and they're actually fairly reliable tbh... no problems at all.

Probably true. Just the horror stories I heard from Clio Sport owners when I was considering buying one a few years ago turned me off the Renault Sport gear. Hella fun to drive but wouldn't want to have to pay for owning one.

meh, is rather look good going slow, than look ugly going fast
Ha it'll take more than a car to help you, bud! (No, I don't know you - you just left yourself wide open with that one)

Yeh I suppose they might go a few weeks without breaking down. One owner I spoke to gave his service rep a spare key, so each time it broke down he just called the service rep to come and get it.

we had a regular clio 1.6A without breaking down since 2007, it finally broke because my sister went into a pole. so, they're not that bad.

a 2002 laguna that was sold in 2008 also worked very very well, no breakdowns at all..

the laguna before though. LOL. gearbox issues gearbox issues gearbox issues.

    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.  
    • This thread keps giving with the OMG!
    • A quick google, and some E39 users have found pulling my sensor out/apart and cleaning it alleviates their issue. Then get the oil warning to go off, and once it is off (from the sensor saying it was unhappy) some find they can just unplug it and it is happy to just keep going now. Maybe give it a crack? If you can actually pull the sensor apart, hit it with some electrical contact cleaner.
    • Yep. In the E39 it's slightly different than the others. Honestly I'd just leave it but every time I drive the car it tells me oil is low and that just makes me check the dipstick. It is a BMW Afterall and it tries to expel it's own oil regularly.  Thankfully it's not like my E90 that has no dipstick at all so you just gotta trust it.
