Could someone help me with this please? Car has been into Renault dealer with a knocking problem from front drivers side. After having a new top mount fitted and both engine mounts replaced, Renault have now decided the problem is a weight/ballast located behind the front bumper which was moving...

Thanks mate, all sorted now. Code was Yellow dot & Purple dot

Does anyone know the correct colour code for cup springs? I've had a quote from Renault for new springs but I need to make sure they are quoting me for the correct springs. Thanks

Cup springs?? How old are they??

Well my 133 turned 6 yrs old last month so I knew id need to get the cambelt done even though it's only done 17000 miles. So along with a few other things needed like 4 new conti's, new water pump & aux belts, full air con service all done at Renault. The princely sum of £1300 Oh well at least...

Just installed some led bulbs in my sidelights and they look good so thought I'd do the same with my number plate lights. When I switched them on my fuse blew? The bulbs are the error free canbus type and don't cause any problems when they are installed in the interior lights but have blown the...

I think Renault are taking the piss, £98 for a drop link! Daylight robbery

Thanks very much mate

Was thinking of buying them from Renault and changing them myself, is there a torque setting for them?

Same thing is happening with mine too, wobble slightly to the right at very slow speeds. The faster I drive then the wobble dissipates. If I let go of the wheel it pulls slightly to the right. I know I need new tyres soon so I'm hoping this solves the problem.

Yes it sounds very good. Website says they do a same day service too? Fortunately my cup alloys are fine at the moment but I have some megane alloys I bought cheap to use as winter wheels, they need to be refurbed so I might try this place?

Which dealer did you use? I've been using Renault Bolton for the last 4 yrs now but £699 is a bit expensive. Mine is due this September so need to start saving as I think it's gonna need 4 new tyres too. Ouch!

I apologise in advance if I've posted this in the wrong section. There is an offer on Livingsocials for wheel refurb at Midlands Alloy Wheel Refurbishment. It's based in Birmingham and the offer is for 1 wheel £25 or 2 wheels £49 or 4 wheels for £90. I haven't used them so I can't say what the...

Glad to see your Gordini is looking as good as ever, don't forget to give us first shout if you come to sell it. Would love one so immaculate.

To be honest with you Alex, I was quite surprised that Renault UK paid for 75% of mine seeing as my car is now 5 yrs old. They didn't agree with me when I said it was a common fault and they said it was wear & tear but agreed to contribute because they said given the cars mileage, it was...
