Took the 04 Clio 1.5 Dci in for its first 18000 mile oil change back in May and asked exactly what they did for their £220 quid and was told change the oil and check the front brakes for wear......anyway as I'd changed the oil at 5000 and 10000 miles myself thought stuff it, in 15 years of driving I've never had anything major go on a car so to hell with the warranty. So I changed the oil and checked a few other bits myself.
Anyway 2 weeks ago the clutch started juddering ever so slightly first thing on a morning, last night the slave cylinder packed up completely ,hydraulic fluid dripping from the clutch cover, got recovered 80 miles by the AA and asked Renault for a quote on the repair and was told its gonna cost around a grand! This is for a slave cylinder and clutch kit fitting.
Anyway I've decided to bite the bullet and do the work myself but it's just typical the bloody clutch should go within 5 months of deciding not to keep up the Renault service history and warranty.
Just hope the next slave cylinder will last more than 25 thousand miles.
