[QUOTE="waitey, post: 149517, member: 580"] Picked it up and my god was the gear lever stiff for the first few miles! After 5 or so miles it was easier to change gears but somehow it feels as if the distance between gears is shorter than before confusingly enough, I've heard of the Clio RS getting a revised box but doubt that would be the case with the twingo? Can feel the difference between worn lower balljoints and a new pair. Also I said there was a rattle coming when I was in reverse a few times and they changed the rear boot latch and replaced the rubber around the drivers door as it was peeling off. As it was done under warranty they said the invoice paperwork gets sent to warranty so I asked if they could print me a copy for my own records. Only negative thing is my steering is now off again :( I just had that laser aligned about a month ago aswell so that will have to be redone before FCS. Edit: I'm going to take it easy for the next 6-1000 miles and get the oil replaced at 1000 miles just to be on the safe side, what oil type/grades can I use as I will be looking to replace it with the best stuff I can find.
