I had the water pump, cambelt and dephaser done 2 years ago with them and think it was the £650-700 range. Iv been going for 7/8 years they have always been very helpful and knowledgeable. They offer club discount as well.
If all the issues are electrical. Looking for an auto electrician might be a good idea. I had a mobile one come to my house to look over my 182 when all went wrong which he turned back to right.
Iv had my m140 for a year now had two issues, break pad sensors failed and i needed a new wing mirror motor i also have the creek door seal issues requireing some Gt85 every now and then. The B58 in the 140 is as stated quite a solid engine dose not suffer with oil starvation like the previous...
Iv have had my m140 for 8 months and love it, the specs very, mine has some nice options which makes all the difference, I wouldnt have enjoyed a poverty spec one. The numb steering feel is evident but i don't think the car as a hole lacks character, a friends golf r feels bland in comparison. I...
I have had this problem only happened in the first minute or so then was fine. It was the Lamber sensor that need replacing on mine. There is a rumour that shell vpower throws them off quite quickly.
Im having an intermittent starting problem (video attached) can happen hot or cold cant seem to find any pattern. When it dose start its immediate no hesitation engine runs perfectly once going. Garage believe it to be a immobiliser issue we have replaced the key and the UCH and still having...
He worked out its running 0.5 boost where i think it should have 1.1? It doesn't feel slow its no slower than my 182 or his 172 before which makes it all the more weard.

At the end of the day a car is a mechanical item and will have a usable life what ever that might be, using it dose create wear. Cars with higher milage have more wear. Properly maintaining it changing worn parts ect is obviously going to keep it running well for longer. If you had the choice...
Rather than new upgrades id like down grades, things remove like airbag sensors especially those located under Renault seats or Orange lights to be removed!
Didn't even get 5000 out of them before they got the chop they were silly loud as well, I didn't think much to the hankooks v12 either I have falcons on at the mo and they are the best so far but haven't had a go in the wet yet
My Engine warning light keeps coming on but when I plug the car in to get the fault code and rest it I just get a N/A code. To add recently the car hasn't started as cleanly as the past. Has this happened to anyone else?
On my resent run to Le Mans (1097 miles) I got 37.7 mpg which included a lot of cruising at 70, a quick blast around Arnage and a long run at 95 to catch the ferry loaded with camping gear and two people.
Im taking my clio for the 1st time this year has any one suggestions on what to bring iv got an 182 cup (no spare wheel) is it worth nabbing a spare and chucking it in the boot?
Booked mine in today whilst complaining about the poor service experience last time I visited Marsh Barton Renault. Turns out they cant fit me into there busy time table for ONE month. Also they try to sign me up for a complementary winter check in April. Service as usual!!
