GENERAL INFORMATION

Brake circuit Precautions for repair

30A

I - SAFETY

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

For an operation requiring the use of a lift, follow the
safety advice (see Vehicle: Towing and lifting) (02A,
Lifting equipment).

The brake regulation circuit must be free of all hydrau-
lic and electrical faults.

In case of incorrect handling, the brake fluid can cause
serious injury and damage. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions for brake fluid.

To prevent dust from entering the master cylinder re-
servoir and the brake circuit, the plug must be removed
just before filling and closed immediately afterwards,

2 - Instructions to be followed during the operation

Do not press on the brake pedal during work on the
brake system.

If, during work on the brake system, any damage on
any part is observed, it must be repaired before driving
the vehicle again.

Brake fluid is highly corrosive. Ensure any brake fluid
spilt on parts of the vehicle is cleaned off.

Use brake fluids that comply with the Renault standard
(see Precautions for repair) .

Check the brake fluid levels in the braking circuit and
the bleeding device.

Check that the pressure of the bleeding device is
between 1.5 bar and 2 bar.

II - CLEANLINESS

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

Protect any bodywork components that risk being da-
maged by brake fluid with a cover.

2 - Instructions to be followed during the operation

Clean around the braking system with BRAKE CLEA-
NER
(see Vehicle: Parts and ingredients for the re-
pairwork
) (04B, Consumables - Products).

Do not allow friction materials to come into contact with
grease, oil or other lubricants and cleaning products
which are mineral oil based.

III - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

When replacing brake pads, always replace the pads
on the other side as well.

When replacing a disc, always replace the disc on the
opposite side.

When replacing brake discs, you must replace the bra-
ke pads.

Always replace the rigid brake pipe clips.

Reminder:

- The pipes between the master cylinder, callipers and

the hydraulic assembly are connected using threaded
unions with a metric thread.

- Therefore, only parts specified in the Parts Catalogue

for this vehicle should be used.

WARNING

Prepare for the flow of fluid, and protect the sur-
rounding components.

WARNING

In order not to damage the brake hose:

- do not tension the hose,

- do not twist the hose,

- check that there is no contact with the surrounding

components.

IMPORTANT

To avoid any accident, bring the pistons, brake pads
and brake discs into contact by depressing the
brake pad several times.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Brake circuit Bleeding

30A

a

Connect the brake circuit bleeding device (after
having received Renault approval) to the master cy-
linder reservoir (see the instructions for the equip-
ment).

a

Pressurise the brake circuit.

a

Adjust the pressure to between 1.5 bar < P < 2 bar
for 3 minutes to stabilise it in the braking circuit.

a

Close the circuit between the bleed screw and brake
fluid reservoir without dumping the pressure.

a

Fit the bleed containers to the four bleed screws of
the callipers.

a

Undo the calliper bleed screws:

- front left-hand,

- front right-hand,

- rear left-hand,

- rear right-hand.

a

Open the circuit between the bleed screw and brake
fluid reservoir and allow the liquid to run until all the
air bubbles have been released.

a

Tighten the bleed screws in the following order:

- front left-hand,

- front right-hand,

- rear left-hand,

- rear right-hand.

a

Undo the calliper bleed screw:

- front left-hand,

- allow the fluid to run until all the air bubbles have

been released,

- tighten the bleed screw on the calliper.

a

Carry out the previous operation on the callipers:

- front right-hand,

- rear left-hand,

- rear right-hand.

a

Close the bleed screw to dump the pressure in the
brake circuit.

a

Remove the brake circuit bleeding device from
the master cylinder reservoir.

a

Check pedal travel and resistance. If it is not correct,
finish bleeding the brake circuit with the help of a se-
cond operator. Start the bleed operation by bleeding
the calliper that is the furthest away from the master
cylinder:

- hold down the brake pedal,

- open the circuit bleed screw to release the air from

the brake circuit,

- close the circuit bleed screw,

- release the brake pedal.

a

Top up the brake fluid level in the reservoir, if neces-
sary. Check the sealing of the front and rear bleed
screws and ensure that the sealing covers are in pla-
ce (see 30A, General information, Brake circuit
Tightening torque
, page 30A-6) .

