How do you replace the spark plugs on a Renault Scenic?
Hi Scenic owner,
To access to the location, you have to remove engine cover by lifting the front part, ie nearer to you, then pull the cover towards you. This will prevent damaging the cover.
Every spark plugs has its individual ignitor. It can be removed by unfastening bolt size 10mm socket.
Once the ignitor is removed, the spark plug which is inside the plug well can be removed by using the right size spark plug socket wrench.
Hope this help.
How do you change a fan belt on a Renault scenic?
8 valves or 16 Valves?
Basically locate the tensioner which is a round black plastic pulley, it should have a 13mm bolt through the middle of which, and an Allen key hole aswell? This hole may also be in the form of a torx ?
There are so many difference types of engine it would be difficult to explain all of them.
On some tensioners you must put your 13mm (long) spanner onto the bolt and lever it toward yourself (from front of vehicle), this will allow slack on the belt, don't let go, have your assistant pull the belt off whilst you hold the tensioner off.
Then simply refit the belt / fit a new one.Dont forget the way it is routed, i.e draw picture of how the belt sits around each pulley.

How do you fit a hazard warning switch in a Renault clio mark 2?
It's easy, on the mark 2 models, the rectangular panel which holds the hazard switch (with also the door lock button to the left and the heated rear window switch on the right)
This panel will lever out of the facia with a small screwdriver or something similar, just lever from each end a little at a time until the panel comes out.
Then the switch can be unclipped out and with the wiring connector also unplugged the switch will come out of the panel towards you.
Switches are quite easy to get from Renault dealers or even cheaper on the 'bay'
Hope this helps!

How do you replace a starter motor on a Renault megane scenic?
with great difficulty and cussing. Renault are the worst vehicles ever made...... with citroen,peugeot and traubant.
Hi,
I have just bought a 97 megane with the same problem. Think I found the answer yesterday... as long as you are confident enough to have a go. I shall be tomorrow. The answer I found is:
The whole job took me just under an hour - bearing in mind I am a computer engineer and not a car mechanic and know nothing about Renaults at all..
To prevent this happening to others I have included a very quick guide of what to do if this happens again. I realise this will not fix all Renault hood problems but should at least be tried first and 1 hour labour should do it…
1) Release hydraulics on hood cover by undoing the small tap located in the boot (under left hand carpet in boot)
2) Pull manual release for boot cover - located in the boot area rear seat compartment (Step 1 and Step 2 better documented in the owners manual)
3) With the Hood nearly closed (but with the back window in the air !) and the hood cover opened - by hand, remove the 2 nuts that hold the rear seat onto the rear bulkhead.
4) Now use a star / torque drive to remove the 4 screws that hold the hood release mechanism onto the rear bulkhead.
5) There is no need to disconnect any cables just remove from the cable clips.
6) The release mechanism can now be viewed easily. Look to re-engage the cam that the emergency release cable is attached to into the metal arm that is driven from the worm gear on the motor.
7) May need to engage small micro switches on the mechanism to get the worm gear to operate (do this very carefully and by holding the switches on while operating the hood from inside the cab. (need 2 people for this) Operate the hood only for short 1-second bursts until the worm gear allows the cam to drop easily back into place.
8) All above sounds complicated but actually when you have the mechanism laying in front of you in the hood storage space area its very straight forward and should take 30 - 40 minutes maximum for someone who has seen it once before.
Apparantly, this sounds more complex than it is... will let you know tomorrow!

Firstly thanks for your answer, it was very helpful. But I had problems getting the worm gear motor to activate, I tried different microswitch setting to no avail. In the end I unplugged the wiring plug, and unclipped the other wiring socket from the latch unit. Remove the unit, and then removed the four torx screws holding the motor to the unit, and carefully pulled the motor away about 5mm. this allowed me to re-engage the arm onto the pin. Finally pushing the motor back in place, and carefully retightening the screws. When refitted the roof operated fine, both down and up,and gave no more problems. cheers Barry.
