damper

Just been looking at these with the idea of fitting them. 1. The front one does not bolt directly to the existing bulkhead or chassis, indeed it seems to come with self tapping (?) screws ? Secondly there's no way it fits over the existing stuff on the passenger side top mount. And of what...

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum :D apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong section... I'm on the lookout for a Trophy, and I am presently at the "scouring the classifieds" stage :lol: any advice on the best places to look ? I spotted this one on pistonheads, but after a quick search, I...

Hi Guys My Trophy appears to have just started making a "clicking" noise when you pull away. Its still under warranty but just wanted to know if this was a common thing so i could perhaps relay some feedback to renault. Thanks

Right as an owner of a Trophy for the last few months we have all seen the horror stories surrounding the front dampers & the costs from the stealers involved in replacing them. Whilst looking into the dampers, you soon realise why they are 'so' good. Not your usual bolt on upgrade, but top...

fix that ECU bracket by simply putting 2 washers behind the M10 nut, holding it in place...problem sloved

Hello all, I am posting on here due to a serious problem I am having at the moment with Renault regarding the suspension on my Trophy. The front right damper has cracked causing it to leak and it therefore needs replacing. Unfortunately, both my dealership and Renault Customer Services have...

The part number for the ECU bracket that breaks is 7701471821, so Renault Mill Lane Aldershot say, but I don't know if I believe them. If you book the T into a dealer to have the bracket repaired under warranty this is the number to quote in advance for the part. Just had my entire morning...

A courier delivered these boys to work yesterday :) They've been given a quick clean, next job is to remove the springs so i can deal with the rust in the bottom of the "cup"

Is there any other cantact other than 'racecardoctor' who specialise in rebuilding sachs dampers? I would like to take it to 'racecardoctor' but its just too far.

I am going to be selling a set of five 18" Buddy Club P1 SF Gunmetal alloys with very good Yokohamas fitted. They are in virtually new condition as I had them repainted as they had transfers laquered on them. Tyres in good shape. Price new is £180 each incl VAT plus about £115+VAT for the...

any one had any problems with leaky front shocker? does renault cover these and how much are they?

Ive noticed the drivers side is lower than the passengers side!? the suspension is still solid as a rock. ive recently had the passenger side damper changed. Does anyone on here have any idea on what could be causing this ? all comments greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Tonight i went to the BP garage in shiremore, northeast, as i left i hit a pot hole on the exit of the forecourt, it felt like i had ran over a horse. Got about 300m down the road and knew a had a flat tyre, stopped and used 2 cans of tyre foam which just managed to get me home. On inspecting...

I decided to remove the pin from the dampers today. After doing some research from various 'Damper pin removal mod' posts I thought id give it a go. I did the drivers side no problem but when i came to do the passengers side the grub screw would not move, i tried some WD40 but it never worked...

driving my car this evening it felt a bit odd - like the front right suspension was muchsofter than the left. When I got out of the car and checked, sure enough it is much easier to push down one side of the car when you stand at the front and lean on the headlight. I can wobble the offside...

Have been half thinking about getting these; where do i get? how much? where do they fix?

Hello Everyone Many thanks already for the hundreds of tips and suggestions I've read so far. I don't actually own a Trophy yet but by the end of February I hope to have one nailed down. I was hoping I could get a little assistance from you all. Servicing: Clearly RenTech are the...

Can anyone recommend somewhere in the North West to get this done please?

I think not my friends! But...there may be a couple of hecklers.!! I dare you! If not, I've passed the test. 8) [edit: to spellcheck/correct]

Quite keen to try a Whiteline rear ARB on the Trophy, mostly read good reports. Any thoughts from anyone? Also note there is the start of a group buy over on the cliochav forum, sorry I mean cliosport. :wink:

Have noticed a slight creaking noise coming from the front of the car when initially moving off (either forwards or in reverse) with part lock of the steering applied. Its a very minor creak but have got #237 booked in to be inspected anyway. Anyone else had this? Any suggestions...

Sorry, probably been asked before but what are the advantages of doing this and how is it done please?

Driving to work this morning took me over 50k miles! How many others are there to have reached this? Think I have seen at least 2 others on here that have done 50k, and quite a while ago too. Must be a few more by now?

As one of the embarrassed enthusiasts who in trying to unpin the adjuster managed to break the adjuster shaft, I have just taken them off the car for reconditioning. The good news is that they were easy to remove and that the strut top nut (21 mm) was not difficult to undo. The top mount...

Hi guys the subject says it all. sure its on here somewhere but ,i cant find it :?: cheers
