  • Renault Scenic (2003 - 2009) - 04 1.9dci "Air compressor sensor faulty",poor MPG 22 Mar 2009 (Forum)
    My 2004 1.9dci has been returning poor mpg for a few weeks. Couldn't find problem so took it to local Renault dealer. They say its a faulty "Air compressor sensor". They say that I need to replace this sensor and have air con re gassed in the process. Cost of £320. Is there any fuse I could take out to stop this happening and just live without the air con?

  • Renault Scenic DCi 80, P2413 OBD-II 20 Mar 2007 (Forum)
    Fault code scanner reports P2413 "Exhaust Gas Recirculation System Performance" Reading about lots of problems with EGR valves on Renaults I decided that must be the problem - so I changed the valve. I still have the same fault - can anyone please please offer any pointers as to what else could be wrong. The car seems to run ok but I am loathe to drive it without knowing what the problem is.

DD}
  • Renault Modus 17 Oct 2004 (Forum)
    For 10K this seems a cracking little car and certainly it felt thoroughly well built when I went to the dealer today. It seems to have the charm and character of the old Renault Five but obviously better engineered given the newness of the design. I like the nifty 'boot chute' as they call it. Would be interested to hear what any owners have found before the cheque book comes out.
  • H10 bulbs? To fit a Renault fog lamp. 17 Dec 2003 (Forum)
    I run a fairly new Renault and am looking without much success for a replacement bulb for a front fog lamp ( no rush cos they only get used abou twice a year ). The bulb is quoted in the owners handbook as H10 which is what is stamped on the plastic bayonet fitting integral with the bulb.
  • Coil problems on Renaults 7 Nov 2003 (Forum)
    On reading this site regularly I have only ever noticed issues with coilpacks on VAG products however I'd like all to know that it also extends to Renaults. My wife's Scenic (2001 - 1.6) packed up last week at 18k miles. Apparently 1 coil of the four had gone (driving to the garage was very lumpy) but they replaced all four. The receptionist knew exactly what the problem was and explained they saw cases of it daily and had plenty of stock of spare coils.
  • Renault's great gamble 31 Jul 2002 (Forum)
    At last I understand why Renault launched the Avantime - it was to prepare us for the new Megane. We will be made to appreciate Anglia-on-steroids body styling, even if it takes forever. I was hoping that the reverse-slope rear screen pillar was a styling trend which was dead and buried with the Vauxhall Tigra, but what does everyone else think?

  • Renault Megane Remote Locking 15 Oct 2001 (Forum)
    Hi, I've got an excellent Renault Megane 1.6 16v RT 2000 W - the new shape ones, which is very good apart from the fact the remote locking won't work! At first the 2 keys worked but only when a fair distance from the car! As you got nearer they wouldnt work!
  • Renault Clio Expression + 3 Oct 2001 (Forum)
    Local dealer (Portsmouth) has a published list price of £8950 for the five-door - should I expect to get any discount from this and/or some sort of deal on optional extras such as metallic paint? Renault's build quality reputation hasn't been too good in the past, but the models we've test-driven appear to stand up well enough to the competition (Corsa, Fiesta, Micra) - is this true in others' experience?
  • Renault Clio - Renault Retail Group, long distance selling 14 Apr 2015 (Forum)
    I wrote early last month regarding issues with the Renault Retail Group were i was quoted £4000 for a PX against a Renault Megane Coupe (London West) only to find that after i paid my deposit, i was told that they had given me the incorrect PX price and they dropped the price to £2000 PX against the Coupe and the sale fell through.

  • Renault 5 EV 10 Aug 2021 (Forum)
    This looks very attractive. We (as in my family) had a couple of R5s back in the late 1970s. Great cars although corrosion was a problem. However, most...
