Thanks! I need to renew my membership just realised its run out!

I did read that thread and do a search but couldn't find what I was after. I am interested in the bolt that is in the centre of the rear discs retaining them on the rear stub axles!

Planning to change rear discs and pads tomorrow. Can anyone confirm the socket size I need to get the discs off and the torque they should be tightened to when refitting? Just don't want to get it up on stands and in bits to find I don't have the right tools! Cheers!

Hi, As others have said it makes sense to change it as it will cost a lot in labour if you have to do it in the near future. Cheers, Harry!

Thanks for the PM CL10 I have received a call today from customer services to say that Thiery Sybord has received my email and he is aware of my case. I have also been told that he is of the opinion that Renault will not increase the amount they will contribute to the cost of the repairs...

This is my first renault so no "brand loyalty" to speak of. As i keep telling Renault the issue is with the car not my loyalty, if the car is not engineered correctly then the number of Renaults I have owned is not relevant. If they are keen to promote loyalty they would have offered me a...

Any chance you would PM me your cars reg no mileage and age when the gearbox was changed? Any information I can use would be much appreciated.

Could you give some details on your car please, age, mileage. I only ask as they will not offer me more than 50%!

I had a call from a senior customer service manager called Sam Lavington on Friday, she proceeded to tell me that it was either my fault or the previous owners fault in how the vehicle has been driven. Even when I stated that the gearbox is a non service item she told me that it is now out...

They sell the car as a hot hatch, organise RS trackdays, fit a short ratio gearbox to a high revving engine. The car should be designed to be driven as intended, it should be fit for purpose!

I have indeed thought of twitter and facebook, trading standards, watchdog and all the UK motoring press. I would however like to give them a chance to do the right and proper thing first which is fix their problem. If I dont get the response I want then that is what they will get next!

Still in contact with Renault over my gearbox problem cannot believe that a 4 year old car needs a new gearbox with only 27k on the clock and that the cost through Renault is £2300!

Well I have created a thread on the Renault sport site and it sent an email to the RUK MD both of which have got some interest from customer services. Unfortunately they are still arguing about how they are offering me goodwill and normally they wouldnt offer anything. Hopefully they will...
