pads

The additional power from a nitrous system can be very addictive and because its such a simple job to increase the power (quickly changing a couple of jets), most users decide to take quick steps up the power ladder. It must however be remembered, that each step places increased demands on the...

Hi, I was driving to work this morning and the service light on my Trophy has just come on. It isn’t actually due for a service for another 2000 miles (35,000) so I’m a bit unsure why it has come on!? Is this something I need to get looked at? Or is the service light something that just...

ok then just to add a bit of humuor to the forum... What is the most rediculess / stupid / unbelivable thing a dealer has ever done / said to yourself... i'll start with this one... when we bought my wifes R27 (ex demo) i asked the dealer to touch up a small scuff on the front wheel, in their...

Hi all, The idea of this post is to keep you all up to date with what has been going on at www.opieoils.co.uk Firstly, we have changed our filter supplier. As some of you will know we previously stocked Purolator Filters and we have now switched over to UFI filters; oil filters, fuel, cabin...

hi folks, looking at changing the front pads and disks. looking at k-tec website, i know most favour the pagig rs4-2 pads, but talking to a friend who has an e30 m3 and uses the carbon lorraine pads which are also on the k-tec website. anybody have them or heard eny reports about them. it does...

Hi! My Trophy needs new rear discs, now i know they incorporate the bearings so i would need to change them too realistically. Now i know i should really get original renault bearings(probably skf or something) as i want them to last a good amount of time. And i want to get half decent quality...

Hi Guys Had my 36k service done yesterday by Mark Fish, what a top bloke. Would highly recommend him to anyone. Whilst i was there i also had the Brembo Max Grooved disks and DS2500 pads fitted, still bedding them in at the minute but already got a nice feel to them. I was thinking about...

So, who's heading off to the moutains again this coming season? I plan to return to Tignes for my 2nd boarding experience. Sadly this year I shall be going during Feb half-term as my girlfriend is accompanying us and she is now teaching.. Expecting the slopes to be totally rammed but hey, if...

I've reduced my car fleet to just the trophy now, and an impending company car. So i've decided to allow myself to start modifying again! What have you all done to your trophies, and were the mods worth it? So far i've just fitted decent bulbs and a great stereo system. Just ordered a 172...

Dudes, I am fuming. My Trophy went in for its third (i.e. north of £500) service a month ago at AKS Renault in Yeovil. Today it went for its first MOT at my trusted independent garage, local to work, who service my van fleet. It failed, as the rear pads are worn down to almost nothing, and...

Time has come to insure, tax and test my trophy. The car has passed its MOT but I've been advised that the front disks and pads could do with replacing. The car has only done 10k miles but the disks have corroded, due possibly to sticking pads. Naturally, the dealers said the warranty would...

Well some of you may remember me? Im little Newms from Cliosport. I use to own a 172 Cup but decided to sell. I bought a few cars after that with the best one being a citroen saxo vts (loved it! Gutted when that went!) I saved a few pennys and bought a house with my Mrs and here i am today! All...

I'm looking at spending no more than a grand on some performance upgrades on the Trophy. looking at the Morego (without cams) but not sure. Does a custom remap, filter and exhaust offer more value for money and if so who and where do you recommend? cheers.
