Spent the weekend polishing the Trophy, have been meaning to combat the swirls ever since it came out of Renault for some warranty work (forgot to ask them not to clean the car with a gritty sponge). Not the best weekend, as I had to keep dodging all the rain showers . Had to finish up in the...

My passenger seat has been doing a bit of rattling which can be quite irritating. I've had a look underneath to try and diagnose the problem and it seems that on one side where the rails join it is a bit lose i.e. there is a small bit of play between the rail attached to the seat and the rail...

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has suggestions on selling my Trophy.. I spoke to allvehicles.co.uk and they offered me £8k. Also went into Renault DSG Morecambe and after being asked if it was a 172 or 182 three times and several references to it being called a cup(!) they offered me...

Coming home from work tonight i was doing about 20 in 3rd, let off the throttle (expecting to slow down due to engine breaking) but just kept going! so I knocked it out of gear and the engine was revving at a constant 2000revs. Little dap on the throttle and the engine started 'coughing' until...

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...

driving my car this evening it felt a bit odd - like the front right suspension was muchsofter than the left. When I got out of the car and checked, sure enough it is much easier to push down one side of the car when you stand at the front and lean on the headlight. I can wobble the offside...

so the 1st of the trophys will soon be comming out of warranty...i was thinking of extending the warranty in May but wondering if it will be worth it...i'm thinking mainly about the shocks but i'm sure the dealers will wriggle out of any issues with them quoting the universal dealer "wear &...

The weekend started with a visit to Mark Fish to have the solid top mounts fitted that I had ordered last year but had only just got round to getting fitted. Mr Fish (for those who have never met him). The top mount. Sachs dampers removed. Holes drilled. Top mount...

Hey Guys, I know it's a long shot trying to diagnose a problem with my 182 over the net without seeing or hearing a car, but some of you guys are very clued up & thought you may be able to help me. I have a funny feeling I have a engine or possible gearbox mount gone or on the way out...

Hi Folks, While driving my girlfriends Trophy for the first time in ages the other night I was doing maybe 80MPH when I changed from 5th to 4th & put the throttle to the floor. Lots of smoke came out of the exhaust - after double checking it (repeated the gearchange) the same thing happened...

Hey folks, I think I'm aware of every Trophy for sale in the UK at the moment (whether it be pheads, eBay, autotrader, forums) but if anyone knows of any sitting around - outside of the internet browsing world - looking for a new home, do let me know.

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 think not my friends! But...there may be a couple of hecklers.!! I dare you! If not, I've passed the test. 8) [edit: to spellcheck/correct]

Ello all, Well I'll do a brief intro to me ..then get to the point! 1st rung on the Clio ladder was a used 51 reg 172 and I loved it! But because I read EVO magazine, and am swayed by their road tests... I traded the 172 for a brand new 172 cup. I had the 172 Cup for about 2 years...

currently in the process of fitting an maxogen ik, which requires the front left wheel to come off, however having a nightmare trying to get the locking nut off even with the correct attachment/key, just wandering if theres a certain way off doing it or is it the same as any other nut? thanks...
