When dealing with the starter motor of your Renault Trafic, particularly models from 2001 to 2014, several issues can emerge that might impair your vehicle's ability to start. Over my 15 years as a master tech mechanic, I've seen a variety of symptoms that could indicate a failing starter motor in these specific van models.
If you’re experiencing trouble with your Renault Trafic’s starter motor, you might notice several telltale signs. These include a clicking sound when turning the key, the engine not turning over, or intermittent issues with starting the van. Such symptoms often stem from underlying issues that need immediate attention.
The starter motor troubles in a Renault Trafic can be attributed to a few common sources:
- Electrical connections that have become loose or corroded over time
- A faulty or aging motor that doesn't engage correctly
- Wear and tear on components like the solenoid or the motor itself
Repairing a starter motor involves several steps which include diagnosing the problem accurately, which may require a professional mechanic's diagnosis. Typically, the process may involve either replacing the faulty motor, repairing electrical connections, or replacing worn-out components. The complexity of the repair can vary, making it sometimes a costly and time-consuming issue.
Given the age of the 2001 to 2014 Renault Trafic models, you might find that repair costs for critical components like the starter motor can accumulate quickly.

Yes, you can indeed sell your financed van with vandervan even if it's under a Hire Purchase (HP) or Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) agreement.
If you decide to sell your financed van, the initial step is to obtain a 'settlement figure' from your lender, which you can usually find in a settlement letter. Following that, get a valuation for your van.
Our team will walk you through the settlement process.

By selling your van through our service, you join a robust network of over 4,000 verified dealers.
This can often result in a more favourable price compared to part exchange, where you might find yourself confined to a single dealer’s assessment, which might not accurately represent the real market value of your van.
Part exchanges often result in less favourable outcomes for sellers, particularly if the dealer is not intending to retail your van and plans to pass it along instead.

Fortunately, we buy any van even if they do not have a logbook, although it is advantageous if you have a full V5 Logbook, or at least the green New Keeper Slip.
It makes it tougher to sell to our network of 4000+ verified dealers, as we have to wait for the DVLA to process a V62 application (usually 6 weeks), so our valuations reflect the delay in sale and storage costs while rectifying missing V5 logbooks.
