My 04 182 with cup pack is currently with my local renault dealer who were checking out the rear suspension.. Just had a call to tell me that it needs a new shock absorber and this is NOT covered by warranty as it is general wear and tear. The car is just 2yrs old with 21k! I understand this is a common fault so if anyone else has experienced this then please tell me your thoughts on whether I should try and get this sorted under warranty.. Thanks..

Moaned like hell at the dealership, they replaced both sides for nout!!
WINNER!!!
Stick to you guns mate, moan like theres no tomorrow, what have you got to lose??? :approve:
Exactly the same happened to me 9K on the clock and the rear left started leaking fluid. I moaned and moaned and got it replaced. 2 weeks later the right hand side started. Dealership didnt want to replace it but I gave them hell in the middle of their service dept.
Bearing in mind this was Birmingham and there must have been 15 people in the queue to hear this. I was saying that the quality of the cars was crap, service was appauling etc etc. (2 blokes walked straight out the door saying they werent having their cars done their! LOL)
As soon as the manager saw I was kicking off he just said to replace them to shut me up I think! Just make a scene - no branch wants to get a bad rep. Make sure its about 8.30 in the morning when everyone drops their car off as well!
one of mine was leaking....they said the same thing about replacing it...
i told them to bugger off and the foned renault UK..
Got back to me saying that they would replace both under warranty...
(like they wer doing me a favour??)
To bloody right its a warranty job...
SHOULDNT have happened in the first place if you ask me..
