I have owned the Trophy for around 18 months and in this time
the car has been washed and waxed...
:lol: Forget the warning it should just electrocute them.... My dealer is just a waste of space.... Looking like another kick of session tomorrow for such an easy job.
Taking it the buzzing is normal - Just the throttole body as fly by wire?? Rather than manual like MK1
Just curious, My car is going back to Renault tomorrow to fnally get the creaking noise fixed... Only its 4th Trip to dealers!
Was under the bonnet this evening and noticed when the ignition is on there is a loud buzzing sound coming from the engine (Somewhere under the inlet manifold) Call...
Car is now booked in for a week Monday... Apparently they think its the Strut tops that need modifying. Hmmmm I'm not convinced this is the problem as doesn't make any noise whilst driving or steering... Any ideas?
Well been back to Renault today and they are now awaiting a call from Technical as they are puzzled as to what could be causing the noise.. Admittedly it is lots better since they replaced part the other week however I am a perfectionist! Iwill updated once they have had magic call!
The strange thing is it dont do it whn driving along or cornering, Car is sweet in thta sense. The noise only happens when going to pull away.

So its gonna be back to the stinking dealers again for me
Well went back this morning this time the Spanner monkey didnt have his ear plugs in so heard the noise!
Its booked in next week to get the part replaced apparently the drop link (Part of the suspension?

Well just as I expected they had the car all day and when I went to pick it up they said no fault found. Checked everything and as they were unable to replicate the issue / noise said unable to help. (However if the noise comes back and you cna demonstrate it we will take another look)
I...
Mine is back at the dealer for a similar issue tomorrow. Creaking noise but only when pulling away?! (Coming from same area) Will let you know how I get on :roll:
Wouldn't say fitting a tow bar is impossible as seem to remember someone posting a pic on here a while ago of a Trophy with a trailer :D
Admittedly I don't understand anyone who would do that!
Don't worry not parting with the beloved Trophy!!
Been a Renault Sport man for many a year - moving from the MK1 172 to my V6 and then onto the Trophy due to practicality reasons.
My other half kept the MK1 172 but now decided time to get rid, its been and still is an excellent car and...