a

During a road test, trigger braking regulation to con-
firm that the brake pedal travel is correct.

a

Clean off any traces of brake fluid on the vehicle
using BRAKE CLEANING PRODUCT (see Vehi-
cle: Parts and ingredients for the repairwork
)

Note:

The circuit between the bleed screw and brake
fluid reservoir is closed in different ways depen-
ding on the type of equipment used:

- valve,

- switch.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Brake fluid: Specifications

30A

BRAKE FLUID REPLACEMENT INTERVAL

Our braking technology, and in particular the disc bra-
kes (hollow pistons which conduct little heat, have a
low volume of fluid in the cylinder, sliding callipers avoi-
ding the need for a fluid reserve in the least cooled
area of the wheel), has allowed us to prevent the risk of
« vapour lock » as far as possible, even with heavy
braking (mountainous area). However, current brake
fluids are subject to minor deterioration during the first
months of use due to slight humidity intake. This is why
it is recommended that you change the brake fluid: see
maintenance booklet for the vehicle.

1 - Topping up the level

Wear of the brake pads will result in a gradual drop in
the fluid level in the reservoir.

Do not top up the fluid, as the level will rise again when
the pads are next changed. The brake fluid level must
not fall below the minimum mark.

2 - Approved brake fluid

Mixing two incompatible brake fluids in the brake circuit
may lead to:

- serious risk of leakage due mainly to deterioration of

the cups,

- deterioration in the operation of the ESP system.

To prevent such risks, it is essential to use only brake
fluids that comply with the RENAULT standard (see
Vehicle: Parts and ingredients for the repairwork) .

II - MEASURING PROCEDURE

Measure the heights:

- R1,

- R2,

- W1 right-hand and left-hand,

- W2 right-hand and left-hand.

Specific case:

1 - Plate higher than the lift:

Measure the heights (1) , (2) , (3) .

Example: (1) = 13 cm, (2) = 8 cm, (3) = 10 cm.

Calculate the height Wx:

Wx = height (1) + height (3) - height (2) ,

Wx =15 cm.

134347

132535

Note:

For measurements (W1) and (W2) , take into
account the height difference between the plates
and the lift.

Note:

The value of Wx to be entered into the geometry
bench is the average of the W1 heights, right-hand
and left-hand and of the W2 heights, right-hand and
left-hand.

Note:

If the measuring points are located in empty space
(between the rails of the lift), use a bar.

FRONT AXLE COMPONENTS

Front axle assemblies: Precautions for repair

31A

I - SAFETY

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

For an operation requiring the use of a lift, follow the
safety advice (see Vehicle: Towing and lifting) (02A,
Lifting equipment).

2 - Instructions to be followed during the operation

Do not press on the brake pedal during work on the
brake system.

If, during work on the brake system, any damage on
any part is observed, it must be repaired before driving
the vehicle again.

Brake fluid is highly corrosive. Ensure any brake fluid
spilt on parts of the vehicle is cleaned off.

In case of incorrect handling, the brake fluid can cause
serious injury and damage. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions for brake fluid.

II - CLEANLINESS

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

Protect any bodywork components that risk being da-
maged by brake fluid with a cover.

2 - Instructions to be followed during the operation

Clean around the braking system with BRAKE CLEA-
NER
(see Vehicle: Parts and ingredients for the re-
pairwork
) (04B, Consumables - Products).

Do not allow friction materials to come into contact with
grease, oil or other lubricants and cleaning products
which are mineral oil based.

III - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

1 - Bearing, hub carrier

When removing a hub, it is essential to replace the
bearing with a new one.

It is essential to check the condition of the hub and
bearing surface and the hub carrier bore before refit-
ting the bearing.

Use SURFACE CLEANER (see Vehicle: Parts and
ingredients for the repairwork
) (04B, Consumables -
Products) to clean:

- the new bearing's internal and external surfaces

which are in contact with the hub carrier and the hub,

- the hub carrier surfaces in contact with the new bea-

ring,

- the hub surfaces in contact with the new bearing.

Always check the surface condition of the hub carrier
before refitting the "hub - bearing" assembly.

