Lowered Cars going in for a Renault service

[joyriderhazz]

Alright there, my car is going in for its 1st service soon at 18K, was wondering if they have any troubles when serviceing lowered cars, i.e getting on ramps ect. just wondering what other people hav experinced?

i have to reverse mine onto conventional ramps as overwise the splitter catches.

if its rediculously low then i suppose it would be sensible to raise the car first, but i dont feel i ever need to.

Wont be much of a problem.... unless you are very low on Coilovers.

Conventional spring lowering doesnt really get that low for ramps so no problems there.


Just check with them that if they DO damage it getting it on the ramp they will pay for splitter etc.....


Ive been to places who wont even let me on the normal ramp, ive seen what happens to other cars that try!

I had to raise mine for my MOT as i cudnt get into the brake test machine :|

they couldn't get mine on the lift, i had to get them to remove the pillow pad thingys

when mine went for 1st MOT about a month ago they had probs gettin it on the ramps - had to use wooden blocks but with them it was okay - just worried as mine is lowered 35mm and has front splitter ans side skirts - not alot of clearance on a ramp but it should be okay!
