Alternator regulators on these are very specific! The Bosch regulator is NLA and they provide a generic one for new and reconditioned ones, it does not work with the ECU regardless of what people tell you., wildly varying voltages, alternator warnings, steering lock warnings etc, etc.. Also...

You probably won’t find ELF oil in the UK as they pulled out years ago. Primary reason probably a set to with the government over the scam they tried to pull on the Frigg gas field!!

Total pain! Removing and replacing not too bad but any replacement column has to be set up using Renault diagnostics. Won’t start until this is done! Don’t know where your peanut butter came from!

Need a set for mine, No.58, only done 1600 miles but stripes are flaking at the edges, keep me in the loop.

Alternator now NLA from Renault, recon units are only 109 and 039/069 NLA from Bosch as they have been bought out and rationalised.

That ECU number is the generic, you need the other half to get the correct mapping for your engine!

Five years on and now done a heady 1650 miles!!

Sitting at 1500 miles now, went to Origine RS at Goodwood last year and ventured onto track! Pictured in Classic and Sportscar, Jan 2015 issue with Martin Buckley and daughter.
