Re: why are renaults so s**t! My Clio DCI 100 was absolutely trouble free over 85000 very hard miles. Perhaps i was lucky. I would visit Rentech in Portsmouth a fair distance i know but incorporate it with a few days break . I used to take mine for routine servicing despite a 600 mile...

Maybe try Tesco Express or better still Pets at Home.

Probably a renault dealer or a breakers.

Re: The b*****ds keyed my car! Makes no difference whether theres a sign up or not. Hotel has no responsibility for damage thats beyond their control. If the same happened at Tescos the doctors surgery in the high street a pub car park etc etc do you think these organisations would cough...

They"re also commonly known as "Ditch Finders" !!!!!!!!

If you like wheels like a 50p piece thats fine!!!!

Instead of all the *****ing around, three pages so far, why not leave the standard dynamique wheels on which are fine. Save your pennies for essential repairs and servicing. Otherwise make a decision on what suits you not anyone else. Your car your wheels etc.

There seems to be an obsession in uk with low mileage cars. A well maintained high mileage car is usually better than a low mileage school run/shopping trolley that never sees normal working temperature. Ive bought high mileage ex fleet/lease cars in past with no problem. In fact two of...

Not for the Clio but my weekend toy a Mazda MX5 needs some rust/ corrosion dealing with on one of the sills. Want a proper repair not a quick tidy up/bodge job. Anyone had dealings with a body specialist car renovators in the north west. Thanks.

You dont need to raise the vehicle on mine to do an oil change a 2004 Dci 100. As for the plastic cover underneath there is a circular cut out to gain access to sump plug so no need for its removal. I find a cat litter tray for a couple of quid fits nicely underneath to catch the old oil...

If 195/50/15 are cheaper than 185/55/15 and do a better job why arent they original manufacturer fitment. Seems a bit odd. Particularly on cost terms.

My profuse apologies. How could i say such a dangerous thing. At the end of the day its a major worry that rear wiper doesnt function in reverse gear. Shant sleep trying to figure it out.

Strange that mine only works when the stalk is in the auto wipe setting that is second position down.

You said yours doesnt have the auto wipers. So youve answered your own question the auto rear wipe function in reverse is a feature of the auto wipers. No auto wipers no auto rear wipe.

I wouldnt bother whenever ive changed my fuel filter just pumped the primer bulb a few times and then started. may run lumpy for a few seconds but then ok. Never needed to bleed its a self bleeding system anyway.
