Why people take their cars for an MOT when they " expect " it to fail is beyond me :eek: especially for the sake of a few quid on some new brake pads !

The bulbs are called 501 , W5W , wedge or capless . They are all the same bulb but with a different name . They are the same as the sidelight bulbs and some interior bulbs . This is just an example on ebay , i can't vouch for the qaulity ...

Hope you get it all sorted :) Keep us informed on how you get on .

Agreed , it's carp ;)

I'm not that clued up on small claims courts , maybe some people on here have some experience of it . I would assume if you won that any costs incurred by yourself would be paid by the dealer if you won . Maybe a search on google will give you a bit of an idea . Sometimes local solicitors offer...

Your grid position: 91 out of 121 postcodes Your premium: £221.13 The national average: £190.55 I don't see how this works . I'm BB3 and my mate is BB6 , i got a quote on my 182 from his postcode and it was £160 less than from my postcode .

Tbh i'd never buy a car from a dealer that only gives a 2 week warranty . It doesn't instill much confidence that the cars they sell are decent quality . Sounds like you've got a catalogue of problems that need fixing . Sometimes buying a cheap motor doesn't always turn out to be the bargain you...

Not true . My alarm is a Toad 850t and works off the standard keyfob . You need to get it back to the dealers and get them to sort it .

It should light up as you turn the ignition on then go out straight away with all the other lights . It's actually in the owners manual on page 1.49 ;)

Of course the PH2 172 came with auto wipers . Do a search for gel pack walshyclio , if you've had a replacement windscreen then it might not have the gel pack . See the pic .The gel pack looks like a few blobs of clear silicone sealant .

Try locking the car with the remote , leave it a minute or two then open the car door with the key . This " should " set the alarm off . If it does then you know it's working .

^^^ Yeah you should have one . Looks like someone sold it ;)

Looks like you'll have to go to the dealers and get them adjusted ,the xenons are set for UK roads , i.e. pointing off centre to the left There is a white plastic allen head screw to adjust the height of the beam on the back of the headlight unit , i heard there are also a screws to adjust from...

I prefered the original conti contacts that came on my 172 over the toyos .But the Michelin Pilot Exatlos p!ss all over both of them in the wet . But you pay a premium for them , they aint cheap .

R's and S's both crap in the wet imo .I had them on my 172 , i wouldn't have them given me .

^^^ Same here . In my 172 and 182 the pedals were exactly the same .

I'm with VM , been upgraded to 10mb a few weeks ago . I can get anywhere between 2 mb and 10mb .VM use traffic management . It's usually slower between 4pm and 11pm even thought they say it's between 4pm and 9pm and 10am and 3pm. Apparently this is for the top 5% of heavy downloaders , i...

I'll keep my eye out for ya . :)

I live on Durham Road . Arctic blue 182 . Was it me ?? The only 197 i've seen knocking about round my way was a black one the other day , not seen a nimbus one knocking about .

I also had an exhaust replaced when mine wasn't under warranty ,when i went to collect the car and they presented me with an invoice they were very red faced when they realised what they had done . One free exhaust ftw ;) Thats besides the point though . I think you'll find that most...

Do you really think that Renault put clauses in their warranties without first checking that the wording of it is totally legal ? . :rasp: :approve:

^^^ I suggest you read the service booklet . It's all in there .EU legislation or not , thats how they get away with not replacing parts .

If you read the warranty booklet , it states that the anti corrosion warranty is only valid if it's been serviced at a Renault garage because they also do an anti corrosion check which they should also tick and stamp in your service booklet along side your service stamp. Thats how they get...

It'll be locked to the car it came off . It'll need unlocking before you can use it . 50 Euros http://www.fastchip.nl/component/page,shop.product_details/flypage,shop.flypage/product_id,26/category_id,11/manufacturer_id,0/option,com_virtuemart/Itemid,26/

Renault use lube for many things . Usually for service costs though ;) Bend over Sir ......

^^^ I received a letter from Renault . All registered owners should have done . I wouldn't bother wasting an hour or so of my life just to spray it with WD40 tbh .

^^^ Same for me . A quick spray with oil for me as well . Obviously if it's coroded then you did the right thing in getting it changed .

Both windows in my 172 were one touch , in my 182 you have to hold down the switch on the passenger side .

I don't want to piss on your chips , and you might be onto a good idea . But imo i reckon only a very very small amount of people would be interested in getting their discs grooved . People who want grooved discs usually buy them already with the grooves in . I hope i'm wrong and you...
