The temperature guage will be higher and lower due to outside temp. It will be higher at the moment as its warmer. In the cold winter assuming you drive exactly the same the engine will be cooler. I wouldnt worry unless it gets very high ie over 3/4 for long periods and your not hammering...

Whats the coolent needle you sure ur not talking about the engine oil temperature. That will go up slowly as the engine takes some time to cool up all the coolent in the engine. The juddering problem is abismal on the Micra i have at the moment. Drive a 1liter Micra then you will be happy with...

Sorry to say but i recon they will write it off they would write if off if the damage is 60% the value of the car. In your case £1500. It seems £1500 worth or repairs is easy to build up. If anything needs replacing to do with the stearing im sure it will be writen off. Mine looked like thewre...

Can anyone please help me im interested in finding out what turbo is used on the 1.5 dci clios I know the 65 and 80hp versions are the same but what turbo are they? Thanks for any help. EDD

Thanks I just wish they would write it of and I could save myself some money with not having to pay for another years roadfund, a service and new tyres. EDD

If anyone can remember last week I crashed my car the damage according to Lewis read is £42k. However the insurance people came to have a look at it before it had been alignment tested and said that even if there is extra damage they still want to repair the car. However the car is going to...

http://www.simpsonsalvage.comhttp://www.simpsonsalvage.com Ive just been on there site and looking at the damage on some cars which are writ offs im guessing mine will be written of. Well maybe its a new car for me i quite like the 03 plates. If my car were to be written of could i have...

These next 16 days will be the longest ever, trust me I had 7 weeks to wait.:( EDD

Mine took 8 weeks but least it meant it was a 52 reg. EDD

120 in a 1.4 16v 110mph in the diesel that was just over 4k on the clock which would mean 102mph EDD

http://www.confused.comwww.confused.com are good for quotes i believe. I drove a 1.4 16v coutesy car and it was quite powerful and gave u confidence when overtaking which my diesel dont give you. However if your spending that sort of money wont you feel like you took the cheap option. Get a...

I would have thourght the insurance compnay would be ok with two cars on the one policy. How about registering the car in your parents or someone elses name. Then pay for the insurance third part fire and theft with them as the only driver. On your own policy you could drive the car round...

RobFenn i dont think you will be getting any better. The 1.2 16v coutesy car I had only did 20 to the gallon the 300 miles that i did in it. Was glad in some ways to get my car back to save me some money. EDD

Lightning16v why not keep the courtesy car until they fix it once and for all. Get a cover note for a week from your own icsurance company and when Renault say your cars fixed ask them to check and dont give the keys back until its fixed once and for all. EDD

jon_r I have to agree why is it the little diesel goes through tires that quick. I swoped mine round at 13k cos the front were really low my escort did 20k or so without as much wear at all and i think i drive them the same. Mine hasnt used any oil though in 16k and i dont intend to buy...

Could you try dropping the car off and getting a courtey car and not give them there car back until they have fixed ur car. What would they do. My guess is fix is asap there not going to cal the car in as stolen if you dont give it back can u imagine the fuss if that did happen. Just...

How come the car needs a new gearbox was it down to driver neglect :o or a manurfacturing fault? is ur car under a year old cos you could try another renault dealership until one is more willing to help you out with a courtesy car. I cannot see why Renault wont help with this as its a serious...

ye its the 21 bit they didnt ask me originally if i was 21 and let me out without checking my drivers licence and they made a copy of it so theres no excuse. try ringing tesco i think all companies are ok about it as its warently work its not like a test drive. You could try getting the...

Ye u can have a coutesy car. The problem is with insurance of the car as renault insurance only covers 21+ yrs old drivers when there cars are in for warently work. Ring up the garage and politley tell them u need a car and that u will insure it under ur own name for the time necessary. Ring...

Go on it looks excellent. Have something different which will lead to massive threads about whether or not ur car looks good or not. The wheels make me think Clio cup. EDD

Black wheels loog good on some colour cars ( punto GT at uni looks good) But on a black car I have to agree that it doesnt look very good. Edd

The Corsa !.8 weights loads I thourght. Problems is the 1.8SRI has lowered suspension my mate had the 1.8 suspension on his SXi and he says its excellent. EDD

I belive its there legal obligation to pay out to the 3rd party. However they could then chase you thought the courts to get there money back. EDD

Nope you cannot get 108hp from the 65hp version. the 108 claimed hp is from the 80hp clio cos it has a intercooler and a more powerful fuel pump. Theres no way a 65hp clio could give that much power without similar other modifications. EDD

I guess ur car is under one year old so u can take it to any Renault dealer so if you want to have to problem fixed asap just ring a few other local dealers. The problem is a normal Clio one though so dont worry. My local dealer acted amazed when i had it fixed but then ui found out all clios at...
