Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
yes, 2 ignition coils had already been replaced, then last week we had a main dealer fit the other 2, not bad eh, all four coils replaced within 5 years and 50,000 miles.renault uk did not want to know. they admit there was a bad batch of coils fitted to some scenics,but as i did not own the car when the first 2 coils were thrown away and even though the 2 most recent ones come under the bad batch, they can not or are not willing to help out or take any responsibility. after asking many scenic owners, this seems to be a very common problem, ranging from 2000 models up to 2003 models.
What's most practical about your car?
space
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
