A local motor factor shop should be able to get hold of em for ya or some companies on the net . I just just find it hard to believe that " both " calipers are bent .

If you get in contact with Renault UK or maybe even a local dealership they could probably sort you out with the relevant books in English . I saw a thread a while back on here where the guy had to service book . Renault uk sent a new 1 .
So would i mate . Refurbed calipers are about £100 each on an exchange basis . My only thought was how , IF at all are the calipers bent ?
If they are only slightly binding its not a hard job to fix .
What spring / release ??? Only springs are on rear calipers ( a return spring and 5 sprung thrustwashers ) and they are inside the caliper body itself which most people never see .
How have you bent your calipers ,lol ? I'd strip em down , clean em up , take out the piston and grease inside but seeing cash ain't an issue thats up to you .
I'd love to know how you've bent em , which part is bent ?
The disk size should be 259mm .The disk size for a 1.2 8v is 238mm . Did you order the disks for the vehicle or did you measure the disks and order the same size as the ones that were fitted .
The whole area of the pad should be in contact with the disc , usually leaving a couple of mm on the...

Yeah right , just needs the tracking sorted , its only a 10 min job and he;s already had it in the garage , why didn't he get em to do it there and then , about a tenner , me thinks its more than the tracking thats wrong with this cars suspension .
Mate we've all done that .I saw a new one i wanted only 6 weeks ago , sold my car on autotrader and the one i saw was sold ,lol. Just have a look about , get to know what a good car should look like and what a car thats been hammered looks like . Maybe even take a test drive in a couple ...
You tellin me you bought it ? Its readily available on the net for free ;) . I use winavi converter , converts avi's , mpegs etc to dvd , used to use santa as well .
Only time i use nero is to burn a straight copy , under 4.7gb .Clonedvd rips ,shrinks and burns all in about 3 clicks of your...
I'll have a look at that one myself . I'm always open to new suggestions . Does it rip and burn in one program like clonedvd , or do ya need 2 separate programs ?
Cheers :)

4.75 litres without a new oil filter , 4.95 litres with a new oil filter iirc .
Check out the threads on changing the oil filter , bit of a fiddly job .
^^^^ Full fat has all the toys , leather , air con , xenons etc ^^^^
Whereas the cup just has the dynamique interior , no xenons, no air con , correct me if i'm wrong .
I'd go back and tell him that he's f*cked up , fitting a smaller than standard bore pipe . Maybe somebody could measure their 172's pipe and give you the correct size so you can go armed with the right info .
