    Over fuelling?

    I have a decat and a Janspeed cat back exhaust and lately the Trophy backfires (pops and bangs) on a cold start. Does anyone else get this or is mine the first?

    This thread is a bit harsh, http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/community ... C_ID=11534 'Libel' or in this case, 'defamation' spring to mind.

    Knocking noise (but not the usual?)

    I've never suffered from the infamous 182 top mount knock, but a couple of days ago my Trophy started making a knocking noise when maneuvering at slow speeds. I assumed this was the knock, and thought nothing of it, but it has been getting progressively worse since then. The knock was then...

    Hello all, I'm David and I'm thinking of getting a Clio Trophy. :) I currently drive an Audi TT Quattro Sport (that I've only owned for six weeks!) and before that I had a Ford Focus RS. I keep reading about how great the Trophy is and it's gradually drawing me in. I suspect I could have a...

    Trophy running sluggish

    My Trophy has developed a subtle engine fault over the last couple of months. There is a distinct missfire at 2500 RPM (in neutral) and has become a little sluggish under acceleration, especially from lower revs. It sounds rough too. I have also noticed a rumble, in tick-over, from the cambelt...

    modifications and warranty???

    obviously the trophy's all still have around 8 months warranty left on them, however what will modifications do to this warranty??

    FRENCH SERVICE?

    Anyone considered/had a service done in France? Would it be cheaper? I`m pretty sure warranty wouldn`t be affected if a Renault dealer was used. Only asking as a service is due and I`m off to France at Easter. Cheers, Ian.
