Hello, trophy 388 having gear box trouble.Not good !!!
Second gear will not engage at all. Has anyone had this problem before ?? Any ideas on what the problem might be??
Any input would be a big help thanks.
My trophy's recently started making a creaking noise which looks to be coming from the drivers side suspension. You can hear it when driving over any slight bumps in the road and especially over speed bump. Also today noticed what must be a slow puncture as the pressure on this tyre was down to...
the standard back box (one of them) is leaking, bearing in mind only had it for 2 weeks, i looked at the MOT and its advised 'slight deterioration mid/back sections' so i went back to the place i bought it, they said 'take it to the garage', so i did. 'about 4-5 hrs we will need the car for', as...
I know Renault seem to get bad reviews amongst people regarding the reliability but during my ownership I have found the Trophy really reliable. I've owned it 3 years and 4 months and had the following issues...
Failed Coolant Termperature Sensor
Failed Damper Seal
Failed CV Boot Clip
Thats...
Trophy was handling like a bag of crap, noticed a bouncy damper so had it rebuilt at BG a few weeks ago.
Also the exalto's on the front had come to their usable end so replaced them with the Pilot Sport 3's.
Anyway, Trophy's feeling a bit weird in some corners, i cant really describe it, its...
For Sale.
Scorpion RS192 Exhaust System (Cat Back). The system has been fitted to my Trophy from new for 2 years (approx. 10,000 miles). The centre section is 6 months old as it was replaced under warranty. Very good fitment, however, the centre section/back box join is a tight fit as this is...
Hi folks,
I know there have been several threads on this topic and I have also looked on cliosport. I had been thinking I would get new ball joints without the wishbone and fit them to my trophy and at the same time fit uprated poly bushes to the wishbone. After reading on cliosport the...

My trophy has gone in for its major service. It went to a garage rather than Renault them selves due to it costing nearly 500 pounds more at Renault. My trophy was having everything changed that was on the Renault major service check list and genuine Renault parts however i had a small leak of...
I got my car's body work done couple of months ago inc the bonnet so it has very little defects! just the 'odd' stone chip and when I say odd I mean very little!
Manage to get a brand new bonnet through warranty, reason being when you lift the bonnet up where the seams are there is a small...
Hi,
Well it that time where I have to get the belts (timimg etc)done... what belts get done and how much does it normally cost.. Renault are quoting £658. Does that sound resonable or should i look around.

Okay, for one reason or another I long longer have easy access to a PC so I suppose its time I bit the bullet and got laptop'd up. Don't really know a great deal so what should I be looking for in a good one etc etc. As for budget, I would rather not be spending huge amounts but will for a good...
What is a trophy worth in bits? The car in question is completely standard with engine failure
Dampers are fine, one wheel has a kerb mark that I can see and the mileage is 65-70k miles.
I'm informed the gearbox is fine and the recaro's are in mint condition, any help is appreciated
Thought I'd post here as well as CS because it seems a lot of Trophy owners have this system.
NB: the first graph is power, the second is torque.
A couple of months ago after being fed up of the standard tail pipes, no noise, and a general sense of being slightly resitricted at higher revs...
Guys how much are trophys going for? I've got 443 and thinking of selling it but not to sure what I'd get for it. It's got 51000 miles on the clock and in pretty good condition. Any help will be appreciated.

Hello!
My first post on here and was just hoping for a bit of information to help me along the way.
Thinking of selling my 172 cup and wanting to upgrade to a 182 trophy, i've looked at alternatives and feel the 182 trophy would be a great choice for me - has anyone else had a similar...

I noticed my exhaust was blowing so went under the car to check it out and felt alot of air blowing from where the mid section of the exhaust joins the Cat, I thought it was blowing from the clamp at first and after renewing it and fitting it several times I eventually found out it wasn't the...
i some times get a quite ticking sound when my trophy is idling. usually when its been running for a while. it is due its major service but my other trophy does it aswell ? so dont no weather or not this is normal ?? any one elses does it ??
I have a powerflow catback system which was fitted mid 2009 by previous owner I believe. It is very loud IMO which I like but I've recently become aware of a rattling audible at idle and when coasting. I had a look and all I can say is that when you "pat" the left backbox there is said rattle...
Does anyone have it? If so can you remember if there is an inline fuse? Mine has suddenly decided to stop working for some reason. When I go to the CD changer on the HU, the radio beeps and says ' NO CD' and then goes back to radio. My iPhone knows there is a cable as it comes up with the normal...

Hi guys I'm back in a Renault now not a trophy but a LY 182. Can you still buy orbisound exhausts and if so where from?
The other question is are they worth it over a miltek?
Thanks
Hello,
My Trophy is all booked in for a Service & Cambelt in the next week and my pockets are literally empty. . .
Mainly due to the fact that this also comes in the month when the MOT, Insurance and Tax are all due. Ouch!
I was just wondering if there was anything else i should be aksing the...
Right I will get straight to the point as I have a list; I have owned my Trophy for now 2 months and when purchased I had timing belts done and an oil and filter change done. This weekend however I was doing a gearbox change and checked the oil now the dipstick read ½ litre low and when I...
