Card, pressure sensors, front suspension, turbo and clutch on the Laguna II

Sources are not verified in real time and no entry confirms that your car is affected.

Engine / equipment
Renault Laguna II (petrol and dCi)
Period mentioned
2001–2007
Symptoms
The car will not open or start (card, reader or start button); false tyre-pressure warnings; front-axle play; on diesels, turbo failure; a clutch that wears out before 50,000 km; rust on load-bearing parts.
Possible cause described
The hands-free card is its biggest weak point. Front-axle parts (links, ball joints, arms and bushes) are under-engineered. Auto Bild mentions an undersized clutch that may need replacing before 50,000 km (about €950).
Check for the garage
Test the card and start-up several times; check play and rust; on diesels, check for turbo whistle and smoke.
