Seriously mini don't even bother, he wont listen.

Should just be locked and stickied.

Then when his inevitable "My mate says he can rebuild my engine for £50 and a stella" thread is posted that can be stickied just underneath it.

There should be a thread stickied with freds pictures of snapped belts and belt change bodge jobs he's seen. James if you want to save a few quid get the Gates timing belt kit, the renault aux belt kit and take it to somewhere like Birchdown.

Well, some serious words of wisdon from you guys.

I definatly need to get this done, and tbh its something i should have done earlier.
I thort it was just a few of you renault boffins who took it abit far but it appears i was a little foolish in not listning.

The guy who said he would do it for £100 isnt just some teenager who wants to make a quick ton. Hes done hundreds of cambelts before and it was just my estimate at the tools being £60 after speaking to him he again said It would be more like £90

What do you reckon?

Get someone who knows there way around an RS, Will your friend be stamping the service book as well?

I had all mine done at NW Performance end of last month and was a spot on job and not far from you at all!

Unbelievable.

Just take the belt off and start the engine. Belts are mostly for show, anyway. Devil's work to keep dealership's pockets lined.

Do what you want, if you don't want to do them then don't.

You really don't sound like you want to, it is up to you. If they survive till sale time, don't tell us and brag about it. Similarly, if your engine gets f**ked, don't tell us and ask for help & advice.

I have a belt you could use. It's a bit old and tatty, the buckles in good nick though. Should be fine.
 
Awesome. So you raved on about how you managed to get a very low mileage minter, and now you don't want to spend the cash properly maintaining it. Great stuff.

You amaze me tbh. Time and time again you said you had had it done and tbh I think a lot of us thought it was probably a lie at the time...(Iknow I did) You don't seem to be able to help your self lol.
Quick example in this thread..

"As for me "spending all my money on mods"

Lowering Springs - £10
Cliosport stickers - £8 total
Tow eye - Christmas present
Megane splitter - £3
Sound system - From previous car

so i dont think thats the issue.



Conveniently forgot the good few hundred you spent buying then fetching your cup spoiler then getting it sprayed....

I'm not sure it's worth anyone recommending a place to get your belts done because you will probably either not get them done or will go to a completely different and probably stupid place to what your told to do.:slap:
