    I'd like to get some sort of protection but it all seems a bit late now.. I do use Collinite which is good stuff. Do you get the same problem then?? I think your right about the shape.

    Olympic Opening Ceremony...

    good point! Although what people forget when they buy one is that it was designed here before BMW brought Rover I think. I'm pretty sure all the tooling was moved from here...

    My FF Cup Packed Albi 200

    I hadn't got the diagnostic equipment out for a good few months so when a neighbour had a problem with their Clio I offered to blow the dust off and fire it up - reading out 3 faults (Lambda Sensor, Vehicle Speed Sensor & one other I can't remember) and turning off the MIL and Electrical warning...

    Warranty isssues..Recaro seat faults - help!!

    Renault do not want to replace seats/covers for wear and tear if they can help it... and it's annoying. I was told this by more than one person at Renault (That's Ren UK, Renault Warranty and the dealer) - that they are now getting tighter on what they replace and every seat is inspected...

    Tracking

    I've heard that the 200 is prone to being knocked out alignment quite often. Dunno if its to do with the susp setup and electric rack...heard that the cup susp cars suffer the most due to the impact from our roads coupled with the stiff set up.

    Glad I have warranty! Gearbox

    I'm really interested to know what exactly is the syncro problem? Can you enlighten us all? Is it just premeature wear or poor build quality? Design fault? And... When replacing them are Renault using a new designed part or just the same syncros again.?

    Tyre Pressure Monitor..

    Looking through my Renault dialogys and manuals it doesn't state which clio's have this - do all/any 197/200's have this?? I know that the image of the car and four tyres on the dash display would show the fault, and that the system works using electronic pressure valves that send a signal...
