Renault Kadjar problems (2015–2022)

All 4 engines and 1 gearbox of the Renault Kadjar that we have documented have high or critical severity faults: the 1.2 TCe, the 1.6 dCi, the EDC gearbox, the 1.3 TCe and the 1.5 dCi. The safest option is the 1.5 dCi in its 1.5 dCi Energy Euro 6 with NOx trap (90 and 110 hp, 2015-2018) version, with a «Buy» verdict.[1][2][3]

Outside the engine: The Kadjar, built in Palencia between 2015 and 2022, earned 5 stars in Euro NCAP in 2015. Outside the engine it had two official recalls: a possible fault with the side curtain airbags in cars built January-June 2015, and a defect in the rear door lock affecting around 30,000 cars (2015-2018). Owner testimonies also describe suspension noises and freezes of the R-Link multimedia system, without official confirmation.[4][5][6][7][8]

    It carries the piston ring sealing defect that can end in oil consumption and engine failure. Only worth considering with on-time maintenance invoices, proof of reprogramming or of a ring or engine replacement, good compression and normal oil consumption; Renault's assistance was limited to cars under 10 years old or 100,000 km.[12][13][14]

    According to L'argus, the defect affects engines built up to 11 May 2016 and later production carries the fix; we have not found independent sources documenting the same problem afterwards. As with any turbo engine, keep an eye on the oil level.[12][15]

Faults that affect the Kadjar

  1. Critical severityFrequency: CommonLubricationExcessive oil consumption and engine failure1.2 TCe and 1.2 DIG-T engines built from 2012 to mid-2016 can burn more than 1 litre of oil per 1,000 km because the piston rings do not seal properly; carbon damages the valves and the engine can fail. There was no recall: the dealer network reprograms and replaces rings or the engine.Repair: €5,000–€10,000
  2. High severityFrequency: OccasionalTimingTiming chain stretch and breakageThe 1.2 TCe chain has no scheduled replacement, but in engines that burn oil the low level makes the camshaft phaser vibrate and the chain stretches until it becomes noisy or breaks. The dealer network replaces the tensioner if compression is good; if not, the short block or the engine.

Faults that affect the Kadjar

  1. High severityFrequency: CommonTurboPremature turbocharger failure or breakageThe 1.6 dCi turbo fails fairly often, sometimes at low mileage: fiches-auto documents failures between 23,000 and 113,000 km in the Kadjar, Qashqai II, X-Trail III and Espace V, with loss of power and, in several cases, the manufacturer refusing to cover the cost out of warranty.Repair (garage): €3,000
  2. High severityFrequency: OccasionalTimingOil leak from the timing chain coverThe 1.6 dCi uses a timing chain, not a belt, but several Kadjar and Espace V owners describe oil leaks around the chain cover or casing, in some cases serious enough to require removing part of the engine.
  3. Medium severityFrequency: CommonEmissions controlBlocked or failed EGR valveThe 1.6 dCi EGR valve gets dirty and can stick or stop sealing, especially in cars used around town. Fiches-auto flags it as one of the most repeated defects in the Renault Espace V and documents a case of double replacement in a Kadjar (at 85,000 km and again at 95,000 km).Repair (garage): €250–€1,000
  4. Medium severityFrequency: OccasionalEmissions controlBlocked diesel particulate filter (DPF)In urban and short-journey use the 1.6 dCi DPF can block up early: fiches-auto records a case in an X-Trail III at only 10,000 km and 4 months. A software adjustment on the first Kadjar units (up to July 2015) also affected NOx emissions management.Repair (garage): €600–€1,500
  5. Medium severityFrequency: OccasionalInjectionInjector failuresThe 1.6 dCi injectors can fail individually or, in more serious cases, several at once: fiches-auto documents 6 cases in the Espace V and one failed injector with loss of power on the motorway in a Kadjar.Repair (garage): €250–€1,700

Verdict for the versions it uses

  • EDC6 (6-speed: DC4 dry or DW6 wet)since 2010 · DC4, DW6

    With caution

    It is the version with the most documented complaints of clutch wear, low-speed judder and complete failures, especially in its dry-clutch variant (DC4); before buying, check the gearbox history and take a demanding test drive both cold and warm.[20][21]

