warranty

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...

Mine lit up about a month ago and i finally got it sorted yesterday. This light (orange, engine shaped located bottom right of the dash display) can mean any number of things but on the Clio is generally a sign that the O2 sensor has gone phut. (do a search on any forum and you will find dozens...

In the top 1% of the cleanest used cars I have ever bought. 2004/04 Clio 182 in Titanium Silver. Std car so no Cup Packs, but you can easily fit lowering springs and get the wheels painted or buy some Turinis. But to be honest, it's a pleasure to drive over a Cup. Three Renault dealer stamps...

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...

With the warranty, does the work actually have to be done before the warranty runs out or does the garage just need to be aware of it before it runs out? My Trophy has just failed its MOT on every single emissions test :( I can't take it in to Renault until Monday which is the last day of...

Hi all just wonder how many of you had had the ecu mounting bracket snap? I had mine replaced under warranty about 3 months ago and its gone already. Renault informed me it had already been done once before. its not a massive problem as not making any rattle like i've heard from some people but...

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...

Due here next few days. 2006/06 Clio 197 in Albi Blue Met 22500 miles and two owners. FSH. Will confirm spec on arrival but I know it has Xenons and Electric Folding Mirrors, I expect it has Climate and associated features but will confirm. Renault warranty to 30/06/2009. Described by VW dealer...

I've been getting a creaking when reversing off my drive lately, which seems to have stumped quite a few people that have looked at my car and cast opinions. After a 2 day (without car) row with my renault dealer about whether my car has standard suspension of not. They have now agreed to solve...

Does anyone know whether 182 Cup dampers will fit a Trophy? Reason I ask is that my nearside front damper has a loose remote reservoir and has leaked oil and is therefore shot. My car has done only 31000 miles. I've only a few days left of my warranty (end of Aug, great timing!!) and will try...

I have decided to do my 24K service at Mark Fish cause he's near me and very good etc. I will be getting the front dampers unpinned at the same time,along with all the brakes as they are due for the heave ho. I am going for the Brembo Max HC discs with pagid blues and braided lines. Question...

So many different reasons i'm guessing! I bought mine as a daily driver to replace a boring VAG TDi barge. I have always loved french hatches, the handling balance and the way they handle bumpy roads is unrivalled by jap crap and german barges. Trophy specific, i always have to have good...

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

Hey all, just bought number 309 from a dealer at gatwick airport yesterday morning - i've always been against french cars, never understood what the fuss is about etc etc - OMG how wrong can i be!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My brother suggested i look at a trophy, drove it bought it...

2007/57 Megane R26 230 F1 team in Silver with Xenons. One owner and 7490 miles. Immaculate condition. No decals apart from the side ones by the F1 logo. From previous enquiries the Xenons are the important bit, I'm sure if anyone whats some of the decals they can be purchased from Renault...

Now, i have read the topics about the rattling Recaro's but as 007 is as early number and thus out of warranty, i have to find a solution myself. I found whe valeting 007 that the drivers' seat, when pushed right back (as i am 6"2) rattles, when the passenger seat is solid, but is normally...

ive been a bit sad since i waved goodbye to my v6 a couple of years ago and since the purchase of the trophy i have always kept my eye out at the prices etc. The trophy has been an outstanding car and one of the best i have owned. I was browsing pistonheads last tuesday and spotted a 54 plate...

Somewhere between getting to work and going home someone has keyed the n/s rear quarter of my lovely trophy :( It's not too deep so i'm hoping that once i get my mate over with his paint depth gauge, udm, makita etc, he'll get it out and make it look like new!It's a large car park just for our...

Been looking at a post on Cliosport about steering wheel wear as the roughness on mine starting to wind me up. Its on the RHS on the wheel by the grip. Cliosport refer to it as 'melting'. I have never seen anything like it. On previous old cars that I had +10 years when the wheel got worn it...

What's an 05 Trophy with 70000 miles going to be worth in 12m time? Warranties with a £2500 claim limit that cover the dampers are available for about £250 per annum for cars with FSH and undergo scheduled services. Also seems that private sales appear to be similar prices achieved by...

Hello all. I am a private buyer and missed out on a new Trophy at the time for one reason or another. I have cash waiting and whilst it may be less than some owners are expecting, can promise an easy, no hassle sale, with immediate payment. I am based in Essex and have £6500 in CASH ready...

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...

Mine runs out in december just got a price to continue with renault and they want £500 FOR 1 YEAR, or £800 for two years thats quite expensive i thought.

Hi Guys My Trophy appears to have just started making a "clicking" noise when you pull away. Its still under warranty but just wanted to know if this was a common thing so i could perhaps relay some feedback to renault. Thanks

Here's a link to a very clean Alfa Romeo 145 Cloverleaf that has come into my stock. I have to say this car is a brilliant drive and staggering VFM. I have many digital pictures of the car, including some close ups of the two rear quarter tops and door handles that need respraying (circa...
