Trafic suddenly died. No electrics

Trafic suddenly died. No electrics

So I'm driving along everything is fine then suddenly with no warnings the engine just cuts out, the lights go off, the dash goes off. Everything stops.

Only things that work are the hazard warning lights, the remote door locks, and there is a flashing red light on dash. Everything else is dead.

AA guy came out and didn't know what it was. Recovered me back home.

What could the problem be ?

Megane throttle issue

Megane throttle issue


Hi I have a Megane coupe 2010 and having problems with it randomly accelerating to the redline, the only option is turning off engine, it then returns to normal on the restart, anybody know what it could be, I'm guessing it's the throttle actuator?

Advise Needed.... Urgent

Advise Needed.... Urgent

Need some advice on what could be a life changing decision. Thanks in advance guys.

I've suspected for some time now that my girlfriend has been cheating on me. The usual signs - phone rings, I answer, someone hangs up. She started going out 'with the girls' a lot recently although when I ask which girls it is always "Just some friends from work, you don't know them". I always look out for her taxi coming home but she always walks down the drive although I can hear a car setting off. As if she has got out of the car round the corner. Why? Is it not a taxi? I once picked her mobile up just to see what time it was and she went berserk and screamed that I should never touch her phone again and why was I checking up on her.

Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my g/f. I think deep down I just didn't want to know the truth but last night she went out again and I decided to check on her. I decided I was going to hide behind my car which would give me a view of the whole street so I could see which car she gets out of. It was whilst crouched behind my car that I noticed rust around my rear wheel arch.

So, my question.....

Should I take it into a panel beater or should I buy some filler and try to repair it myself?

Laguna II wings

One of the wings on my LagWagon (in my sig) got paired with a wall in a partially successful attempt to avoid a n-f-g driveway puller outer on a narrow road. They are plastic and as such very flexible, there was significant damage to my suspension and wheel but all that I've repaired

(the guy didn't stop, naturally, and i didn't get a plate, the driveway wasn't his house it was a golf club so insurer wanted me to hemorrhage money, ironic that if i had slapped in to him there would be less cost involved to me)

Whats left is my rather sorry looking wing. Has anyone repaired one of these? the damage is certainly not structural but looks terrible, i know i can get a new wing but, y'know, paintings and the like.

indecently, that was also the day i bought a dashcam XD.

I've added a picture for reference but its terrible, sorry.

Renault,Master,2.2dci,2006,


New to this but here goes.
The van has been going fine with 260000 miles on the clock. Went into sainsburys filled up and drove to work.came out at 5.30 started 1st time as usual and drove about 2 miles the engine cut out. Stopped and restarted ok no warning lights and drove home 7 miles no problem. Next morning started fine drove 8 miles to work no problem but at 5.30 on the way home exactly the same cut out occurred just 0.5 mile earlier. Again restarted and drove 7 miles no problem. Being a vintage mechanic I was hoping a Renault expert may know the fault?.

Clio MK3 Indicator Problem

Hey everyone,

Having a strange one today. Indicators were all working fine on a trip out today however then on the trip back they weren't.

I drive a 2006 Renault Clio MK3 1.5 DCI Dynamique.

The left indicator is completely unworking, there's no light on the dash and the lights don't activate when I turn it on.
The right indicator is working completely fine.
The hazard lights also work fine, both indicators and dash lights working.

Seems very strange that the hazards are fine when the normal indicator isn't working.

Any advice or solutions would be great.

Husband Shopping

Husband Shopping


A store that sells new husbands has opened in Cardiff, where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:
You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs
She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.
'That's nice,' she thinks, 'but I want more.'
So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.
'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.
She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.
'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!'
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.
She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.
PLEASE NOTE:
To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives store just across the street.
The first floor has wives that love sex.
The second floor has wives that love sex and have money and like beer
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited.

Door replacement

Hi,

I have a 2005 Megane Oasis Expression.

I was involved in a road rage incident before xmas where the other driver has kicked my driver side rear passenger door beyond repair, so I have opted for the door to be replaced. He will be paying of course. I have got one delivered from the breakers but unfortunately I wasn't there to check the door and the door has a different coloured handle and trim. I think the door is from the Dynamique as opposed to the expression.

will this be a problem when swapping the doors? I was thinking of just changing the door handle and trim from the old door.

is this a standard Kangoo 1.5dci? 2004

Please help... Passenger car door won't close

Firstly this is my first post so I am sorry if this is the wrong category as I'm not sure which area it should come under.
I seem to have an intermittent fault with the passenger door on my 3 door Megane GT. firstly when I got the car, the central locking in the passenger door would not work, I would have to unlock it from the inside, that seem to fix itself, now I had an issue yesterday when I was out that when the passenger door was opened, it would not close again, like the mechanism wouldn't 'flick' back over, it's not stuck in the locked position and won't work if I close it shut and lock it either.
I'm going to remove the door panel today to have a look and hope the answer is stating me in the face ha but hoping somebody on here can help me with a bit of advice first.
Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks

Study..

