wiring in towbar electrics

I have a 2005 Renault Scenic mkII j84 and was wondering how I go about wiring the towbar electrics in. I am not sure if it's CANbus or not. If it's not can I still use the bypass relay just to be on the safe side?
Has anyone wired one of these cars? I already have the towbar however cannot see any spot for where the previous owner might have had it wired as it's not wired at the moment.

SeX eDuCaTiOn

------------------------------------------------------------------


Little Johnny was 7 years old and like other boys his age rather
curious. He had been hearing quite a bit about 'courting' from the
older boys, and he wondered what it was and how it was done. One day
he took his question to his mother, who became rather flustered.
Instead of explaining things to Johnny, she told him to hide behind
the curtains one night and watch his older sister and her boyfriend.
This he did. The following morning, Johnny described EVERYTHING to
his mother. "Sis and her boyfriend sat and talked for a while, then
he started kissing and hugging her I figured 'Sis must be getting
sick because her face started looking funny. He must have thought so
too, because he put his hand inside her blouse to feel her heart,
just the way the doctor would. Except he's not as smart as the
doctor because he seemed to have trouble finding her heart. I guess
he was getting sick too, because pretty soon both of them started
panting and getting all out of breath. His other hand must have
been cold because he put it under her skirt. About this time 'Sis
got worse and began to moan and sigh and squirm around and slide
down toward the end of the couch. This was when her fever started.
I knew it was a fever, because Sis told him she felt really hot.
Finally, I found out what was making them so sick, a big eel had
gotten inside his pants somehow. It just jumped out of his pants
and stood there, about 10 inches long, honest, anyway he grabbed
it in one hand to keep it from getting away. When Sis saw it, she
got really scared her eyes got big, and her mouth fell open,
and she started calling out to God and stuff like that. She said it
was the biggest one she's ever seen; I should tell her about the
ones down at the lake by our house! Anyway, Sis got brave and
grabbed it with both hands tried to kill the eel by biting its head off. All of a sudden she and held it tight while he took a muzzle
out of his pocket and slipped it over the eel's head to keep it
from biting again. Sis lay back and spread her legs so she could
get a scissor-lock on it and he helped by lying on top of the eel.
The eel put up a hell of a fight. Sis started groaning and
squealing and her boyfriend almost upset the couch. I guess they
wanted to kill the eel by squashing it between them. Her boyfriend
got up, and sure enough, they killed the eel. I knew because it just
hung there, limp, and some of its insides were hanging out. Sis and
her boyfriend were a little tired from the battle, but they went
back to courting anyway. He started hugging and kissing her again.
By golly, the eel wasn't dead! It jumped straight up and started to
fight again. I guess eels are like cats they have 9 lives or
something. This time, Sis jumped up and tried to kill it by sitting
on it. After about a 35 minute struggle, they finally killed the
eel. I knew it was dead, because I saw Sis's boyfriend peel its skin
off and flush it down the toilet!!!

Modus (2009) Rear-Drum Ratchet Adjustment

Fitted new Bosch shoes (and pads) and enjoying better stopping power. Cleaned up rear-drum ratchets but difficult to adjust. Later read they are supposed to be self-adjusting by either:

a) Reversing and applying footbrake.

b) Reversing and applying handbrake.

Not sure which. Any ideas, or best done directly on the ratchet again, once the shoes have bedded-in? Thanks.

How to find my car's spec?

