Well seeing as the weather was to nice just to sit in me and a mate decided to test out my recently recon'd dampers thanks to BG Motorsport, by doing the ButterTubs pass and then heading to Ribble Head Viaduct, Thwaite, Haws then Ingelton and back home. It was a fantasic drive out and the Trophy...
Just rolled over the 36k mark and was after some guidance on where to take the trophy for its due service.
I live in the west middlands, near Wolverhampton and have a choice of neighbouring main dealers but feel that the treatment and price would be much more attractive from a RS specialist...

I've owned no less than three Type R's before my T. Infact, even my first car was a Type R and so I don't doubt for a second that this 'machine' will be an...
I have recently bought my 182, but don't have a clue how to work the cruise control! Unfortuately the only manuals that came with the car in the wallet were in a different language.
Can anyone help me with step by step instructions how to work it please?
Thanks Carly
Hi everyone,
Just thought I'd come on and say Hi while I'm looking at 182's and Trophys as my next car.
I'm a regular on the RenaultSport forum so i'm sure some of you will know me from there.

Have any of you Trophy owners out there got a Yozzasport system on your car, and is it really as 'LOUD' as some of the forums make out?
I have gone round the houses with my exhaust choice and now looking at the yozza, as the build quality looks excellent and there does'nt seem to be any bad...
its on the verge of going despite me being carful.
what i would really love is to get the original one re stitched in black Swede but no doubt this is near impossible and no-one could do it. ???
how much in a new one?? (rolls eyes, oh lord)
Hey. :D
Ive just had these fitted to the Trophy along with the powerflex dogbone mount.
I decided to buy these mounts because while back I had my car put on the RR and I was shocked by the amount of movement from the Engine under acceleration and when backing off the pedal at high revs. The...
Not the front ones :lol: :lol:
The rears ones removed from my Trophy last week :)
One was brand new in january 2009, the other sometime last year iirc
One was replaced sometime as a result of the repairs carried out on the car and the other was replaced this year when i bought the car...
right.
in the old clio (flame red) i colour coded the dash trims and put on a black 'air bag' decal. it was hot.
so i was thinking with the Trophy do the same, But wait i here you cry, what about the steering wheel badge,AH, well thats where i need your help. i don't do things by halves...
Hi
I will change my steering wheel with a new one (Toora competitione "pole").
I would like also to ask if there is a guide with pictures about how to remove the steering wheel with the Airbag, how to fix the resistence (how many ohms?) to switch off the warning light on the dash board.
if...
... does anyone know of a way or a company to fashion the buttons off the steering wheel into a switch the mount on the dash somewhere, that doesn't look as if it's been done by blue peter?
Seriously considering getting a better steering wheel but don't want to loose CC.
As you may be aware my Trophy is now fully stripped inside, only thing remaining is the heater matrix, clocks and steering column, so everything else is up for grabs, the recaro seats went last week but everything else is still there, some of it is in 1st class condition some of it not (just...
084 came from it's previous owner with these inserts, the finish on them is first class with silver renaultsport decal on the steering wheel insert, matching silver gear layout symbol on the knob insert, and a matching silver 'trophy' decal on the passenger insert in proper trophy font. The...

A Crash Diet.........
Seeing as it's only a track car (still drives to the tracks though) i decided that anything that could be removed was removed, i suppose i should have posted a pic, but the garage is full so most of the panels ete are just...
OK a few things have changed and my Anniversary is up for sale.
We bought the car from a Fireman who got it from his local VW Dealership with just over 1K Miles on the clock and kept it for the next 6 years,The car has only ever been serviced from the same VW Main dealer he got the car from and...
changed discs and pads all round last week and today i was parked on a slope and my abs, sercice and traction control light came on? went off when i drove off!!! any ideas? ta
Hi all, hope i'm posting in the right place. Picked up my trophy no. 108 on sunday, noticed in the past few days a whine or whiring noise which to me sounded like a pulley bearing...on searching this site someone mentioned the idler bearing, i presume on the aux belt, on their trophy was causing...
Hi,
I am thinking of buying a trophy but I am unsure what the noise levels of the car are during cruising.
Bearing in mind that the car is lighter than the competition I would have thought that the redundant weight was removed by removing the heavy sound insulation?
Does anyone have a dB meter...
This lamp has just come on I have tried the test mode on the dash (press the end of the stalk when turning on ignition)
the only thing indicated is a letter t = injection fault for more than 4 secs
Do you think this will cause any damage as I have a track day booked for tomorrow and no chance of...
Hello, I have recently changed my dash inserts and gear knob insert as they had scratchs on them and the gear knob had alot of wear. I got them off a mate but they are more of a bright silver instead of being a darker one....does anybody know the colour so I can repray them?
Cheers
Hey,
does anyone know the name of the manager/director of Renault UK, gotta send a letter to him with reference to a complaint about a local Renault garage which decided to take my car on a jolly when i told them they couldn't!!!!
i know his name has been mentioned on here before but cant find...
Was just on my way to work the other day and the SERV and Traction control light came on?? also something esle was lite up but was more focused on the SERV lite. I wasn't driving fast, once I pulled up into work turned the car off - I turned it back on again and the light was out?! :? any...
