VAG-COM for renault?

[Scougar]

Hi guys :)

Much like there is the software called VAG-COM for VW's/Audi etc, can you get a cable and software for renault clio's (to read fault codes, reset stuff etc)?

p.s. Just bought a vag-com cable on ebay to diagnose auto transmission fault with my spare car (mk3 golf 1.8 gl auto), hence why wondering about it for clio's :)

yeah renault use a RX25 i think for fault codes but having never used one not sure of its ability's.

Yup, I see that, but that's a generic setup. Is there a specific setup that has been developed? (i.e. Nissan's Consult, or the VAG-COM stuff by ross-tech?).

For example, rather than just reading and clearing fault codes, the vag-com stuff allows you to setup your alarm, central locking preferences, engine stuff, even airbag preferences (Although not recommended to play with!)).

that looks very handy that but does it work?

nothing will work with a Mk1 Clio other whan the equipment that Renault have, such as the XR25 and the Clip system

all the universal ones use OBD II which the Mk1 Clio isnt, its a system unique to itself

garage used one that plugged in to the footwell fusebox somewhere

listed off what was wrong (turned out to be a loose connection on the TPS)
