    Rear caliper problems

    Don't know if they rear calipers are the same as 172/182's but i've seen em seize on newer calipers ,the only thing that can really seize is the adjuster screw inside the caliper , if it rusts it will seize and i've seen 1 rust . The pads will make fcuk all difference as to whether it will...

    Is it normal for corroading on a 4yr old 172 ?

    Alloys can and do corrode on the inside sometimes , could be for a few reasons , salt on the roads , wheel cleaners ( acid based ) . Nuts corode to . Do you mean " cabin " movement when idling ? If so this is pretty normal , the idle is pretty rough on 172 / 182's due to the cams, when its...

    I have the Toad 850T fitted to mine Chris ,its a Cat 1 alarm and it adds on to the factory fitted immobiliser so you still use the original key fob .Had one fitted on my old 172 , now got one on my new 182 .

    Does this sound right? (Warrenty Query)

    ^^^^ If you check out ebay , some new unprogrammed key fobs pop up from time to time, you would need to get them coded to your car but it would still be cheaper than buying from Renault .Then you would just have to have your old blade fitted to the new fob .

    Does this sound right? (Warrenty Query)

    Yeah i would guess so . Better to ask them just to confirm , but i'm 99% sure your cover will only last for 12 months however many replacement keys you have . Sounds a bit crap i know but thats how it is in the UK for all replacement goods not just keys . You dont get another 12 months each...

    Does this sound right? (Warrenty Query)

    ^^^^ Thats a bit strange not getting some sort of proof they were replaced . You will get 12 months warranty on the new keys , but if they fail say in 11 months time and they replace them again , your only covered on the original warranty so you will only have 1 month remaining even though the...

    Roadside Assist

    I never got an AA assist card when i bought mine new , did you get one Mark ? When my 182 packed up a few weeks ago i just rang the number for my AA i had which is now frozen and she put it through Renault assist .

    Roadside Assist

    Tell them that your not happy as they must have known it is an import with them being a Renault dealer . I'm assuming that ren cust services informed you that you don't get the full 3 year warranty with a cypriot import Al ? I'd be fcuking fuming to be honest .

    Standard Factory Fit ?

    All Full fats have the rain sensitive windscreen , even imports . Maybe it has had a new windscreen at some point , even then if should have had the rain sensitive windscreen fitted .

    tyre sizes

    Like thedoc says .You can get away with 205/45/16's which would give you slightly better grip , if you did go for this size of tyre your speedo would read slightly over i.e when your doing 70mph you'll actually be doing 71 mph which is fcuk all as speedos actually read around 1 - 1.5 % over...

    172 Exhaust.....

    Everybody has this problem . Like Gavfre says , go for a stainless one as they cost less than the Renault one and you'll get a lifetime warranty . I had a catback on my 172 , cost £270 fabricated and fitted by powerflow in Burnley .

    "Protected" music downloads, whats the point?

    Thats why i do it illegally , no hassle with the songs , do whatever ya want with em .They're not exactly tempting people to buy music legally when you can't do what you want to do with the song once you've bought it . When will they ever learn ;)
