I have the airbag of my Dokker which stays constantly on. the Diagnostic tools can't communicate with the box I replaced it last but it's the same. I need your advice

Hello,

I'm having trouble with my old Renault Master (1987).
I need to change the inner tie rods.

Problem is, my steering rack needs a female joint like this one :

The official reference has a male end and so, it does not fit.
I have no idea why the steering rack was replaced with this model, neither which model it is exactly.

Either I find...

I have a carminat radio/cd/GPS.
I have been trying to connect with a auxiliary cable. I have followed instructions on YouTube but when it states to go to EXPERT then scroll to Update then aux then on/off. It goes directly back to the radio. Concequently I cannot connect to my phone.

Hey

So my Renault Clio from 2019, 0,9 tce engine, is on its third set of discs and pads. (done 69.000 miles)

When I got my second set of disc and pad on at 33000 miles, this thing started happening where the brakes would ROAR when you applied them

(pressing the brake , it goes WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAARRR)

Mostly with normal, soft braking - if...

Hi
I have a early MK3 Megane, if you cast your eyes down toward the gear stick you will see a small panel in the lower dash, as it is an early one it only has AV ports in it behind that useless flap, does anyone know of a kit that can be purchased to convert these ports to an SD card reader, the later models have a usb connection in there, mine...

Hi.
My wifes Renault scenic 1,9 DCI year 2008 is very slow at low speed, bad acceleration.
After nearly 1800 rpm the turbo kicks in and manifold pressure increases to up to 35 psi.
I have checked the vacum pipes for the waste gate.
I have replaced the MAP sensor and the pressure regulator valve for the wastegate.
The MAF reads 13-50 g/sec at...

The wipers stopped working and maybe the fault is in the UPC, because it does not give power to the wiper motor. I decided to take the UPC out on the table to check it but how do you take the white box out off the black cover without breaking anything?

I need to replace the A/C condenser on our Clio 4 BUT having a quick look it's looking like a HUGE job possibly requiring the front bumper etc being removed.

I have a replacement rad already just need some advice swapping them over please.

I did our previous car(Citroen) and that was easy and straight forward.

Hi
As you can see I’m new to the forum and just about competent with Morris Minor technology. Last year I bought a 2002 Kangoo 1.9D with 250000 kilometres on the clock which ran perfectly for 3 months, then the engine management light, the preheat light, began to appear after the first attempt to start, after starting a few times it disappeared...

Hi guys. I bought this car: VX60KNM last week, but for some reason, Hastings can't find it in their database. They have asked me for the exact model of it, but I don't know the exact model and Google hasn't really helped in my hunt to identify it. So, how can I find the exact model of this Renault Grand Scenic?

Cheers!

Hi all. I've seen the most lovely Renault laguna initiale on a 10 plate. Really nice inside and out. Going at a great price as the electronic handbrake is showing on the dash as faulty. Should I walk away? What costs would o be looking at to fix and would it need to go to a specialist to fix it,? Cheers, Dean

For some reason recently everytime I put my foot on the break pedal the rear wiper moves slowly when it is switched of at the control stalk. It then stops if I lift my foot of the brake pedal.The rear wiper works as it should when switch on at the control stalk. Any ideas? Is there a control module for the rear wiper. Maybe it's gone faulty....

Hi I've just bought a megane 2009 it has a rain sensor that doesn't work (if the stalk is set time auto it does nothing)

I've removed the sensor and I've always been under the impression there should be a gel pad between the sensor and the window but there wasn't.

Am I mistaken in this or should there be a gel pad?

Thanks

I am replacing the seals and piston on the rear brake caliper on my 2004 Renault Laguna MK2 1.8 petrol. My problem is I have removed the small seal that is located inside the piston on the handbrake rod and can't remember which way round it goes !!!!! The seal has a chamfer on it and I'm not sure the direction it fits on the rod.

Hi guys/girls. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a 2011 Renault Grand scenic with a possible gearbox problem.

Hi, I’ve just traded my old faithfull megane estate (2004) for a slightly younger sport tourer, now I’m trying to figure out what model I’ve got 🤪
It’s a Z/KZIG/KZ1G06 ... 2011. Diesel. Manual.
It’s 1461 cc. Guess that’s 1.5 ? Although there seems to be 1.6 ‘s as well.
Any ideas ??

Whilst jump starting the car with the assistance of a 'Helpful Friend', my attention lapsed for a mo and I didn't notice he'd attached the jump leads the wrong way round!

There was a bit of a nasty smell and we both then went to the pub. Have we killed the car or will it just have blown a fuse? I did a quick check, but they all seemed not to have...

I think I have cocked up and allowed the brake fluid reservoir to empty while bleeding the rear brakes after swapping the rear axle hard lines for flexible lines. (I blame the ridiculous location of the reservoir buried behind the cylinder head!).
After topping up the reservoir, the left rear brake bleeds OK with apparent normal brake pressure....

I have a 2002 renault clio 1.2 with a screaming alternator belt. It should be a simple job but the only problem is that my car has the air con unit that sits on top of the alternator and belt.
How do i get to the belt? will i have to remove the AC unit? or will i have to get acces elsewhere? :-D

Dear all

I recently bought this car in Glasgow and drove it around 100 miles home to Belfast, seemingly without issue. Once very briefly I noticed a drop in power but this only lasted a couple of seconds and didn't come back so I thought little of it. I arranged an MOT and when I started the car that morning it behaved exactly as you would expect when...

I have a Renault capture 2016 occasionally when starting up the vehicle I get two beeps when I first had the vehicle it used to display the reason why the problem that has found.

Afternoon all,
The blowers on my Scenic Mk3 have stopped working. I noticed water in the driver's side footwell so have cleared the scuttle drains. What else do I need to check to try and get it working again.
Nothing is blowing at all from the blowers.

Thanks in advance

Hello All

The radiator cooling fan on my Clio has stopped coming on when the engine gets hot.

Have checked the fuse in the panel inside the car, but don't know if a fuse or relay in the engine bay fusebox has blown.

Can photograph this fusebox if necessary.

The fan works if the + is connected directly to the battery.

Hello all,

I recently bought a 1999 Megane I - 1.9 DTI and turbo hoses -I think they're also called turbo intercooler hoses- are slightly teared where the metal clamps are and leaking oil from there. I'm in Turkey and I have ransacked the mechanics here and also got in touch with Renault Turkey. We couldn't find these two hoses. I just wrote to...

Yesterday both my keys stopped working (for locking/unlocking car, starting and driving unaffected)
I changed batteries in both but still no joy. The central locking still works fine from the dash button. Last night before bed I had my keys in my hand to lock the front door and I pressed the Renault key button and I heard the car lock! I cycled it...
