I take it they mean strip the head and then give me a quote for rebuilding it.
Cheers Matt. Will give it a go.
Chris79 - No work has been done on the PAS pump. Nothing has been touched since they changed the belts.
They've said they'll investigate FoC and carry out repairs "at cost". Still sounds like it will be expensive.
Thanks for the lead! Car is in east London and needs to go to Mansfield (east midlands).
I've now spoken to the dealership who were surprisingly sympathetic. They've offered to "look after me" if i can get the car to them.
Renault UK are not willing to help me recover the car back to them.
So now I just need to sort transport 150 miles [emoji52]

All i know is half the aux belt is missing and now the engine doesn't turn over.
Shock. They've not called me back.
So bearing in mind I'd have to get it towed 120+ miles to get it back to the dealers for them to investigate and the chances are that they'll wash their hands of it..... Do i...
Thanks for the suggestions so far guys.

I was driving back to London from my visiting family this week when along the A14 there's a bang and the car cuts out. Thankfully I was in the inside lane and not going too quickly (maybe 50ish) having just cleared a load of traffic.

This was me. First time being spotted in a long time!
Expensive day, had to join aa and pay for extended recovery.
Unfortunately could be terminal for the little car. Aux belt shredded and likely took the cammy with it :cry:
Gutted. Only had the belts done last year.
I've watched race 1 and 2 now. Some great footage of battling going on in front of you!
That Ian fella seemed to be really on it. Is there much difference between the spec of the top 3?
The idea is also to bring in more manufacturers as well.
Turbo v6s are why Honda are coming back.
We'd all love to have the screaming V10s back but sadly they're just not relevant anymore.
Hopefully his wish list isn't too wide off the mark.
We have been promised a more performance focused route for the brand, but I suppose it wouldn't be too difficult to improve on their last couple of "efforts".
Just whack some sachs on it and make it blue only (manual as well obviously :rasp:).
Bump! :D
Remembered this thread recently after realising I don't use my cameras enough. So decided to give it another go after 5 years!
