Servicing...

[Harpham]

I will be getting the 172 serviced next month (along with my MOT :S )
Im going to be getting all the bits for the service, so that I know the garage will be using good quality stuff.
Can everybody recommend me parts and the brands for the things I will need:

- Oil Filter (Standard Renault?)
- Pollen Filter (Standard Renault again?)
- Oil

I dont need an air filter as I only changed that the other week, and brakes are being changed before the MOT aswell.

Can people recommend what oil to use? and is there anything that I have missed out?

I'm sure you could just request the garage use Renault Original parts?

Theyre doing me a discounted price if I get the parts that I want to use (and its peace of mind aswell, ill definately know that theyre putting good quality parts onto my car).

have you got the service book? it's all in there, but is dotted about, so need to be careful/thorough

is it NWP who sell service kits, with all OE parts?

'recommended' oil is 5/40

Go for the NGK oem ones, cheapest I found was £8.50 each from GSF but think they are cheaper ones online.
