    I would like to purchase a reliable hatchback and I was considering a battery owned Renault Zoe, but do you agree correct a used Yaris will hold it's value better?  If it's a Yaris are there any models more suitable than others?  The car is being used for school runs and drop offs, about 7000 per annum mileage, 5 door, A.C would be a nice to have.

    Renault very kindly let us have a new Laguna all last weekend. It was a 1.5Dci and yes I was very impressed with it. Smooth quiet and incredibly economical. Our 4 year old Mazda MPV is beginning to cost money and my wife (who drives the Mazda) would like a change.

  • 2001 Renault Clio 1.2 immobiliser 18 Jun 2013 (Forum)
    This has caused me on one instance to call out the AA, when he turned up it started! It has been to a Renault dealership and they have found no fault and no fault "recorded" on the computer. Am I about to be let down by this fault? The car has been dealer serviced from new and the warranty expires this month!

    The central locking button by the hand brake does'nt unlock it either. Could it be a case of a WD40 injection or should I go to my Bank manager for a loan to get a Renault garage to sort it out?? Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • Renault Laguna (1994 - 2001) - 00 1.6 16v Noisy Exhaust Manifold 30 Nov 2009 (Forum)
    I have recently bought myself a 2000 (W) Renault Laguna 1.6 16v. Having spent some time finding the right one I found they often sound like the exhaust is blowing from the manifold (my one included). This is especially noticable when the car is cold but is still there once the car has warmed up.

  • Renault Clio II (2001 - 2007) - 02 1.5 dci 80 Loss of power! 5 Jul 2009 (Forum)
    No power at low revs unless the revs got to 3,200 rpm then the turbo came back into play and everything seemed normal. Fifth gear at motorway speeds was a waste of time. Local (non Renault) garage diagnosed the problem as the ERG (intermittent notice on the diagnostics) although the car is now working ok (Typical). No warning lights at all! Any ideas??? Thanks Scott

  • Renault Clio 1 Petrol (1991 - 1998) - 1995 1.2 Replacing rear bumper 7 Jan 2009 (Forum)
    Can anybody tell me how easy (or how difficult) it would be to replace the rear bumper on my partners Mark I Renault Clio? Some kind soul crashed into the back of her and cracked it then drove off, no structural damage fortunately just the bumper itself. I've been offered a second hand bumper for next to nothing so I was wondering if it is a possible DIY effort or is it too much trouble even attempting this myself.

    I bought a 2nd hand Renault Megane 2 months ago and it had a service history that included a replacement cam belt in Oct 2007. The car has been making a squealing noise when I start it up in the morning and yesterday felt as though I was losing power which I thought was the cam belt.
