Laguna cutting out

fguinan · 2006-12-19 09:27:29

Hi - I don't know much about engines - my 2000 Laguna cut out twice while i was driving yesterday, once sitting idling at traffic lights and then while driving along at about 40 mph:confused: . Obviously i'll have to bring it into a garage to be fixed but i just wanted an idea of what could be wrong with it....... Thanks…

Could be a coil, these are a known weak point on this engine. If one fails it will result in lumpy running and stalling. IIRC 4 coils are about 250 quid fitted from a Renault dealer.
