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

Going to have the alignment/tracking, camber settings ajusted. So many threads on here with varying opinion. I use the trophy as my daily drive and trackday toy when Im in the mood which usually involves driving to the ring lol! I need to know the factory settings if possible and please the...

Hi. does anyone know of a specialist garage for Renault Sport cars in the north east. im after my aux belt changed and i think im going to get my cam belt done but the stealers want fortunes for the job. does anyone know a good garage to get this work done in the north east. all the garages...

Hello. This morning i turned on my 182 and drove away. Then i noticed a light on the dash in the middle under the petrol light. It was a rectangle with wiggly likes in it from left to right and same orange as the petrol light. The engine had very limited power (limited to under 3000 revs). I...

... now I got your attention... That nearly made me fall off my chair - I spoke to a new guy (supplier) who I'd left specific details of the tyres I wanted. Make, model, size, rubber compound... you name it. Two days later he calls me, the Conversation just went like this. " I can get those...

I get a deep creak/groan sort of noise when pulling away. And no it's not the ABS system, it does it whenever pulling away from a standstill. Only started this week really, and i think it's related to my worn wishbone balljoints. Normally i'd think engine mounts but it dunno. Anyone else had...

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...

Hello All, Im new to your site, hope to be picking up a Trophy this weekend but quick question: Does a full Renault Service history make much difference in terms of resale value? The car Im due to get is due a service and the garage has offered to include the service in the purchase package...

Sorry to keep bombarding with all the questions of late... :lol: I'm after some more advice and opinions again please. Following a recent trip to the Lake District my partner and I have noticed that the Trophy isn't quite as 'spritely' as usual so I carried out the usual checks (i.e. the...

Rang about for 2 weeks trying to find the best price for a service, got quoted anywhere between £160 and £224. £160 was from local garages minus the oil and air filter. £224 was from all Reno dealers, even whan i told them i had the oil and had just done the air filter they still...

What are the commons things that go on a Trophy? I've heard something about the engine mounts, passenger recaro rail and the ecu bracket. The reason I ask is because my warranty runs out in a month or so and I'd like to try and get some of these things done before then. Thanks in advance

Feet are itching again and it's the same old R26 that's causing it. I've been offered a 6,000 mile R26 with xenons for an additional 5.5k with part/x on my 24k mint, new front PE2's, serviced, mot'd and taxed Trophy. Shall I ???? Is it a [-X or a :wink: Basically 8k for mine 13.5k for...

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum :D apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong section... I'm on the lookout for a Trophy, and I am presently at the "scouring the classifieds" stage :lol: any advice on the best places to look ? I spotted this one on pistonheads, but after a quick search, I...

Guys, My car is permaguarded, thanks to Duffer987 and I continued this trend last year with the annual top up. I'm now unsure as to whether or not to continue.. I went to the local Lotus specialist today , seeking a quote to tidy up the bodywork and remedy the result of my front bumper...

Done a search and I think I may be the first one to report on this! My Trophy has developed a loud creaking from the rear of the car over the past couple of months, I thought it could have been the interior trim in the boot, or the boot lock and rubber stops, but i've tried replicating the...

heard the 3 year / 36k service was a big one...anyone had this done lately..? wondering what its likely to cost at the dealers...? :(

My other half is taking my Trophy on a 1:1 tuition track day to Goodwood in August and need to insure the car - just in case the worst happens! God forbid! We just have fully comp insurance at the mo, and wondered whether I can just 'up' the insurance with our existing insurance provider -...

Im looking to lower the Trophy 10mm all around with a set of Eibach pro lowering springs, however, I cant find any on the internet, I saw a set on K-Tec which lowered the 182cup 20mm on the front and 15mm on the back, am I right in saying this would lower the trophy 10mm on the front and 5mm at...

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 have owned a few clio's in the past and have always taken it to the same Renault Specialist near where I live. He has been a Renault specialist for nearly 15 years and he is very clued up on anything French to be honest. Anyway, I've had an oil change from him on the Trophy a few thousand...

18,700 miles, I bought it with 5000 miles on the clock from a meticulous owner, Permagard treatment carried out twice now and looks great. Only ever run on Optimax and V-Power. Always left to warm up before exploiting. Private number plate 'S3 YOO' included in the purchase and valued at...
