Servicing clio 182

[mark989]

Hi i have a 04 plate clio 182 it is currently at 14.5k milleage.

The service history so far is as follows:
- 15/2/05 full service at dealership
- 15/2/07 full service at dealership
- I bought the car in April 07
- I changed the oil cabin filter, air filter myself at 12.8k milleage due to the colour of the oil. (No stamp in book though)

Should i be servicing the car again now or wait another year for it to be 2 yearly?
Does the cam belt and aux belt need changing at the same time next year?

As i dont do many miles each year should i be servicing it 2 yearly?

Thanks,

Right it should be changed every 12k or yearly, whatever comes first so the next service should come 1 year since you last changed the oil.
Regardless of miles, it needs servicing 1 yearly.

As its 4 years old now you need to do a coolant change and prob a brake fluid change. Cambelt will be next year.

thanks very much, so really although i changed oil myself and it not in service book it doesnt need service (stamp wise) till next year, I will do coolant and brakes myself for peice of mind.

12k or 2 years but a lot of people change the oil every year! guess it depends how you use your car!

how can renault charge so much for a cam belt change?

the kit from them is 157 + vat
and the book time is 5 1/5 hours - thats belts, pullys and tensioner...
