Hi all,
just bought a 2008 tourer. One of the parking sensors has been pushed/washed by jet wash into the rear bumper.
Is this a bumper off job, or, can it be done without removal?
Thanks in advance

Hi ALL,


Need Help!!


My 63 plate clio dci 1.5 gearbox is playing up. It has been sticking and not wanting to go into to gear, then for a week fine, and now this problem has re-occurred. Taken it to the garage and he is saying he thinks it maybe selector forks that can be at fault, has anyone else had this issue and does anyone know if they have been recalled or would be under warranty? Car has only done 35k miles, this is ridiculous issue to have!


Thanks


Rhys

Dear all,

Please be gentle as this is a first for me, I'm a new member but have been a renault owner (megane grand scenic 2005 2.0 petrol) for over 2 years now. I bought it with the usual issue of water ingress and ruined wiring loom under the passenger seat, after many hours soildering its been one of my favorite cars to use.

Based on my great experience of the above I purchased a non running 1.6 auto 2008 in the hope it may be the same issue - but man how wrong was I. After many many man hours im close to throwing the towel in.

Wondering if there were any auto electrician whizz 'kids' in the Epsom Surrey area that could help.

Main fault code that re appears is DF038 - Auto trans multiplexed emission missing, multiplex frames missing or invalid values. (Fault on the computer producing the signal or can connection fault. The vehicle basically acts like you are trying to start it without the brake pedal depressed - (fuel pump primes, dash lights up etc) but doesnt crank.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

A while ago I posted that my clutch was slipping despite being only a year or so old on my camper van. Just had the mechanic looking at it and replacing the clutch - he's discovered the reason for it slipping - it's covered in oil. He's cleaned the oil up and had it running for a couple of hours, then stuck it on the ramp but can't find any leak. However it's clearly leaking from somewhere (slowly - I knew there was a small oil leak before I took it in, but didn't know it was related - not leaking fast enough to trigger the oil low lamp) - his only suggestion is to take it for a run (hour or so on the motorway) and then stick it back on the ramps and see if we can spot the leak. He says it's engine oil rather than gearbox oil,

Any suggestions on what it might be or diagnostics we could run?

Thanks
Ewan

Kangoo done 140k miles cut out on motorway yesterday and showing sensor supply voltage fault

Is it likely to be one of the 5v sensors or the feed wire in the loom somewhere?

Anyone had this before and rectified?

It’s intermittant so obviously more difficult to diagnose

Hi. I've got a 54 plate scenic 1.5 dci. When I put the lights on the wipers go slow if at all and stop half way up the screen. And the drivers side light shuts off. It has had new wiper motor new wiper stalk and light stalk. All earth points have been cleaned up. All connections seem non corroded. Pls help I'm at a loss to what's causing this issue. I can't test voltage from alternator till I buy new battery for my tester. Any advice ideas would be very very gratefully received.

Hello,

I have a Renault Clio 1.5dci 2004, About 10 mins into my morning journey from home to work after getting to optimal temperature, my temperature gauge drops down to two bars for about ten seconds and then goes back up to normal temperature, Why is this?

Thanks

When I exit the car, close the doors, and press the lock button on my key fob, the doors won't lock. There's no response from any button on the fob for that matter.

I have to put the fob inside the keycard slot, enable ignition, remove the fob to disable ignition, exit the car, ensure all doors are closed, then press the lock button to get central locking to work.

This happens a couple of times each week at random.

Suggestions? Thank you.

So never saw the W in that engine code till today when I changed oil filter.:frown2:
Anybody know what the W is trying to tell me?............ hows it different from a "standard" K4M761:wink2:
Found in a late 2004 Scenic II with a DP0 box.

Apparently my Googling efforts are futile other than allowing me to actually buy such an animal if I ever needed another

I have a late 2006 Espace 2 litre petrol Auto and do limited mileage each year. Since the last service which was just 9 months ago it has done around 7000 kms but already the "change oil soon" warning has come up. Is that normal or does something need adjusting? The oil is still very clean on the dipstick. Alas now I can't read how far to the "next service" message but I am sure it was still was over 8000 kms still to go. Is there any way to get that back or check?

Anyone with a clip in the W.Midlands?

Hi all,

As per title I would like to diagnose my 2001 Scenic 1.9dci to get to the bottom of the "oh so common no power issue". I have tried various tips and tricks listed on here but before I throw more money at it, I would like to pin point the issue if possible.

So if there anyone on here that have had success reading codes on a pre 2004 diesels and have a moment to spare, please let yourself known. I would gladly compensate for your time my mean of cash or intoxicating drinks.
Many thanks,

Nick

Hi all,
just bought a 2008 Laguna 3 estate 2.0 150 DCi. When pulling away, the gearstick moves back about an inch/inch and a half on taking up drive in 1st.
This is only noticeable in 1st gear. Is it possible the gearbox mount or rear engine mount?
Your thoughts welacome

Thanks in advance

I know k4m's are pretty much inter-changable if you swap stuff over- but really would like to know if theres as easy way to find engine code

Hi!
I am just about to destroy the dashboard of our scenic Mk2 to find the origins of a non-spinning blower. Power on fuse is OK.


The car has an electronic climate control module with LCD and about 8 blower speeds. That's why I BELIEVE this car has no resistor pack but some PWM control system instead. I have no circuit other than the useless stuff in the Haynes Manual which is unsuitable.
At the back of the module are three connectors and it turns out that the middle one with the fat wires is unused and sits in a blanking aperture of the module.
1) Is that a connector for a manual climate control with the resistor pack?




2) On the bottom right of the passenger food well (centre console housing removed) I found this massive, also blank/unconnected connector. Big fat wires, Does anybody know what this is?


See pix


Thanks

Had been experiencing battery being drained and 'Low Battery' warning when starting the car, and replacing the battery did not fix the issue. Always less than 12v when the car was started.

I can see many people just get the alternator replaced, but being inclined to try and fix the problem myself, I decided to give it a go.

After hearing that an alternator replacement involves removing the radiator etc, and then also replacing the accessory belt, I determined that I would instead access the alternator brushes and regulator without removing the alternator from the car.

The alternator I have is a Valeo SG12B098, and there are many YouTube videos on taking apart Valeo's and checking the brushes.

By tying the vacuum hose to one side, and working around the air con hoses, I managed to remove the black plastic cover on the alternator (2 x 7mm nuts), and then remove the brush pack (3 x 7mm nuts).

Turns out my problem was the brushes were caked with carbon, and no longer touching the slip ring.

By tapping and carefully moving the brushes from side to side, I eventually got them unstuck from the carbon, so they could move in and out freely. Reinstalled the brush pack onto the alternator, reinstalled plastic cover, started car - bingo, 14.1 volts, and less than an hours work. Obviously, if you have extremely worn slip rings etc, this won't work for you.

Cheers,

I have a 2015/2016 Scenic. The facelift model with LED DRL'S. Looking in the headlamp assembly I can see a small 5 watt lamp. But turning on the lights to position two (the one up from the default setting for DRL'S only on, the 5 watt bulb does not come on. Is this a safety feature in the event of a DRL not operating. Either that, or the two side lights with these two small 5 watt bulbs are defective.
