[Jaws]

Lol, is this another renault dealer c*ck up? I know someone who had a light changed and they left a screw driver in the engine bay. Congrats.

 

[gelder172]

it says 3/8 on it, im quessing it is a tool then and not a part of my car lol

I'd wait for Paul to confirm this. He's an expert in the area.

 

[Alastair.]

its looks like a 3/8" to 1/4" adapter for sockets/rachet

 

[DeeKay86]

I errmmm.... have a confession to make...

I was re-wiring my amps for FCS and left a rachet in my bonnet...it had fallen down by the fan... it was there for over 300 miles... then I found it and no damage was done! LUCKY!

Not supposed to be there so your fine, has it had an aux belt changed on it recently? Wondering if someones dropped it after using it to operate the belt tensioner.

You've not had work done at Renault Birmingham have you? They managed to leave part of a tool set under the bonnet of mine!!

Did you have a sniff, to see if it was, like ... used?

Day found a chunk of wood in the bay of his old car after being worked on at Renault. Fine, you may say.... apart from this piece of wood was used to wedge behind exhaust manifold which caused it to burn and smolder away under the bonnet

 

[Rich]

More than likely licked it and used it !

Some tech's are dumb as f**k. They must loose hundreds or even thousands of pounds worth of tools that way. No doubt accusing the other tech's they work with of pinching them if/when they realise the tools are missing.
