Please can people give me their experiences with the infamous 4k rattle. I am really p####ed off, just been unto Kings of Taunton and they want 400 odd quid to sort and say it is not covered by warranty - when I know it is. I have just sent stroppy e-mail to Renault customer services...

Under harsh acceleration (what else!!) my Cup makes a squealing noise at 4K revs-$.24K revs in 2nd 3rd 4th and possibly 5th (cant hear it in 5th for obvious reasons!) Can anyone tell me what this might be pleaee? It sounds like a belt might be slipping but noyhing seems to be malfunctioning...

Anyone considering this option? I love the cup to bits but need more space for the golf clubs. I would miss the performance but it looks like the new RS Megane should keep up. Smae performane as a BMW330i but for £12K less! My local dealer has no specific info. on price but has given me a...

Can anyone give me an idea of a ball park cost for this please? Cheers

Can anyone help please? I have just noticed that iI have lost dipped beam on one of my headlights. Can anyone tell me what bulb I need and is this covered under warranty - seeing as though the car is only 10mths old (20000miles)? Car is parked 1mile away from work - so cant just nip out to...

Can anyone give me an idea as to how much a front set of pads should be fitted please for a 172/cup (20000 miles sound a bit horse!) Cheers

popped over to Jersey at the weekend and saw a Jersey registered cup. Anyone on here? I waved and he waved back - looked like he was a bit shocked to see another one on such a small island! Great place to take the motor even though there are many speed limits (max 40mph on one dual...

Has anyone had trouble with these (the grip things on the steering wheel). Mine are coming loose and one of them the rubber has ripped. I presume these are covered by the warranty? Please advise anyone? Cheers

Took the cuo in for its first 12000 mile service yesterday £140 incl VAT Break pads are only 45% worn either side, tyres still have 3mm tread left on front 6mm on back (unbelievable I know) and the oil they used was Castrol Magnatex. This is a complete result as I drive the car flat out...

Is anyone collecting these? I am prepared to do swaps (in order to try and win a car as I have many duplicate cards. (ps there is nothing wrong with current car - would just like a £65K motor to do the mundane journey to work each day lol) trying to keep the mileage down on the Cup!

This old chestnut again............... I know everyone keeps going on about this boring age old argument,but if the 172 and Cup are meant to have exactly the same engine spec why does the 172 red line at 6750rpm (indicated on rev.counter) and the Cup at 7250 rpm (indicated on rev. counter)...

Does anyone else experience a rather unconcerting noise when theyve turned the ignition off or when its on idle after a bit of a blast? It sounds a bit like someone hitting the underneath of the car on the exhaust with a small hammer (probably about twice a second going down to once every 2...

See Demon Tweeks on line and get a Sparco Universal backrest cushion for lumbar support (£8 + VAT and P&P) and a Headrest Cushion (£17 + VAT and P&P). Stick to existing seat with velcro. This transforms a fairly uncomfortable seat into a full on race seat (Probably now the best seat I have...