Clean the surfaces of the hub carrier that are in contact
with the "hub - bearing" assembly using SURFACE
CLEANER
(see Vehicle: Parts and ingredients for
the repairwork
) (04B, Consumables - Products)

Replace any component whose contact surfaces have
deep scratches or cracks.

WARNING

Prepare for the flow of fluid, and protect the sur-
rounding components.

WARNING

In order to prevent irreversible damage to the front
hub bearing:

- Do not loosen or tighten the driveshaft nut when

the wheels are on the ground.

- Do not place the vehicle with its wheels on the

ground when the driveshaft has been loosened or
removed.

WARNING

To ensure that the wheel speed sensor works pro-
perly, do not mark the sensor target on the bearing.

WARNING

Do not press the bearing's internal bush so as to
avoid damaging the bearing (very high shrink-fitting
force).

2 - Suspension spring

When replacing the spring, ensure that the positioning
and orientation of the spring and the tool cups are cor-
rect.

When replacing a spring, always replace the spring on
the opposite side.

If a shock absorber is replaced, the shock absorber on
the opposite side must also be replaced.

Check that the spring compressor tool is operating cor-
rectly.

In the interests of safety, do not leave a spring com-
pressed in the spring compressor tool.

During assembly and removing operations, the surface
and the protection paint must not be damaged.

There must be no impacts during operations. Any han-
dling hooks and tightening or positioning clamps
should be equipped with rubber or plastic in order to
avoid damage on the springs.

It is recommended to replace springs if:

- the paint is damaged,

- the spring has dents in it.

They are not usually symmetrical in shape and care
should be taken to assemble them the right way round.
This can be done using the coloured marking's posi-
tion.

3 - Anti-roll bar

During assembly and removing operations, the surface
and the protection paint must not be damaged.

There must be no impacts during operations. Any han-
dling hooks, tightening or positioning clamps should be
equipped with rubber or plastic parts so as to avoid da-
maging the anti roll bar.

It is recommended to replace the anti-roll bar if:

- the paint is damaged,

- the anti-roll bar has dents in it.

4 - Front axle

WARNING

To prevent the suspension spring from prematurely
breaking, do not damage the anti-corrosion protec-
tion.

Note:

the most critical and sensitive zones are in the main
elbows.

WARNING

To prevent any damage, do not use the lower arm
as support for the lifting system.

WARNING

Check the condition of all the gaiters before refit-
ting. Always replace any damaged components
with new ones.

REAR AXLE COMPONENTS

Rear axle assemblies: Precautions for repair

33A

I - SAFETY

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

For an operation requiring the use of a lift, follow the
safety advice (see Vehicle: Towing and lifting) (02A,
Lifting equipment).

2 - Instructions to be followed during the operation

Do not press on the brake pedal during work on the
brake system.

If, during work on the brake system, any damage on
any part is observed, it must be repaired before driving
the vehicle again.

Brake fluid is highly corrosive. Ensure any brake fluid
spilt on parts of the vehicle is cleaned off.

In case of incorrect handling, the brake fluid can cause
serious injury and damage. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions for brake fluid.

II - CLEANLINESS

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

Protect any bodywork components that risk being da-
maged by brake fluid with a cover.

2 - Instructions to be followed during the operation

Clean around the braking system with BRAKE CLEA-
NER
(see Vehicle: Parts and consumables for re-
pair
) (04B, Consumables - Products).

Do not allow friction materials to come into contact with
grease, oil or other lubricants and cleaning products
which are mineral oil based.

III - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

1 - Braking

When replacing brake pads, be sure to replace the
pads on the opposite side.

When replacing a disc, always replace the disc on the
opposite side.

When replacing brake discs, you must replace the bra-
ke pads.

It is essential to replace the rigid brake pipe clips.

2 - Stub axle carrier bearing

Use SURFACE CLEANER (see Vehicle: Parts and
consumables for repair
) (04B, Consumables - Pro-
ducts) to clean:

- the inner surface of the new bearing, in contact with

the rear stub-axle,

- the rear stub-axle surface in contact with the new

bearing.

3 - Suspension spring

When replacing the spring, make sure it is positioned
the right way round.

When replacing a spring, always replace the spring on
the opposite side.

WARNING

Prepare for the flow of fluid, and protect the sur-
rounding components.