  • EDC7 (7-speed, wet clutch, DW5)since 2016 · DW5

    With caution

    The specialist press praises its smoothness compared with the EDC6, but it is not free of faults: Renault had to update the calibration of the first Mégane IV GT cars by software because of a gearbox overheating that increased the risk of an accident. Also check the vehicle's history and that there are no stored gearbox warnings.[21][22]

Faults that affect the Kadjar

  1. High severityFrequency: OccasionalTransmissionEDC gearbox overheating and safety neutralYes: several owners document that the EDC gearbox can drop into neutral or lose its gears when it overheats under sustained load, and Renault even updated the EDC7 (DW5) gearbox software of the first Mégane IV GT cars because the overheating increased the risk of an accident.Repair (garage): €2,100
  2. High severityFrequency: OccasionalElectronicsControl electronics fault: "check gearbox" warning and loss of gearsYes: a fault in the sensors or switches that tell the control unit the position of each clutch (the "manocontact") can make the EDC gearbox lose the gears associated with one of the two clutches, for example only the even gears or only reverse, with a "check gearbox" warning on the dashboard.
  3. Medium severityFrequency: CommonClutchPremature dry clutch wear and low-speed judder (EDC6/DC4)Yes: the dry-clutch EDC6 (DC4) is known for juddering and running roughly at low speed, and its clutch wears out sooner than one in a wet gearbox; several owners document clutch and complete gearbox replacements across different Renault models since 2010.
  4. High severityFrequency: RareLubricationOil leak from the EDC output shaft sealOne documented case (Renault Captur 1.2 TCe 120, failure at 48,000 km) describes an oil leak from the output shaft seal ("joint spy") of the EDC gearbox that ended in a complete automatic gearbox failure; we have not found other cases with the same exact diagnosis.

Faults that affect the Kadjar

  1. High severityFrequency: OccasionalTurboTurbo actuator (wastegate) faultOn 1.3 TCe/DIG-T engines built up to 19 June 2020, the clip that holds the turbo wastegate valve rod may be missing or come loose, causing a loss of power with the injection warning light on. If the rod is left with too much play, the whole turbo has to be replaced.Repair (garage): €400–€700
  2. High severityFrequency: OccasionalFuelBlown fuel pump fuseOn the Renault Captur II and Clio V with the 1.3 TCe engine, a 20-amp fuse can blow and leave the car without an engine. According to L'argus, in April 2021 this fault still had no factory fix; the official service centre's diagnosis includes checking, and sometimes replacing, the catalytic converter.
  3. Medium severityFrequency: OccasionalInjectionUnstable idle, juddering and stalling caused by the injectorsOn 1.3 TCe/DIG-T engines built before April 2019, the injector seal may be missing or its housing incorrectly sized, which causes an unstable idle, juddering and stalling. Renault-Nissan corrected it at the factory in 2019; the repair involves replacing injectors or, in serious cases, the cylinder head.
  4. Medium severityFrequency: OccasionalEmissions controlEmissions warning light on because of a calibration faultA fault in the injection calibration can turn on the emissions warning light or the engine fault light on 1.3 TCe/DIG-T engines from 2018-2020. Renault-Nissan fixes it by reprogramming the control unit; production after 2019-2020 already includes the corrected calibration.Repair: €100
  5. Medium severityFrequency: OccasionalTimingTiming phaser faultA fault in the camshaft phaser can turn on the injection warning light and sometimes cause a loss of power in the 1.3 TCe/DIG-T. Renault-Nissan corrected it at the factory in February 2021; the repair involves checking the solenoid valves and, if necessary, replacing oil control valves.

    There are no documented recurring serious faults: there are isolated cases of injectors and turbo failures that are much rarer than in earlier generations. On 2015 Captur and Kadjar models, check that the emissions campaign has been carried out.[1][2][3]

  • 1.5 Blue dCi with SCR and AdBlue (85, 95, 100 and 115 hp, from 2018)since 2018 · 85–115 hp · K9K 872, K9K 873, K9K 874

    With caution

    There is still little long-term data. Faults in the AdBlue system (pump, tank, injector) and emissions warnings with no real fault have been documented, and Caradisiac considers the earlier dCi 110 somewhat more reliable than the Blue dCi 115.[2][27][28]

Faults that affect the Kadjar

Only those that affect the versions and years that this car used. The 1.5 dCi has 8 documented faults in total.

