Went to the Renault dealer for a recall (something with that stupid electronic hand brake). As my car was chocking a bit and sometimes I had to put my foot on the accelerator to start it (electronic button operated ignition) I asked them to look at it. Few weeks and a £1.5k later - after fitting new timing belt, reprogramming, fitting new pulley etc. - they decided that I need new spark plugs.
They fitted them. It's even worse, as I've got "check emissions" light on. Went to the indie garage and was told to replace the coils. Dealer had only one cable in stock, wankers.
French stupid car. Mirrors don't want to unfold when it's raining. Another lightbulb went, day after getting the car back from the dealer. Screenwash doesn't feel like living the tank and moving towards the windscreen. What a total wank. Never French again for me. I'd rather buy a Skoda.
