1997 Renault Laguna RT review from UK and Ireland
"Comfortable Drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The heater matrix pipe had a crack, also the bleed valve was to be missing!
Airbag light won't switch off on the dashboard.
The smell of petrol was everywhere in the car if you drove with your window wound down. This was coming from the boot of the car, where the fuel pump is.
SERV light was flashing on the dashboard, looked in the hand book regarding this error, to find I must contact a Renault dealer immediately. Later on I disconnected the battery then connected it again, this solved the problem.
General comments?
Very comfortable drive. The car handles well on fast country roads, the horse power is definitely there when overtaking cars.
It's a bit sluggish on startup, but once the car is running, it's a very comfortable ride and always starts first time.
This car is a bargain for what I paid for it, only small niggles here and there. Overall I'm delighted with the car.