  1. High severityFrequency: OccasionalTurboPremature turbo failure and intake hoses that come looseThe turbo on the 105 and 110 hp 1.5 dCi can fail early: Caradisiac documents it on the Clio III, Scénic III and Qashqai II, sometimes before 80,000 km. More common and cheaper is for a turbo intake hose to come loose or burst and the engine to lose power.
  2. Medium severityFrequency: OccasionalClutchPremature dual-mass flywheel failure and clutch problemsThe 105 and 110 hp 1.5 dCi engines can break the dual-mass flywheel early, sometimes before 40,000 km. It warns you with vibrations at idle and metallic noises, and forces you to replace the clutch and flywheel assembly.Repair (garage): €700–€1,300
  3. Medium severityFrequency: OccasionalInjectionInjector and injector seal failuresThe 1.5 dCi injectors, or their seals, can fail early, especially on the 110 hp, causing rough running, jerking or hard starting. Replacing the affected injector is usually enough; Caradisiac still reports cases on the Kadjar and Duster II.
  4. Medium severityFrequency: OccasionalEmissions controlNOx trap and AdBlue system on the Euro 6 1.5 dCiThe 2015 Euro 6b 1.5 dCi engines had a badly calibrated NOx trap that Renault corrected with recall campaigns. On the Blue dCi (from 2018), the AdBlue pump, tank or injector can fail, with an emissions warning and even the car locked out with a full tank.

All 4 engines and 1 gearbox of the Renault Kadjar that we have documented have high or critical severity faults: the 1.2 TCe, the 1.6 dCi, the EDC gearbox, the 1.3 TCe and the 1.5 dCi. The safest option is the 1.5 dCi in its 1.5 dCi Energy Euro 6 with NOx trap (90 and 110 hp, 2015-2018) version, with a «Buy» verdict. The Kadjar, built in Palencia between 2015 and 2022, earned 5 stars in Euro NCAP in 2015. Outside the engine it had two official recalls: a possible fault with the side curtain airbags in cars built January-June 2015, and a defect in the rear door lock affecting around 30,000 cars (2015-2018). Owner testimonies also describe suspension noises and freezes of the R-Link multimedia system, without official confirmation.

Which Renault Kadjar engine is the most reliable?

Among the 4 engines and 1 gearbox we have documented, the safest option is the 1.5 dCi in its 1.5 dCi Energy Euro 6 with NOx trap (90 and 110 hp, 2015-2018) version, with a «Buy» verdict. There are no documented recurring serious faults: there are isolated cases of injectors and turbo failures that are much rarer than in earlier generations. On 2015 Captur and Kadjar models, check that the emissions campaign has been carried out.[1][2][3]

What problems does the Renault Kadjar have apart from the engine?

The Kadjar, built in Palencia between 2015 and 2022, earned 5 stars in Euro NCAP in 2015. Outside the engine it had two official recalls: a possible fault with the side curtain airbags in cars built January-June 2015, and a defect in the rear door lock affecting around 30,000 cars (2015-2018). Owner testimonies also describe suspension noises and freezes of the R-Link multimedia system, without official confirmation. The most important documented faults are: rear door lock fault that let children open the doors while driving (airbags and safety, critical severity), recall for the side airbags and the fuel filler neck fixing (2015 cars) (airbags and safety, critical severity), noise and premature wear of the front suspension (suspension, medium severity) and r-Link multimedia system freezes and false driver assistance warnings (electronics and infotainment, medium severity).[4][5][6][7][8]

What faults does the Renault Kadjar have?

The most important by severity and frequency, on the engines we have documented, are: excessive oil consumption and engine failure (1.2 TCe, critical severity), premature turbocharger failure or breakage (1.6 dCi, high severity), timing chain stretch and breakage (1.2 TCe, high severity), oil leak from the timing chain cover (1.6 dCi, high severity) and EDC gearbox overheating and safety neutral (EDC, high severity).

What is the best year to buy a Renault Kadjar?

According to our rating by year, the best is 2022 (7.6/10); the worst rated is 2015 (5.8/10). Each year's rating counts only the engines sold that year and the faults that affect those units: open each year to see what changes.

Does the Renault Kadjar have recalls?

Yes: we have documented 2 campaigns for the Renault Kadjar, such as replacement of the rear door lock because of the risk of children opening the doors while moving (2020). Check with your VIN at the official service centre whether yours has been done.[7]
