Congrats @Martin M !

Get well soon @Danie!

Hi @Peterkk That's a serious list of errors, but to me they all point in the same direction: Low or no Voltage being supplied to the various components of the car. My first recommendations: 1. Check the battery voltage and specifically the connection terminals. 2. Do a thorough check of all grounding points. Negative terminal of the battery should be connected to the chassis properly, but there are other grounding wires that will connect to the chassis body. Inspect engine bay and underneath for any loose grounding wires. Some other questions: 1. Did this occur suddenly? Was the car involved in an accident, flooding, or what is the history of the car that brought you to this problem (did you purchase it recently for example?) 2. A typical "mechanical mechanic" won't be able to troubleshoot this. You need to either take it to a Renault dealer or someone who is used to dealing with French cars. A good car diagnostic shop could also do it, but they might not want to touch it because a Renault Safrane is quite rare in this country. If this problem suddenly appeared, then i am inclined to believe there is just an issue of loose grounding or battery terminals. A more worst case scenario is your car ECU/ECM that failed (as this unit controls most of the car's electronics). It does not happen often, but it is possible. If there has been water damage or something of that sort, then it becomes definitely a possibility.

Goodmorning @Ana I hope you are well! Unfortunately, this is a Fewbie level drive and your current level still shows Newbie, so we won't be able to accommodate you. If you like to request your promotion, you can do so by heading over to below link: Request Your Promotion Once registered, the various marshals will review it, and decision will be taken within 5-10 days. Thank you!

Congratulations @Jessica Lambert !

From what i can see: GCC model is a 3.0 Turbocharged V6 and churns out a lot of power. Very impressive. I think other markets like China have a Hybrid model as well with 2.0l (electric motor+combustible engine). I wonder if these can be purchased on the grey market here.

Hi @Hanan ! I’d love to see the Tank in action and have heard generally good things about it. When it comes to Chinese made off-road vehicles we have Haval and BAIC off-roading with us on a regular basis in our off-road club and they are doing great. Feel free to join us in the off-road club or book one of our 1-on-1 desert driving masterclass, which would allow you to get personal guidance and the time to test all functionalities under the supervision and guidance of an expert.

Oops I’ll fix that 😜

Well done @Zahid Sharif !

This was really a splendid morning out with wonderful people. Pink Rock was quite busy, but at all times @Emanuelkept us safe by keeping enough distance from the other convoys, and showcasing a smooth flow and pace, which meant hardly any refusals or stucks. Looking forward doing this again! Hats off again to @Zsolt for completing the full drive while in second gear and limited to 3krpm. That's a stunning achievement and we would never have noticed that something was wrong with the car. @Andrei S super sweeping and @essam ibrahim always ready with a smile. What a great team. See you all in the sand again.
