According to Takata, the chemicals in the airbags’ explosive charge can...

Clio coolant renewal

Hello, newbie here!
My wife owns a Clio ph3 1.4 RT auto, and I want to find out what the procedure is to change the coolant. Is it a question of taking off the bottom rad hose, or can I find a drain plug somewhere? I think it has an E-type engine...not too sure.

Renault Megane Scenic 'Lean' Problem

by GavWah » 22 Nov 2005, 22:13

First post

I recently purchased a 2000 V Megane Scenic (Phase2). Had an easy life, fully maintained and only showing 34,000.

My partner and I noticed that the car seems to occasionally 'lean' slightly to the right hand side and the steering wheel is not centered, sitting at the 11 o'clock position (related? I'm not sure) when driving in a straight line....

Last post

If the car is leaning, although checking the tracking might help to see if the tracking is out.

It won't help in finding out if something else is out of alignment, and GavWah as you say the car is leaning. Then the car should have a laser chassis alignment check, by an independent specialist who will have the correct equipment to check the car...

1992 clio 1.4 rt On starting from cold engine does not run smoothly feels like the choke is not working. But as it is fuel injected (single point) there is no choke,as like a carburettor.Once the engine is warmed up it runs sweetly. Is there a cold start resistor or something I should be checking?.

Thermostat and sensors for the coolant OK?. Not too sure how they work myself but.... generally there's a sensor for your temp guage and a sensor for the cold start, which is wired throught the ECU and tells it the engine is cold and there for to over fuel the injection. As the engine warms this sensor tells the ECU there's no need for too rich a...

Actually, it sometimes does, and when it does it stays on untill the lights are turned off.

Anyone shed any light of the scenic prob ?

by tonespeed1999 » 06 Sep 2005, 01:42

First post

the key fobs can loose there codes causing the engine immobiliser to stay on.
the crankshaft position sensors can also play up,and some of the range suffered from fuse box failure.
if you find a good reputable garage with good diagnostic equipment, they should be able to pin point the...

have since noticed that when lock and unlock is pressed with the plip, the locking button on the door is trying to move but only a fraction
any ideas ?

One of the rear doors on my scenic is locked but now refuses to unlock with the other 3.
For a couple of days before it failed the solenoid was making a creaking noise
Can anyone advise of how to dismantle the door with it locked and closed ?
cheers

clio rear door problems

by winch6969 » 25 Aug 2005, 02:09

First post

i take it both front doors open with c/l if so normally it would be an earth problem with the rear doors/wireing,near the drivers side front under the kick plate there should be two earth wires check they are clean and tight with no corosion. hopefully that should sort it

Last post

I have a problem with my 2001 clio 1.5 dci,the 2 rear doors wont unlock.One side acted up first then the other after a couple of weeks.The solenoids seem to move but wont unlock.Could i disconnect the wiring at the rear locks and connect the battery to it to try and open the doors. Does anybody have any other ideas.
