I agree with clio chris and fubar . Take it back to Renault and get them to repair it . Chipsaway will charge around £70 , so why should you foot the bill ?
Try using one of these next time . They are supposed to have a slight cutting ability . I prefer them to the microfibre applicators for polishing , i use the microfibre ones just for waxing .

^^^ Thats cos its the generic owners manual for Clios . There's a separate owners manual for the RS Clios , but it doesn't actually show you in that one either where the brake fluid reservoir is for the RS's .
I don't think you'll get much cheaper than yozzasport tbh , if ya do it will only be a couple of quid .
Only place that might be cheaper is a local car parts supplier .
I'd check the pads are actually moving freely in the carriers . You could try cleaning all the old muck , brake dust etc off the carriers , you can get alot of build up on there stopping the pads moving .I had to file a tiny little bit off the backplate of the pads once as they were a tight fit...
There ya go mate .As said , you have to remove the engine cover to get to it . I always put a few old rags around it when i'm filling it in case i spill any . The exhaust sits below it and you don't want any on there .
Depends what condition its in as well . I'd offer £80 and see what he says , then you have the p+p . There's one on ebay at the moment , its at £20 plus £30 p+p.

What are we actually supposed to be looking at ? For a start the pics a bit dark . Where do you think the staining is , on the outside ?? If its on the outside try wiping it mate , you'll soon see if its scratched .
Silkolene Pro S 5w 40 for me . Got a good deal from opieoils on one of there special offers :) Its normally £50 for 5 litres , £40 at the moment with free delivery .

Looks like your typical yank garbage advertising . Mesmerise and astound people with technology just like they do on most of their shopping channel adverts .Electrophoresis, positive ions , negative ions the ptfe is pulled into the paintwork " WOW i must buy some " , lol . Well according to the...
You can't buy the anthracite in aerosols . But Rover storm grey or Audi Nimbus grey is a good match .
A pic of an alloy i refurbed in this thread .

Chill out mate . Course they are one and the same .You order your phone from e2save and comes stickered up with CPW ;) I've been with e2save and had no problems whatsoever .
Read the second sentence :quiet:

Trust me Mark it does make a difference . If your rears are in poor condition and you brake hard in the wet , the fronts will grip , your rears won't therefore your back end will want to overtake the front end . I've experienced this , bit of an arse twitching moment to say the least , lol ...
Problem solved :)
After ringing mytyres the first time and getting through to a call centre to be told they are going to be out stock for a month i called mytyres again and spoke to someone who spoke slightly better english , lol . They are due in a weeks times . £156 plus £5 a tyre fitted...
Yeah right . So he read the link . The link states new tyres to the rear . He said he " won't " be swapping the rears to the front anymore ! Thats the only way to do it , rears to the front and new ones on the back , unless your gonna renew them all round .
You can dilute the fairy power spray down . I'd only use it if your alloys are in good condition though . Never had a problem using it on mine ( touch wood ) ;)
Fairy power spray , best stuff i've ever used , spray on , leave for 10 mins , powerwash off. Or the Blue Rim and Wheel Cleaner that Brand86 recommends is good stuff as well . The wheel guard is good stuff once your wheels are clean as well or top with some collinite 476 wax ...
