Renault cars attract motorists by their affordability, comfort and reliability. But like any machinery, the car periodically needs to be repaired. There are so many models of Renault that when you visit a spare parts store your eyes are confused by what part to buy so that it would fit exactly.
How to choose parts for Renault
In order to maintain your car in good working order, you should periodically undergo maintenance, change defective parts and consumables. And so that the choice of a spare part is not tedious for the car owner, you should adhere to certain rules:
- before proceeding to the selection of parts, it is best to consult with a specialist, who will tell you exactly what element should be used and where it is better to buy it;
- It is desirable to give preference to original products. If you choose analogs, you should evaluate the reliability of the seller;
- when buying a part, you should specify the possibility to return or exchange the product if it does not fit;
- It is desirable to have a warranty on the part;
- Do not buy a counterfeit or previously used part, because the quality of such products can be very questionable.
How to choose a part according to the car brand and model
When selecting a part in the store, according to the make and model, you should tell the seller the following characteristics:
- car brand. In this case it is Renault;
- car model. Currently, there are 48 different models of Renault and for each of them there are different parts;
- modification;
- year of manufacture of the car;
- type of engine and its volume;
- type of transmission.
All these data can be found in the documentation of the car. They are contained in the vehicle's passport and registration certificate.
How do I know the part number (code) of a Renault?
Another good way to find the right part is to tell the store number or article number, which can be found on the part itself. If it is not the first time the part has been replaced, you may have the box and accompanying documents, in which you can also find the part number. Perhaps the service center can tell you the part number.
But it is worth noting that on older parts, discontinued from production, the article code can no longer be found, so you will have to use another method when selecting the product.
What can be found out with the help of the VIN number?
VIN number is a certain identifier of the car, which carries a lot of valuable information. With its help, you can easily find the right part in the store.
So, the VIN code contains such information as:
- car brand and model
- manufacturer;
- date of manufacture;
- engine type;
- body type;
- other information.
The VIN number can be found on the car body, engine and in the documents.
What parts are better: analog or original?
Original spare parts are the parts of which the car is actually made. Their distinctive feature is the fact that the car manufacturer is responsible for their quality. They may be produced at various plants and in different countries, but during their manufacture all technologies are strictly observed. The requirements for such products are the highest.
Non-original spare parts can also be manufactured in compliance with all technologies, but they are often made from cheaper materials, and the requirements for quality standards may be lower.
Of course, the original parts are much better than the analogous ones, as the car owner can be sure of their quality. As long as the car is under warranty, it is better to give preference to such parts. After the expiration of the warranty period, you can use analog options.
How to distinguish the original Renault parts from the analog ones?
Non-original parts, as a rule, can be distinguished from the original. You should pay attention to the packaging, in which the part is sold. Original Renault parts always have the company logo, markings, and the manufacturer displays a hologram on the packaging.
Many counterparts have France as the producing country, but often the original parts are made in other countries. In addition, it is worth paying attention to the cost of the product. Original parts are usually more expensive than analogues, so if the price of the part is suspiciously low, you should think about its quality.
What is an OEM number?
OEM number is the original number of the part applied to the surface of the part, which then will be used to assemble the car. Due to this number you can choose a spare part in the store with the help of special catalogs.
Thus, the selection of spare parts for Renault cars - it is quite simple, you just need to remember all the nuances when choosing parts.
