After 10 years to have been in possession of the first legendary Renault it was time for a new one

After 10 years to have been in possession of the first legendary Renault it was time for a new one. After 200,000 kilometers had the gearbox bearing 3rd gear given the spirit of our friend. This time it would be a diesel in connection with new activities. A diesel air conditioning was adequate. There was a nice copy in The Hague and proved to be the best choices. Au revoir et bienvenue diesel fuel! not start the first time (193 551 km). It was time .. Just started a blog to keep AutoWeek, your car suddenly not start. After just an afternoon here on the forum and looking around at all the ghost stories about the Scénic have read fiction was still just reality. From one moment to the next there was a strange noise from the starter motor and electronics all died. All kinds of notifications on the dashboard that the brakes would have gone and the light was no longer active with repetitive beeps and messages reminded me of the true nature of the beast. 

Luckily I was clear enough mind to realize that can not have eternal life an old battery in combination with cold, damp weather. After having looked around on forums proved that thought not to be unrealistic and I have the batteries of our other car (Renault Clio) hung on the Scénic and with some effort the diesel came back to life. After a while had some difficulties with the French philosophy of building cars I'm driving gotten the same day with a new battery. It appears again that your mind (which considers French misery as standard) has relatively little difficulty solving problems.

Our Scénic last year had many problems with the injection and EGR valve and the like. Since that I myself am going to ride in the car, 'm now what tickled (ie chipped) and have more power contact is all in the past. Forums you read for example that the EGR valve open only at constant speeds and slowly clogging.
Therefore, it is normally so that you clean the valve once in a while.
Sounds all well and good, but an afternoon of dancing between the Germans do wonders in your Scénic. The valve has repeatedly about 10 minutes may be open at a constant speed, V-Power Diesel way. So I found out that "he even 8 km / h faster than can the manufacturer (173 km / h reached on GPS instead of 165). After that afternoon seemed to sound the diesel also healthier.

All in all I am beginning more and more to believe that if you love your car, you also get everything back. More torque provides the "free rein" to your motorcycle and in my case very smoothly on track.
Maybe it's not for everyone .. But who has a little knowledge of cars combined with some technical understanding, a long way to come up with the French friends!
220K like a charm (220 550 km)

Again a long time since the last update ... A long time spent time on the forum, but after reading back my review until now yet again become enthusiastic. Definitely give the number of views over yet again the motivation!

We are now 30,000 km further since the last update and miraculously, the car only get better ride ever since! A long time have long been there no excessive cost to the car (a leak ridden band during vacation after). So I did last summer vacation road trip through Italy of 5,000 kilometers made it. The first 4,000 kilometers are'm gone without a struggle. Unfortunately we were on the way back, just before Switzerland, probably cloudy diesel refueling at a local petrol station. In Switzerland we have therefore had 4x the message that the injection would be faulty, but the engine sputtered not happy. Then in Germany, just as the previous holiday, filled up the tank with V-Power and freude am fahren driven further home. This time we stayed in the night (cool air) tapped 176 on the GPS. With a roof box on top, yet without even one report of a faulty injection. Thus we have the Scénic without the hassle of driving 212,000 to 217,000 km in two weeks.

Now stands' ie a wheel bearing had broken the 220,000 kilometers and recently. Therefore, the brake discs and are equal but replace bearings on both sides. It ended just keeps maintenance to this kind of mileage. Now he rides smoother (read: "smoother") than ever and even the slight vibration from the armrest disappeared.
Furthermore, 'he just had a normal maintenance and to get to the rear wheels begin to be replaced. That's still a little thing; the tires of this model Scénic wear by definition skewed off ... Apparently they have done that at Renault for the handling, so be it.
Motor considering there is nothing to complain about. He again has fresh oil tank and I regularly V-Power. I hope that the quality of maintenance will bear fruit in the 350,000 kilometers!

Note: I'm back after reading my last post was exactly a year ago without knowing it! 27000 km a year so.
