    There is likely a fuel cut on the pump or ECU caused by the accident. The older kangoo's had a switch under the bonnet to reset it. I'm not certain about the new models though.

    The 1.5dci's have their moments. The Delphi fuel system is prone to pump wear/failure especially if less then perfect diesel is ever used.

    The renaults also require a specific Renault spec oil(RN710).

    Other then that, the Kangoo was normally a pretty strong van.
