any of the small ones will be fine, stick to genuine parts, sure your mate will do just as good a job.

its the 24,000 mile service................i didnt notice it needed a service because i thought the "SERV" light comes on but i found out that the "SERV" light means somthing else :S



By soon on the warrenty i mean at the end of the month i think





Mike will i be able to get it stamped in the service book from an outside enginer / service centre?? or is it just from Renault?

My friend fitted my old polo GTI with genuine pands and disks for £160.......VW wanted £260

Is the 24,000 service for a Mk 2 172 a big one??? Renault want £250 for it