Study..

“Several years ago, Great Britain funded a study to determine why the head on a man's penis is larger than the shaft. The study took two years and cost over 1.2 million pounds. The study concluded that the reason the head of a man's penis is larger than the shaft is to provide the man with more pleasure during sex.

After the results were published, France decided to conduct their own study on the same subject. They were convinced that the results of the British study were incorrect. After three years of research at a cost of in excess of 2 million Euros, the French researchers concluded that the head of a man's penis is larger than the shaft to provide the woman with more pleasure during sex. When the results of the French study were released,

Australia decided to conduct their own study. The Aussies didn't really trust British or French studies.

So, after nearly three hours of intensive research and a cost of right around 75 dollars (three cases of beer), the Aussie study was complete. They concluded that the reason the head on a man's penis is larger than the shaft is to prevent your hand from flying off and hitting you in the forehead.”

Battery dying constantly Espace IV 3.5 v6

Having read up a few different opinions and many requests for help, it always turned out that no one posted what the solution actually turns out to be unless there is one somewhere that I missed.

Anyhow, if I lock my car, my battery dies, it seemed to last a few days or sometimes die over one night. Hence I found leaving it unlocked over night seemed to do the trick alas it turned out the same thing happens, it dies. However, lately after an easy booster cables start every time, it dies within hours now.

I am thinking it may well be the battery given what seems to be degradation over time. I have read it can be something to do with heaters for cold starts but my mechanic friend says he hasn't heard of them on petrol engines. I have also read about alternators having bad contacts at various points around the mech leading to a short that kills the battery.

I have also read about removing fuses one by one and testing the current usage. My mechanic friend will help me when I can get hold of him from his busy schedule.

Like many I can't afford to visit Renault, even for them to actually fix it in one go so I am hoping to pin point the most likely and maybe if I can, find if I can rule out anything for sure, before throwing money away.

Possibles so far

Battery

Stop warning light

Hello to All,

On two occasions now whilst driving the STOP warning light has come on, beeped and then disappeared as quick as it came on.

Today a friend ran a diagnostics test with the following result

DF025 - Preheating unit diagnostic connection
- Present
- Open Circuit.

Does anyone know what this means? He seems to think it could be my glow plugs as the car needs a little longer to start up these days.

Thanks

Saul.

Hi

1.9dti wont start

Hi I have tried searching the forum but have not found a match for the problem on my wife's 02 reg 1.9dti senic

The engine turns over as normal but wont fire when you turn ign on after a few seconds the heater plug light goes out as normal but instantly comes back on and stays on, i have checked as best i can that the diesel is getting to the injectors by loosening the pipe while engine is turning over .
Is it something to do with the heater plugs or is the light coming back on and staying on a red herring

I apologize if this has been posted before I have searched but had no luck in finding it

Many Thanks for taking the time to read this hopefully someone will have an answer for me

scenic rx4 1.9dci brake problems


Hi I have a 2003 rx4 1.9dci. I had problems with my rear n/s brake caliper locking on. If I reversed then pulled forward it would unlock but then got to the point were it was squealing like mad and vibrating alot. I had a new caliper on and then found out the rear diff was knackered.replaced that but still having problems with the brakes. It feels like the car is bein pulled back when I set off and when I brake and come to a stop the engine seems to be vibrating like it's being put under abit of pressure. Any ideas would be welcome as I'm at the end of my tether with it after spending nearly 350 quid on trying to get it right and it's not.

scenic 3 water leak front foot wells


hi
After all the rain we've had, got in the car and there was condensation on the windscreen. Immediately checked the foot wells and found water, both sides. usual suspect would be the drain pipes from the sunroof, but there isn't one. Door seals are as good as new.
Dried foot wells out, got the hose pipe out covered all seals and windscreen and no leak.
Only thing left for me to do is drive the car next time it rains see if anything happens then. Unless anyone has come across this and has a solution.
thanks

Afternoon,

My 2003 Megane 1.9 has been using alot of oil. I have just take the inter cooler pipe off and it's covered in oil. I'm guessing this is really bad?

I have attached some photo to show where oil is also appearing from.

Is this going to cost more then the 750 I paid for the car?