Hi

I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to find the full spec for my car but can't seem to find a way.
The info books etc which come with the car refer to the car in general but clearly there are variations like petrol or diesel models, engine size, model (such as dynamique, expression etc) and how the car was sold with or without extras. I see things listed but then wondering if they are standard features on all or optional extras/on certain versions. For example, the book refers to things like heated seats, heated mirrors, folding mirrors, rear parking sensors - but i'm certain it's not got many of these!
My car is a 2007 1.4 16v Expression petrol.
How can I find out all this car has (besides the obvious trying stuff and looking for it all to see what's there and what's not).
thanks :)

Renault master 2008 2.5 dci won't start

Hi, I have searched the net for months now for a soloution to this problem, I notice it is quite common, with no definitive answer! There is a lot of very helpful replies to similar symptoms. Let's start with the symptoms, the engine fires briefly then drops out, if you keep the starter motor engaged it will again fire up for a few seconds then drop out this cycle continues as long as the starter motor is engaged. I had the diagnostic guy out to read the codes which indicated water in fuel and air flow meter issue. Drained and fitted new filter, new air flow meter, no change. He said all waveforms are ok,fuel pressure etc., I have replaced cam sensor as well. This van has been stood a few months now as we bought another master same year 2008, which has now failed due to head gasket issue. So took this opportunity knowing I have a supply of known working parts to try! I replaced the common rail, and fuel pump ,egr valve, crank position sensor, still no change, so I went for the ecu as a 3 part swap over ie- ecu, key and transponder,and the uch unit. Although the vans are both 2008 models I was unable to try out this last option as the uch units were different ie one a 2 port the other a 3 port! So before I obtain a ecu kit, can anyone help me out ? By the way it will run on easy start which suggests cam timing ok.

04 megane battery being drained in a few hours

Iv recently bought a megane 2004 1.5 Dci 80bhp 5dr
Hi Iv just bought a megane 1.5 dci 80bhp 5 door it's not been used for a while so I fully charged a good battery then fitted it when I collected the car an I then drove 65 miles on the motorway without problem but on the last 5 mins drive it lost the electrical power steering and all electrics were very week, when I got home I turned it off and tried to re start but the battery was totally flat, I put a charged battery on and everything was perfect again ! I used it for a few hours the next day until the power steering stopped working as did the radio and other electrical items but as I was close to home I got back an swapped to a fully charged battery and that solved all problems ?
Iv had the alternator and battery checked out an there ok so I don't know where to try next ? The only other thing I noticed is when I turn the engine off it says steering not locked but don't know if this is a seperate problem ? I'm desperate for help as Iv been off work for nearly 2 weeks due to someone driving into me an now it looks like I may have to take more time off

Master 08 washer motor replacment

Hi guys, I did a search but didn't come up with anything. I'm 99% sure the motor has gone on the windscreen washer. It isn't working and I checked and there is a 12v reaching it when switch is applied in the cab. The washer bottle looks like it's a bitch to get out. Does anyone know if you can buy a motor separately or is it a complete item with the bottle? If so a part number would be awesome! Also does anyone have a link for a workshop manual for the 08 Master? Could come in handy on the best way to get it out. MOT is due in a week and so it's chosen the worst moment to pack up.

Cheers

I refused to believe my road worker father was stealing from his job, but when I got home, all the signs were there.


did you hear about the pizza delivery man who was found dead in his car covered in olives, peppers and ground beef.
The police think he topped himself.


Last night my wife sent me a text, saying she was in Casualty.
When I got home I watched all 50 minutes of it, never saw her once, the lying sod. She still hasn't come home yet. I'm starving.

help!!! MPG calculator

Hi,
I have an 03 plate, 1.4 petrol, Scenic.
(appologies if this is posted in the wrong section)
Yesterday, for the first time ever, the car didn't start first time, it thought about it & then cut out. Second time it started with a bit of rev and was then fine. I drove it round for a bit then parked it up until this morning.
So I started it up today, just to make sure it was OK and it started first time, however, I noticed that, whilst stationary, the MPG calculator and the 'miles to refueling' (?) calculator were both counting down like a clock (the fuel tank is 3/4 full).
I drove around for a bit and both calculators started counting up, but began counting down again every time I stopped at traffic lights.
I know NOTHING about cars, so my questions really are;
Is this a major problem?
Would the counting down be connected to the poor starting?
If the calculators count down to zero, would the engine cut out?
Thanks from a newbie....

