RENAULT ALPINE GTA
Technical Bulletins
As is common with most manufacturers Renault released a series of technical bulletins or updates throughout the production run of the GTA. These were a supplement to the MR 273 Workshop Manual and covered many safety or reliability issues. The majority were printed on yellow paper. An example is given below.
