  • Brake force only weak, loud squeaking, rim gets hot

    Hello. I have a big problem with my Twingo ( CO6, Built 95, 1.2, 40kw ). My cousin, who is well acquainted with cars, recently renewed my brake pads and brake discs. Now I have quite a problem with the brakes, which means I no longer dare to ride with my car…. So, the symptoms are: – poor braking performance – brake pedal gets hard while driving, and braking hardly possible – brake pads seem to rub permanently on the disc (can’t anymore really accelerate this and when I go down from the gas quickly drops off ) – loud squeaking / whistle – rim gets super hot – touch already after a short ride no more possible ( right side ,ehr than left ) – after the ride bad smell in the bike area My cousin has tested the vacuum, was also so far i.o…. but now he doesn’t know any more . Can it be the brake power amplifier ? And if, how can I check this ? Or what else can it be, and What can I do? I’m completely perplexed and don’t know anyone who can help me anymore… and I’m missing the money for the workshop right now. Would you like to give me tips!

  • Twingo brake: rear axle overbraked

    Hi, everybody, I changed the front brake pads and discs at my Twingo EZ12/96 today. In the subsequent test drive and a few brave brakings I had to notice with horror that the brakes at the HA block before the ABS starts to regulate at the VA. I know that the ABS only works at the VA anyway, but I always thought that the braking effect at the HA is so weak that it can’t come to an overbrake. Everything else w were of the vehicle manufacturer also grossly negligent!! Has anyone ever had this problem with their Twingo, and is there possibly a “adjustment screw” through which you can adjust the braking force at the HA? Thank you for your help!

  • Brake drum does not stop

    Servus people, Today I ask on behalf of a Kumepl, about his Twingo. Short and painless, one tried already with the hammer to solve the drum but nothing. Furthermore, the handbrake is lomelig, so it has no train anymore. KM is unknown to me so far build year should be from 94. I hope you know me a quick advice.

  • Twingo 3 Bauj. 2019 locks off at 140km/h!?

    Hello, with our new Twingo Chick (71 hp and 151 km/h maximum speed) the top speed is over at 140 km/h. Usually my wife drives the car in the city, but this week I used it to work on the highway and I noticed that it accelerates relatively quickly up to 130/140 km/h, but at 140 km/h, although you can still get through the accelerator, it’s over. It feels like the car no longer has any gas. or you have set the cruise control to 140km/h. Even if you drive downhill, it doesn’t get faster and actually keeps the 140km/h constant. The car has now about 3500km down and has been driven from Krefeld to Munich and back, so that I assume that it has thus entered!? Has someone already had the same experiences, or does someone know if this can be normal, because my last cars were own according to Tachoanzeige. ch always faster than the indication in the vehicle license. Greetings

  • Twingo axle body

    have just filled up my tire pressure, but the engine simply went out (the compressor was connected to the cigarette lighter). my stepfather meant the immobilizer would not solve properly. before, however, it was still established that the oil level is very low. is dependent on the car, since I live at the ar… the world!! who can help me????

  • 1.2 16v (D4f) starts badly

    Hello my dear friends, I have the problem that my dear little Twingo c06 1.2 16v (D4f) bj 2002 and 83k km doesn’t start properly anymore. After I took down the suction bridge to clean the throttle flap and change the seals, it starts badly now. It’s not that I don’t know about it, have done this over 4 times already and that without problems. This one time I was in stress now and had no nerve anymore, then it just made it a little fast. m he jumps at the first start lake very often bad and in the back it smokes briefly still in white (think about constantly turning and injecting halt). Directly afterwards he jumps always without problems. But if it is again a few hours, it is again like that. Sometimes he jumps directly, tries to catch the stationary gas and runs normal. Driving he does without problems and he also loses no liquid. Increased sprite consumption he also does not really have. Sometimes I hear zmd from exhaust that e r didn’t have any real stand gas and something fluctuated. Could be due to MAP sensor, BUT !!! I did not have any error memory, was already read Changed/made: – OT-Geber – Starter (was already half dead) – an injection nozzle (plug was accidentally broken by me) – throttle valve cleaned – air temperature probe cleaned – map sensor cleaned – new air filter – coolant temperature sensor changed Hope you can help me to reach the life span of my twingos many daaaank

  • Twingo 1.2 bought…

    Hello, my granddaughter has bought a Renault Twingo 1.2 Facelift, used…Mod. 2012,120000 Km for 3500 Euro. TÜV was only made, everything in the green area…brakes were renewed (covers), maintenance and “apparently” also the belt renewed, would there be an expensive repair or? So if it has to be renewed I mean.. Otherwise everything works as it should, what do you think about this purchase?
