2004 Renault Clio Dynamique review from UK and Ireland

One week before its first service (coincidentially 2 years and 10000 miles on the clock) the engine diagnostic light illuminated and the car would not start. I kept on trying to start the engine and finally after about 10 goes drove the car to the main dealer in emergency mode or whatever its called at 15 mph. They serviced the car and fixed the rattle in the sunroof, but when I went to collect it the engine would not start so I had to return a week later after the throttle, wiring loom and fuel management unit were changed.

Three days later I had to call the AA as it would not start and the diagnostic light was on again. The mechanic got the car to start and cleared the errors, but said a fault still existed so I returned the car to the main dealer again. They found nothing wrong, but changed the spark plugs anyway.

The following day I attempted to start the engine and the diagnostic light came on again. The engine started on the second attempt but sounded spluttery.

I have dropped the car back to the dealer again today.
