That's a new one. Why should that be necessary. Good luck and hope you get a speedy outcome.

Thanks Rizmo. It’s because it’s dragged on 3 weeks and it’s headlights that are the issue. So I’ve stressed that I can’t be confident they will not go off when I’m driving. Also that there has been no return of calls to the dealer and they said they had no record of my car being in the last time it was etc etc

More craziness this morning. Car is 85/90% full of fuel and last night was showing 540 miles in the tank. This morning shows 400 and the mpg seems to have been reset too. Also getting the 80mph limit showing in 30’s..

So sorry to hear of these problems with your car 😵‍💫

I’m likely to get mine Monday or Tuesday.

Everyone else, are you happy with the vehicle so far or regretting the purchase?

Don’t get me wrong there are quite a few things I like about it, just the few issues I have but mainly the dog**** service from the dealer with the lights which is hopeless

I've also had the 80 showing when it should be 30. A full tank showed 605 then dropped to 520 the next morning. The on-board computer seems to be constantly recalculating. I'm at the dealers on Wednesday so will try and get some answers.

Good chat with them yesterday. They will call me after it’s been in for the lighting fix which will hopefully set it straight..

Got in the car today and the maps page was not working, everything else was fine, but the maps was just a blank screen. Then I remembered this had been mentioned here, so went back through the posts. First tried force closing the maps app as suggested by @davebg - that didn't work. Then found that @rencar mentioned the power button on the top, which I had not found so far. Pressed it for 10 seconds, everything rebooted and the maps screen now works. Thanks guys!! I knew if I went into the dealer, I would probably have had blank looks all round!! This afternoon, I've been out with the wife in her two day old Clio Hybrid, trying to help her sort out the beeps and warnings, with limited success. I have to say, I am not a lover of the Clio, but it's her car. At least the My Renault app work for her.