Serious Water Leak

Hi I am new to this forum so firstly would like to welcome myself. My names Michael, I am 23 years old and live in South Wales. I would like you to know that I have no knowledge whatsoever of car mechanics so please go gentle on me. I own a 2007 Clio Campus 1.2 and all has been well until now.

My car is completely flooded on the passenger side. Behind the seat is a pool of water around an inch deep and although it is not pooled up at the front of the car the carpet is still soaked through.

I have read various things about scuttle drains blocked, water in the skirt etc but I wouldn't be able to do any of this myself as I am completely useless at these things.

So I suppose my question is how can I find out the cause? Also I know this will probably need to be taken somewhere to be sorted so any idea on where would be best? Renault dealer, independent garage etc.And also on what cost I could be facing.

Thank you for reading this and any help will be greatly appreciated.

I noticed the pic attached, which is from the Megane

Thanks,

Sometimes I get "check injection " message ,of course limp mode..went to garage, they guessed it's blocked soot filter couse I was driving ir with dead turbo for 600km..... Also I can feel exhaust gases entering cabin , later found that point where exhaust is connected to turbo leaks . ....

Scenic II - Removing small child mirror and rear seat belt (removing headliner)

Hey guys,

For over a year my car suffers from a sagging headliner, which wasn't all that annoying until it recently reached a point where it touches my head when I drive - so I decided to take on the task of removing the headliner, killing out fabric and gluing new one on..

I started the task an hour ago and I removed everything I managed to remove (sun visors, lights and handles) but I absolutely fail removing the small child-mind mirror (I squeeze the 2 tabs but it won't come down!). I also have no idea how to remove the rear middle seat-belt which is attached to the headliner somehow..

Any awesome explanations (or pictures! videos! something!) would be eternally appreciated!!

Scenic II - Removing small child mirror and rear seat belt (removing headliner)

Laguna MK II - 2003 - 1.9 DCi - Won't Start - Is it the fuel pump...?

Hello,

The car is a MK II Laguna 2003 Diesel 1.9 DCi

The car had been driven during the day, in the evening I popped to the local shop (2 min drive) and when I went to go home it wouldn't start...
The dash lights up as normal when the key card is inserted. When you press the Start button it goes to turn over (rotates?) but never quite starts

We had it towed home and so far I have changed all 4 glow plugs; 3 were dead when we checked

I have also, in an effort to diagnose if it was the fuel filter or the pump, had the pipe from the fuel filter to the pump (in the engine bay) off and fed fuel directly in to the pump whilst trying to turn it over.. nothing

We also had everything connected as normal but a pipe from the pump fuel return in to a bottle; nothing passed in to the pipe when the engine was turned over

The fuel filter is due for a change but I'm hesitant to think its that given the lack of action on the fuel pump

We have even had the pipe from the fuel pump to the fuel rail undone whilst turning over and there was no fuel spurting from the pump...

This is the engine set up where there is no primer bulb and the filter/filter housing is one piece

Does this have an additional fuel pump along the route from the tank to the engine fuel pump that could be dead?

How can I confirm its the engine bay fuel pump?

Does anyone have any other troubleshooting or thoughts? I'm keen to not have to replace the pump as it looks a big/costly job

Thanks in advance
Sam

A few days ago a battery warning started flashing together with 'STOP' on the Dashboard. A friend suggested malfunction with the Alternator but after checking with a simple gadget and seeking second opinion, the Alternator appear to be fine otherwise the battery would have failed for lack of charge. Can someone help, please.

(2) On the same Laguna the passenger side wing mirror can not be adjusted from the nob on the driver's while I can adjust the driver side wing mirror. This never used be the case when I bought the 8 months ago. Can some shed some light on what could the problems as explained above.

Megane II 1.5 dci Sedan does not want to go

Hello,

Around a month ago, when I was waiting at the red light, I wanted to move when it changed for green however, I felt that the car did not want to move and it was rocking a lot. I was so surprised for a moment then I changed the gear for two and back to one and finally moved without a problem.

During that time I was listening to music in the car with a high volume and I told myself that maybe I pushed the gas too much and it was skidding or I put her to 3rd gear by mistake..

The same happened last week and finally this morning that she did not want to move and was shaking and I am scared now a little. I would say it was about the clutch but the I changed the disc 8 months ago around 7000 km before. It also came to my mind that transmission mounting might have a problem but as far as I know it will lead to rocking, it may not prevent the car to move.

I have made an appointment with the service but will be next week. Any ideas what might be the problem?

Leak coming through the head lining

Hi everyone,

I recently bought my first car and I got a Clio 1.2 '05 reg.

