known to us : water ingress (various electrical issues), failed ignition coils, failed engine sensors (cam and TDC), failed camshaft dephaser pully, failed suspension parts (top suspension mounts), keycards are not robust.

Admitted by Renault: None :-)

The problem ive found with 55 numberplates is that they tend to be a little to reflective, and they fill up the space on the number plate a little too much.















Sorry, couldn't help it.

in our german board there are loads of cars from that time that have problems with leaking AC-systems. It took my service 5 visits to get it fixed....in the end it turned out that one of the tubes leading into the condensor had rotted away and in addition that the switch on the dashboard (manual AC) was faulty in warm temperatuires....