Engine flush opinion's ?

seen this issue come up on other forums before and i have heard a lot of people hum and ar about it so as i have searched on here and it doesn't seem to have been mentioned or discussed yet thought i would start a thread up.

is it a good idea to do an engine flush ?

My opinion YES but only if the service history is a little bleak as you just don't know if the engine is all gummed up in there due to lack of oil change.I have heard people say many times it wrecks the engine ? i don't believe that.I believe it just highlights problems with your engine prior to engine flush which other wise wouldn't have been found and probably would rear its ugly head at some point or another in the future.

so there you go that is my opinion what is yours is it a good idea to do an engine flush ? yes/no ? and why ?

ps: sorry if there is mistakes with my grammar i struggle with a reading and spelling condition.

How to use TDC tool

Hello everyone, got a question hope somebody knows answer to. Sorry its long.

Car is Megane II 1.9dci 130bhp 2005 facelift F9Q engine.

Ok, so last xmas went out to a show, moved the car after as was meeting friends and when came out realised there had been a really bad cold snap.
On way home later didnt notice at first but after couple of miles thought car bit noisy and realised loud knocking. Have another car so only just got round to looking at this one. Unsure if big ends or if its jumped a tooth on cambelt (overdue change), so first job check the timing. Read all the threads and got a TDC pin (with the screw thread).

My question is, is there more than one position in can go in?
Only place it seems to be able to screw in all way seems to be incorrect as cant turn engine without it hitting (presumably a valve) somewhere after about 90 degrees of the crank. Read online somewhere that the mark on end of crank is at approx 7 'o'clock when TDC. Confirmed this by using thin screwdriver in glowplug hole to find TDC and it seems to be correct, however the TDC tool wont go in as far as the thread in this position. With this setting (7 oclock) and cam sprocket on its mark, can turn engine fully.
To get the pin screwed in crank has to go till marker is about 8 oclock. http://ift.tt/1I4eZ1C If I then re-align cam sprocket to its mark, engine wont turn more than about 80 degrees before hitting something and locking solid.

Any ideas?? Any one used TDC tool to set and can remember position of the marker? I'm fairly sure it must be the 7 oclock position as thats where number 1 & 4 are TDC using a rising marker, but why wont it go in here?
Looking at drawings in all the guides it looks like it sits under a flat spot on the crank rather than going into a hole, and that appears correct as there is a bit of movement in the crank rotation until its screwed all the way home.
I've done the start just before cam marker, move crank tiny bit at time pushing TDC tool in and out, and cant find another position for it, so what am I doing wrong? The only way to get it to miss valves would mean with the tool all way in the marker on the cam would be incorrect for TDC.

All suggestion gratefully accepted!!

scenic II 1.9dci black smoke/ lack of power

I've just bought a very cheap 55 plate scenic, the seller told me it needs a turbo. It drove home with no problem other than lots of black smoke and a lack of power... The smoke smells like the cars being very over fueled rather than burning oil. I've only had a very quick look at the car but diagnostics are showing nothing other than fuel temp at -40, can anyone tell me where the sensor is ? I'm thinking once thats been changed next things to look at would be egr valve, air flow sensor etc? Has anyone changed a turbo btw (how fiddly a job is it ?)
Thanks in advance :)

renault fluence 1.6 16 valve clutch kit failure of

It's JLawyer- the mileage on my vehicle is only 52800 km and this is the 3rd clutch failure I've had.. the first total failure was at 18000km and second one was at 29000km and now once again. Renault SA failed to entertain any of my claims under warranty.

I am extremely frustrated and feel like torching the vehicle outside the dealership where I bought it but when the car is running well it's a beautiful and exceptionally comfortable car to drive.

