    FF182 Aux belt shredded. Engine dead. Where next?

    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.

    FF182 Aux belt shredded. Engine dead. Where next?

    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).

    FF182 Aux belt shredded. Engine dead. Where next?

    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]

    FF182 Aux belt shredded. Engine dead. Where next?

    ^ 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...

    FF182 Aux belt shredded. Engine dead. Where next?

    Thanks for the suggestions so far guys. I called the dealer today but the service manager was out so I spoke to the sales manager, who was not particularly interested. I told him that it was outrageous that I should spend so much money having a major service with them last year only for one of...

    FF182 Aux belt shredded. Engine dead. Where next?

    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. I manage to coast it over to the sliproad/hard shoulder...

    RB 182 A14 Godmanchester

    Presumably they'd charge me several hours labour for investigation? Problem is the car is now 120 miles from the dealer where the work was done.

    Even more annoyingly Renault dealers did them 13 months ago.

    RB 182 A14 Godmanchester

    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.

    BG 182 Mansfield

    Parked at the local autofactors, where I went to pick up some free o2 screenwash. Small plate, nipple ring etc. Looked nice.

    BURPSPEED FRENCH TROPHY MALLORY Race 1 Report

    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?

    Indeed. I don't like strange spacing, but it doesn't work without it.

    2014 F1 V6 Turbo Engines

    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.

    New Gordini info from PistonHeads...

    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:).
