Wanted flexible turbo coolant pipe that comes from the back of the turbo down and also more importantly the pipe that that attaches to which has a Tee and goes under the turbo.
No doubt it will be turbo off again to replace the joy can't wait.

Happy to buy a decent second handone or new if you know a dealer that can deliver. I still have yet to find a renault dealer that can get anything alpine.

Me too. They are worse than useless! Went in to check about a new battery just last week. They quoted £166 plus VAT but said neither they or France had one anyway. As I say, useless.

I have a great relationship with my Renault Garage.....always more than helpful, I ca`nt fault them one little bit from the stores through to the service manager :D :D :D always more than helpful !!!...and the last car I bought from them was the Alpine :wink:

Get a Lucas Surpreme.... 4 year Guarantee.....around the £35 -£40 mark.....but you will have to plane off two of the four retaining lips around the base so it will fit the original battery carrier. I have had one in for years now,....not a hint of a problem. :wink:

Yeh, it's for the 610. Bumper's coming off soon anyway and I know the battery is getting on a bit and was left to die and recharged a few times with the previous owner so thought I might as well change it whilst it's off! Only tried Renault for a laugh really. To be fair though, my dealer is very helpful and do try hard, they just don't seem to have access to any Alpine parts!! 'Bit too old mate!' :shock:

I actually removed the battery carrier from the car and took it to Lucas House, saw a mate, who took it to their batt store, and came back with the Surpreme...result ( with a plane, of course :wink: )

Mr D is your best bet at the moment, he has a good contact,
i've been ordering parts in France and normally no problem, but lately stuff just hasn't been turning up at all