Bottom line I'm not prepared to spend another R9000.00 for the dealership to replace it. Can anyone assist with who manufactures the O.E clutch or a very decent OEM replacement and their relevant parts numbers

Thanks

Megane 2.0 IDE F5R Head bolts

Hi

Local garage had my megane for a week now with a failed cambelt. I authorised them to take the head off for an inspection to decide what next. Two of the torx bolt heads have been rounded off by their mechanic(s) during the process and the head still is not off. They are trying to blame me, saying its not their fault, the bolts are old & the engine is a replacement etc etc. Fact is, the engine was replaced, as a fully factory constructed original, 5 years ago from a scrap vehicle. The head from this engine has never been removed to the best of my knowledge.
Any advice on how to proceed would be gladly received.
a) Can I sue them for incompetence ?
b) What is the recommended procedure to remove these torx bolts ? Impact spanner or similar ? Should they have used ?
c) Now they are rounded off.....whats the best way forward ?

Thanks all

Renault Master 2.2 2001, cuts out under load

Please help, am tearing my hair out and have spent a fortune. Van starts and runs beautifully without problems, but when under load in 4th or 5th, cuts out above 1/2 throttle. No loss of power or spluttering, it's just as if you have switched off the ignition. All I have to do to start it again is flick the ignition key off/on; don't need to depress the clutch or stop, and it runs well again. The EGR valve and cat have been changed, the pressure system checked, fuel filter and MProp changed, accelerator position sensor changed, but fault still present. Diagnostic shows fault codes DF030 heater plug circuit, and DF049 Fuel pressure info. Before I spend yet more money, can anyone give me a definitive answer ?

2010 Megane World Series Editon - Bluetooth/Microphone Fault

Hi,

Wondering if anyone can help me. Bought my car (Megane Coupe III - 2010 World Series Editon with TomTom) in September when I had in iPhone 5, could connect the phone & play music etc. all fine! Came to answer a call & nobody can hear me, same when calling out. Took it to a Renault garage near the docks in Liverpool & was told to aim my voice at the microphone (near the rear view mirror).. Though the guy was taking the p**s at first but he had no other answer.. Yep that surprisingly didn't work either!

Now I have an iPhone 6+ and still have the same issue. Does anybody know how to solve this as it's quite annoying when on long journeys...

Many thanks,

2001 (Y reg) clio cambelt k4j engine 1.4 16valve

Hi all.

I have a quick cambelt question.

My cambelt is due and would like to do the job myself although I'd like to know if using a locking kit necessary to complete the job. Is so (I'm assuming it is) where is the crank pin hole located and how do I get hold of the locking tool. also how long did it take to complete.

In addition if I decide to take it into a garage for it to be done how much should I be expect to pay, inc waterpump.

Thanks

2010 Clio Dynamique DCI Tom Tom radio and sat nav not working

Hi
Hoping for some help, my daughters stereo and nav have stopped working. Was working fine no issues, then next time she got in the car it did not power up, no screen or stereo, it did come back on for a few days then went off again. I have checked the usual things, fuses, connections, tried a different stereo and BCM (UCH). Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Erratic average fuel consumption display

Hi have a 2013 Megane CC 1.5 dci, on my old 2011 coupe model I have an instant fuel economy and average fuel economy display.On this model it just has average fuel economy on the display. But the odd thing is it acts like an instant display going up and quickly as I accelerate or back off. On my old model it would take time during the drive to alter the average fuel value.

So do anyone know if 1 is should have both displays instant and average or 2 does any one else have an average display that moves up and down very quickly

Would be appreciate any info or advise as i am puzzled

clio running problems

Hi guys im in some desperate need of some advice. ive had my clio for just over 2 weeks now, i only paid £300 for it and have since fitted a clutch. After fitting the clutch i drove the car 160 miles with no problems however the next day i tried wheelspinning the car out of a car park to show off, which failed badly ? The throttle pedal became unresponsive, the electrical warning light came on and the the car went into, what im guessing, its limp mode. The car revved upto 2k then down to 1k and so on. I parked the car up and left it for roughly 8 hours, started it and it drove fine.
It has happened 3 more times since then, all during heavy acceleration, however it fixed itself with a flick of the ignition. I think ive added a picture of the codes im getting if not ill edit the text in a minute. people in my workshop are saying its the TPS but its around £50 and wanted to check if anyone knew anymore before i went ahead and wasted £50. Thanks in advance for any replies

