Tell us the Renault model and build year and what is damaged.
The glass
What a Renault windscreen usually carries
Before we quote a Renault, we work out what is actually in the glass. On current Renault models that usually means rain sensor and acoustic glass on some models.
Behind the mirror sits a single forward-facing camera mounted behind the glass, just ahead of the mirror, feeding Active Emergency Braking. The windscreen has to carry the right bracket and a clear optical zone in front of the lens, and the camera is recalibrated once the new glass is bonded in.
Renault's vans are common working vehicles in Sydney, and we fit those on site at depots as readily as passenger cars.
Driver assistance
Active Emergency Braking and why calibration matters
Active Emergency Braking reads the road through the windscreen, so replacing the glass moves the camera and the system has to be recalibrated rather than merely reconnected.
Renault calls its driver-assistance package Active Emergency Braking. The part that concerns us is the camera behind the windscreen. It reads lane markings, the vehicle ahead and, on most systems, pedestrians, and it does that through the glass.
Take the old windscreen out and put a new one in, even a perfect fit, and the camera is no longer looking at the world from exactly the same angle. A few tenths of a degree at the glass becomes metres of error at a hundred metres down the road. That is why Active Emergency Braking needs recalibrating after a replacement rather than merely being reconnected.
We tell you at the quote whether your Renault needs it and what it adds, and we arrange it as part of the job rather than sending you somewhere else afterwards.
The rest of the job
How a Renault replacement runs, and what moves the price
The steps are the same for every vehicle we fit, so they live on the service page rather than being repeated here. The part specific to a Renault is Active Emergency Braking: whether your build carries it decides both the glass and whether calibration is part of the job.

Questions
Renault glass questions
Can you replace a Renault windscreen at my home or work?
Yes, and that is how we do most Renault jobs. We bring the glass, the urethane and the tools to the vehicle. We need room to open both front doors and somewhere reasonably sheltered if it is raining.
Does my Renault need the camera recalibrated after a new windscreen?
Almost certainly, if it carries Active Emergency Braking. We confirm it from your build when you book and include it in the quote rather than adding it later. See windscreen replacement for how calibration fits into the job.
What decides the price of a Renault windscreen?
On a Renault the single biggest step is whether Active Emergency Braking is fitted, because that adds a calibration to the job as well as narrowing the glass. The build year and grade decide the rest. Our cost guide explains each factor.
Can a chip in a Renault windscreen be repaired instead?
Often, and on a Renault it is worth asking early: keeping the original glass means the camera behind it never moves, so there is no calibration to arrange either. See windscreen chip repair.
