    car revving when the brake is pressed?

    Mine started to do this after i had an RS2 fitted. I just put it down to that. However it does only do it for the first minute of a journey. If it does it all the time then thats pretty awesome, its like having auto heel toe!!

    Service

    Is £300 - £330 a good price for minor service plus dephaser change? The guy said £150 of that was for the dephaser. Last service i had was a major so i have nothing to compare it to.

    Tracking

    This place is local though. But yeah it was £100 for the works. Car feels tons better for it now, exept the wimpy steering wheel
  17. Quinnie

    Tracking

    Don't laugh at me.... £100 for alignment, geo and wheel balancing. Don't know if that's a good price. I did use that to my advantage though. I said it was unacceptable for £100

    Problem with shocks and top mounts

    Hiya guys, Right... Fitted some eibachs a few weeks ago, when I took the front shocks off the whole thing just fell apart in my hands (spring and top hat). It was like the spring hadn't been secured with the top hat. Any way I scavenged two nuts that would do the job. Problem is that now...

    Lighting behind RHS of centre console out + airbag light on

    The lights on the dash are a common fault mate. Under the passangervseat is a terminal, just wiggle it about when it comes on and that should turn it off. As for the centre console, I haven't got a clue. Mine is completely out, no fuses as far as I can see.

    How to I get my locking wheel nuts off without a key?

    had the same problem. renault dont have a master set, you should have a code in your docs and they order a new one for you. i just took my car to every garage i could find. eventually one garage was able to get them off. only wanted a tenner for aswell.
