Hello, I have a Grand Espace Initiale in excellent condition, the only drawback is the factory intalled satnav. Does any one knoe if there is a direct replacement, I'd rather have it in the same hole but willing to consider other options if they sit well in the dashboard area.
Many thanks,
Colin

Hi - when driving along and not braking, the brakes will squeal a little, until that is, I then brake again. Moving off it will then either return immediately or at some other point after I have braked.

Loud vibration/drone on deceleration

I have a Grand Espace 2008 2.0 Dci Auto - not long after its last full service in Aug-18 I noticed a louder than normal engine(?) sound when slowing down and the auto gear box going from 3-2-1st gear. Its not apparent when over 30 mph but as soon as I slow down and it changes down, the external noise (general front left area of car) is very noticeable, like a large vibration/rumbling sound, quite rough.

Car drives normally and no warnings of any kind just louder than normal.

Renault Scenic II 2006 1.9dci Low Battery warning

Hey! So I know I have an alternator problem but maybe the "things" that happened to me will spark an answer from you.
So while driving I got the LOW BATTERY warning sign... Came home, parked car and thats that. Next day I go to my car, sit down and drive off (No Low battery error). Was driving around for about half an hour before the warning came back on and eventually my car just shut down. So fast forward I recharged my battery at home, put it back in the car, started, checked voltage and I was getting 14.2! Great all is good right?... No.... I shut the car down, started again, booom the Low battery thing came on again, went to check voltage and its ~12.5 and dropping, so that means the alternator doesnt work again... I know many tests can be done to determine it better but Im pretty bad mechanically... So my question kind of is. What can cause the alternator to work sometimes and then stop working when I start it the next time. Are the most likely culprit wiring? Or a fuse? Or just the alternator somehow managing to work "half" of the time because the brushes have worn out or something like that. Any suggestions would be welcomed( or how to do tests to determine)

Fault code meaning Clio 65 DCi

Hi
A warning light has appeared on my 2005 70K mile Clio, no loss of performance but possibly is using more fuel than before. Three fault codes are shown,
P0847 Exhaust gas recirculation throttle control circuit A /open
P0409 Exhaust gas recirculation sensor A circuit
P0670 Glow plug control module control circuit / open

Im a bit confused as it seems an EGR and glow plug module are both responsible? Any direction would be great, thanks

2012 Megane Estate No Fan or AC

I have a 2012 Megane estate 1.5 dci which has no blower or AC working. The problem started with a flat battery, after looking at fuses and moving wires etc, it started again. On another cold morning engine cranking was slow. Car eventually started but the heater fan does not work on any setting. I have checked all fuses and they all are ok and jiggled the wires but nothing. I have read about the resistor pack being faulty but I wanted to investigate if there were any relays that could be faulty. I changed the battery with a new battery so I can discount that. Any ideas would be most welcome. If anyone has any circuit diagrams to show heater circuit etc, that would be great as my Haynes manual does not show it.

Megane thumping noise ... ABS pump pulsing ??

Hi,

Well here I am again with a strange problem, the sort that only seem to happen to me :confused:

The other halfs megane tourer (2008 1.5 dci ) has a problem with a thumping noise that appears to be coming from the front RHS (Drivers side) that only appears when you pull away and reach approx 5 mph, the thumping noise lasts for a second or two and is a series of in time thumps.

But here's the rub..... it only happens following an engine start....so start the engine and pull away and you get the thumping noise, pull over and come to a stop without turning off the engine then pull away again and there is no thumping noise.
Pull up turn the engine off, restart the engine and pull away and the thumping noise will happen every time.

At first I naturally thought the thumping noise was something to do with a CV joint (driveshaft) but then I discovered it only happens on the first pull away following the engine being started, so I now believe it's the ABS pump pulsing as the car reaches approx 5mph. (The ABS pump is located on the bulkhead in front of the Driver)

There is no noticeable braking to the car when you hear the thumping noise, there are no warning lights shown on the dash and the brakes work perfectly.


Has anyone ever come across anything like this, or am I just lucky :rolleyes:




Cheers.
