Serv, ABS, ESP, Oil and stop light all on?

Lewis1234 · Apr 7, 2017

Serv, ABS, ESP, Oil and stop light all on. I have an appointment to get new tyres fitted tomorrow, is it safe to drive? It is about 20 miles there and back. The car is booked into the garage for Wednesday. I have checked oil level and it is fine.

Car recently came back from the garage, and now I got this

Does anyone have any idea what I can do in the mean time, to diagnose some of the problems my self? Or should I avoid driving the car completely till Wednesday, when I have to take it to the garage?

Timing belt and tensioners, New alternator and belt, replaced N/S/F coil spring, O/S/R Wheel bearing, wipers, number plate light, ABS ecu/pump unit, Replaced throttle body and new brake fluid. Cost me £1,200 with labour/parts and MOT.

Quite poss an ABS fault is causing the abs/esp fault . Can still drive with that one on .
I'd be more concerned with the oil / stop lamp on .
If it's on all the time and doesn't go off . Don't drive it as it could be oil pressure related. But then again it could be something as silly as the oil pressure switch has stuck .

I had all those lights come on just before my alternator packed up. That's quite a comprehensive list of things you've had done , and costly . You're probably going to have to take it to a specialist Renault garage for them to check it out .

It comes on 30 secs or so after the car is running, then does not go out. I haven't driven the car anymore than 20mins of the light being on. As I had to get home. Not driving it again, will probably get the garage to pick it up. Better safe than sorry.

If the garage I use can't fix it, then next will be a Renault garage. Just so expensive. Feels like they are almost 2x the price.

I don't know if there are any Renault Specialists near to you ? If you take it to a Renault dealership don't bank on them finding the fault first time or ever plus they'll ass rape you for cost .

do all the lights come on at the same time? does the shift light come on at all?

The Serv, ABS, ESP lights are or 24/7 never go off. The oil and stop light come on 30 secs or so after the car has been started, and stay on. I tried turning the car off and on, some times the oil and stop light went out, then came on 30secs later, and other times just stayed on. Shift light not on. I do have a cheap ebay OBD reader, but comes back with zero faults. So guess I need proper Renault one.

There is, just stayed far away. As I have heard about the ridiculous over pricing.
