peoples name and addresses and car details, and an example wheel enclosed!
EDIT: Obviously guys I havent got a 1*2 or a melted wheel, but as this was my idea am happy to help you out in arranging it and being a point of contact for both you all and...
as madmike1 says, you cant really lower it 7mm. Though i presume you are asking about that because the Cup is 7mm lower than standard? If you want cuplike improved handling then you will need to look at stiffer dampers and springs.
shes meant to be calling me back to let me know if i can add them to the order and how long i've got to amke my mind up.
What camera did you recommend?
edit: I dont like tim(e)s car :o too much white and too low
its your fault i'm in this dilema :rasp:
May have been looking through your gallery and seen the ones on track with cup spoiler and black speedlines...
i ahte making decisions :( isnt helped by the fact i am getting a mixed set of opinions (have asked this else where aswell). Will have to wait and see what the dealer says anyway
That is a generic Renault response. What you need to do is get a list of people and the cars that have this issue and submit it to Renault. If you get 50+ people all with the same proble, all submitting a joint complaint, they might listen, and if they dont, forward it to watchdog ;)
Mark not sure why they could prosecute you for tax evasion as Vegtable oil isnt taxed... I presume you are saying they could prosecute him for running it on Vegetable oil instead of diesel, but then surely people wouldnt be able to sell bio-diesel would they?
Am i being completely dumb and...
