    20100521_GTX_0003.JPGWe all love this mythical and popular car, because we sailed in one being childrens, because someone in the family had one or just because it always made us want it... because it's endearing, whatever we say.
    Its great success is certainly due to the fact that with a simple mechanics, with little or no electronics, it is easy to maintain by yourself without expensive tools, without forgetting that the parts are not expensive and always easy to find. Even today, for some homes, students and people with "little budget", it is a source of great comfort at a lower price: far from car loans and garage mechanics, which are becoming more and more inaccessible. The small engines models (the most common) are very robust and still consume very little, sometimes less than recent "equivalent" cars, which makes it by definition just as ecological, if not even more by the simple fact that we we always use it instead of buying new ones ... At the level of the official technical control, benefiting from its "seniority", it does not undergo the modern standards much too restrictive, the tranquility is assured.
    Today it is still an interesting car for everyday use, especially and clearly from an economic point of view.
    Collectors are also beginning to take an interest in this 30-year-old "granny": restoration, maintenance or refurbishment, repairs, etc ... make it possible to find "newer than new" models for the pleasure of the eyes and to see this French heritage thus safeguarded.
    We have created this community to bring together all those who are interested and who wish to take part in this adventure to preserve their Renault Super 5, whether by maintenance, repair or restoration: you will find here all useful information and tips on these topics.

    To be able to ask questions and share your interest, all you have to do is register and present yourself properly!
    You do not have to have a Super 5: an interest in auto mechanics is enough

Bonjour,

Sur ma GTX, je me suis aperçu que sorties au tambours sont réalisées en cuivre et non en flexible. Du coup, je ne sais si je peux remplacer par des flexibles, et sinon, ou en trouver. ça n'a pas l'air simple. Si quelqu'un peut me dépanner?

Merciiii

Bha c'est très bien en cuivre, pourquoi tu veux les changer? Ils ont l'air super récents en plus. Quand on fait soi même l'avantage du cuivre c'est sa disponibilité et sa formabilité pour refaire des passages propres.

Pour la résistance, à l'époque mon garagiste/préparateur au Québec mettait ça sur ses restaurations et prépa course anciennes, et j'ai ça sur ma R5 ramenée de là-bas, c'est peut-être la seule pièce encore en état d'ailleurs ^^

Au moins ça ne rouille pas, la seule différence se situera dans la limite à la pression, mais a priori pas de risque sur nos vieux circuits si c'est fait avec de la bonne came, il y a plus à craindre du vieillissement des durites de frein souples!

La photo n est qu un exemple. Les miens sont déjà en cuivre  mais complètement pourris. Je cherche à avoir les deux cotés neufs. Ils font environ 40CMS et 60CMS

Je ne me souviens pas d'avoir vu des flexibles sur des cylindres récepteurs .

Ils sont, en principe, entre deux éléments mobiles entre eux : le tube sur caisse et le tube sur bras de suspension .
