I have a scenic 06 plate. My wipers have stopped working about 4 times in the last 6 months, which is not an enjoyable experience when on the motorway in the rain. I have to switch the ignition off and on to get them working again. Just about to book it into the garage (to probably have them tell me they 'can't find anything wrong with them sir'.)

You have to remove the battery to take it out and see it better, one the battery is out you will see two small bolts that hold the sensor in pace over the crankshaft. Peter

First you need to locate the alternator just under the cam belt, drivers side bottom of the engine. From here theres 2 bolts up the top which need to be removed so the alternator can swivel thus loosening the old belt, remove the old belt, put new one on and pull alternator back so new belt is tight. Then redo bolts and hey presto. You may need a second person to hold the alternator tight to make life a bit easier.

If its a Grand Scenic the fuse is in that contraption under the bonnet (NOT the glove compartment). Renault wanted to charge £40 just for the diagnostic and were already guessing it was a £200 new motor, and a couple of other places were convinced it was a glove box fuse, find a friendly garage they'll fit a new fuse for £15, worth it because it is very fiddley andd you need the fingers of a surgeon.

the Grand Scenic is the perfect vehicle for making Renault money for lots of little electrical faults, getting from A to B is more of a challenge

To replace a wind mirror on a Saab 95 you have to first remove the trim around the window and disconnect the wires from the mirror. Next, unscrew the mirror from the door. Lastly, replace by screwing the new mirror in place and connecting the wires.

on the front left of the engine if its a petrol

Unsure what you mean set? But if you replace a fuel pump in your tank, if fitted properly should pump fuel as soon as you put ignition on and start car.

If your blower has packed up, or only works on the faster speed it is likely that the rheostat is about to fail, this is located behind the dashboard and is a pig of a job to do- A Renault dealership will charge the job 5 hours as the whole dashboard has to come away!!

By stripping down gearbox - it is the only way to do

loosen the wheel nuts and jack up the car ( use axle stands if available ). remove the wheel, Use a 22mm socket to remove the lower bolt and a 22mm 12 point socket to remove the top bolt. push the old shock absorber off and push the new one in and replace the bolts.
ten minute job.

3.0 litre V6 will cost £1100 to replace

The headlight washers are supposed to spray when the windshield ones do. The headlight wipers should also come on. If there is no spray, it is likely because the little tee valve behind the grill is shot. Replacements are available from the dealer amazingly inexpensively. If the wipers don't work, you have a more expensive problem.

== == Description The key fob splits into 2 parts with a sliding action

There may be an arrow embossed on one side of the key fob pointing towards the metal part of the key - this shows the direction this side of key will travel when you split the 2 parts. The metal part of the key will stay with theside of the plastic fob which has the arrow on it.

The thicker part of the fob (which contains the battery - this was a CR1220, 3V in our case) will move backwards away from the side attached to the metal part. Method

Put key fob in-between finger and thumb and push backwards it will split in two. No tool is necessary.

Probably if it were driven in a straight line. I would have thought the steering lock would engage so driving it would be inadvisable.

it is in the black box on the passeners side below bonnet

scrap it 20 pound

In THIS country (USA) it is illegal to distribute brake or suspension parts that are inferior in quality to the original equipment. If you use aftermarket brake parts the auto manufacturer will no doubt try to get out of a warranty that has anything to do with the brakes. On the other hand, the brakes are probably no longer under warranty anyway so what difference does it make.

This needs to be done by a specialist as there is no dipstick on the gearbox itself. A computer is used to gauge the amount of fluid removed, and the corresponding amount put in using a cycle to replace it all.
