Renault Koleos - How much more do we have to put up with - samies
We bought the above car from new two years ago last feb, loved the car in March the big ends went in engine,it was under warrant Renault replaced the engine, then the turbo went less than a week later Renault replaced the turbo, then the turbo went again less than a week later,renault replaced the turbo again, then yes turbo went again, this time Renault replaced turbo again, much to our amazement, and something to do with the cat, and offered us £125 renault vouchers as a "gesture" which we were very disappointed at and didn't accept, and now, two weeks later, turbo has gone yet again so back to the garage it has gone, over the last 3 months we must have had the car for 3 weeks in total fumes and all- what can we do, have lost all faith in car, surely it must need another new engine, we are totally fed up and to be honest don't want the car back now- any one know what we can do if anything?

It needs finding out what the problem really is a new engine is not going to solve it,you need an independant assement of the situation.

"It needs finding out what the problem really is a new engine is not going to solve it,you need an independant assement of the situation."

I personally think that enough is enough, an independant assessment isn't going to prove anything. My advice is to have a free half-hour with a good solicitor and find out if the garage could be persuaded by him to buy the car back at a price that can compensate you for your loss of use, inconvenience, and expenses.
