2002 Renault Laguna Authentique review from Australia and New Zealand
"Back to the drawing board"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Excessive wear of tyres.
Automatic transmission valve body replaced.
High tension coils replaced twice due to misfiring.
Driver window does not close properly.
Body trim discolored.
Interior rattles.
Faulty remote control (2x)
General comments?
Auto transmission is indecisive. Never seems to pick the right gear ratio.
Engine must be revved high to have good performance, which is a little odd for a 3.0L.
Drives really nicely.
If it wasn't for all the technical problems I even like it!
