1999 Renault Laguna 1.9 dti review from UK and Ireland
"Nice car to drive, but terrible design fault on the drive belts"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
THE alternator tensioner failed, this caused the belt to snap. Taking the cam belt out as well!this caused lots of damage. About £900 to repair!
Annoying as I replaced the cam belt and tensioners only 2000miles ago.
General comments?
The car drives nice, quite comfy, but handling is a bit soft. Brakes are very strong.
