If you go for one of those at around 120-150k a gearbox failure is common and they as they are famous for it although very nice vans.

 

 

 

Renault Trafic: common problems and solutions

www.breakeryard.com/renault-car-parts/trafic/common-problems-with-renault-trafic

 

Problem: The Renault Trafic is known for having issues with the gearbox. They are known to just stop working and only reverse working, with some cases only having the odd gear maybe available.

Solution: The only solution to fixing this problem is to have a new gearbox fitted. You may want to try getting a reconditioned gearbox fitted, as this will save you money. We can help you find this part for your vehicle.

 

Starting problems

Problem: If you are facing problems when starting your vehicle then it is a process of elimination to find exactly what the problem is. It could be a number of things, but the main causes on these vehicles are an air lock in the fuel system, faulty fuel injectors or faulty fuel pump.

Solution: The first thing to do is to get a test done for checking if there is air getting locked in the system and this is the cheapest option. If this is not the problem, then get your fuel injectors checked out. It will be cheaper to get the faulty injector reconditioned rather than buy a new one. Again, if this is not the problem then you will have to check the fuel pump and have a new one fitted if this is the issue. If your problem is the injectors and you want to try replacing them yourself, have a look at the video below:

Well within the budget that British Car Auctions generally get for ex aa / rac vehicles. High mileage but well serviced.
Just seen the local bit..... ooops
