Passenger door hinge+squealing brakes need your help!!!

Postby Hany Saad » Fri Jul 06, 2007 11:06 am

Hello all,

My car is only 1 year old with 10,000 Km on the odometer,I am going next Sunday for the 10000 regular service,the hinge on the passenger door starts clinging and I heard about changing the hinge eliminates the problem as I tried greasing with no success,also the brakes are squealing at complete stop ,when I brake in the reverse direction and then forward (heard it cleans the pads) it stops for some time and then back again,I heard there is a solution from Renault including changing the whole brake calipers,should I stick to it and to changing the door hinge as Iam still under warranty or the dealer will try to fob off as this is the first time to report those problems so he will try cleaning and greasing first.

any help will be highly appreciated.

Have a read of this regarding your door hinge

As for your brakes, the fix should be done under warranty. Don't be fobbed off