I've had it a couple of months and have noticed a leak coming through the headling.
It seems to be coming from a seal somewhere on the left handside where the pillar is for the windscreen. I thought it may be the sun roof as that is a common problem but the water which is seeping through isn't touching where the sun roof is and the the head lining all around the sunroof is bone dry. I'm really struggling to work out where it is actually coming from.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Thread Of The Week 01, January, 2016

Bristol Street Motors Service plans

Apologies, but I wasn't sure what sub forum to post this in.

HAs anyone actually signed up for the three year service plan from Bristol Street Motors (or Renault)? It would help to get some feedback and/or opinions on this since my dealership has been offering me this plan for approx £12 a month. They claim that everything including labour and parts are covered. They also mentioned that MOT can be included.

Thanks for any replies...

Dim xenon lights

Dim xenon lights


The lights on our phase 2 Laguna II were noticeably dim compared to other cars with normal halogen lights so I took them off and proceeded to cut the back off so that I could get the projector out along with the glass lens. I found that the nearside light had been replaced in 2009. On both lights the lens was filthy so I cleaned them. On the original light I found that the silver part of the reflector was no longer shinny on the upper side (possibly due to heat) which is the part that is reflected out of the projector. As there is nothing to be done about the loss of the reflective surface I decided to turn it up side down but with the shutter on the right way up. Doing all of this has made a huge difference to the light, not that I have driven the car at night yet to compare against others but the light looks much better and whiter than it did before. So if you are suffering form poor lighting is worth taking the lights off and cutting the back open to clean them, just make sure you seal it back on afterwards.

Just joined and have a question

Hello everyone

Been recommended to come and register here as you guys could help me.

Nice to meet you all

My mother has a Renault Megane convertible 2004 and it overheated the other night.

I have been to check on the car and there seems to be a rubber hose stopper type cap near the dipstick which has a hole in

Water just running out of the car... ***128557;

Can anyone tell me what that rubber stopper is and is it required to pressurise the cooling system

EGR removal cleaning need advice

I have a 2003 IV Espace 2.2 dci. I have been experiencing the dreaded loss of power syndrome and decided to clean my EGR valve. To do so I removed the silver aluminium pipe for ease of access and noticed that the bottom bolt on the front joint is much shorter than the other one and was only finger tight and it was very carbonised. Could this be part of the problem. Also the aluminium pipe although it has been blanked off has a hole in it and the previous owner simply covered it with a jubilee clip tightened, could this also be part of the problem. Please advise.

Grand Scenic 3 Front door check straps

Grand Scenic 3 Front door check straps


Hi, my Grand Scenic 3 front door check straps are on their way out. The passenger side creaks and clangs and the drivers side is starting.
Renault want over £100 a side for what looks quite a simple fix.
Can anyone advise if there is a repair/ way of reconditioning them, or a supplier of replacements, who doesn't want my left arm
Thanks in advance

Espace MK3 2.2 The Race- Alternator

I have a 2002 Renault Espace DCi (Diesel) model (WN51 CZU). I currently have an electrical fault warning message (heart beat symbol) followed by battery symbol. The car does start but the warning message is displayed and cuts out. I have carried out the following:

Battery replaced
MAF sensor replaced
ERG Valved cleaned (was blocked)
Water pump replaced
Crankshaft sensor replaced as was faulty
oil change
oil filter replaced

A mobile mechanic did check with fault diagnosis machine but no fault code displayed.

I think it could be the Alternator as the battery was replace only three weeks ago. I did notice that only one wire is going into the alternator (See picture).

Another thing is that the exhaust is white/blue as well.
Could that be the glow plugs.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks all

MAF
MAF

A mass airflow sensor is used to determine the mass of air entering the engine. The air mass information is necessary to calculate and deliver the correct fuel mass to the engine. Air is a gas, and its density changes as it expands and contracts with temperature and pressure. In automotive applications, air density varies with the vehicle's operating environment, and is an ideal application for a mass sensor. (See stoichiometric, ideal gas law, and density.) There are two common types of mass airflow sensors in usage on gasoline engines. They are the vane meter and the hot wire. Neither design employs technology that measures air mass directly. However, with an additional sensor or two, the engine's air mass flow rate can be accurately determined.

Both approaches are used almost exclusively on gasoline burning, EFI (electronic fuel injection) engines. Both sensor designs output a 0 - 5.0 volt signal that is proportional to the air mass flow rate, and both sensors have an IAT sensor (intake air temperature) incorporated into their housings.

When a MAF is used in conjunction with an exhaust gas oxygen sensor, the engine's air/fuel ratio can be controlled very accurately. The MAF sensor provides the open-loop predicted air flow information (the measured air flow) to the engine's ECU, and the EGO sensor provides closed-loop feedback in order to make minor corrections to the predicted air mass.
