Re: 551 bhp renault 5
if its spec u want then hear go's
172 motor de-stroked to 1.8 with volvo 1.7 crank
vag gearbox (cos renault box's cant cope with that)
t30 turbo (32psi all the way to the redline)
adaptronic ecu and costom map by scoff himself
and lots of stuff he wont tell you
renault belt is made by gates and thay use skf tansioner so it is the same thing for less money and gates offer the same parts warranty as renault, if the belt snaped before its due date gates will pay for any damege to the engine.
you need a new cable had the same thing on mine. it shakes because the cable sticks inside the its cover you can only get ones that fit properly from renault and thay are about £60!!!!!
that wont make the belt snap can you take the cambelt of the car coz it is easy to tell if the belt is new or not. what make belt is on it and what make belt have you been charged for ?
the aux belt should have been changed at the same but if it wasant and you didant ask them to then you will have to get your hand in your pocket but if you asked them to change it and thay didant then its all on them, has the aux belt snaped?
if the belt is new and has snaped the people who make the belt will pay for any damege to the engine. i work in a garage and iv seen gates pay out for a new engine when a belt snaped within 2 years of it being fitted.
