The word SERV apears on my car when I start it and stays on, what

You need to refer yo your owners manual, It is a WARNING light, your dealer can tell you the problem for free but fixing it is a different issue

We do not have this make in the USA so have no info on this car.

try crank position sensor. but would recommend having the car on a fault diagnostic machine to establish a fault code, hope this helps

All the computers on the car are linked together. The ABS can trigger the service light on some applications, ie speed sensors. You can still drive, but you wont have ABS, meaning if you brake hard enough or in gravel the tires can lock up and skid.

Hi All, the very same thing happened to me. Cold weather broke my radio and the display screen stayed on with the time and temperature but the radio wouldn't work. I rang Renault & they said I need to come in an get a new radio but I put it off. In the end the problem started affecting my battery and the car wouldn't start. But then when I jump started it, it also started the radio again perfectly. Problem solved!
Hope this helps. Good luck!

if u email me later i will read this in workshop manual, cant remeber off hand, i will email you back tom. i need year of car pet or diesel.

The car is due for a Service. Contact a Renault Dealer or other garage.

If you book a service using another garage, remember to ask if they are able to switch off the service light, otherwise you will have to pay Renault a charge just to switch it off as well as service costs.

Try pressing the D3 button on your gear shift - little button below the main one. D3 allows for quick acceleration, but the light also shows when the car is locked is gear ('limp home mode') due to another problem.

That means that a problem occurred with the airbag.
