Good look mate, a couple of valium will ease the anxiety! Only joking - I'm sure everything will be ok.

Let us all know how it went.

Well for all those intrested it failed!!!! On a rear brake bulb!!! Can you belive it! As a few will know i have lexus clusters on the back with LED brake bulbs (All BS standard I hasten to add!) Well the LED had failed and the dealer was going to charge me £75 for dianostics as they wouldnt touch the "none renault" light cluster! and they refused to change the bulb for me with a standard one which meant I had to have a retest at a later date! I drove home replaced the LED with a spare and rang back to ask them to check it. "oh it will be Monday before we can retest it" So I kicked off, basically all they had to do was check that the bulb was replaced and working correctly which it was. The lady went away and said I will speak with the technican. She came back and said if you bring it back today they will see what they can do but I would have to wait as they were very busy! I took it back and checked it again and it passed strangley enough!!! Hehe
I cant believe I forgot to check it before. Normally I go right over the car to make sure everything is ok, still its done now for another year and i can laff at the cheers in the garage from the other mecanics when they tested my air horn!!!
Kind Regards

Nice one Scoop thats a result. Pity about the customer service though or lack of it. It's shocking when you have to kick up a fuss just to get a light checked out. If you'd waited till Monday they'd probably have managed to charge for a retest. ;-)