WARNING

To avoid damaging the parking brake cable protec-
tors and causing premature wear of the system, do
not handle the cables with a tool.

WARNING

In order not to damage the brake hose:

- do not tension the hose,

- do not twist the hose,

- check that there is no contact with the surrounding

components.

WARNING

To avoid any accident, bring the pistons, brake pads
and brake discs into contact by depressing the
brake pad several times.

WARNING

To avoid brake imbalance, both drums must be of
the same diameter. Regrinding one drum necessi-
tates regrinding of the opposite drum.

WARNING

To ensure that the wheel speed sensor works pro-
perly, do not mark the sensor target on the bearing.

REAR AXLE COMPONENTS

Rear axle assemblies: Precautions for repair

33A

During fitting and removal operations, the surface and
protective paint should not be damaged.

There must be no impacts during operations. Any han-
dling hooks and tightening or positioning clamps
should have rubber or plastic fittings in order to avoid
damage to the springs.

It is recommended to replace springs if:

- the paint is damaged,

- there are dents on the spring.

4 - Rear axle

WARNING

To prevent the suspension spring from prematurely
breaking, do not damage the anti-corrosion protec-
tion.

WARNING

To prevent any damage, do not use the rear axle as
support for the lifting system.

WARNING

To prevent the components of the rear axle from
deteriorating (rubber bushes, brake hoses, etc.) do
not remove the two shock absorbers at the same
time. Proceed one side at a time.

WHEELS AND TYRES

Wheel: Balancing

35A

I - PREREQUISITES FOR WHEEL BALANCING

a

Wheel balancing is a measurement operation.

Several conditions must be met to achieve a reliable
result in a single operation.

The wheel balancer must be installed in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.

It is essential to calibrate the balancer according to
the frequency recommended by the manufacturer.

Do not grease the threaded shaft.

Check the condition of the supports, centring com-
ponents and mountings.

Replace any faulty parts (see manufacturer's ins-
tructions).

The wheel and the wheel balancer must be clean.

Driver's perception

a

If the wheels are not correctly balanced this causes
the steering wheel and/or the vehicle floor to vibrate.

These vibrations appear between 54 mph (90 km/h)
and 90 mph (150 km/h).

II - BALANCING PREPARATION OPERATION

a

Adjust the tyre pressure (see 35A, Wheels and ty-
res
, Tyre inflation pressure: Identification, page
35A-14) .

a

Always carry out a road test for a minimum distance
of 1 mile (2 km) before balancing the wheels, in or-
der to remove any flat spots on the tread caused by
the vehicle being immobilised.

a

Actions to be carried out immediately after the test
drive:

- Position the vehicle on a two-post vehicle lift (see

Vehicle: Towing and lifting) ,

- raise the vehicle,

- leave the four wheels hanging free,

- release the parking brake.

a

To reproduce the exact vehicle wheel assembly, use
a ring (1) of diameter:

a

66 mm

a

There are three types of weight:

Note:

The ring is available from the supplier of the
equipment used.

a

In some countries, the use of lead weights is forbid-
den; in this case it is recommended to use ZAMAK
weights instead.

Only use weights provided by the Parts Department.

a

a

Remove the wheels (see 35A, Wheels and tyres,
Wheel: Removal - Refitting, page 35A-1) .

a

Always clean the wheel, disc, and hub bearing surfa-
ces.

III - PROCEDURE FOR BALANCING THE WHEEL IN
QUESTION

a

Make sure that the wheel balancer bearing surface
and all the centring equipment (ring, thrust plate,
etc.) are kept clean.

a

Try not to scratch the (alloy) wheel rim with the
wheel tightening device.

a

The wheel is fitted on the wheel balancer as follows:

- (5) ring,

- (6) wheel balancer back-plate,

- (7) wheel tightening device (certain alloy wheels

require a device 200 mm in diameter to ensure that
the wheel has been correctly tightened),

- (8) outer wheel plane,

- (9) wheel.

a

Place the wheel on the wheel balancer, with the val-
ve at the top, then lock the wheel in place.

a

Remove any stones trapped in the tyre tread.

