Brand New Clio locking problems.....
 

Any of you clio owners had any problems with the central locking? Here is my mum's problem.

She has a brand new Clio, she locks the car at night, and in the morning it has unlocked it's self :shock: It has done it two days in a row. In theory this is not possible, as the doors automatically lock after something like 5 mins.

There are no other Clio's on the road..so I doubt there could be any signal confusion. Just woundered if this was a common problem. Think it may need a trip to the dealer to have alook at!

My mom had a similar problem with a new Grand Espace.. they had to take the car back and provide a NEW one!!!
Now she had 6 times problems with the clutch pedal (it stays down).. 6 times she took the second car back and 6 times they were unable to fix for more than a week.. now they registered an old Espace at her name and kept the new one for God knows how long to find out...

now wanting to scare you, but welldon't be surpised if they problem won't be fixed at the first try :? anyway for sure take the car back to the dealerhsip!

Interesting TT. Time to see what the Renault dealers are like after we have parted with the money!

^^ There is a big renault garage out on the A40 out of london, the sales manager out there (i think) is a bloke i met over at lemans, hes a nice chap, first name Lladis (he's french) tell him your mates with adam coombes. Might do sumthing!! lol

Like ban you from the dealship :o

LOL, yeah, second thoughts jon, dont! :wink:

Ooh, u got a new car in the family coombs?

^^ Nah mate, he was an assistant to the Press Woman we had out at lemans, for promoting my mate who i went over with. I was a run around and basically PA for the drivers as well, so we spent quite a bit of time together over the week. I got to know him quite well, saw him recently at another GT race also. He is car MAD!

I wouldnt mind a clio 182 sport tho! :wink:

No no, I mean the bmw convirtable!

i heart about this problems,but they were from Megane

I have no idea!

I know that old ford locks worked like that, as people used to run round with half cut tennis balls, put them over the lock and hit them. This resulted in the vacum braking and the door unlocking.

LOL, oh shit, haha we've had the 330ci convertable for about a year, its my mums, we sold the black M3 unfortunately no amount of begging was gunna get me insured on it, altough we would have made nearly as much money flogging my car! What a ridiculous 2nd hand market! :roll:

I thought i'd change my avatar after the halloween festivities, get a bit of an update!! :)

Ahh, it all makes sense now!
