Sump...

[JE_GT]

Anyone have an idea how much a new sump costs for the 1.2 GT Engine? Might have a crack in mine as I noticed some oil on the floor under the engine :O

What makes you think you've cracked the sump? Have you hit or scraped on anything?

I would be checking for oil leaks elsewhere first. Try and find a trail down the engine somewhere (yes I know this is difficult in a Twingo engine bay lol).

Twingos like leaking from the cam cover.

Mine had a leak from the cover gasket and i know a few others on here have had the same issue too

Because I bottomed out on a speedbump quite hard about two weeks ago lol.

Luckily mine was a warranty repair but renault got sent an invoice for 1700 quid. Got to do full cambelt change and everything as part of it

There are pattern part sumps and gaskets on eBay for not a great deal. Wouldn't like to think of a cost from Renault.

if you bottomed out id have thought the subframe would have taken the hit rather than the sump.

Looks like it tbh, I was being paranoid lol. It was a ******* hard hit though, made me cringe big time.

Was it enough to make you put the ride height up a bit :?

Dont be stupid Neil, it was enough for me to not drive down that road again lol

 

[singlespeed]

I figured as much :lol:

The day you beach your car at a meet on a small bump is the day we will all be on the floor laughing and filming.

Ill park my car next to it to show you how to drive over the little bump in the road and reverse and continue doing this laughing.

Park your monster truck elsewhere please waitey

As seen at meets I park in the furthest spot from any car, usually taking two spaces or so.

These renaultSPORTS need respect
