That is cheap for a renault dealer, good plan with providing the tappets, OE spec=££.

I'd be over the moon at that too! If only all Reno dealers worked at same rates and they did the 'if u find it cheaper elsewhere...'

What do hydraulic lifters do?

First one to say 'lift things hydraulically' gets a bonio.

keep your valve clearances correctly adjusted instead of having to re shim when out of tolerance :)

i asked them to get me a price on the tappets.nice young lady phones me back and says"weve done you a realy good price on these mr todd.there only £25 each plus the vat"well once i finally figured out that there was 16 of them and realised they would be £400 i laughed and hung up. :lol: :lol:
