How to Reset the Maintenance Message on the Renault Clio III

Model: Renault Clio MK 3, Clio 3, Clio III - Years 2005-2013
Part: Warning light – error code

If the wrench symbol flashes under the central display of the instrument cluster, at the bottom left, it means it is time for maintenance either due to mileage reached or time elapsed: it is important to adhere to this even if the expected mileage has not been reached, as the oil tends to lose its viscosity characteristics over time; that said, the reset is performed manually using the side buttons on the windscreen wiper control lever; once the ignition is on, press the side arrows to scroll through the menu options until you reach the maintenance message, then hold it down until the message starts to flash and the new mileage interval appears.

How to Bleed the Clutch on a Renault Clio?

To bleed the clutch on a Renault Clio, open the bonnet to access the components located in the engine bay: here, you will need to undo the screws that secure the battery in its housing, the intake manifold, and the coolant reservoir. This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
