Warning Light, Orange Spanner 2008 clio

[willynwilson]

Hi all,

Just got into my car and the orange spanner warning light came on,

after this came on, i noticed that my car is taking a while to start up when cold,

can anyone offer any solutions?

im taking the car to the garage, but should be covered under warrenty (shoudnt it)

just so i can get some expert advice before they wiggle out of the warrenty.

Regards

Scroll through the trip and it should say, check injection or similar.

What engine is it?

 

[willynwilson]

1.2 mk3

just flick through the trip?

that it?

How many miles has it done?

 

[willynwilson]

crisis averted, after flicking through it and the manual it says that it should come on and flash when the service is due.

already had the service but didnt get the trip reset,

need to get that done!

 

[willynwilson]

anybody know how to reset the service indicator?

Was going to say that :rasp:!

Go to the miles before service and then press and hold the top button i think it is..

 

[willynwilson]

Kinda. Go to the message that says 'service due' and press and hold until it goes back to service in 18000m

Guy did it in front of me but that was a while ago!

Renault are slacking when it comes to servicing tbh, Picked up my 197 a couple of weeks back and when i got in the car the same thing was flashing so i walked back in and they checked the system and confirmed they had serviced it 2 days before, A mechanic came out to the car and reset it then to my horror was nosing in my handbook one day and noticed they didnt stamp the service book, Back to Renault and got it stamped but why do they not do these things ?? Should be standard procedure ? No wonder why people get pissed off with the stealer
