If you're experiencing issues with your Renault Trafic's engine, you're not alone. The Renault Trafic, particularly models from 2014 onwards, can sometimes present complex engine problems that might leave owners facing tough decisions regarding repairs. As a seasoned mechanic with 15 years in the field, I've seen a range of issues that could lead you to consider a reconditioned engine.
The key symptoms that signal engine trouble in a Renault Trafic can include unusual noises, a decrease in power, excessive oil consumption, or an increase in exhaust emissions. These issues typically stem from wear and tear over time, but can also be aggravated by factors such as irregular maintenance or even just bad luck with components.
Potential causes are often rooted in the aging of critical engine parts like the timing belt, water pump, or the turbocharger. In more severe cases, it may involve deeper engine components like the head gasket or pistons.
Repairing or opting for a reconditioned engine involves several detailed steps. This usually starts with a thorough diagnosis to pinpoint exact issues, followed by the disassembly of the engine. Damaged parts are replaced, and everything is carefully reassembled and tested to ensure everything runs smoothly.
However, this process can be both time-consuming and costly, depending on the extent of the damage and parts required.
Given the complexities and potential costs associated with repairing or replacing your Renault Trafic’s engine, you might wonder if it's worth the hassle. Have you considered simply selling your van?

The simplicity of this process can save you from the uncertainties and downtime associated with significant vehicle repairs.

By selling your van through our service, you join a robust network of over 4,000 verified dealers.
This can often result in a more favourable price compared to part exchange, where you might find yourself confined to a single dealer’s assessment, which might not accurately represent the real market value of your van.
Part exchanges often result in less favourable outcomes for sellers, particularly if the dealer is not intending to retail your van and plans to pass it along instead.

Fortunately, we buy any van even if they do not have a logbook, although it is advantageous if you have a full V5 Logbook, or at least the green New Keeper Slip.
It makes it tougher to sell to our network of 4000+ verified dealers, as we have to wait for the DVLA to process a V62 application (usually 6 weeks), so our valuations reflect the delay in sale and storage costs while rectifying missing V5 logbooks.
