Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 14 years old and 192,000 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
Most 2012 Fluences in Europe use the 1.5 dCi diesel on a Megane-derived platform; the manual diesel is economical and comfortable but can be sensitive to short-trip urban use. Common weak points you might see on a 14-year-old example are DPF/EGR clogging, turbo issues and clutch/dual-mass flywheel wear on manuals — check service history for timing-belt changes too, as that is essential on the diesel engine.
- Timing-belt replacement history and invoice (failure = major engine damage on many Renault diesels).
- Signs of DPF/EGR problems: black smoke, long periods of heavy soot, or a limp mode history; look for frequent short-trip use that prevents regeneration.
- Clutch and dual-mass flywheel condition (manual): slipping, judder or noisy release can indicate costly work.
- Turbocharger and intercooler hoses: shaft play, oil leaks or boost hose cracks.
- Rear subframe/underbody and rear-arch corrosion and suspension bush wear (age-related rust on Irish roads).
