"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.

Depending on how long you had your battery disconnected you may of reset the ecu, and so the light disapiered, this works on almost every petrol car, leave the battery off for about 15min and leave a door open or something to drain out the current, and when your reconnect the ecu has lost it's memory settings and has to re-learn them again.

My seat (the drivers) was broken, so I paid £30 for one off a scrap car. I also had the same problem with the airbag light staying on. I had it reset for £30..
