Problems with the ABS system and brake pedal in the Renault Talisman (built in 2015): Exchange of experiences and possible solutions

Hey guys, I'm having a bit of trouble with my Renault Talisman (built in 2015, petrol engine). The ABS system is totally messed up and the ABS warning light is on. The brake pedal also feels completely different, like it's not responding properly, and the brakes seem really spongy. I've also noticed a warning light in the speedo. Pretty sure it could possibly be a signal fault on the pressure sensor from the brake booster. Have any of you ever had similar problems? How did you get it fixed at the garage and what were your experiences? Every tip is worth its weight in gold! Thanks in advance!

Summary of the thread

A Renault Talisman owner is experiencing issues with the ABS system, indicated by a warning light and a spongy brake pedal. The suspected cause is a signal fault from the brake booster pressure sensor. A similar issue in another Renault model was resolved by correctly bleeding the brake system. The suggested solution is to visit a garage, explain the problem in detail, and inquire about the mechanics' experience with Renault models, focusing on checking the pressure sensor for potential signal errors.

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2013 Renault Mégane, but I only have a little experience with cars, so I went to my local garage. The problem for me was that the brake system was bled incorrectly. It cost 90 euros, but since then everything has been running smoothly again. To help you better, can you please give me more details about your car? How many kilometers have you driven and when was the last service?

Hi, thanks for the tip! My Renault has 19312 kilometers on the clock so far and was last serviced about six months ago. I hope it really is just something to do with the brake system. 90 euros wouldn't be a problem, as long as the car runs smoothly again. What is your tip for me when I go to the garage?

Hey, with the mileage and service interval, chances are good that it could just be something with the brake system. When you take the car to the garage, just explain the problem as best you can. It also doesn't hurt to ask if they can check the pressure sensor on the brake booster. Perhaps the cause is actually just a signal error. Another tip: try to find out if the workshop has experience with Renault models. Some cars have special brake systems that require special knowledge to repair. I wish you the best of luck and hope that your Renault gets back on track quickly. Stay relaxed and don't be put off asking questions. After all, it's your car and your safety.

Hi and thanks again for your advice! I will certainly make sure to give the mechanics as much detail as possible and also ask about their experience with Renault models. It would be really great if it's just the braking system and could be easily fixed. I really appreciate your help and will report back how it went. Thanks again and stay well!
