My 133's due it's 6 year service which means cambelt. It's only done 32,000 but the service book says 72,000 or 6 years whichever comes first.
Just rang my local Renault service agent and they quoted me for the full/major 6 year service and cambelt change is £1334 inc vat, yes that's £1334!!!!! Told me it was an engine out job to replace the cambelt. 9.5 workshop hours to complete.
After picking myself up of the floor and umming and arring they dropped the price to £1150 inc vat which still seems something akin to daylight robbery - strange how you can drop almost £200 straight away, why not quote that to begin with?
Anyhow has anyone else been quoted the same and told it was an engine out job and does anyone know a decent garage in East Lancashire I could try for an alternative quote?
Thanks for looking.
