Hi,

today, after I had parked the car for less than an hour I went to drive off and all the dashboard lights had gone. No speedo or fuel guage either. It is an automatic so the bit that shows you which gear you are in was not visible either. i drove a short way, luckily able to remember where reverse and drive were!, parked. When I turned ignition key to re-start it all the lights, speedo etc were back. What was that all about then? Should I be thinking of getting a new car? It is a W reg (2000) 1.6 Renault Scenic.

thanks for any advice.
Ellie :cool:
