We bought a 2015 Twingo 2 months ago. On Friday while driving slowly in heavy traffic the clutch seemed to fail - the car started jumping forward with the clutch depressed and then stalled.
Got the car parked safely and contacted dealer who was very unhelpful. After 20 mins started the car and drove home carefully but noticed that when stopped at junctions/roundabouts the car was inching forward unless the footbrake was applied (clutch pedal fully depressed). A local mechanic who I trust thinks I will need to replace the clutch but the local Renault garage has quoted me €2000+for the job. Currently waiting for estimates from local mechanics. Has anyone had similar issues with clutch / gearbox.
Model is 0.9 TCE Dynamique Energy
