  197 cup
lol yup the gearbox has been supposedly fixed 3 times and yet i sill hav to let the car tick over for bout 5 mins when its cold b4 itll go into gear. and the misfire u can hear as if its coming through the right exhasut liuke a puffing noise but when u put ur had to the exhaust its quite powerfull and the car is nw loosin power through the rev range and its very noticible but the renault manager is refusing to look into the problem any further as he says there is no error code when they run the diagnostic check so i explained to him that all he had to do was stand with me outside the car and he would hear i which he refused to do. ARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH HELP!!!!!!!!

i will phone them mate cheers but im just worried the manager i spoke to just tells them them same crap hes told me that because its nt showing a fault then there isnt one when ther clearly is lol. u gt any idea wat it may be thats causing it
 
Dont worry mate, it may take time but they will sort it. I have literally just got off the phone with them about a matter that start way back in June, but finally we have all the issues resolved and my car is getting the treatment it deserves! RUK are the most powerful tool in your arsenal at this time, and if you take the time to explain the issue, and show you know a little about what your talking about, it all helps. Maybe offer to take a video and send RUK a youtube link to it so they can see the issue to? It all helps mate.

Make a stand! Sounds like the t**t manager needs to man up and accept something is wrong. Don't give up!

As said above .
Phone Renault UK. anything you cant get sorted with your dealership, R UK look into it.
My friend wasn't getting his bolster fixed through the dealer in Edinburgh he bought it from even though it was only months old. R UK got it sorted out for him and did not accept the dealers rubbish excuses.
It may take abit of time but take up your issues with them and hope you get on alright.
Keep us posted. :)
 
I know the feeling. Renault Ayr are SH..E and all I wanted was a few parts!

Ring the bell, the boy comes out and starts scribbling a list of parts that I needed up his arm...:rofl:

Try a different garage? Renault Pollockshaws near silverburn is one of the RS specialists in scotland. They may take more interest in it?

Maybe pop along to to the Renaultsport.co.uk forum too if you haven't already.

There's a few members on their who work for RUK who are usually really helpful with this sort of thing.

Your experience of Parks doesnt surprise me, they were extremely unhelpful and border line useless last year when I had a few issues with workmanship, so Id go with what people have said here, RUK is your best port of call.

Diarise all dealings, write all facts and who you spoke to and identify what areas of the service are substandard and what the dealer has offered or done to rectify. The fundamental facts are what you need to present to RUK to get any joy of assistance and a helping hand towards the resolution of the issues you have encountered.

chaz cup thats wat theyve did with mine twice with the gearbox oil reverse and first was my issues 2 bu sadly the new oil seems to work for about a week bud u will be back with the same s.hit. again i must say cheers for all the advice lads hopefully it all helps to rectify my issues

gouldy keeny is the foreman at ayr and he services my cars for me although i dont want to bother him with all these issues with my car as i don feel i should have to drive to ayr and have to call in favours to get my fundamental rights as a customer from renault if u know wat i mean
 
  197 cup
spoke to renault uk this morning at great lenghts about the issues with the car the guy i spoke to was very very helpull if only renault dealers could be as helpfull as renaul uk lets hope is the start of my issues getting resolved
 
  197 cup

We have no decent dealers in central Scotland it seems. Had many run in's with Ruk over dealers attitudes (mostly parks) regrading issues with a year old Twingo rs

Had one dealer. Parks. Wont say which Parks though, That on a road-test for heavy steering done 67mph in a F*****g 30! Never reported him as i thought they wouldnt believe me. I know the speed as i was a passenger btw. Needless to say i wasn't happy with him!:mad:

Not surprised on the refurb thing, Renault Birminghams body shop ruined my alloys. They are being replaced now by another dealership thanks to RUK.
