new clios have top sp?ecs

[christian rea]

does anyone now if the new clios come with tyre pressure sensors like the lagunas because i nwent in a 51 reg laguna privalidge and its spec was way beter than anyclios i now

 

[Peperami]

You'll get more for your money on lagunas for sure.

Its big car depreciation.

 

[bmh.01]

Plenty to go wrong as well.

The new shape Clio has it as a £250 option.

Its standard on the Clio Initial though!

 

[Josh@Renparts]

usually come with a few extras as theyre more of a long distance cruiser. Tire pressure sensors are much more trouble than they are worth.

 

[Peperami]

Why would you want tyre pressure sensors anyway???

 

[christian rea]

to tell me when my tyres are low gd gadgets

Yep, if they are the in wheel ones most tyre places will smash f**k out of them and if they are abs fed we all know what renault are like with abs...

Also i dont really see the point of TPS on non runflat tyres, can tell if its flat

 

[clionoob]

tpms are shi** end of lol,they ALWAYS start to leak from the valve and then cost a fortune to replace!

Exactly, what a gimmick. Made for lazy people who can't be asked to use a tyre pressure guage themselves.

 

[Kiev85]

was this not a common problem on lagunas...? faulty tyre sensors...

 

[christian rea]

im a mechanic i just think its a very gd safety feature because if your tyres are flat or low it can cause a blow out

 

[Alan]

Tyre pressure monitors are a farce, my old mans megane has them, they are sh1t...

As for the mechanics point of view...really??

I've seen the way some of you lot go about your work..deary me..

IIRC they've also been pulled as an option on the new clio.

 

[R20 CWH]

waste of time, id avoid, spend the money on something worthwhile on the options list

 

[Mark One]

They are, pretty s**t. Had a laguna rent a car on hols, it couldnt make up it's mind how much pressure was in the tyres.

Lagunas are really bad. Poorly thought out climate control and radio/nav, and poor levels of grip to go with. Although body roll is acceptable.

Yep the sensors are a bit rubish plus need chnaging now and again anaywa.
