are these cars [loose terminology ] the ones that have a coil thing on each of the leads that go on average every 12 months?, i recall a friend of mine that works in a motor factors telling me the coils are one of their no1 best sellers, but dont panic in case ive got it wrong :-/, but i think i`ll stick to a lovely comfy non french mig,

They do have a few major reliability probs, tyre pressure sensors and the card that starts it costs overa grand to fix so a m 8 was telling me, nice looking though and the V6 model does shift.

Could be :-/  A work mate has a Renault Scenic and that's had a few ignition coils while he's had it.

the card only costs 150 quid, or apparently old cards can be reprogrammed to a different car, have just bought oine for a tenner to try it

today we were in the mechanic shop for friends car (laguna)..

there were a leak from water pump, rear bushes need change..one drop link needs change..but good news the renault parts shop said those tiptronics dont break easily only solenoids make problem from time to time..

and to our friends surprise - as my friend bring the car from another city (to buy cheap which I didnt agree ) the car was clocked