Clio rear suspension bolt

Having to replace my oem exhaust system as it's blowing badly. Couldn't get it off, tried to saw it off but only got about half way before I couldn't due to space limitations so I've undone one rear axe/shock bolt & the others came off a bit but now just rounding off. Any idea how I could get it off? 18mm socket has some play when on it & keeps coming off which in turn means some cursing & sore knuckles :rant: a 17mm is too small & I've tried a shifting spanner to get it freed up but again. I such luck. Any suggestions on how to remove & where could I but a replacement bolt that's the same as the one one currently stuck on? Thanks in advance :)

scenic 2 lumpy on tickover when cold any ideas?

Hi I have a 2003 1.5 dci scenic 2 every morning I start it it starts first time every time but does run a little lumpy like its missing but when it warms up its fine and I am still getting over 50 MPG round town.
so I looked under the bonnet and saw air in the fuel lines up by the primer and in the pipes running back the the fuel filter. So I changed the filter just in case and its still the same, I shook the filter and checked for metal particles but couldn't see nothing but my eyes aint that good anyway lol. would this be a injector fault and would a leak off test show the fault as somewhere is sucking in air.

thanks

Can anyone help please

I have bought an 03 megane as I drove it home the service light was on and other lights which I didn't fully understsand until I googled it.
I have discovered by using this site that it is my airbag light I also have the clicking noise from the steering wheel so I'm assuming its the clock spring or rotory switch.
I have spent every penny I had on this car so my question is, until I can afford to have this repaired what exactly will happen if this coil snaps completely whilst driving. The MOT is due next month August so will have to be done soon I just want to know if I'm ok to drive it.
Thankyou Carol x

Scenic II constantly stalling when cold, out of ideas!

Hi all,

I've been having the following issues with our 2004 Scenic II or the past few days:

- When it began, the car failed to start one morning - just turned over with no firing whatsoever. After a couple of attempts it started ok. I believe my wife tried again that afternoon and had problems then, but since that first day it appears to start normally;

- Ever since then, when cold, the engine will idle for a few seconds before cutting out. Car starts normally after that, will idle for a few more seconds, then cut out again. It will cut out when trying to drive at low revs (reversing for example).

- If I try to hold the revs steady at 1500-2000 rpm, the engine speed will fluctuate massively between say 800-1500 rpm, almost like I'm revving the engine. It's impossible to hold the revs steady at this engine speed. Above 2000rpm it appears to run ok. There is generally a strong smell of petrol when doing this.

- When driving at lower speeds, say 30mph in 4th/5th, the car feels like it's misfiring (very "jerky") unless I accelerate.

Following advice on the internet and these forums, I've done the following:

- Replaced the camshaft position sensor
- Replaced the crankshaft/TDC position sensor
- Replaced all 4 spark plugs
- Replaced all 4 coil packs
- Cleaned the throttle body
- Removed & cleaned the MAP sensor

Nothing has made any difference to the original problem.

I had the exact same issue just over a year ago too, and I'm pretty sure the problem was related to a post-service loose spark plug (from a main dealer too!) and/or faulty coil, but I can't remember for sure - I did buy a replacement TDC sensor at the time but the problem was go before I got round to fitting it, so it's possible that the issue rectified itself before I got round to fitting it.

Sorry for the massive long 1st post. Hope someone can shed some light on what to try next! Since the car is now worth practically nothing I'm not planning to take it to a garage.

04 Scenic Cam Belt Change Labour Estimate

Recently my 2004 Scenic began to exhibit a slight knock or rattling sound. The mechanic diagnosed it as a tensioner failure, but it was time for the cam belt to be changed as well. He has quoted a total of 4 labour hours to install the cam belt kit as well as a new water pump. Can anyone tell me if that is a reasonable labour estimate for the work? I would appreciate any assistance from those with more knowledge of the process. Thank you.

