RENAULT DCI with turbo/engine problems I AM NOT ALONE!!
in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers
Posted
All this usefull, but depressing information sounds familiar. I have the 53 plate 1.5 scenic and its started to smoke and use far too much oil. I have just spent £450 having a new cam belt and service from a local (independant) work shop. (they have done plenty of work for me in the past and it has always been to a high quality and a resonable price.) but it looks like the turbo is going and it seems the cost of replacement is around the value of the car. When I bought the car it was a repo but had been serviced by a Renault dealer. I bought the diesel because I thought that Renaults diesel cars had a good reputation, but is it just the DCI ones that are poor? There were a number of issues with it including the digital dash having to be replaced (sound familier?) The electrics stink, I have had both front electric windows operating system go, which have cost me £300. How does Renault stay in business with such poor quality cars and shocking dealerships? I guess I will just have to run it till the turbo goes then dump it. I only do low mileage so I might get a few more months out of it. Just keep topping it up with oil eh. NO MORE RENAULT CRAP.