WHEELS AND TYRES

Wheel: Balancing

35A

a

Enter the specific wheel parameters when starting
the wheel balancer.

a

Start the wheel balancer and check the wheel balan-
ce, which should be 0 g on each plane of the wheel.

a

If this is not the case, remove the old wheel balan-
cing weights and repeat the wheel balancing proce-
dure, checking that the wheel balance equals 0 on
each wheel plane.

IV - FINAL OPERATION

a

Refit the wheel (see 3 5 A, Wheels and tyres,
Wheel: Removal - Refitting, page 35A-1) .

WARNING

To avoid detachment of the balance weights, use
only weights which correspond to the vehicle
wheel rims.

I - CLEANLINESS

Clean:

- the tyre bead,

- the tyre bead/wheel rim contact surface.

Remove any grit trapped in the tyre treads.

Clean the bearing surfaces on:

- the wheels,

- the discs,

- the hubs.

II - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

WARNING

If checking the pressure when hot, increase the tyre
inflation pressure by 0.2 to 0.3 bar above the
recommended pressure.

WARNING

In order to remove any flat spots on the tread after
the vehicle has stopped, it is essential to carry out a
road test for a minimum distance of 1 mile (2 km)
before balancing the wheels.

WARNING

To avoid detachment of the balance weights, use
only weights which correspond to the vehicle wheel
rims

Perforation

There are two types of perforation:

- single perforation: perforation caused by nail etc. not

requiring a reinforced tyre boot and which can be re-
paired when the tyres are cold,

- damage: rubber detachment etc. requiring repair and

reinforcement of damaged plies.

This repair method only covers single perforations.

Tyre areas

Areas which cannot be repaired:

- tyre bead (1) ,

- shoulder (3) .

Areas which can be repaired:

- sidewall (2) ,

- crown (4) .

Perforation table *

LV: Light Vehicle

LCV: Light Commercial Vehicle

HGV: Heavy Goods Vehicle

* If the diameter of the puncture is greater than these fi-
gures, replace the tyre.

The tyre cannot be repaired if:

- a compulsory marking has been worn away (see 35A,

Wheels and tyres, Tyres: Identification, page 35A-
8
) ,

- the interior of the tyre shows signs of under-inflation

or overloading,

- the rubber shows signs of chemical damage (hydro-

carbons and other corrosive substances),

- incorrect and irreversible repairs have previously

been made to the tyre,

- the carcass has been damaged,

- cuts or circumferential wear (cracks) are visible on the

interior or exterior of the tyre,

- the tyre bead has been damaged (ply visible),

- the tyre's bead wires are visible, damaged or defor-

med,

- the tyre shows an irregular wear pattern which may

impair vehicle handling,

- the repair requires two tyre boots to be overlapped,

- the manufacturer has expressly prohibited any re-

pairs, in writing,

- there is damage to the shoulder area (junction

between the sidewall and the crown),

- the angle of the perforation channel (hole) is greater

than 15˚.

of the wheel rim.

This marking may be:

- complete, for example 6 J 15 5 CH 36,

- simplified, for example 6 J 15.

There are 3 types of wheel rim edges (2) :

- those with two flat edges,

- those with two raised edges,

- those with one flat edge and one raised edge.

2 - Installation diameter for the wheel bolts

The wheel bolts are positioned with a pitch circle dia-
meter of 114.3 mm (5 holes).

3 - Rim run-out

The maximum run-out is measured at the wheel rim
edge (7) .

Steel wheel rims: 0.8 mm

Alloy wheel rims: 0.3 mm

Steering: Precautions for repair

36A

I - SAFETY

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

For an operation requiring the use of a lift, follow the
safety advice (see Vehicle: Towing and lifting) (02A,
Lifting equipment).

2 - Instruction to be followed during the operation

II - CLEANLINESS

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

Use a cover to protect any chassis elements that may
be contaminated with power-assisted steering fluid.

2 - Instruction to be followed during the operation

Clean around the power-assisted steering system
using BRAKE CLEANER (see Vehicle: Parts and in-
gredients for the repairwork
) (04B, Consumables -
Products).

III - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

To ensure correct operation and performance of the
system, do not attempt to repair any components other
than those supplied in After-Sales.

To ensure the quality of the repair, only use the tooling
recommended by the manufacturer.

