Turbo removal on a 1.5dci 106bhp? How hard/easy is this? Are there any guides on here?

I posted a week ago that my 2016 1.6 kadjar was whistling when accelerating. Turbo spooling. Well today on the motorway a noise from engine bay then power loss then red stop light came on. Pulled over to hard shoulder. £120 for breakdown recovery to take me to Renault garage. £99 for...

Hey all, My turbo sounds like it's disintegrated (think loose change in a washing machine). I have found a few refurbished and less eye wateringly expensive replacement turbo options online - just wondering if anyone has managed to swap a turbo on one of these Trafics at home? Or is it garage...

Hi just signed up run a Renault master 2016 and having problems so hope some one on hear can point me in the right direction to sort it. Good van but at 97k had lights up on dash and check ignition lights. Code p2099 low boost. When checking the intercooler hose flexible pipe had moved about 6mm...

Hi everyone, I have a 54 plate Renault Clio 1.5 dci with 43k on the clock. When i try and put my “foot to the floor” the car is lagging boost- e.g. cars currently in 4th at about 2k revs, the turbo doesn’t kick in till about 2.5-3k (sometimes varies) Anyone know what the problem is? It is due a...

Hi there, I have a 2011 Renault Grand Espace 2.0 dCI (150PS), few months it has developed rather intermittent issue which results in engine check light coming on and the car loosing power (eventually going to limbo mode). Here is what I know: - RAC recovered the car twice, read DF569 code...

Hi, I have a 2007 1.9 DCI Scenic. I have read lots of posts about the P0235 code (that I have) and the various causes and remedies. Haven't found a post with exactly the same symptoms. If I start the car, immediately run the revs to 1500 and move off keeping the revs up all is well. Once I...

Renault Laguna III GT 205 I have owned this car for 18 months and have enjoyed every mile of driving it. Genuine sale - very rare car, drives really well. Recently did the NC500 in Scottish HIghlands and the car was fantastic, did not miss a beat and also returned 38mpg. The car is for sale...

Hi, Just about to replace the rear discs on a 2009 2.0 Turbo Laguna III Coupe (petrol) Have already read about and had one panic attack, with reference to electronic parking brake restrictions when compressing calipers. But have just had the wheel off, and the motor is on the rear cross member...

Hello i got 2 problems. 1.My turbo cuts off randomly, that i get no boost. I checked the vacuum hose and all is good. Didn't find any boost regulation valve because that hose comes directly from intake to turbo wastegate. 2. I got Check engine light, OBD2 said its the EGR, I took it apart...

Hi all, as you can see I am new to the forum and have made an account to ask this questions, however any help would be much appreciated as my knowledge around cars is very limited! I own a Renault Traffic Sport 2 litre turbo injection, I was travelling home from Leeds to Sunderland, I got 1...

I've had a search and can't find anything similar relating to this mode/year. Over the last couple of weeks a significant whine/whistle has developed that sounds like a turbo whine. It happens from about 1500rpm upwards when under load, not coasting. The van has only done about 20,000 miles...

I am getting very conflicting advise on when to change my cambelt on my 2006 Gran Espace. The car has only done about 45,000 miles from new and last had a new cambelt and pully changed just 5 years ago at around 18,000 miles. My local garage says the belt is good for 7 years but another says...

When I came to stop after a drive I noticed smoke from under the engine bay. Had a look and it was coming from the back around the turbo. There appears to be an oil leak, either where the large metal hose meets the turbo (the one that comes from the front under the air box and over the...

Any ideas please? I have changed my turbo on Megane and what I believe is the intercooler pipe (maybe called the turbo air intake - has a bendable hose clipped to a metal pipe which is the part that slots on to the top hole in the turbo) no longer fits. I am trying to work out if the new turbo...
