Hello, all the Sifus... Can anyone tell me what this issue is for? Is it any ECU failure or anything else? If any owner faced this issue may I know the repair cost?

Actually, today I went to test drive a used Renault Fluence 2.0 2014, then I found this issue appears on the dash after engine start but during the test drive I did not feel any brake issue.

Since there was no brake grab it may be sensor issue, especially if the car was unsed & parked for a long while.

I am also keen on getting the RF. Its good value for money. However as this model is discontinued & it did not sell well, is there difficulty in getting spares? Is there any spare part shop in PJ/KL?

Fluence engine similar with many Nissan models (MR20DE).
Maybe can ask Nissan communities.

Yes engine & transmission are Nissan , so I think not a problem. My worry is on the non engine parts. Even simple wear & tear items like brake disc, pads, shock absorbers,abs sensors, lights, etc! Potong kerata body panels will surely be hard to find.

My guess is your injectors are blocked/faulty. ECU safety is triggered that is preventing engine start & possible damage.

Need workshop attention.

Finally bought a 2016 Fluence with 90Kkm done. I know there are cheaper ones , paid $33K but this is in superb condition with full maintenance records. The maintenance records spoke volumes as how well the car has been taken care off. This car is facelift top spec. model. Very satisfied with the car, everything works, no rattles, smooth engine & gearbox, 70% tyre thread.

Doing a little research found some complaints of transmission issues. Quite bad in USA ( don't know what the yanks were using the car for....hahaha!)
Anyone of you had transmission issue?
What KM is ATF change recommended?

For regular city use 90Kkm ATF change recommended by Nissan. I feel this is too long, especially as this CVT is pron to failure, correct me if I'm wrong!

Please advise, tq in advance!

Hello RF owners,

My son will be getting his license soon and i am thinking of getting a used RF for him because the resale prices are just so tempting. I saw one model yr 2015 going for less than 10k. Thats cheaper than a 2016 axia! The average prices for RF are less than 20k... around 16k. Now that this car is 7 to 8 years old, any comments on the reliability and maintenance costs would be most appreciated.