1 - Power assisted steering circuit:

a - Power-assisted steering fluid

Only use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer,
in order to ensure correct system performance (see
Vehicle: Parts and ingredients for the repairwork)
(04B, Consumables - Products).

b - Blanking plugs

To prevent impurities from entering the power assisted
steering circuit, use blanking plugs on the various dis-
mantled parts.

2 - Seals

To ensure a sound power-assisted steering circuit
seal, replace the power-assisted steering pipe seals
each time a pipe is removed.

3 - Steering column

Do not rest the steering column on the adjustment han-
dle.

Do not handle the steering column by the adjustment
handle or by the wiring.

Manoeuvre the «

steering column - intermediate

shaft » assembly by holding each section (one hand on
the column and the other on the intermediate shaft). If
the steering column is not handled correctly, there is a
risk that the steering column or intermediate shaft
could fall, which could destroy the system.

Always replace the steering column if it is dropped or in
the event of an impact.

4 - Steering box

The steering box should not be carried by the gaiters or
pipes, as this may damage them.

When the vehicle is positioned with the wheels suspen-
ded, the steering rack must not be subjected to violent
movements from lock to lock.

Risks: Damage to the teeth of the steering rack and pi-
nion may cause a safety risk relating to the steering
unexpectedly locking.

5 - Axial ball joint

IMPORTANT

Wear protective gloves during the operation.

WARNING

Prepare for the flow of fluid, and protect the sur-
rounding components.

WARNING

In order not to damage the steering wheel or stee-
ring column, the steering wheel-column foolproofing
devices must be aligned.

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

For an operation requiring the use of a lift, follow the
safety advice (see Vehicle: Towing and lifting) (02A,
Lifting equipment).

2 - Instructions to be followed during the operation

Using a mixture of two incompatible brake fluids in the
brake circuit may give rise to:

- serious risk of leakage due mainly to deterioration of

the cups,

- degradation of the ESP system.

To avoid such risks, only ever use brake fluids which
comply with the RENAULT standard (see Vehicle:
Parts and ingredients for the repairwork
) (04B, Con-
sumables - Products).

Reminder:

- The pipes between the master cylinder, the callipers,

and the hydraulic unit are connected using threaded
unions with a metric thread.

- Therefore, only parts specified in the Parts Catalogue

for this vehicle should be used.

If, during work on the brake system, any damage on
any part is observed, it must be repaired before driving
the vehicle again.

II - CLEANLINESS

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

Protect any bodywork components that risk being da-
maged by brake fluid with a cover.

2 - Instructions to be followed during the operation

To avoid contaminating the brake circuit, do not allow
the brake circuit components to drop on the ground.

Clean around the braking system with BRAKE CLEA-
NER
(see Vehicle: Parts and ingredients for the re-
pairwork
) (04B, Consumables - Products).

III - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

1 - Master cylinder - brake servo

Always replace the master cylinder seals.

Check that the brake servo seal is in place. Replace
the seal if it is damaged.

Always replace the master cylinder - brake servo as-
sembly when the master cylinder leaks into the brake
servo. The brake servo becomes unusable when the
rubber diaphragm is contaminated with brake fluid.

2 - Brake hose

WARNING

Switch off the vehicle ignition so as not to activate
the hydraulic unit solenoid valves when bleeding the
brake circuit.

IMPORTANT

To ensure that the ABS and ESP systems operate
correctly, check that the underbody brake pipes are
clipped in place and are not crossed.

IMPORTANT

To avoid any accident, bring the pistons, brake pads
and brake discs into contact by depressing the
brake pad several times.

WARNING

Prepare for the flow of fluid, and protect the sur-
rounding components.

IMPORTANT

To avoid breaking the connection between the
brake servo pushrod and the brake pedal, check
that the safety clevis pin is locked onto the brake
servo pushrod by tilting it from the top downwards.

WARNING

In order not to damage the brake hose:

- do not tension the hose,

- do not twist the hose,

- check that there is no contact with the surrounding

components.

I - PRECAUTIONS DURING REPAIR

Risks relating to contamination.

a

The hydraulic clutch system is very sensitive to con-
tamination. The risks caused by contamination are:

- impossible to change gears,

- damage to or destruction of the clutch system,

- leaks on the hydraulic circuit.

