Hi soon ill do the "big service" timing belt aux tens water pump and so on
Can any1 here send the FULL list for the things need to be changed without missing a thing .
plus should i change the pulley dephaser too?
Cheers!
 
Yes I would have it done at the same time while everything is off. You would kick yourself if you pay for the rest of it to be done only to have the pulley start playing up further down the line! They are said to be better than the older 172/182s but for what extra it costs it might as well be done when the belts are.

I'm having this fit at the end of the month which includes everything. All genuine Renault.
 
Add coolant (and thermostat if needed) to the above list.

Plus oil & filter. Add any additional bits like spark plugs, pollen filter etc
 
Change the thermostat?[emoji15]
How to decide if to change or not? Except working/not way[emoji16]
My heat is usualy quarter-1/3 and sometimes at half .
guess its working kinda coldy [emoji780]

Alright thanks! I was planing to upload later anyway a video with my cold start behavior and another thing + the heat so youll see what im talking about
 
The way I understand it is the 'kit' includes the cam belt, tensioner and idler plus a few misc parts like new bolts etc, same with the aux belt kit. I'm actually having ALS fit mine towards the back end of next week, I spoke to the guy over the phone and he assured me it was the job lot. Also a very decent price so well worth the drive.

How much abouts?
 
£460 inc fitting and the dreaded VAT. The cheapest quote elsewhere was £580 from another Renault specialist, which worked out about the same sort of distance from me so decided to go with ALS.
 
FYI just had the belts done at ALS-Performance up at Carlisle yesterday, very impressed with the place. Nice tidy workshop and they are actually an official RenaultSport parts dealer with involvement in the Michelin Clio Cup Rally.

The owner is called Barrie and before setting up the business he used to travel the world as part of the rally mechanic team. So safe to say, he knows his way around Renault Sports! - They had a rather tasty 200 Cup Racer there which had 30k worth of goodies on it, I think he said they race it competitively too! Had a couple of Clio 172s with like 10k on the Clock and a nice 182 Trophy knocking about.
 
Whats that? This is require for that service?
