I agree also!
First two years of driving I was ripped paying around £1,500 (and that was on a group one insurance car!) but would never consider paying anywhere near that now... I'm 24 now btw.
Okay cheers guys, I think I'll top it up with water then for now, and see if it's looses it quickly or not, if so then I'll flush it and see if there's a problem!
With the PAS fluid, is that something I can pick up from Tesco's or do I need to go to a garage? Cheers ;)
As mentioned in another thread, my coolant tank is running on literally the bare minimum! Is it just water that goes in there or is it mixed with anything?
Also, it appears there's no fluids in my power steering bottle what-so-ever :eek: what do I need to put in there?
Thanks [/n00b]
lol but try as I might, I couldn't see the screwdriver! :clown: I think I have a portal in my engine bay.
Hang on... unless the gap between the footwell and the bay is greater than 6"!? Though I seriously doubt it :S
Okay the only thing I'm thinking is that I stuck a 6" screwdriver through, and couldn't see it... if i stick the wire through I don't see how I'm going to see that? Unless I let it drop to the floor I guess.
One more attempt I reckon then out comes the cheque book lol, just cba! Corsa = 5 mins...
So that grommit bit is the right bit i've got isn't it? I tried pulling it so hard! Pilers and everything lol... I ended up ripping half of it off, dont think I'll be able to get the rest of it out as there's nothing to grab on to now :dead:
Thing is, behind the material in the engine bay I...
Okay... update: done this weeks attempt lol! Got a lot further, but you guessed it, still haven't done it... here's where I got too...
This is how it was left in the bay, as you can see I finally got the other part off! Does this look right to you? Then pull back the lining?
Now with...
The 36k service on my car wasn't done by a Renault garage... do you think they'll still have a record of what was done?
I'd hate to be paying £500+ if I don't need to :dead:
Gonna have to bite the bullet :(
So from an average garage (non-renault) how much roughly would I be looking at for a belt change and 48k service together?
Damn I wish buying the car hadn't put me into debt lol :clown: gonna have to get saving and get the swap and service in 2k or so I guess... I will phone the garage that done it before to double check though.
Would you say that most people, in general, get the belts changed at their 36k service!?
My 182 is about to hit 46k, in the service book it's just stamped with the mileage and date, no sign of what has actually been done? I guess this is something I should be checking up on also then!?
Okay, sorry for not searching
Is this actually a problem for the car though? As long as it's not harming the car I don't really see it as something that needs to get fixed... unless it's done for free? :)
I've had two cars with auto wipers now and they've both been useless! Either not on at all, or wipe forever! There's nothing auto about it really :dead: love the auto lights though, made me think :D when I first went through a tunnel.
I have the same window switch thing on my 182. Annoying ain't it! :S mine are auto with the engine on, but the drivers side isn't auto when the engine is off!
Now, firstly I need to ask you a question. I've noticed more and more that my car is really raspy when accelerating hard between about 2k-3k, now I love it! Think it sounds wicked, was actually boasting about it to my bro :clown:
But... as time goes on, I think it might not actually meant to...