All the operations on the hydraulic clutch circuit sys-
tem must be carried out under excellent cleanliness
conditions. This ensures that no impurities enter the
hydraulic circuit during the operation.

The cleanliness principles apply to all components
of the hydraulic clutch circuit.

Items causing contamination are:

- metal or plastic swarf,

- fibres:

• cardboard,

• brushes,

• paper,

• clothing,

• cloth,

• dust and particles in the air,

• etc.

Cleaning cloths.

a

Use lint-free cleaning cloths (see Recommended
products for repairwork
) (04B, Consumables -
Products).

Each cloth must only be used once.

There are two types of equipment used to bleed the
clutch circuit:

a

ARC50 via the brake fluid reservoir.

a

Syringe via the bleed hole located on the clutch sla-
ve cylinder.

There are two procedures used to bleed the clutch
circuit:

a

If no parts of the clutch hydraulic circuit are remo-
ved:

- Carry out the bleed operation using the ARC50 via

the brake fluid reservoir or using a new syringe via
the bleed hole located on the clutch slave cylinder.

a

If no parts of the clutch hydraulic circuit are remo-
ved:

- Only carry out the bleed operation using a new sy-

ringe by injecting the brake fluid via the bleed hole
on the clutch slave cylinder.

Consumables required for the repair:

a

Bleed the clutch circuit using approved (see Vehi-
cle: Parts and ingredients for the repairwork
)
brake fluid (04B, consumables - products).

II - PREPARATION STAGE

a

Position the vehicle on a two-post lift (see Vehicle:
Towing and lifting
) (02A, Lifting equipment).

a

Remove the engine undertray.

Essential equipment

brake circuit bleeding device

hydraulic circuit bleed syringe

Note:

- Even the tiniest air bubble in the circuit can

cause faulty operation (pedal failing to return
properly, crunching sound when changing gear,
etc.).

- Incorrect bleeding can lead to incorrect detec-

tion of faults and unnecessary part replace-
ments.

III - BLEED PROCEDURE IF NO PARTS OF THE
HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT ARE REMOVED

1 - Bleed using the ARC50.

a

Keep the clutch pedal in the upper position using a
strap attached to the steering wheel to ensure conti-
nuity of the hydraulic circuit during the bleed opera-
tion.

a

Connect the brake circuit bleeding device (after
having received Renault approval) to the master cy-
linder reservoir (see the instructions for the equip-
ment).

a

Remove the bleed plug from the clutch slave cylin-
der.

a

Connect a transparent pipe to the bleed hole running
to an empty container placed under the bleed hole.

a

Open the bleed screw.

a

Open the circuit between the bleeding device and
the brake fluid reservoir.

a

Let the brake fluid run until all air bubbles have been
released.

a

Stop the bleeding device to dump the pressure in the
clutch circuit.

a

Close the bleed screw.

a

Remove the transparent pipe from the bleed hole.

a

Refit the bleed plug.

a

Top up the brake fluid level in the master cylinder re-
servoir after disconnecting the bleed device.

a

Disengage and engage the clutch quickly around
twenty times.

a

Check that the clutch system is operating correctly.

a

Repeat the bleed operation if necessary.

a

Check the adjustment of the switch. (see 37A, Me-
chanical component controls

IV - BLEED PROCEDURE IF PARTS OF THE
HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT ARE REMOVED.

a

Note:

Take care not to disrupt the adjustment of the
clutch start of travel switch.

Note:

The transparent pipe must remain at the same
height as the master cylinder reservoir to prevent
air from entering inside the clutch circuit.

WARNING

The master cylinder pipe must be disconnected
from its take-off point on the brake fluid reservoir,
to avoid any foreign matter penetrating inside the
brake system hydraulic circuit.

WARNING

Prepare for the flow of fluid and protect the sur-
rounding components.

Note:

Prefill the hydraulic circuit pipe equipped with a
filter.

Position the filter head facing downwards to
ensure that it fills.

Brake servo: Check

37A

There is no “RENAULT” tool to check the braking as-
sistance circuit.

Use a vacuum pump, adapting the end pieces, part
nos. 77 01 349 942 and 77 00 105 874 with a pipe, part
no. 82 00 027 352 or 82 00 376 245.

