Grease on wheel nuts???

who in their right mind would own anything French or Italian ? they are ugly, expensive for parts and most of the time a bloody pain in the arse to work on ! no wonder our local Renault dealership can't get any body to fill their vacancies, for the reasons above !!!!!!

You obviously don't know what you're doing then. I've had no bother working on any of Cit BX/Pug309/Renault25/Cit ZX or had parts that have been any more expensive than for brit makes. And I'm by no means a clueful mechanic.

Eejit.

Cheers,

no obviously not ! 24 years in the trade, full city & guilds accreditation, on going training all the time, you never stop learning so with all due respect I think im qualified to know what im doing and saying !

It's interesting how many garages run away screaming from hydraulic cits, because they're a bit different. In fact once you get your head round the fact that things run via pipes, not big obvious springs and such, they're actually quite easy to work on.

Are you one of these people?

cheers, clive

no Clive im not one of those people, I work in an independent garage and have worked in the same garage since I left school & followed in my fathers footsteps, we work on all sorts even Renaults, Citroens ect, in fact ive just started to strip a Renault Megan with a head gasket gone & I'll stand by my original statement they are a pain in the arse to work on !
