Get yourself a new one from Renault - they arent too much.

Hi Northy, apparently they are NLA?? Unless someone can furnish me with a part number as my Renault contact does sometimes get it wrong.

Well spotted mate! I have just bought a used one but might also buy a new one to keep as a spare. My car will only do 1500 miles a year so may be worth keeping a backup.

Thanks again.

You could answer this for me a suppose. Is this part next to the rear beam? I think mine might need one, or it certainly needs the old one greasing up as it can get stuck

I also might need one but I've read that these can be lubed up to sort out the problem of it being sticky, if you're lucky that is.

Mines getting soaked in WD40 on a daily basis so I'll let you know. My renault contact said they can be freed up but I've bought a spare off Liam (ikcio86) just incase.

Let me know how you get on, how difficult it is to free up and/or replace etc as I'd be keen to know.

Managed to free mine using liberal amounts of GT85 and depressing the brake pedal so it's now back to 100% :)
