Re: Buying help- 1.5dci 90 Dynamique Nav 5dr
First thing you need to remember is that the lease car will have warranty on it on top of servicing so wouldnt worry to much about repairs ...Clio and Juke use same Renault engine so power wise is similar but clio slightly lighter car and gets great reviews

2007 Megane radio code
Hi I have just bought a Megane but had a new battery fitted. I have bought the radio code but dont know how to enter the numbers. I enter the first three then dont know how to get the radio to accept the last digit it just flashes. Someone said hold button 6 down for 10 seconds but this just beeps and shows ERROR I then have to wait 90 seconds. Please can someone advise.

Re: Brake discsthe two discs have different diameters, when I did mine - I took a wheel off and measured the disc and photographed the pads went to local ECP who from this info & photo had me sorted in minuets.
Tip - Be careful pushing the calliper piston in - the ABS system doesn't like it, best open the bleed valve instead.

Clio 1.2 - Clock, radio and fan stay on with ignition off
I have a 2006 Clio which has recently developed a weird fault. When I turn off the ignition everything is fine for a couple of seconds and then the heater fan, clock light and radio all come back on (if turned on before turning the ignition off). Even if I turn the radio and heater fan off the car battery will be flat within a few hours.
I've looked through the forum and seen a few similar faults but not one where all the accessories come on.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Smoky Diesel - New BatteryHi All,
First post here but thought I'd share a finding I stumbled upon recently. Have had our 2010 1.5dCi for nearly 3 years now and it has always been really smoky when you put your foot down. We had it serviced and nothing improved, were resigned to the fact that at only 65k miles it was just a smoky mota.
Recently it started struggling when turning over and the dash recommended a new battery was needed. I obliged (pig of a job) and the interesting thing, to me at least, it that since the new battery went in it's not smoky at all!
Thought I'd share as a new battery is not that expensive and I'm hoping it may now even improve the fuel economy! Any thoughts?
Regards,
Dave

I might be saying too much but...
I can't keep it in any longer - I'm too excited for you. So I've decided I'm going to let you in now on something pretty cool that's happening in the next few days.
It's still very hush-hush so I can't say too much at this stage or I'll get in trouble but I wanted you to know that the next Chris Knott prize draw is soon to be launched and it promises to be the best one yet!
What I can tell you is that it will benefit anyone asking us to quote, between 1 March and 31 May, for a car we don't yet insure. If that's you you'll automatically be entered for the draw and this time there's more than one awesome prize.
Look, I've got to shut up now or I'll say too much but make sure you ask us for a quote under our special club scheme during March, April or May if you're interested in finding a better quote for your car insurance and you'll gain entry to the draw.
QUOTELINE: 0800 917 2274 (free for mobiles too) - please mention this forum.
When I can say more, I'll fill you in on the prize details.
best,
Nick
PS. We can quote 30 days ahead so you may be able to benefit from the draw even if you're not due until the end of June (just get your quote before 31 May).
*******************
In the meantime, here's some recent feedback about the scheme. We love hearing from you. If you've had a good experience we can pass it on to the team member/members involved to encourage them.
"We have 2 cars insured with you and you've been great. We've just ordered 2 new ones for delivery in March so we'll be calling you again soon to see what you can do. Thanks again." scrounger, BabyBMW
"They are brilliant. I know the company well and have used them for many years. Both my Golf V5 and Volvo are insured with them. I know Nick's word is good. Known him for many years and a true professional as his company. Give them a try. Loyalty bonuses help on renewal too." Matt, UK-MkIVs
"Rang for a quote yesterday, spoke with Rebecca who was very friendly and very helpful, K&N induction kit declared and accepted on policy with a very good price. Took out policy and printed cover note and documents an hour later. Excellent service." sliderboy, CivInfo
"£62 cheaper than my current insurer. Not bad, going to ring around and see what others offer, think it may be hard to beat though!" rob275, GT86 & BRZ Drivers Club
"Just got yourselves another new customer!!! Came in £50 cheaper than Axa who were the cheapest of all others!" slackworth, Audi-Sport net
"Just spoke to Kim, got me a great quote. Great service, an insurance company I recognize - not only cheap but really good cover too
