Nope.

Are they on here? As a trader or a user?

People who know knows. I am not an unresonable person but didn't expect to get a faulty engine paying that amount of money

The thing is, people make mistakes. It’s just part and parcel of being a human being. But not everyone seems to be able to own their mistakes, and it’s how mistakes are rectified that shows the kind of human you are.

Be very wary letting someone else touch the engine before sending it back, as that more than likely will totally void the warranty, as right now they say there isn't an issue, very easy to switch blame.

I'd only use someone else should the problem not get resolved, you won't be able to visually see the issue without a certain amount of strip down.

I understand peoples respect of garages so as not to stain their reputation. But can we please agree, this f**king sausage at Beaniesport needs outing as a c**t?

As a collective - and quite frankly - amazing forum, owe it to ourselves and new members to out this f**king chode smoking ferret that needs swerved like me on Tinder circa 2012-2016?

I accept people make mistakes but throughout the whole experience, I felt like not being treated as it should be. There are details I don't wish to expose yet.

Well all we can hope for is a good outcome on your behalf mate.

I think often people don't want to call out the garage as they don't want them catching wind of it through a forum before the issues been resolved.

Definitely churning out some terrible work though

Aye they are f**king throbbers. And it stuns me that they’re still advertising their retardation.

Did @Sheilas’ Wheels get his issue sorted with them?

Seem like a bunch of cowboys from some posts on here.

Hopefully you get something sorted and they fix it, but prepare yourself for a long wait.

My mates and I have decided to join CSF 2025. Hopefully, my Clio will be ready in time. Looking forward to meeting everyone there! 😞

Good man!

Being to gentle on a new engine can be as bad as ragging it to death
You need a little load when running in a engine
Other wise the bores go glazed
We get this a lot when people over size their generators and don’t load them up enough
And it glazes over the bores and you get the engine burning oil
Sometimes if you catch it soon enough and load the engine up it slowly stops burning oil

Nope. Not used the car since. I can’t. 😂

I don't believe it's a new engine though, existing engine that's allegedly been rebored I think.

It’s not a new engine but I have no idea where the donor engine comes from and mileage

Swap you 😘

Have you heard anything from the garage? @Tony_HH

What an absolute cluster f….

Definitely be onto beanie sport until they get it fixed. That’s just poor unless there is a genuine reason it’s now drinking more oil which there isn’t….

For info - My 182 before it decided to explode the Conrods at snetterton mid quali never drank that much oil and my Clio 200 doesn’t drink any noticeable oil and it’s only used to go racing. As people have said the f4r engines are actually pretty decent on oil consumption so sooner you complain and keep complaining until it’s fixed the better…

Good luck getting it sorted

My forged R26 was built by a different well known tuner, within a few miles, was chucking oil all over the rear of the car, was told...it will bed in...it didn't!..Came back, turbo failed within 3000 miles. Turbo replaced, but said I had to pay the £1800 bill. Second Turbo failed at 900 miles. My local garage removed it, told me it was a cheap Chinese one. Now have a Garrett turbo, and no more problems. I have had dealings with a few others, who have had engine failures, after so called rebuilds. I will not name the tuner, as I cannot be bothered with all the reactions.

RS Tuning by any chance?

You don't need to say, just drop a like if you think my guess is right

If I know things will go that bad, probably will break the car in first place. Exhausted and sad looking at the Clio sitting on the driveway

I am very lucky that I have a garage here in NE Scotland, that will tackle anything, and do a first class job. You need to find someone that is trustworthy, and a good mechanic. Stick with it young man, you will get there in the end.

Not RST, but for other reasons, I would not use them.
