Thank you Mervin- was getting timing belt done at 6 yrs on Duster and I was challenging proposal by garage to replace water pump bug based on your second opinion I will tell them to go ahead . Great video / Thank you
It was beautiful but I had to sell it due to my body not being comfortable on it any more. I now have a Varadero which is so comfortable but will always love the VFR.

No, I did not trust myself to do it. I used a local Renault specialist, roughly £330.00

How much did the whole repair cost? Thanks in advance
It was approx £300.00 including parts & labour from an independent Renault specialist.
