is it normal for Renault Clio V (2019-Present) to have a delayed engagement when shifting

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts.
• Disconnect the vehicle's battery to prevent any electrical issues during the repair.

2. Check and Replace Transmission Fluid

• Remove the transmission fluid dipstick and check the fluid level.
• If low, add the recommended transmission fluid type (e.g., Renault DCTF, check owner’s manual for specifics).
• If fluid is contaminated or burnt, drain the transmission fluid using a drain pan.
• Replace the fluid with fresh transmission fluid, ensuring it meets manufacturer specifications.
• Recheck the fluid level after refilling.

3. Inspect and Replace Transmission Filter (if applicable)

• Remove the transmission pan (if accessible) using a socket set.
• Take out the old filter and replace it with a new one.
• Clean the transmission pan and replace the gasket if necessary.
• Reinstall the pan and tighten the bolts to the specified torque (usually around 10 Nm, refer to service manual for specifics).

4. Test Transmission Solenoids

• Locate the transmission solenoids and disconnect the wiring harness.
• Use a multimeter to test the resistance of each solenoid; compare with specifications from the service manual.
• If readings are out of range, replace the faulty solenoids with new ones.

5. Reassemble and Reconnect

• Reconnect any components that were removed during the inspection and repair.
• Reconnect the battery and ensure all electrical connections are secure.
