noise

Well, it hasn't been long in my hands and already I've decided that it's time to be a bit braver! I got married a couple a months ago as many of you know, and bought the R26 to replace my beloved Trophy #185. Having realised that I've probably only got a couple of years left to be utterly...

My car needs a new set of front pads. I've decided on buying Ferodo DS2500's but everywhere I look the prices seem so largely different. The best price I have found so far is £99.98 for the pair. Does anyone know of any company that sells them cheaper or is this the best I'm really likely...

Well here it is, what lots have been waiting for, in white as well. Still don't like it. http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/community ... cleID=1789

Hi There Had my trophy for around a month now and yesterday ive had my first "real" problem As i left my workplace and was driving down the road the radio turned off, all the dials went a bit mad and the trip computer completley reset itself .... As i drove it down the road i was...

What can I say but what a top guy, had a long discussion about which direction we could go tuning wise, his current motorsport ventures and which teams arent following the rules Had some toys fitted today and am happy as a pig in sh*t with the results, the ITG Maxogen complements the exhaust...

Hi There Looking to buy some new speakers for my trophy , wanted to know peoples reccomendation .... Looking to spend about £150 Thanks Sam

Hi There As the new owner of "steves" old trophy i wanted to ask a few questions .. 1. Is it worth removing the acoustic valve ? 2. Does a Decat have a dramatic increase in noise and will the decat pipe that ktec sell work with the standard back box 3. Does everyone stay with the...

I thought i'd ask on here as ClioSport was going to give me all sorts of silly answers. Right the 182 is due her annual service end of Sept, done no where near the mileage, but want things kept up to date & make sure everything is as it should be. The car will go to Mike @ RenTech after...

Beauty and the Beast (but which is which?) Went round to a friends house and took the Trophy for a photo session

Hi guys, i have noticed that my 182 that i have had like two weeks is running a little rough when its ticking over idle, sounds more like a diesil sometimes!! is this the way they sound or is something wrong?? service is due very soon, and its first mot! so hopefully this will help it! Also...

what does this actually do, and how do you do it?

Hi everyone! Just got myself a 2004 182 clio, black, had a golf 1.6 previously and my fiancee purchased a civic type r! So i needed a car that would keep up but not be silly evo expensive! I want to get an induction kit fitted and get the engine tuned, is this a good idea?? ( she still...

To be fitted tomorrow.

Has anyone driven one? I had a drive in one yesterday and i have to say i was mightily impressed. Steering, handling, and brakes are all very very good. Its not Trophy 'chuckable' on the country roads but i was surprised at how nimble it felt and how much grip there was - especially as its a...

I have been back and too to Renault with a rumble noise from the engine of my Trophy since I bought it. Each time they say they can't hear it, or that its a normal characteristic. So I took hime to Carlton Garage, Exmouth (Ren Specialist) for his 24k service and they traced the fault to the...

Finally got some pics, they're not great but at least they'll give you an idea. Enjoy . . .

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...

seen all the pics of the floods in the middlands and was wondering if anyones trophy got damaged... it bearly rained in newcastle...bit windy but thats all..

A while ago, an empty stretch of road presented itself to me, so I thought I'd see how fast the Trophy would go. Now, it wasn't the longest stretch of road ever so I couldn't keep my foot planted forever, but it was long enough. It's not very quick over 100mph, but as it clicked past 125mph it...

Popped along to have my Paradas fitted this luncheon time. All was going well & the lads were being extra careful with my wheels so not to mark them. A guy turned up to pick up his Lambo wheels having just been fitted with fresh rubber, anyways he managed to knock one of my wheels face side...

I'm considering purchasing a Trophy in September but I've noticed a few of the regulars on here commenting about the motorway ride. Is it really as bad as people make it out to be? I'll be frequently travelling to Birmingham, Bristol and London so I'll be hitting the motorway quite a lot...
