My broker was less than helpful in the end. I've had to do all of the legwork to get this claim sorted. Only this week have I had the money in my account. If you look at my original post date, you'll see that this is a f**king long time for a simple claim. If fault was disputed or I hadn't...

I think you will find that my query is not yet resolved. I'm waiting for a call from your "complaints" department but will email you some details to forward onto them, as nobody in your call centre would give me an email address or postal address.

Problem is I now have no car until they complete whatever investigation they need to do and then (if written off) give me a cheque. I think this is unacceptable as I pay for fully comp insurance so that in the event of an accident, I get a car. Will be having words today when their 'after claim'...

Can't afford to. The car needs 4 new tyres, 2 shocks, aux belt, et etc. Had the tyres ordered and booked to be fitted tomorrow but now have to cancel that I'm with brentacre insurance who use markerstudy as their underwriter

I thought much the same. Some geordie bird on the phone telling me the damage sounds terminal. Great that I now have at least 2 days sans car. What's the point of having insurance if I'm completely without transport until they can be arsed to assess the damage? If they write it off and take...

I had an accident earlier, completely my fault. Basically pulled out of my work car park, neglected to look right and clipped a passing car. It's torn my front bumper off and done some minor damage to the bonnet. Headlight is scratched. Possibly further damage underneath too but it does still...

That's a kick in the balls for me then :(

I've seen a few threads touching on this but no concrete answers. 195 tyres are a fair bit cheaper than 205... most of the online tyre companies assume that 195 is the correct size for standard 16" wheels on a 182 but the tyres I have currently are 205/45/16 and it seems this may be the...

Yes. I've learned my lesson. However circumstances make it difficult to use specialists as I need my car daily and the nearest us 40 miles away (519)

Went in this morning. They said they call valvoline direct for oil advice and they said there's 5 recommendations for the car, and 3 of them are 5w30. Idiots At least they are going to change it for free though.

Looks like it. Times like this I wish I had just rented a car for a few days and dropped the Clio off to Danny or you!!

They have miscalculated it though. 2.5x £50 = £125 not £150

2 injectors but yea, ridiculous. Apparently the diag took them a whole day... I know. They will not be happy to see me tomorrow.

So, 8 days and £430 later I have my car back. Not sure if you can see the image above in detail but they have put the wrong oil in, should be 5w40 not 5w30. I didn't realise until searching here when I got back. Car is going back in tomorrow, bet they'll be happy to see me. Will be seeking a...

Never noticed that before!!

Will call them in a min and ask to pick it up. I'll pay for what they've done so far and perhaps drop it off to you danny at some point

Right they have had the car since last Tuesday and I still haven't got it back They have said that since replacing: 1 injector Spark plugs (checked and they were the correct NGK ones) HT Leads it has now developed into a constant misfire and all 3 other injectors have failed when moved to...

Wait till I get my car (and the bill) first ;)

They're in between Far Cotton/Briar Hill (lovely area i know), next to that Crystal Motors place

Haha yes Danny. Times have changed I've been with the same girl for 6months!

Motorvation. Girlfriend uses them for her car and they haven't ripped her off....

Not been able to look under the car due to weather but it is running like a bag of spanners the majority of the time. Really lumpy idle. Will see what they say tomorrow. Wish I'd been able to take it to Danny or someone but due to circumstances had to use a local garage :(

Thanks Fred. I don't think this garage have the renault locking tools so they won't be able to check the timing properly - is that right? Rough cost on a MAP sensor?

Hi My 182 is in a garage as it kept giving me the flashing engine light + misfiring etc, especially when idling for any length of time. They tracked this down to a faulty injector, which was replaced with a genuine Renault part today. Apparently this made things slightly better. Now...
