Just been to kwik fit for an exhaust on 182

[Craig7777]

They wanted 732 pound for it with labour
Seems steep to me, are they a bunch of robbing c*nt
they said they had to get it from renault
Are they trying to have me pants down?
They also said a janspeed one was £495
Anybody know any for sale for cheap round yorkshire and derbyshire?
Cheers Craig

Sounds about right.

Do you mind noise? If not, yozzasport.

 

[Ali]

PMSL!!!!!! 732....is probably not far off the mark, however why you'd want to replace it beyond me. Go aftermarket.

 

[Craig7777]

Nice one
I don't mind noise lol
Just i know fcuk all about exhausts
How much are yozza's?

Kwik Fit tried to charge my mate £532 for a downpipe on a Saxo VTR - ROFL!

 

[Timmay]

An exhaust blowing would write my 182 off then!!

Does anyone know why you can't get direct replacements for the standard system made by other companies? Do Renault prohibit it?

In the past I've always had other systems put on cars by Kwik Fit etc.

Renault charge an arm and a leg for the OE system. Luckily I never have a car long enough to be out of warranty!

 

[Riggs.182]

you can get a orbisound for that money!!!!! NEVER go to kwik fit!!! they serviced my 182, a week later i check the oil n its dry! My fiancee gets her type r serviced and they disable the vtech! had to pay honda £40 to fix it!

 

[Craig7777]

My managing director told me to go there and put it on the company account, i went back to him with that price
I don't think he will be dealing with them again
How much should 2 michelin tyres be for a 182?
Anybody know? they quoted me £230

 

[Brooky182]

Have you had a look on mytyres or blackcircles. The tyres dont sound to expensive from memory.

I would go to kwik fit for anything but tyres and thats only if i had 2.

 

[Alex]

Dude, dont go to kwikfit for anything FFS!

They'll rip you off and bodge your car.

Sounds about right for the tyres there. They quoted me £120 each when I had to buy one when I got a puncture.

Costco do them for £86 each fitted.

kwik fit are robbin gypsy's id never go there. they tried to tell my girlfriend at the time she needed a timing belt for her ka. funny seeing as they dont have timing belts its a chain.

 

[Christopher]

£732?!?1!

fabricated by hand, in Inconel then? Hmm

Milltek or Yozzasport should be your very next phone call.

 

[Neil G]

PMSL at that quote

I didn't think you could get exhuasts for 172/182s at kwik fit at all

 

[Christopher]

[Craig7777]

[R20 CWH]

Knowsit !!

I hate that place. Their ad's for tyres make me laugh 'yeah were knocking 20% off of the price' - yeah good one ! Your prices are more than 20% more than practically everyone else anyway :dapprove:

 

[Fred@BTM]

crikey! centre section is only £100+vat from renault

1 clamp is £20+vat
2 clamp is £5+vat

 

[Tay]

Check out the for sale section, Maz has a Magnex one for sale got to be better than OE one & a damn sight cheaper than Kackfit !

not financially worth doing for them as on paper they would sell very few and due to its fairly complex design development cost would be pretty high i imagine.