Leaking pipe in the engine!

So we just got a second hand Renault scenic 1.4 and I didn't notice till we got home and started to mess with all the features that something started to leak from the engine and after some investigation I found there was a pipe that has cuts in it, what I am trying to figure out is what the pipe is and what sort of price I am expecting to pay or can i do this myself?

The pipe in question is in the picture and is on the right side of the engine.

Loss of power/smell of diesel

Hi Ours is a 2001 scenic Monaco 1.9dCi which we have had for seven years. 109,000 on the clock. Always been as good as gold. Cam belt changed on schedule.

About 18 months ago off road for 5 months. On restarting noticed a smell of diesel exhaust and on return from trips, never had this before BUT also seemed to be loss of power on hill and sometimes when accelerating.

Sometimes this seems fine at others bad. Had the sensor in the air mass meter changed but after initial improvement back to square one.

Diagnostics show one pre heater faulty and possibly the control unit. The warning light used to come on occasionally but not for some time. I am told this is not the problem with the power loss? The car starts perfectly in the cold.

Other people have suggested it is the injectors? I can see no diesel leaks.

So any ideas. This car is no where near as sprightly as it used to be, the smell is annoying and I expect indicates un-burned diesel ; I am beginning to despair.

Adrian

confused by glow plug light

hey again yet another problem haha. recently for two days when going up hill or in 2nd and 3rd gear. it is like the scenic is sluggish until it hits 3000 revs then it will pull away. more so on regular occasions this light keeps coming on then going off. now i am not sure if it is the glow plugs but don't they go off when the engine is warm ?never had a diesel before so i am not very clued up on them but due to my research that is what i have read.

Espace IV 2.0T 2005 wipers stop while driving

3 times now the front wipers have stopped while driving with both arms verticle, this is apparantly a position for replacing the blades.
wipers have been on low speed each time.
Everything else with the wipers functions normally including intermittent. ...except for the HP headlight washer pump which dosn't work
The problem can be solved by: turn off wipers, transmission in Park, stop engine, lock car, unlock car, restart engine. The wipers go down to normal parking position when the engine is started.

Can this problem be in the wiper motor?
A cover under the motor assembly is attached with clips. Is it worth spraying under there with CRC 2.26?

1st. action is to lubricate all the linkages, they look a bit dry. Maybe there is a bit too much friction. Photo is copied from internett

Scenic 2006 key card not working intermittently

Both my key cards work most of the time, but often only after two or three presses. Occasionally they don't work at all and I have to use the emergency key to get in the car. Both key cards have new batteries and all electrics/electronics on the car otherwise work fine. The car battery is also fairly new.
Is it a problem with the key cards or something in the car itself. I'd appreciate any suggestions for things to try before I start running up garage bills.

Swap twingo GT headunit for twingo rs line

The headunit in my twingo sucks. It's the update list with the integrated screen, which means its only capable of CD and FM. I tried to add an aux cord as it has the aux socket at the back, but it doesn't work :(

I was wondering if it was possible to swap it out for a Bluetooth head unit form a twingo rs. It has all the stuff i want: bluetooth, aux and hands free plus it would still look relatively stick.
Does anyone know how different is the wiring? Is this swap at all possible?

P.S - I don't want an aftermarket head unit as they don't match my beige interior. If you know of something that would fit please let me know.

Any tips on removing heater control panel?

Hi guys,

Recently bought a Clio, in really good nick for the age apart from the heater control panel being all scratched up and looks terrible, so I bought a replacement.

Looked in the Haynes manual and read online about how to remove the scratched one, so today got the radio and everything out, screws off the heater control panel and... cannot for the life of me get the heater controls out of the dash!

Does anyone have any tips on how to get it out (and how to get the new one in without scratching that to hell too!) I'm probably missing something really obvious.

