[QUOTE="oscar, post: 173789, member: 2757"] BTM / SJM (down in somerset or devon) will be your best options here. being strict, yes the theory is correct regarding the dephaser. it's clearances wear out with wear and this can be reduced with more frequent than usual oil changes (every 3-6k miles no matter what) judging on mileage and not age. but realistically it's a better economy to change the dephaser with every belt because should your daphaser go in 3 months time or 3 years time, or never at all ... that's going to mean a whole new bill for a timing belt labour and resetting the timing as the dephaser is a belt off job! fred @ BTM & Dan @SJM will no doubt tell you this (i'm a renault tech) and this goes for any renault with PhaseVVT be it a renault scenic or a renaultsport megane!
