Common Problems: RENAULT KADJAR
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- 1.2 TCe Oil Consumption (H5F Engine)(Serious)
The early 1.2 TCe engine can burn oil heavily and, if neglected, suffer compression loss or major engine damage. This was a significant issue for early Kadjars before the 1.3 TCe engine was introduced.
- EDC Gearbox Shudder and Hesitation(Serious)
The dual-clutch automatic can feel hesitant, jerky, or shudder at low speed, particularly in UK stop-start traffic. It may require software updates or expensive hardware repairs.
