Billy1 This is no help to you at all but I have several noises from my brake system. 1. When I reverse and apply the brakes it sounds like the car horn, I can just about live with that. 2.

I had a Rover 216 Cabriolet like that, it was in the garage 6 times in the first 5 months. They used to call cars like that "Friday afternon cars" because on Friday afternoon the car workers would be looking forward to the weekend and not concentrate so much on their work. It's unfortunate but as ot...

Excellent Megane

It's good to have somewhere to vent anger and to find solutions that other people have to our problems, but are Renaults all that bad ? I owned a 51 plate Meg Cab for about 5 years and it was great, I had a couple of prblems but in the 5 years overall I couldn't fault it. It was fast enough, comfort...

Thanks, it's comforting but my car has 28k miles on the clock so I guess if it was going to, it would have sorted itself out by now. I can feel another letter to RCS coming on.

Rear Brake Howl --- Help

I have seen that several of you guys have had this problem, when you reverse and apply the brakes they make a loud howling sound. I have seen here that several of you have had some results from RCS in paying for the solution. I have taken the advice from this forum by writing to RCS and this is thei...

Oil service rip off

I have just bought a 54reg 225, the garage I bought it from said they'd pay for Renault to oil service it for me. I phoned Renault, £79 for an oil service, not too bad so I booked it in. Renault phoned back that day and said, actually because it's a 225 £159, that's £80 difference....

Hi everybody.

I have just bought a Megane 225 and the brakes howl when I apply them whilst reversing . I have been reading this forum and it looks a pretty common problem. Any of you guys had a result from Renault in resolving this ?