Cheers

Reverse sensors and light not working

Hi, new to the forum.

I have a Laguna Mk II 2007 and my reverse sensors worked intermittently before. Now it has stopped working completely including the reverse light.

When I put it in reverse gear, it beeps before the gear stick is fully in and the reverse lights come on. However when the gear stick is fully in and gear engaged the reverse light goes off. The sensors do not work at all now whatever the position.

Can anyone give me advice?

All tyred out - alloys driving me nuts

Hi All

Well after a great year with my (new to me) Renault Megane (60 plate) the problems have begun :mad:

I have been having issues with my 17" Dunlop n/s/f tyre deflating. I had the tyre and valve checked at not 1 or 2 but 3 garages and all advised the tyre was free of punctures and no bubbles appeared from the valve. The last garage said the air may be escaping through the alloy.

I have since bought a new official Renault alloy from the dealership and the problem is just the same. :crying:

Tonight the tyre was down at about 20 psi from 36 so I estimate the loss to be about 5psi/24 hours. I put some soapy water round the rim and on the valve and no real obvious bubbles appeared.

Has anyone got any ideas or is it back to the drawing board - again checking for possible punctures over the past few days etc?

Many thanks in advance

James

Kangoo II (61 plate) - Suspension options?

I've owned my late 2011 Kangoo II since the start of November last year and have been tidying it up ever since. I recently upgraded from the 15" steel wheels with 195/65/R15 tyres to 16" alloys and 205/55/R16 tyres. The next thing I'd like to do is address the "boatiness" of the suspension by stiffening it up and also dropping it slightly, no more than 25-30mm to fit the wheels and tyres in the arches better.

I have had very little luck with finding bolt on parts to do this. It seems that coilover kits and lowering springs exist for the MK1 Kangoo but not the MKII. Searching for Scenic parts (which the Kangoo is derived from) has also been a bust. Does anyone know if it's possible to lower and stiffen up the MKII Kangoo and if so, how? If it comes to it, I'm prepared to have a custom set of coilovers made for the front and lowering springs/shocks for the rear. Thanks in advance.

Hello

I have a few electrical related questions regarding my recently acquired Clio which is a 1.4 16v 2007 plate.

2 fan position 4 does nothing. 1-3 are blowing but 4 is doing nothing. Any idea what might cause this and how to fix?

MK1 Clio speedo sensor

My speedo has stopped working so I am guessing the sensor is faulty. I have a new one and am wondering if changing it is something the average person can do, or is it a garage job? I've had a look with it on a ramp and it seems to be on the back end of the gearbox.

I can't find any info on replacing these on here or elsewhere really so I was wondering if anyone has any experience/knowledge of this and how straightforward it is or isn't.

Thanks

Ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, surely i can't look that old?

Well ...... You'll love this one!




My name is wendy mullen and i was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist.

I noticed his dental diploma,which bore his full name.

Suddenly, i remembered a tall, handsome, dark haired boy with the same name had been in my secondary school class some 40-odd years ago.

Could he be the same guy that i had a secret crush on, way back then?

Upon seeing him, however, i quickly discarded any such thought.

This balding, grey haired man with the deeply lined face was far too old to have been my classmate.

After he examined my teeth, i asked him if he had attended underdale secondary school .

'yes, yes i did. He beamed with pride.

'when did you leave to go to college?' i asked

he answered, in 1965. Why do you ask?

'you were in my class!' i exclaimed.

He looked at me closely.

Crankshaft Pulley Change Laguna 2.2dci auto

Hello Everyone,

I'm just about to attempt a pulley change on my Laguna 2.2 dci Automatic. I'm in France at the moment and have just waited a week for a pulley and an E18 socket for the bolt.

I have read Laguna Bob's post and I understand all the advice in order to get the pulley bolt to budge.

However, how can I.......Please....

1. Temporarily disable the ignition, in order that I can crank the car, without ignition to unlock the bolt?

2. Lock the crank/ring gear when I re-torque it up again, bearing in mind it's an automatic.

All help gratefully received.

