Renault Scenic Dyn DCI 106 (2007)
2007 Renault Scenic Dyn DCI 106
CarHunch analysed 112 real MOT records for the 2007 Renault Scenic Dyn DCI 106. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2007 Renault Scenic DCI is a real reliability concern—only 62% pass first time against the UK average of 80%, meaning nearly 4 in 10 fail their MOT. The good news is that dangerous defects are completely absent from this cohort, so you're not looking at safety-critical failures, just wear and tear issues that need fixing.
At 113,000 miles median, these vehicles are well-used, and the 0.88 average failures per car tells you most will need some work when they test. Before buying one, get a thorough pre-purchase inspection focused on the common failure points (likely suspension, emissions, and braking given this generation's history), and factor in repair costs as a genuine ownership expense rather than an exception.
What to check before buying a 2007 Renault Scenic Dyn DCI 106
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
