Greasy Shock!

[Skeeter]

I was just under my car looking at the exhaust and though "that rear shock looks a bit clean?"

Turn out its got a film of grease all the way from the bottom up to just above where the top plastic sleve runs out.

I assume its fubared? Do I need to replace springs as well as shocks, or will a pair of Renault shocks be ok?

can just replace the dampers their own but as you said make sure you get a pair and not just one as the other will be soon behind it!

Cheers. Theres another £100 to go with the £700 the Clio has cost me already this month!

Thread revival because.... It's happened again!

They have only lasted 7,000 miles! Surely that's not right?! The same corner again! And I've got a trackday on Saturday!

Did you buy genuine Renault shocks?

 

[Skeeter]

Yes.

Strange one mate.

Just come across another thread on here saying about a 5000 warranty replacement on Renault shocks. Might be worth a hunt...
