    Zymol Starter Pack

    I chose titanium over contour wax because its a tougher wax for everyday use, I have done my interior and wheels with there products, they are better than anything else I have tried. I am going to enter pics of my motor in the "just waxed" comp they do every month, if you win u get £100 of there...

    No my mistake no one would replace the main beams with any philips bulb because they would not fit, xeons are the best u can get. I was talking about a std clio. The only thing worth changing on a 172 is the indicator bulbs to get rid of that horrible orange look and the side lights. Powerbulbs...

    The philips bulbs give u 50% more light than a standard bulbs, I had them on my last car and they made a big difference. Go to http://www.powerbulbs.com/http://www.powerbulbs.com/ they explain it better than me. Members get a discount I believe.

    Thinking of buying a 172, advice please!

    They droped the cruise control and traction control because they could not get them to work, so I got my dealer to discount me for them and got a sweet price.

    Thinking of buying a 172, advice please!

    Go for a 172 not the cup unless u want a race track feel, I have the sat nav option fitted to my 172 so I have all the toys. In real life the 172 is just as quick as the cup but makes for a nicer drive because the cup has thinner glass and less sound insulation. As mentioned the only option...

    Zymol Starter Pack

    I used the titanium wax, nothing better. I also tried for a discount but they gave me the bit about being a re-seller, I only use there products on my car now. Took me 6 hours to do the three stages but u only need to do it once a year, I can clean my car with just water now and get a show room...

    Door dinks!

    I must be doing something wrong, I have a dent to the right of the passenger door handle. Renault BodyMaters in croydon quoted me £550 and they said that they would not pull or bang the dent out but fill it in and respray. I think that it would be good to get a 2nd quote anyone know of a place...

    Windscreen wipers...

    I use PJ branded blades which have a spoiler for both sides 21" and they cost me £14. I hate the bosch ones they just do not last that long and cost alot for what u get. If u need the part number for the PJs let me know.

    Alloy wheel repair

    Anyone know of a place in surrey that I can have my alloys repaired, nothing major just curbing. It needs to be a place I can drive to and wait for them to do the job. Cheers

    Renault Service- Lets Sort it out.

    Here are my thoughts, Create a questionnaire that would be sent via e-mail to all club members, also this can be posted on a web page for non-members to contribute. The document should contain member id, Renault garage in question, date of last visit then comments both good and bad. The...

    a v.near miss!

    My advice is just to hit them at speed and keep going, u will only hurt yourself if u try to avoid them. My last car was a SAAB 9-3 turbo and that took out 4 foxes and I think 1 rabbit, not even a scratch on the car just needed to be jet washed.

    FAO: Hit & Run

    Renault had two tries at fixing this problem, first thing does it happen at certain revs. Mine happend all the time between 2,000 - 3,000 rpm they first told me it was due to a part of the air conditioning system which they fixed. It was ok after that but the vibration returned and was then...

    anyone describe their ’loose baffle’ sound 172

    I had the same metalic sound at 4,000rpm, my local garage found that I had a blown cat. This part is in short supply and there are another 3 172 mk2 already waiting for this part at the garage. I think renault may have to do a recall soon.

    slight rattle sound from passenger door area.

    Does this noise happen at certain revs??, I had a metallic sound at 4,000rpm. The dealer found that I had a blown cat converter and they are going to replace this for me. The other thing to ask the garage to check is that the heat shield around the exhaust has not come loose. This can also...
