Mine had exactly the same issue last year at the MOT. Replaced them with something that was more up to the job instead of the French cheese they fit instead of brakes! :)
For me it was bad steering when going over un-even roads. And a knocking noise at slow speed as the front of the car bounced lightly up and down on an uneven road surface. Saying that though, since having them replaced the handling has never been the same so I guess I need a refurb. I will...
I've heard too they need headlight washers as the light is so bright it could dazzle someone driving the opposite way if a spec of dirt/bug/poo/etc was on the headlight. Hence why they automatically spray the headlights every now and then when you spray the windscreen.
Radio was working fine, used it last night on the way home from work, no problems at all. Parked the car at home, radio still on, turned the ignition of as normal. No issues.
However...
This morning on my way to work, started the car expecting to hear the radio come on automatically but it...
Reading the list of things you needed and getting to the bit where you said your local Renault dealer wants... I was expecting much more then they quoted you... Still not cheap though.
I've heard good things about the Prospeed ones. Not had one myself though.
I did have a Janspeed on mine before the Orbisound and that was good, gave a tone you knew was there but wasn't OTT when on motorways. What ever you choose I wouldn't go back to a Reno one as it will only fall apart in...
I had a similar thing with mine, checked the tyre pressures at the weekend and they were slightly down on the front. Put a bit more air in them and it seems to have sorted it out. I did have the tracking checked a while back, as said, it would be worth getting this checked out.
i would like to be brave enough to attempt this but I would be worried it would damage something.
Am I right in thinking you clean it with the engine running too? Never known if thats correct or not.
The gap marked in the photo will get smaller as gas leaks from the damper. 5mm is normal, if it's touching (as in the metal arm holding the external reservoir is touching the casing of the reservoir) then this means your shock is out of gas and needs to pay a trip to BG for a service. If you...
My head hurts just reading that! :D Well if you need one then I can pop up the A34 this weekend or something, give you the mounts at the same time. Then you can drop the reader back when you're done.
