Which engine oil should i use for my clio williams?
Only 45k miles on the clock.
I can't remember the oil I use just now although its elf, just want to check I am using the right stuff.
What do you guys recomend? Fully or semi synthetic?
HELLO I'M NEW
What engine oil should i use for my clio williams?
Reg vardy are a waste of time, they are suppose to be the dealership for Renault yet don't have a clue about which engine oil to use for the sport version cars!
They don't even stock Elf or Total engine oil!
I'm looking to get my service done and geometry setup sorted by Mark Fish Motorsport and i've bought some of the much hyped Silkolene Pro S for the oil change, but i'm worried this will invalidate the warranty as it's not a Renault recognised part?
Apparently, they need to see receipts for all...
Is this any good as been quoted £36 for oil change using this oil.
I have to supply genuine filter & sump washer. ATS :!:
Renault want £50 + i have to supply my own oil!
What you think :?:
I am just coming up to my 12k service and I have been quoted £221.47 by my dealer!! I personally think thats a bit steep!
Do you invalidate your warranty if you go elsewhere to get it serviced? If not then does anyone know of somewhere decent around the Salisbury area?
It was £121.23 with me providing the oil. What has everyone else paid? It has only just clocked up 10,000 miles but I have decided to get it done early.
Also, how many miles have you had from the front tyres before having to replace them?

I tried to buy oil for my Trophy from Renault Ilford. TOLD NO OIL 2 WEEK WAIT. Can you believe it? I asked how they service cars without oil The parts bloke said they buy in from Halfords for 182s. :roll:
Where else can I get Elf oil or is there alternative?
Help would be appreciated :)
Had the 1st 12000 miles service on friday, luckily i didnt pay for the service because when i picked it up the guys in the garage had spilt petrol in the car and it stank, so as a good will gesture they picked up the cost.
Also, any ladies/gents had the problem with the spray paint rubbing...
this might sound quite lame but are there any sites that sell the renault sport stickers and the elf stickers i think theyd look quite smart above the 2.0ltr 16v sign on the door
Ooooh the time is rapidly approaching that i'm going to need to take the car in and have a service done.
Are you guys planning to take the car to Renault or another garage to have the service done.
I've heard that having the service done outside Renault will no longer invalidate the...
After months of waiting our local Tesco's have just got the 99 RON fuel in. Since I got the Trophy in October it's always ran on Shell Optimax so thought I'd stick a tank full of Tesco's special in. Bloody hell, if you can find a Tesco's that sell it then stick a tank full in, I burnt £25...

I'm looking to upgrade the bulbs in my Trophy.
I've been on to the www.powerbulbs.co.uk website and the vehicle search only goes up to 2004 clios and recommends the following;
Indicator
PY21W
Low Beam
H7
High Beam
H1
I'm considering Philips Vison Plus for the H1 & H7 and...

I think I am going to change the engine oil to be safe (currently at almost 7k miles).
Rather than putting in Elf, I was considering going to Castrol Edge 5w-30 (they don't make a 5w-40).
Do you guys think there would be an issue with this (either with it being Castrol Edge or being...
Looking to change my oil over the weekend, so I am just making sure that I have got everything I need - I have tried to search R'sport and C'sport forums but cannot find a guide...
Just after a bit of advice really from people who have changed oils on 172's or 182's.

What oil have Renault loaded the Trophy up with from new?
Through my other posts here, I was advised not to go to a fully syn after 1000 miles as the oil would be too thin etc, and that I should keep the running in oil in there, but would Renault really tell us to leave a running in oil in...
I have been looking around the 'net for a few hours trying to get a feel for the best types of oil to put in my Trophy when it arrives.
