I went to main dealer and it was steep, I had a letter for 20% off though, came in post, then at 36k I just asked for 10% off since they had given a discount before and girl said no problem and when I was in other people were booking in and asking, when I then went to drop car off they...
I was £149, I asked for 10% discount and they agreed no questions and I have just got the same 10% off for my 36k service, that £149 included £23 for brake lining cleaning or something and £6 for new rear wiper which arent normally included. (scotland dealer this is)
well, I intend to call the dealer again tomorrow and argue for a car since they are doing warranty work aswell as a service, but their response before seemed definate; "we dont do courtesy cars."
Stupid arnold clark. (sorry, SIR arnold Clark).
I contacted Tesco and they said at least that they will provide free cover for the car for the duration we have it... at least thats something (assuming car is not rated any higher)....
Still think I am entitled to a courtesy car though.
I have booked the car in for its 36K service (1.2 dynamique, 2 yrs old.) I managed to get them to give me 10% off by just asking, and she said fine so £225 which as far as I can see isnt too bad for this service at renault.
I also have asked for two warranty repairs; airbag warning and the...

1. Does she need to sign/come to dvla office with me?
2. At what point should I call the ins company and tell them?? b4 going dvla, day before etc...
Thanks.
Mike
Well, it doesnt occur with any relation to me pressing the brake pedal, secondly my brakes were only 50% worn at 18k service and I had the rear drums stripped and cleaned aswell at that time!
I would say its a squeel from the wheels when cornering and sometime when just going along.... but it...
Hi,
This morning after happening once last week, i noticed a squeek/squeel comming from the car as i move along slowly in traffic or especially when cornering (left). I think it is the bearings from what other posts say but they imply it gets worse at speed? mine seems to only be when turning...
Renault had a poster up saying they recommend you change wipers every year which is why they said, I got the back one done cos the rubber had split anyway.
I got 1.2 dynamique (same thing) and it was £149 (that was service at its menu price of £130 less 10% discount from a letter I had, plus rear drums cleaned - they were squeeking £26? and a new back wiper £7) It took 3 hours and I could c them working! BOOK it in even for renault minute btw! If...
I think I have a spare renault key, obviously it wont fit the lock but maybe you could have it (if I can find it) and just pay the £20 to have it coded to your car??
But I have seen them forsale on ebay with uncut blades ready for cutting, I think £40 (search under kangoo I think)
yes, happens often to me, and on my aunts clio (w-reg sport). I have noticed that it is accompanied by a dimming of the headlights when it happens at night (ie the lights dim slightly whilst the noise occurs as if there is some motor or something running).
Also it happens exactly the same if I...
Im sure it came with H rated and I figure since I am only changing two tyres I might aswell just get H again - for the moment.
Clio007 - I dont think that they do rainsports in 185/55 only Rallye or something like that.
Thanks for your replies, I will probably get the firehawks. They do...
Hi, I am looking for 2 new 185/55r15s and after a while and please nobody mention toyos because I am not getting them (they are only £42 but not available on mytyres till the end of feb and I dont care too much about going really fast in dry Id rather have wet grip)
Anyway, I found Firestone...
Hi,
For past few weeks my car has often made a sort of buzzing rubbing vibrationy sound (quite deep sound but loud) for about 1 second when I first move off afdter being stopped a while. (dont think its brakes cos it only happens once i reach say 4-6mph). It also very occasionally happens when...
I know there are plenty of complaints, but can anyone recommend a dealer in or around glasgow/East kilbride/Paisley area who gives good service? (also in a three year warranty, are yrs 2 & 3 covered by any dealer? cos my car came from some dealer in the south....)
Mike.
I was out today, and with it being hot and me having not decided to pay for Air conditioning, I was putting the windows down.
The passanger window then promptly got half way down and made a cracking sound. When I looked round the glass had formed a pyramid shape in the centre of the frame. (ie...
Ok, I went a bit over the top, it was supposed to look like it was just pushing its way through the fog (which I added) - not smoke :).
And yes, the lights are a little tweaked and tinted.
Hi,
My mum has now scratched the alloys on my dynamique. They are only on the very edge of the alloy, and run about 30% of the circumference of the wheel.
How much does this sort of thing cost to have repaired? I have read about places that refurbish and repair alloy wheels?? what do they...
I got the renault diamond from renault (actually bought two from two different dealers) and was informed on here that I was ripped off! I paid £10 each one.
Worth every penny. :)
Hello, did anyone else pass a mobile detector van in the hard shoudler on the A1 today before it becomes the A1(M).
Anyway, I did, and I was doing about 63-66mph. I think it was a 60, it was an A road, but there were no signs.... not even after I passed. And no warning of van. ANyway, that...
I also have the rattling, only in the passenger side door. Sounds like its towards the top left corner (from inside). It is worst on rough roads. I just ignore it.
I remember seeing something on TV (a good few years ago now) that car park owners (only works in multistories) could install.
It was just a big bit of foam that attached to the ceiling between car parking spaces and you could open your door, it would swing over to let you out but if you pushed...
