Just a spray with WD40 or similar to clean the rod where it passes through the bush, and then a light spray with same to lubricate it. Hope this works Jonathan.

Camping near Beaulieu 2024.

Hope we get to meet up Leonardo.

Not sure what you are showing us there. Doesn't look very Renault 4 to me, or am I missing something? Try pressing the button by the gear-stick inside the car.

I guess it might be an idea Richard, just in case anyone else is thinking of joining us.

Anyone here thinking of attending this years festival in September?

I have also recently replaced my GTLs Bosch battery, and I thought that had done well at 7 years of continual use, so I've replaced with the same as quoted by you jjad.

I think it might be Leeds. Just saying :whistle:

Yes too big for Fergat wheels.

Hi, not sure what you mean by "the old petrol ", but if you use higher octane E5 you shouldn't have any problems. If you also use an anti ethanol product, for example Millers Oils one, which also has an octane booster, your engine should run smoothly. Some R4 engines suffer from fuel evaporation...

The only Brit. In the piazza Volterra Tuscany 2023.

Hi guys. See events section for more comments. I might possibly be going again this year. Kind regards Bry.

Hello Martin, I can recommend this event. I've been to the last two, and on both occasions it was a great experience, and to be made so welcome by Italian R4 enthusiasts was wonderful. I hope you and other R4 enthusiasts take up the challenge of driving to Chianti Country. You won't regret it...

Some of you might be interested in an Italian road trip this year to glorious Tuscany.

This company sounds ideal, it won't be cheap I'm sure, but they look very professional, and it should come with a guarantee I would say. Plus you should get their advice regarding running in your engine. JdeW you are right, R4s were indeed assembled in Wexford from the early 70s right through to...

One thing is pretty sure, you're not going to find a new engine. If you buy a supposedly rebuilt one you can't be certain its been done to the correct standard, causing you more aggro down the line. I would say your best course of action is to get your engine rebuilt by a reputable engine...

Do any of you adventurous R4 R6 or Estafette owners fancy a trip to the South of France? I've done this one a couple of times, and can thoroughly recommend it. It's a very friendly affair run by true enthusiasts. Check it out on Facebook.

I'm glad to hear you got it all sorted in the end Harry, and happy I was able to help with the recovery to Devon. This is the extinguisher in my car, which I've mounted on the chassis cross member under the passenger seat for easy access. I've a second smaller one as backup in the passenger...

Well done to both of you, oh and the car too Reid, epic trip. I've had a staycation this year at home in Cornwall, but hope to hit the road again next year all being well. Anybody fancy an Italian trip?

Check out Autodoc website Simon, loads to choose from, and keen prices. I think your car is post 84, so you will need one stamped M20 x 1.5mm. Best to check before you order.
