servicing

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...

What do you all think of the new Focus RS? I'm wondering whether, after three and a half years of Trophy ownership, it might be time to P/X it against a new RS. The Megane R26R has been considered but is too much of a compromise, we're a one car house and I drive mostly motorway miles.Thoughts...

:( Hello again. Hope you`re all well. I`m not...422 is cornering very badly now and not being a mechanic i thought i`d see what your thoughts on this problem are. (visit to garage planned for the end of the week) The problem is,the car cuts into corners much sharper than it used to do and...

Damper maintenance/refurb? Is there much that can be done or anybody can do to keep them in best condition possible. anybody had this done?

This is a fantastic low mileage example that has covered 21,000 miles. I purchased the car in November 2007 for £12,000 from a Zymol detailers - see pics on his website http://www.offyourmarks.com/gallery. As you can see the car was in better than new condition and had covered just 2200 miles...

My 182 needs its five year service!! What is the average price for this? Do you guys know of any garages in the North East or Scotland that can do this? Cheers guys

Hi everyone - I've been knocking around the idea of getting a Trophy for a while now, and I'm going to be buying one very soon now. Quick question: is it best to get a bog-stock example (what I've always done in the past) or does the Trophy respond well to a cat-back pipe and a panel filter...

Just bought 415, which had its aux belt changed in August of last year with 18,081 on the clock. Wondering when the cam belt will need doing now. Is the latter due for replacement at three years after manufacture or when the vehicle reaches 36,000 miles (currently done 19,800)? What price have...

Well ive been daydreaming of owning a trophy since 2005 when they came out and ive finally got round to it! :D :D Hopefully its as good as i recon: 1 actual owner 24,000 miles Full service history very straight and clean good exaltos all round couple of honest stonechips but to be expected...

New to the forum and the Trophy – just bought 415. I am having trouble sourcing two brand new Pilot Exalto PE2s locally to me here in west Kent. Any idea where I can find them for around £110 each?

Hi I am the owner of No55 and live in Herefordshire. Who would you recommend to service my car in this area? many thanks Ben

24,000 miles clocked over today but service light hasnt appeared??

Hi guys, this should probably go in the Trophy Faults section but I thought that since it could cost a lot to fix people should know. My beloved Trophy has been in the garage for a week because a number of seals around the engine and gear box were perishing. It's taken so long cause the garage...

Does anyone know of any Renaultsport servicing manual. The Haynes Clio manual specifically says it does not include any details of Renaultsport cars.

So 219 is now 3 years old and at 26k miles, the annual service is due in December but its my intention to bring it forward before a small road trip to Wales. Now how many people have taken the precaution of having the Aux Belts changed when there car got to 3 years. I’m in two minds to...

Sad sad day! I am relutantly selling this amazing hot hatch due arrival of company car. This really is the best car I have ever owned and I'll be very sad to see it go. Pictures on Piston Heads, http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/707075.htm. I'll upload them on here later. Great...

Well it's now just over a year since the last service [-X and was pondering whether to get the belts done as it will be 3 in october, thing is it's only done 9k. :oops: What's everyone else doing and what's your opinion?

My two Clio Trophys now start at £7495. 05/05 one owner FSH 53000m £7495 includes FREE 12m Motorplan Platinum Warranty (usually 3m) 05/55 two owner FSH 41500m £7995 Renault warranty to October 2008. 12m Motorplan warranty just add £150 Both these cars drive no differently to the...

as some of the trophys are now due there first mot i thought it would be good to see what miles everyones done in them. mines done just over 27,000 which isnt too bad for a nearly 3 year old car. bout average i think, anyone got a really high mileage one and any under 10,000 miles?

I have a major problem :( Not really sure what to do. Driving home form work on Saturday, the emissions warngin light came on and the car sounded oncredibly unhealthy. (i thought it sounded like a steam train...) Got towed home by the rac, and they have said it has blown a spark plug. The guy...

Just had the 24,000 mile service carried out at Mark Fish, but with only 22k on the clock and he's found that the n/s lower ball joint is shot! Mark thinks it should be covered by the warranty but the by the reaction i received when booking the car in at Renault i'm not so sure they share his...

I'm sure that in the past there has been discussion on company cars, however, I performed a quick search and couldn't find anything. There's a possibility that my job could move and I would not want to drive the Trophy daily, so would push for a company car (Keep the Trophy as a weekend toy...

While my S2000 is in for servicing I'm getting the managers FD2 Civic Type R to play in/get me around. Looking forward to it as I really do like the cars. Anyone had an experience with them?

Hi there anyone know of a decent garage around the Hertfordshire area? that in mind anyone on hear from the same area?

Has anyone used Renault Revilo in Stockport for any work, esp servicing? Noticed that Yozzasport in Staffs and RS Tuning in Leeds seem to be recommended, however Revilo is much more local..

Time for the 24000 mile service. Saw a thread recently singing the praises of a Renault Dealer in surrey - was it Croydon? I can't find it now, can someone tell me which one it was, please? Or shallI take the car to Rentech? Guarantee still runs until December 2008 and I have to get the seat...

Afternoon all.... Newbie here!! Currently got a FF182, but now the Trophy seems to be luring me in... I was hoping you could help me out with a few things.. 1 - The warranty - I've heard that you can extend it with Renault, is this true, is it worth it? 2 - I've yet to get a test...

I've posted before that i'm going to get a live map done on the car when the 24k service is due, well it's only a matter of a couple of weeks off now and so was wondering who, if anyone wanted either tag along or join in - Paul of RST has mentioned he may do a discount for multiple cars. They...

i hope I have made the right decision :cry: .....I have now ordered a new 197 Cup (in white with satin black wheels).Delivery in six weeks.....astonishingly I have acheived £8990 :shock: for the Trophy in px with a small discount on the 197 cup.....but before I let it go, I would likel to...
