They genuine Renault parts mate?

 

[3000GT_PILOT]

Not sure to be honest, they didnt say and i forgot to ask!

Serice is a reasonbale price
Cam kit is about right
Pump about right
Sounds like there copycat parts but there cheaper than Renault so I wouldn't complain.
Wheel clyinders I take it they mean hub bearings? Can be cheaper to get second hand hubs but that no big thing.
Cat and fitting is about right prices.
I'd say there about reasonable prices you can do a lot of it yourself though could have saved a fair bit I'd have just asked them to do the cambelt and service and tell you what else needed fixing and do it yourself if you've somewhere to work.

Yeah agree with edde mate, even if non-genuine, they're cheap enough :approve:

I work in the motor parts industry and it seems dear for some bit's and cheap for others,the cam kit seems cheap,is that a cam shaft kit or a cam belt kit.Cylinders and cat seem very expensive will look at work tomorrow but then again these will be retail prices and not cost which i'm used to paying,you soon forget how much joe public have to pay for there bits.

What par of the country you from?

 

[3000GT_PILOT]

from Northants - the wheel cylinders are £13 on GSF and the cat is £94!

i think i'll get them to do the cambelt/tensioners/pump and i'll do the rest.

 

[BRUCE182]

That's more like it,forgot to look at work but they are much better prices.
