Re: What MPG are you getting?

Low 30s this tank - 3 week old Puma ST with 650 miles on it. Not sure whether it's got cylinder deactivation - anyone know? Start stop seems to work beautifully. 15 month old 125PS Auto with 5500 miles here.. still low 30s :D Thought I drove mine badly economy wise, but, not been below 42mpg... :o ...

Re: Battery problem update

On page 44 of this thread I reported a battery voltage reading of 12.2 volts at the terminals after a day stood idle. I checked again earlier this morning as the car has not been started since Friday and the reading is 12.12 volts at the terminals so I think that's ok and I'm confident it will star...

Re: What would you trade yours in for?

Renault and Nissan have been partners for a good few years now. Our car before the Puma was a 2nd Gen Qashqai with the 1.5 DCI K9K engine. Only issues we had with it was the drivers heated seat stopped working which was repaired under warranty, and I changed the battery at approx 5 years old. With t...

The Renault diesel engines aren't bad.. I've had a couple of cars with the 1.5 K9K engine and they've been rock solid.

Re: What MPG are you getting?

Puma destined to be the no1 best seller in Europe if it isn't already. Jukes, Konas, Mokkas don't stack up for all the reasons Sparks has explained. There's an upgrade due in 2023 and a few things need addressing but I doubt they will mess with it too much. ...along with a mild face lift just to gi...

Re: Transmission Too Hot Press Brake

Well I am sorry this has appeared for you, but glad it's not just me! I got fed up with it on the day it really turned nippy, so whilst the technicians and I agreed it was 'just one of those things' on particularly cold days last winter, I chased it up again. They did some research, and advise it i...

Re: Colour Choice with Pana Roof

Interesting US article on them. I’ve had issues with sunroofs in the past. Leaking mainly. My wife’s MG ZR needed it re-seating at four years old and without much use at all. Drain holes need keeping clear too. I’ve never had one shatter though - but then I’ve never had a pano. Going back to height...