I - CHECKING THE SEALS

a

When checking the brake servo seal, ensure that
there is a perfect seal between this and the master
cylinder.

If there is a leak in this area, replace the seal
between the master cylinder and the brake servo.

The brake servo seal must be checked on the vehi-
cle. The hydraulic circuit must be in operation.

II - CHECKING THE BRAKE SERVO

a

Connect a vacuum pump directly to the brake servo.

a

Activate the vacuum pump a few times.

a

Check that the vacuum does not fall by more than 33
mbar
in 15 seconds. If it does, the leak may be lo-
cated:

- on the non-return valve seal, in this case change

the non-return valve seal (see 37A, Mechanical
component controls
, Brake servo non-return
valve: Removal - Refitting
, page 37A-4) ,

- on the pushrod membrane; in this case, replace the

brake servo (see 37A, Mechanical component
controls
, Brake servo: Removal - Refitting,
page 37A-7) .

III - CHECKING THE BRAKE SERVO NON-RETURN

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

1 - Advice to be followed before any operation

To ensure that the battery does not run down and to
avoid the risk of the electronic parking brake triggering
erratically, ensure the RENAULT Card is removed.

2 - Control unit

Do not refit a control unit which has been removed to
another vehicle.

Always replace the computer if it falls on the ground.

When replacing the computer, apply the « After repair
procedure » using the diagnostic tool.

3 - Electronic parking brake electric motor

The electronic parking brake electric motor is not
available separately. If the electronic parking brake
motor fails, replace the complete calliper ( « brake cal-
liper - electronic parking brake electric motor » assem-
bly).

If the electronic parking brake does not release (red
warning light on the instrument panel), use the dia-
gnostic tool to identify the fault.

Procedure in the event of a fault relating to the
electronic parking brake electric motor

Remove the bolts (1) from the electronic parking brake
electric motor.

Turn the shaft of the piston clockwise.

Note:

If the configuration is not fully performed, the com-
puter remains in its « factory » configuration.

When the procedure is complete, the computer can
go to « customer » mode.

Note:

Do not work on the front callipers before using the
diagnostic tool.

Note:

The application of this procedure always requires
the complete calliper to be replaced( « brake calli-
per - electronic parking brake electric motor » ).

ABS system: Precautions for repair

38C

I - SAFETY

- If a lift must be used for an operation, respect the sa-
fety instructions (see Vehicle: Towing and lifting)
(02A, Lifting equipment).

- Protect any bodywork components which could be
damaged by brake fluid with covers.

- to ensure there is no risk of sparks, do not place any
metallic objects on the battery.

- Brake fluid is highly corrosive. Carefully clean any
brake fluid spilt on parts of the vehicle.

II - CLEANLINESS

- Clean around the braking system with BRAKE
CLEANER
(see Vehicle: Parts and ingredients for
the repairwork
) (04B, Consumables - Products).

- If a component is being replaced by a new one, do not
remove the new component from its packaging until its
is ready to be fitted onto the vehicle.

III - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

- During an operation which requires the braking circuit
to be opened, position a pedal press on the brake pe-
dal to limit the outflow of brake fluid.

- After any operation on the ABS, it is essential to con-
firm the repair with a road test and a check using the
diagnostic tool.

1 - Yaw speed and lateral acceleration sensor

The sensor must be fitted facing the vehicle's direction
of travel (as shown by the arrow).

Be sure to replace any sensor which has sustained an
impact.

diagnostic tool

WARNING

Prepare for the flow of fluid, and protect the sur-
rounding components.

WARNING

Switch off the vehicle ignition so as not to activate
the hydraulic unit solenoid valves when bleeding the
brake circuit.

WARNING

To ensure that the wheel speed sensor works pro-
perly, do not mark the sensor target on the bearing.

WARNING

In order to prevent irreversible damage to the front
hub bearing:

- Do not loosen or tighten the driveshaft nut when

the wheels are on the ground.

- Do not place the vehicle with its wheels on the

ground when the driveshaft has been loosened or
removed.

IMPORTANT

To avoid breaking the connection between the
brake servo pushrod and the brake pedal, check
that the safety clevis pin is locked onto the brake
servo pushrod by tilting it from the top downwards.
