Renault Logan repair
The Renault Logan is an affordable family car, so to keep its price down, components and assemblies from other Renault models were extensively used. The car's MacPherson strut front suspension with lower wishbones is based on that of the Renault Clio II, while the rear features a semi-independent H-shaped crossbeam with trailing arms, similar to the Renault Modus. The entire heating system is also borrowed from the new Modus. The electronic control unit is borrowed from the Twingo, and the car received the cooling system vents and gearshift knob from the Espace.
The instrument panel is a non-detachable structure consisting of a steel frame filled with polymer foam and covered with polymer film.
Remove the instrument cluster to replace instrument cluster components or for a complete replacement.
You will need a T20 TORX wrench.
Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
With the minimum permissible thickness of the brake pad friction linings, the size measured by the diameter of the pads installed in the brake mechanism with the clearance adjuster set to its original condition is 179.4 mm for a vehicle with a 1.4 L engine and 202.45 mm for a vehicle with a 1.6 L engine.
The brake drum is removed for replacement if the working surface is damaged or worn (the maximum permissible drum diameter for a vehicle with a 1.4L engine is 181.25 mm, for a 1.6L engine - 204.45 mm), as well as to check the condition of the brake mechanisms, replace the brake pads and wheel cylinders.
Replace hoses and pipes if they are damaged.
We also recommend replacing hoses every 100,000 km or 5 years of vehicle operation (whichever comes first), as a preventative measure, even if they appear undamaged.