Rain/light sensor

Hi

I recently brought a 54 plate Renault Megane. I have the auto light and auto wipers fault message and on further examination it appears that the windscreen may have been changed in past. As you can see from the picture I have the wiring which was tucked into the headlining. I took it to the dealer and they say I need a new windscreen which is compatible with the sensor. I would like to know is there anyway of retrofitting the sensor to my current windscreen.

Any help would be gladly appreciated.

Intermittant power loss Laguna 1.9Dci

Hi Guys

Every now and again my 02 Guna 1.9Dci will loss power! I.e. when accelerating at say a junction it will rev up to about 2200 RPM and stay there despite the accelerator on the floor-no error lights on dash. Lift off and everything is back to normal. This only happened once in a blue moon, but now seems to be occuring more often. Last time nearly had another car in the boot!!! Hence may need to look into this problem.

Megane short on power

Hi I have just bought a Renault Megane 52 plate 1.5 dynamiqe for cheap I am a little short for money. I have had a number of issues since owning the this car for one week.

first was the battery this would not hold charge after I replaced this I had problems with the key card not being detected when it did start white smoke poured out and check injection message appeared. The smoke would only come out once started also engine started to sound like in was hollow (hard to explain).

then on Sunday night driving home I lost all power and car shut down I lifted the bonnet to find that the lead to battery had slipped of must not of tighten enough

the car will not start at all now its firing up but engine does not seem to fire

as I know next to nothing about cars could any one shine a light on this as I m really worried



I have only had the car a week and the garage I bought from dragging there heels as was a cheap car

my problem is that the bloody thing wont start and as been nothing but a disaster since I bought it first was the battery that would not hold its charge after replacing this I then had issue with the key card not being detected.

I then struggled to start this when bin stood overnight or when I was at work bellowing out white smoke when I eventauly got the damn thing started. Then came the check injector message which came on when started , after all that when driving home I lost all power electrics engine the lot. I lifted bonnet to find the battery positive lead had jumped of the battery this I must admit was my own fault did not tighten the bolt enough.
Now it wont start at all and the starter motor fire but no reponse from engine.

I have bought a complete and utter crap wagon or is there anychance this can be fixed bearing in mind I have jack all money

Multiple electronic faults on my 2005 Megane 2 Expression 1.6 A/T

Good day .

My Renault Megane 2 Expression 1.6 A/T would not start two days ago. When i put the card in, put my foot on the clush it wouldn't start . It just had the "cranking" sound and wouldn't start at all. The lights, radio, dashboard still worked though ! What could be the problem? Please help! When it decided to start and after driving it for a bit, it would turn off every time it was idle.
Yesterday i couldn't open the car from outside no matter how much i tried unlocking it using the card.
The airbag and service lights are both constantly on.

Gears or clutch?

Hi guys. Thanks for taking the time to read this. I have looked on the forum and found similar problems but with as much info as I can give, hopefully you may be able to advise me what could be wrong.

It started a while back now, couple of months, when changing gears, usually from say 3rd to 2nd or 5th to 3rd for a block change. Anyway, not all the time but they would crunch. If i were at traffic lights, car in neutral and then i got to put into 1st to pull off, crunch again. But this was only intermittent. Now last week i pulled up outside my house, reversed in my usual space and the gear would not come out of reverse, and even with the clutch pedal down, it was still trying to move. Turned off the car and kinda forced it out of reverse, everything was fine for a week or so.
Then every time I put the clutch pedal down, it makes a noise like a fan belt slipping but louder. and i can no longer get it into gear,but then if i turn off the engine, it pops into gear no probs at all.

I noticed a knocking too from the underneath of the car, so jacked it up and had a look. There seems to be either a gear linkage or clutch bar or something, that looks like its loose. at the end of it is a rubber like housing that it quite greasy. inside that is a spring like thing, which is also loose, could this be the issue? Many thanks in advance
