    the parts are the expensive bits, labour is reasonable, garage looked at prices and also the viability of getting a local machine shop to repair the head, but then figured that the time taken to strip and replace valves, seats cams etc, machine any damage the KTec price of £836 for a complete...

    Steering Wheel melt, replace or re cover?

    Speedline Turini centre caps

    I have bought a set of Speedline Turini's in Anthracite, I have been told that the Renault Centre caps as fitted to the Trophy Turinis's will not fit mine as they are a slightly different size! is this true. I could believe this as I had a Prodrive Impreza a few years back and the only place...

    182 Miltek from Ktec

    I fitted a Milltek cat back in November, bought from K-Tec. was changing the rear hangers a couple of weeks ago and noticed that the welds on the two back boxes had started cracking. Called Milltek, they admitted that there had been a bad batch. Next morning I had a brand new back section...

    K-Tec Group N ECU

    Thanks Lads, I have emailed K-Tec asking about it,but the website gives data about a standard car, I was wondering whether they could alter the map according to my car (without it being present,the mods are not radical), or if the ecu would be more generic for a standard car.I dont know...

    HEATER PROBLEMS

    I had that problem in December, it was the heater resistor. It's £99 from your local Renault Dealer, I didn't have time to look online. Another issue could be that the brushes in the motor are goosed,which in Renault speak would mean a new motor,but if you can get the motor out a domestic...

    heater fan question

    How old s your car / mileage etc. I just had to replace the heater resistor on my 05 182,but it's only done 27000 miles.It could be if your car is a higher mileage and the AC on all the time that the brushes in the motor need replaced, an auto electrician can do that or buy the brushes from a...

    Tow bars?

    even the prospect of trying to discuss this with NU insurance is enough to put me off,somebody in Bombay is hard enough explaining what a cup pack is....need to change insurers to anyway!

    Tow bars?

    So what you are saying is that I am going back to a Subaru then....now how do I break that one to the wife!...but is having one fitted illegal or using a bike rack illegal or is it only illegal if you tow something? may be easier to buy a different car!
