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

My DS5, VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] should be eligible for recall, but my vehicle is in China and I cannot find the corresponding service provider. Could you please contact me officially and tell me how to handle this? ????_20251024002629_33_148.png

I had a Ford Granada that used to have the same problem when you turned on the lights the temperature gauge went right up it was the voltage regulator at the back of the speedo rev counter cluster if you have a manual for the Laguna it should tell you where it is and what it looks like

I am still having problems with the teperature gauge. I discovered that it goes up as soon as I switch somthing electrical, such as lights, fan or even the AC. I tend to think about somthing to do with the relay, but not sure. Any ideas?

If it were a Citroen then it have a tag riveted on to the engine block. Have a look at the block for any smooth flat surface or any small legend plates. These should have sone form of engine identifier. If not get the local dealer to have alook for the price of a beer or better for free.

I need to order a rear exhaust hanger for my girlfriend's 1.2 S reg Clio (mk2) but aren't sure which one to get from GSF as there about 7 listed with different parts numbers. The rubber is square and fits into a box shaped bracket attached to a plate that bolts onto the body.
Any suggestions?

megane 1.9 diesel engine

by reblack68 » 14 Aug 2004, 15:42

First post

Quite a lot of that will be labour but it still seems a little excessive to me. When an engine has suffered that kind of trauma you're right in thinking a whole new unit is the best bet.
The same engine can be found in a Renault Clio (old shape), 19, 21 (The 21 has 2 diesels- your one mounted transversely and a much bulkier one mounted...

Last post

we have a N reg megane with a broken engine. The cam belt snapped (72,000 - may have been the original) and the engine jammed. It has been examined by the garage who have quoted figures of £1000. I'm not sure of the actual damage, and how much of that would just be in labour. does anyone have a cheaper repair solution - I was thinking of replacing...

Road Springs

by np » 12 Aug 2004, 19:13

First post

Yes they are part of the suspension.On the front,you would have a strut,which your wheels & brakes are fitted to,Inside the strut is the shock absorber,then on the outside of that you have a coil spring.The shock absorbs the bumps etc,the spring helps smooth it all out.Basicly the same at the rear but no struts.Shock absorbers will wear...

Last post

I've just been told that my 1995 Laguna needs new road springs. The price quoted was £400+. First off, what are they (part of the suspension) and is this a reasonable amount?
The car is worth £600 tops...
Cheers.

intermittent starter

by mikgram » 09 Aug 2004, 13:16

First post

I don`t know what car you have but normally replacing the starter motor is a straight forward job disconnect the battery remove the main feed cable from the starter motor take off the spade connector from the solenoid then the two nuts holding on the starter motor itself .

My starter motor has become a bit temperamental.
Is it possible to fit a replacement without too much hassle?

92 espace v6 clutch problem

by triover » 09 Aug 2004, 03:01

First post

Hi there,
I had the same problem with my V6. The clutch did need replacing and unless you have a vehicle lift which will lift the car off the wheels is not a job for the home. It is also expensive!! I would suggest that while the garage has the gearbox out to get them to check the slave cylinder as if this goes then the box has to come out again...

Last post

it has become very difficult to select gears especially reverse in my 92 v6 espace. I presume it will need a new clutch as i can select gears if the engine is not started. My question is... is this a job for the garage or can it be done at home.

Laguna cutting out

by trevwoody » 12 Aug 2004, 17:06

First post

I had a couple of similar experiences with my Laguna cutting out. Very worrying on the M25 at 80!
Mine is 1995 2.0 RT. The garage replaced the starter motor (I had some non starts), distributor and rotor arm - one of these fixed the problem.
As for the temperature, I suffer from high temp too. This is my second Laguna and it runs a lot hotter...

Last post

I recently bought a 1998 laguna 2.0 5 door,which is a great car to look at and drive except when ive been driving for 30 mins or there abouts it starts to cut out plus the temp gauge seems to go straight to half way from the start...so 2 questions...
Q1...has anyone else had the cutting out problem and if so what was the cause and solution..???...

Dear All
Thinking of changing my trusty 1997 TD Xantia for a Laguna II 1.9 Diesel. Probably be a 2001 or 2002 model.
Any help comments would be appreciated on things to look out for e.t.c.
I notice that some have 6 speed gearboxes, there is a 105bhp and 120 bhp engine - Are they noticibly different in performance/economy.
Many Thanks

Hi
Bought the wife a runaround 18 Months ago - A Clio 1.2 Oasis 3door
Zippy around town but not great at long distances. Only problem encountered was with the alternator - Easy change apart from the room around it. Overall she is very happy with it. She gets 40 - 45 mpg. Price looks OK. Don't know whether the one you are looking at is a 3 or 5...

We have been offered the above to buy in a few weeks time £300, 49K on clock, 1 months MOT.
Whats your feelings please if you have owned one?
Any good or what?

Laguna 1.8 Idles at 3,000 RPM!

by johntaylor » 06 Aug 2004, 00:01

Changed head gasket and had it skimmed. 8 valve, 1998. Re assembled and it idles at 3,000 RPM, and hunts. I suspect it has something to do with the idle valve but why it should go since the head change I have no idea. All help appreciated please.
Thanks
John
