Thanks for the help. Tried turning the ignition key to the positions 3 times as you said, the light is still on though. Car idles normally, I have not done anything unusual, the light came on about an hour into my journey. Can any one else help please :confused:

I have a 3 month old 182, only driven 1900 miles so far. Today my Exhaust Gas Monitor warning light came on, it will not reset. The manual says I need to take it to the Renault clowns as soon as I can as the car may be emmitting toxic gases into the atmosphere!! Has any one else had this...

Its definately 12,000 miles mate

Hi every-one. Thank you all for your answers. Here is where I stand now. As I live in Inverness the next nearest Renault dealers is around 100miles away in Perth. I spoke to the VW dealership, Fiat, Arnold Clark, they all say that they can only give me an oral opinion but they will not give me a...

Called customer service, not much luck there, they just took a note of my complaint and put it on there system. Unfortunately the car is financed with RFS. A quick look at the contract says that if I cancel the agreement I will have to hand the car back and pay 50% of the financed amount!! Not...

The only problem I have is they wont admit there is a fault. The car still pulls to the right after having the tracking done twice! They keep giving me the same answer, its the camber on the roads. The last time I got the car back they had overinflated one of the rear tyres to 34PSI to...

First option I could trade my 182 in for the 6 month old 182 demonstrator which has the same spec as mine or I could trade in my 182 for a new one. He is going to give me figures tomorrow. What sort of discount should I ask for? Do you think the demonstrator would be a good idea? The...

Hi, my 182 is only 4 weeks old, done 960 miles and has been into the dealers 4 times for the same fault!. The director of the dealers gave me 2 options this afternoon: 1

Hi, my 182 is only one month old!! 1300 miles on the clock, been into NESS MOTORS INVERNESS 3 Times , pulling to the right. They told me that there was no fault after having the car for 3 days!!! Tyre pressures were as per the manual when I handed it in, 30 back 33 front, when I got it...

Hi, the handbook says 30 PSI for the rear tyres and 33 PSI for the front tyres. Is this correct as my car was in at the dealers as it was pulling to the right. I checked the pressures before the car went in and they were 30PSI rear, 33 PSI front. After they had the car for 3 days they told me...

Sorry thought you were commenting on my original post. Every one has detracted from my original post some how. No offence meant. Hope you understand, Tony

Suck ma swingers iceblue ya baw bag

Just been told that after having the car for 2 days they can find no fault!! Even although the salesman who sold me the car noticed the problem. They are now letting the dealers director drive it tomorrow, if he says its fine then they will give me the car back! Mmmmmm he wont be very biased...

My test drive was for 3 hours, just me and the girlfriend. Took the car along Loch Ness side which has some very winding roads then over to Aviemore, really pushed it, loved it so much I traded in my 2 year old 172 for one...

They are doing checks to see what is wrong ( again ), but I dont want a new steering rack or anything else fitted. I want them to admit it was faulty from the start and give me a replacement car. I have spoken to trading standards and they said I can cancel the agreement with them if I want to...

Had my black 182 with full cup pack for only 3 weeks. Its in the dealers for the 3rd time. This time Ive told them to keep it as the steering is at fault and the car is very unstable at lowish speeds ( 60mph ). The clutch also stinks when you do a hill start. All in all I am very annoyed, I...

Can anybody advise me which is the best radar/speed gun detector available for a Clio182. I know the heat reflective windscreen causes problems with some systems. Does anyone have a sytem fitted to their 172/182 which works well, thanks, Tony

Hello mate, my new 182 had the same fault. Its a simple fix. The brake light switch needs adjusting, when you press the bake pedal the brake lights come on and a signal is sent to the ABS control unit. In this case the signal to the ABS unit is getting there too early and confusing it, this in...

At last!Got my car back this afternoon after 4 days. Service light fault was due to the brake switch needing set up correctly. The tracking, although straight was pointing to the right? Never mind, the service department have all eaten a huge slice of humble pie, to say sorry the gave me a...

I am having the same problem also with the steering, the steering wheel has to be a couple of degrees off verticle to the left to make the car go straight. The dealers wont believe me, the so called technical expert said it was the coating on the tyres because they were new!! Come back after...

I got my new182 last Thursday mate, is been in the dealers since Monday having them fix the problem with the service, ABS and traction control lights coming on!! Hope you dont get the same fault, enjoy it!!

Thanks for all of your quick replys. The branch is Ness Motors up here in Inverness. Just waiting for them to call back for me to pick it up. I will take it to an independent garage and get them to look at it. I owned a new 172 for two years before this which was a great car, no problems at...

Got my new 182 last week after a 12 week wait, has been pulling slightly to the right. Took it to the dealer only to be told that they found no fault!! The service manager said that the coating on the tyres was probably to blame. Give it till 1000 miles and come back then!!What a discrace, I...
