HELP!

I'm after some help on a number of issues with my Clio 172 Cup from my fellow renault owners!

1) Which rear brake discs and pads should I buy as they need replacing very soon?

2) How do I remove and replace my entire glove box? Can't find any obvious screws!

3) How much should I expect to pay for a cambelt change?

Thanks in advance people!

1 standard are fine and quite good value for money as they come with bearings
( or can buy upgraded , but may have buy bearing separate)
2 , glove box is part of lower dash so does not come out on its own , what are you trying to do ?
3 prices will vary depending on area , using dealer /independant /private and what belt kit you use. personally i would recommend buying the genuine renault cambelt kit.

 

hi i would go for mintex groved and dimpled rear disks as they come with bearings and abs rings already fitted.

2 the glove box can be taken out pretty easy its a number of screws dotted around and 3 under the center silver moulding on the dash it just prizes off

and renault charge anywhere from 200 to 450 for a cambelt . i would only recomend a renault cambelt kit fitted by renault as its coverd with a 30k miles or 3 year guarentee whatever comes first if its not fitted by renault there is no guarentee and renault tools are needed so you could try find a indi garage that has them. p.s blueprint cambelt kts are made by the same factory as o.e.m renault cambelts for a cheaper option.

 

hi , only the glove lid comes off , or the top half of the dash. the hole is part of the lower dashboard.
and do renault really give a 30k or 3 year guarentee when fitting belts ? great if they did but i thought they were 12 months parts and labour ? (now hope im wrong)

 

nope its deffo 30k or 3 years on timing belts its deffo as i went into this with them when i had mine done the other day. the only exception to the rule is the megane 250 apparently as its a chain and not a belt but on the clio's and sports its deffo 3 year or 30k

 

thats good to know, and quite impressive from a dealer,
thanks

 

Thanks guys!
