As an American I find it surreal to see these cars from across the border

🥰

Did anyone ever worked on this or wired their navigation or radio in a laguna 2 2001, this is what I got from previous owner... And I can't seem to find any wiring diagrams on internet. If someone could help that would be very appreciated

This tailgate stop buffer is loose, and I can't put it back. Can I glue it or is there some other solution? The car is Renault Captur.

The vehicle is a 2016 Renault Fluence 1.5 dCi, 81 kW, with 164,000 km on the odometer.
The ABS warning light has come on, and the ESP is no longer working. What could be causing this? The only fault code present is the one shown in the attached photo. Could the ABS pump be the cause?

Hello everyone, I have Skoda Octavia 2022 and I am going to sell it and I was thinking to purchase this Austral 2026, this model really looks amazing and both me and my wife are interested. Does anyone have any suggestions or ? I have never owned Renault before.Thank you!

Hello r/Renault, we are Magic Lane, the team behind Magic Earth. After a lot of head-unit testing we've shipped a beta of Magic Earth AUTO and we'd love feedback from people who actually drive these cars every day. 

Why we built this for AAOS

AAOS owners have been waiting for a solid navigation alternative. Most options still lean on phone projection or rely entirely on connectivity. We built Magic Earth AUTO specifically for your infotainment system, running natively on the hardware. Not retrofitted from a phone.

Here's what that means in practice:

• Works fully offline. Download maps for 200+ countries and navigate anywhere: tunnels, mountain passes, remote regions, underground car parks. No connectivity? No problem. Turn-by-turn works the same. When you're connected, live traffic and speed camera alerts layer on top automatically.
• Hands-free voice control. "Navigate to Paris." "Avoid toll roads." "Add a stop." "Report a hazard ahead." Your car's voice assistant talks directly to Magic Earth AUTO through the standard AAOS intent framework. Hands stay on the wheel, eyes on the road.
• Purpose-built for your Renault car's display. Full-screen, automotive-optimised map rendering. Smooth 3D perspective, lane-level guidance, junction view for complex intersections, automatic day/night switching. This is designed for driving, not projected from your phone.
• Privacy by default. No tracking. No location data transmitted to anyone. Core navigation runs locally on your car. GDPR-compliant from the ground up, because how you drive is nobody else's business.

A real privacy-first alternative to Google Maps

If you've been using Google Maps because it's what's built in, know that there's now a 100% privacy-friendly option that doesn't come with the tradeoff. No profile built on your trips, no location history synced to an account, no data handed off to advertisers. Same core navigation experience, offline maps, live traffic, voice control, lane guidance, minus everything Google collects along the way.

What early access members get

• A free Magic Earth AUTO license for as long as you're part of the beta community
• Direct line to the team building the product. Your feedback shapes the roadmap
• First access to new features before wider release
• A say in how privacy-first navigation evolves

What we're testing

We want feedback on:

• Real-world routing accuracy on your daily commute
• Head-unit UX (touch targets, glance-ability, how it feels while driving)
• Bugs, crashes, weird edge cases, screenshots and videos welcome
• Offline performance, map quality, whether you hit any dead zones

 

How to join

Send us a mail at betatesting@magicearth.com. Include your car model, AAOS version if you can find it, and the email address tied to your Google account on the head unit, that way we can link your beta access directly without needing to ask for it separately. We'll get back to you with access details. Happy to answer anything in the comments.

Loving the built-in caddy area in the Renault 4 - perfect for a stash of 🍻

Quick Update on my R19; Even though the springs had to be replaced beforehand and the clutch cable snapped, my little R19 made it to the North Cape!

We recently bought a Renault Arkana self charging hybrid and have not noticed this on the dashboard before. My wife called and said that it started bleeping with arrows pointing away from the battery towards the other two Icons. What does that mean? Its no longer doing it but I haven't noticed the icons on there before.

Rim options for the new Twingo are not the same in every country. In France and Germany, you can opt for these 18 inch 'Mikado' alloy wheels that look like table tennis bats! Yoink 😀

It seems they are only offered on the Evolution trim.

This heatshield is missing from my car. As you can see in the second picture, my brake lines, abs module and whatever is back there are all exposed to the heat of the turbo, exhaust. I'm having a hard time finding a part code for it, so I hope someone can help me. The car is a 2013 megane 3 grandtour 1.5 dci.
