New CC owner from Newcastle
Posted: Wed May 08, 2019 11:17 pm
Hi, I bought a 2006 1.6 CC around 2 weeks ago and have been reading a lot of posts on this forum so decided to join and say hello....
I got the car very cheap in my opinion as it had a few 'problems', I consider myself to be quite handy when it comes to cars but this is my first Renault I've owned in 25 years of driving.
Apologies if I am posting about the faults in the wrong place, I am a bit stumped with a couple of them though...
1) The bootlid seems to lift up about a quarter of an inch when shut, at first I thought this was normal as it has to tilt the opposite way to allow the roof to fold but now I'm not sure?
2) I have the door open warning light on constantly, after reading on here I disconnected both doors one at a time. When the drivers door was unplugged the light went out so I purchased a latch/lock mechanism (with both cables attached) from a breakers yard. Is it difficult to fit? Also the picture of the car on the display shows 4 doors, is this normal?
Thanks in advance for any guidance
