Wiring loom harness and Spark plugs/remap

[crooky1986]

Apparently it needs all of this work carrying out, loom harness covered on warranty whereas spark plugs and remap are not. The latter they said would cost £100...for frickin spark plugs?!

IIRC Renault charge £20 each for spark plugs...

 

[crooky1986]

will it actually make that much difference?

 

[thedoc]

if you're existing spark plugs are f.ked, then replacing them will be noticable

Wiring loom is warently (assuming your car is under warently otherwise you'll have to see if you can get a % payment from Reault goodwill).

Spark plugs since your cars not a 172 are only check £15 or so from halfords etc the 172/182 ones are expensive ones.

Why do you need a remap if the ECU maps are broken the like the loom its under warently and you'd realy notice a propeblme you only need a remap to get the fueling right if you've got aftermarket cams etc done if they need to reload the normal maps its under warently or a good will payment from Renault would be expeced or if you have to pay then it shouldn't be much.

i think he means a reflash

sounds like you have a 1.2 16V???

 

[crooky1986]

yup

 

[Fred@BTM]

plugs from the dealer are cheap

tell them to bugger off about the reflash, that is a warranty claim

whats the age/milage of the car??
