Avoid mistakes when mouting VAG racks

Triscan now introduces two new references (851029471 and 851029472) with inner tie rods and boots. 

The two new references replace the old type (8510 29420). It has especially been difficult to keep the boot sealed, and this can lead to dirt and damp entering the system and causing damage on the rack. With the two new references, it will be easier to make a correct and perfect replacement of the rack and the axial joint, as the axial joint is an integrated part of the rack.

The importance of cleaning the entire cooling system when replacing the water pump

The water pump is too often and quite erroneously pointed out as the culprit in damage.  In most cases, however, it is not the water pump itself, but other circumstances which eventually cause the water pump to fail.

The prerequisite to acquit the water pump is generally subject to the water pump being of OE quality. Another prerequisite is that the water pump is driven by a properly fitted timing belt system, in those cases where it is part of timing belt system.

Handbrake cable for Renault Grand Scenic 2003-2009: Triscan has it!

The original handbrake cables to a Renault Grand Scenic with an electric handbrake is only available if you buy the complete unit with a control box, a motor and housing (price approx. € 470) OE ref. 360101216R.

But not all repairs need replacing of the control box, the motor and the housing. So there is money to save if only the cable needs to be replaced. And as the only ones on the market, Triscan now stocks handbrake cables as a separate unit (Triscan ref. 8140251201).

Expansion of A- references within the self-adjusting clutch cables (OE design)

To meet the demand from the market Triscan now offers two types of self-adjusting clutch cables for 21 of our most popular references. Both types of cables secure the same function in the car, but the decision which cable to us is individual from garage to garage. So now our customers can choose which cable they want.

The VAG-type
This type of clutch cable has dominated the free aftermarket and has almost become synonymous with clutch cables with automatic adjustment. This technique is found originally on VAG but has been adapted to PSA models as well.
