2010 grand scenic reverse light fault

I have had an issue with the reverse light, reverse parking sensors and rear wiper not working when the reverse gear is selected since February. I have checked all fuses and replaced the reverse switch but still no reverse light etc. I have also checked the bulb. Any help would be appreciated to fix this as I haven't got a clue what else to try.

Groaning noise front axle Espace IV

2007 2.0 dCi Grand Espace, 130k miles.

I managed to change the anti roll bar bushes without completely removing the subframe - it's possible to drop the rear of the subframe by disconnecting the side bracket mountings (18mm bolt accessed in wheelarch) and rear mountings (big bolt plus 2x smaller bolts for reinforcement plate).

This drops the rear of the subframe JUST enough to access the anti roll bar bracket bolts - I was able to swap out the old rubbers and slide in some new ones, with the help of some grease.

BUT now when I drive the car I get a groaning noise, like a creaking, coming somewhere from front axle, and can be felt through steering. (NB I changed drop links at the same time so they're new).

I don't think it's a co-incidence that it happened after I dropped the subframe... what have I broken, any ideas??!! :surprise:

Suddenly no start up, Boardelectronic broken

Hi Guys,
Im from Germany, but i can not find any Solution.
I need your help.
Tuesday it did normally start up, drove to work later back.
On the next day it didnt start. It wasnt cranking at all.
Display says Board Electric broken.

I checked all fuses in the box next to the battery. I did charge the Battery, i tried jump start. I did check the 3 Fuses on the Battery ( all give full V current throw it ) . I cleaned all Contacts. I checked the connectors to the device behind the battery.
I dont get a connection with my OBD2 somehow.
I dont know what to do.

Best regards

Espace IV and Trafic common parts

Looks to me like lots of Espace IV and Trafic parts may be compatible, although they are listed under different part numbers. Eg rear shocks look the same mounting points (obviously specs will be different for a van v people carrier).

Does anyone know if they're transferable? Trafic rear shocks listed a lot cheaper than Espace ones...!

Megane RS -2011 weird turbo noise

Hi!

Having a strange noise inside the cabin when the turbo starts to spool on a Megan RS 2.0 T-2011 , it sounds like the defroster suddenly begins to blow. It does not sound metallic like the turbo begins to brake, but more like "woooosshh ..." like some air leak noise, which ends immediately after you've stopped accelerating. The car does not feel powerless when the sound comes and pulls well anyway. When driving gently no strange sound appear. And no engine light is on.

Some tips on what it can be? One shop has looked at it and couldn't find anything wrong....
I think it must be a boost leak or something, but where since it not seem to affect performance.... Or can the turbo starting to give up?!

Thanks in advance!
