[clarkiev6]

should be all sorted for less than 200 quid all in....i'll let peter tell the story..
as i'm far too busy fixing renaults that the dealers can't :roll:

A list of failures.

CR4PPY battery terminals / connectors. Losing vital volts to resistance.
Bad engine / gearbox earth. Losing vital volts to resistance.
Starter motor full of clutch dust (due to previous clutch destruction :twisted.

Intermittent starting fault. 2 breakdowns. 2 trips to the stealers £200+ spent. No resolution. Complete waste of time. Facing £500+ bill to swap starter to resolve.... maybe.

One trip to meet clarkie in Bristol services on Sat. Fixed on Monday. All for £200.

Which is better service? Which would I recommend? Hmmm :? :wink:

Cheers Clarkie! Excellent as always!

All sorted mate. The starter is SUPER powerful. I'm thinking of having the engine removed and using just the starter! :shock: :wink:

The zorst is all good now as well. I just need to do a bit of a touch up job where the paint has been burnt/rubbed off.

Top work clarkie!

Cheers mate!
Peter

your welcome peter..

Peter,

Did Clarkie replace/repair the starter or just clean it out ? £200 seems a great price given how hard it seems to remove the little fella ...

It was just cleaned out since mine was fine it was just full of clutch material.
