Support Boite Clio 2 RS

Why replace the gearbox silent bloc on your Clio 2 RS?

Over time and through heat cycles, the original rubber of your gearbox mount sags and cracks. Ignoring the wear of this genuine Renault silent bloc means accepting a progressive decline in driving pleasure. A failing engine mount leads to excessive engine movement, causing vagueness in gear selection and, in severe cases, collateral damage to your linkage or exhaust system.

The risks of a worn engine mount during spirited driving

On a Clio 2 RS phase 1, 2, or 3, front-end precision and engine responsiveness are key to driving enjoyment. By not replacing your worn gearbox silent bloc, you lose that direct connection with your machine. You will experience jerks during quick gear changes and engine instability during heavy braking or tight cornering.

Genuine Renault quality for total reliability

Choosing this original manufacturer part is the only way to guarantee a perfect compromise between stiffness and dampening. Unlike low-quality aftermarket parts, this gearbox silent bloc strictly adheres to Renault Sport specifications for increased longevity and optimal safety.
