I spent loads of time phoning lots of different people and there were only 1 or 2 that suggested they could do the job for less than £1000. Sean at Jade Developments who was reccommened earlier in this thread was great but the logistics of getting it to Leicester etc. we're just too much. I...

Of course, it was £600+vat which included 1 synchro, I needed both 3rd and 4th synchros so my total bill including band new seals, oil etc. was £755incl. It was a very good service and they just do gearboxes so guessing they could probably do them blindfolded! They also confirmed the part...

Collected the car today and it's perfect, like new! They kept the old synchros for me to show me the wear which was quite obvious to see. All freshly rebuilt, resealed and ready to drive it felt superb on the way home this eve and I am really pleased with the service I received and the bonus was...

It's no reflection on the car at all, if you check my Welcome post you will see this was bought as a stop gap whilst looking for my next car. It's incredible to the extent it has made me re-evaluate what I want out of that next car. Cheers Si

UPDATE 01/06/2016 Ok so after lots of research, advice, phone calls etc. the Clio finally went into a gearbox specialist in Bristol today. They literally just do gearboxes and have seen numerous 200's with synchro issues in different stages of destruction. Dropped it off this morning at 9am and...

That's great cheers bud, will get a couple today. There was some mention on one thread I read of some voodoo that is required following a changing of the battery - is this right or will the car just recognise the card again?? si

Morning all, Keycard battery is flat and car is at home today, can anyone tell me which CR battery I need - did a quick Google and came back with several suggestions? I thought it was CR2025.... Si

Thanks for the advice Yiannis, I am going to give him a ring as heading up to Nottigham in a fortnight so could drop it in on the way up perhaps?? sounds like his knows his stuff what with working on TOCA vehicles etc. the red Clio 200 in his gallery looks a weapon too!!

Just added it to my profile sorry bud - based in Somerset but willing to travel for reputable garage. Si

An interesting thread having read all 57 pages - bought my 2010 Clio 200 last Mon from BCA Auctions (Ford Main Dealer P/Ex) with one original owner, FSH from supplying dealer. Developed hesitancy to go into 4th from 3rd and when going back down from 5th to 4th there is an audible 'grind' so...

So aside from KTec which other Renault specialists can I look to for advice and a quote to sort this problem out?? Si

Well I tired that and it failed - basically it's a new car to me, I have not demonstrated any brand loyalty to Renault so they cannot justify making a financial contribution towards repair/replacement. Pretty poor if you ask me given the circumstances but there we go not much point labouring the...

Ok so does it not self destruct if not repaired then?? Given the age, low mileage and condition of the car I think really it has to be sorted to do the car justice Just worried about continued driving - will it cause further damage. Si

Ok so if you read my welcome thread you will know I picked up a 2010 Clio 200 FF with Cup Pack and only 19,000 miles on the clock last Mon. This was a temporary car whilst browsing for my next purchase, however I became smitten with the little Clio and decided I would probably keep it longer...

Having just sold an E46 M3 cab, I have been hankering after a B7 RS4 but not found one in spec I want (Sprint Blue, Avant, standard seats and no DRC) so when I saw the Clio I thought it would be a great little stop gap whilst I keep looking, however as mentioned already the 'stop gap' may get...

I have 4hrs set aside tomorrow for an initial detail - snow foam, iron x, 2 bucket wash, pre wax cleanse and then a seal for now so that should make a huge difference. Si

Apologies for the delay! This is the little blighter - Are you able to suggest a remedy/help? Cheers Si

I can't believe how this paint can change depending on the sun - To use a 'Tim Westwoodism' it 'pops' in the sunlight - Are there any large French car shows/meets that are worth popping along to? If memory serves me right is there one at Castle Combe - that's on my doorstep!! Si

I drove it to work today..........I think you might be right!!!! :001_tt1: Its rs getting under my skin more than I ever imagined it would! Si
