the thing makes an awful rattling racket, obviously until the oil has circulated.
The original oil is Elf fully synthetic 5W-W40. Is that too thin? Would I be better off using 10W-40W
Where is the rear accessory plug situated? I suspect that my humble 'Expression' does not run to such luxury?Weird...my Koleos has a rear accessory plug
I spoke to a Renault representative with a Koleos today and he showed me the accessory socket which is on the sill of the right hand rear side window facing forward. It is just a typical cigar lighter style socket. He says that if you want to fit a rear facing camera, you dismantle the rear door and there is an opening available through the centre of the Renault Lozenge. The wiring is multiplexed and you cannot connect without the modules from the factory. Alternatively you could remove the trim below the accessory socket and wire to its rear which is 12v demultiplexed. However, he pointed out that the labour involved in doing a neat job of feeding the wire to the door or to an alternative location on the bumper would be very time consuming.Drivers side on the sill of the rear quarter window. Don't worry my wife blew the fuse in the ciggie lighter in ours with a shonky phone charger so we are probably even stevens for functioning accessory sockets!!
Koloelol in for iot'[s 45K service this Friday so we'll see how brazen the dealer is to fix it...
