Talisman Sun Blind Failure

Hi, I've got a 2015 Renault Talisman diesel. The sun blind is stuck and won't retract. My mechanic found an error suggesting a motor fault. Has anyone else had sun visor issues? Any advice before I spend a lot on repairs?

Hey! Funny you should mention the sun blind. I've got a Talisman myself, and I had almost the EXACT same problem last year. The sun visor just wouldn't budge. Was driving me nuts! Did you notice any weird noises coming from it before it completely died?

Thanks! Now that you mention it, there was a whirring sound from the sun blind area in the weeks before it failed. It was subtle, but it seems like it was a sign. Did you have that noise too?

Yep, the whirring is a dead giveaway! Sounds like the motor's gone kaput, just like mine did. I just took it to the workshop to save myself a headache. If the error code points to the motor, you're probably looking at a similar fix. Good luck!

Thanks so much for confirming my suspicions. It seems a workshop visit is unavoidable. The mechanic quoted 330€ for the repair, which seems reasonable. I'll go ahead with it and hope that fixes it for good. Thanks again!
