A very popular model of the French automobile industry, Renault Logan, rightfully occupies a leading position in the Russian market. Despite its budget class, the car is very reliable and practical to use. What makes Logan so versatile is its decent ground clearance and sufficient trunk capacity. But what if you need to transport large cargo by car? After all, the rear seats on this car do not fold down!
In the video there is a moment on how to remove the back seat and raise the backrest!
Seat belts
They somewhat interfere with further actions. If they are not working and do not come out of the bracket, it is easier to simply remove them from the mounts. For this purpose, the pad on the buckle is removed and the corresponding bolt that holds it is unscrewed. Next, remove the screw that secures the body covering from above to the central pillar.
Otherwise, in order not to have to deal with additional installation of the belts in place, they are pulled to the sides and tucked under the bottom of the backrest. All you have to do is lower it into the seat place - and here you have the coveted additional trunk volume.
It is worth noting that the reverse process will be somewhat more complicated: you need to touch the removed bolts into the corresponding holes.
Parts and consumables:
On a Logan car, the rear seat is three-seater, continuous. The rear seat back does not recline.
On Sandero and Sandero Stepway cars, the rear seat cushion is continuous, and the backrest consists of two sections. To increase the luggage compartment on Sandero and Sandero Stepway cars, you can remove the luggage compartment shelf and fold the backrest sections separately or together. The seats of all passengers are equipped with three-point seat belts with inertia coils.
The driver and front passenger seat belts are height adjustable.
Some cars are equipped with inertial seat belts with pretensioners. The body is equipped with an instrument panel, glove compartment, cigarette lighter, ashtray, sun visors, interior and exterior rear view mirrors, front removable and rear towing eyes.
On a Logan car, under the rear bumper on both sides there are ventilation holes covered with rubber curtains. Some cars are equipped with electrically driven and electrically heated exterior mirrors.
The electrically heated mirrors are switched on simultaneously with the electrically heated rear window. All cars are equipped with a driver airbag, and some cars are equipped with a front passenger airbag.
How to remove the rear seat of Renault Logan
Owners of Renault Logan are sometimes faced with the need to transport large cargo that exceeds the size of the car trunk.
In this case, transportation can be carried out using a special trunk mounted on the roof of Logan. However, this approach requires additional costs of money, installation time and worsens the aerodynamics of the car.
The second method is to increase the trunk volume by removing the backrest of the Renault Logan rear seat.
And here the Logan owner faces a problem, since the manufacturer has not provided for the possibility of folding the back of the rear seat or quickly removing it. But this does not mean that the rear seat cannot be removed! This will require a minimum of tools and very little time.
Removing the rear seat in a Renault Logan must begin by lifting the rear seat sofa. To do this, you need to pull it forward a little, and then unlock the latches that hold the seat in place. Lifting the seat, under it you should find two bolts for the lower seat back mounting. These bolts must be removed.
Now only the seat belts can interfere with removing the rear seat backrest. In order not to waste time removing them, we move them to the sides and tuck them under the back. After this, the back of Logan's seat can be removed. To do this, lift it and pull it towards you. It is more convenient to do this together.
note
If you have to transport large items quite often, then it makes sense not to reinstall the rear seat back bolts.
This will significantly speed up the removal of the backrest - to do this, it will be enough to lift it, remove it from the fastenings and pull it out of the cabin.
It is convenient to transport the removed backrest of the Renault Logan rear seat by placing it between the backrests of the front seats and the raised seat of the rear sofa or in its place.
Another way
There is another way to quickly increase the trunk space of Renault Logan. By installing the rear seat backrest on small door hinges.
Such changes made to the design of the Renault Logan rear seat backrest fastening make it possible to use the car for transporting passengers, and, if necessary, easily increase the volume of trunk space for oversized cargo.

Why remove the rear sofa?
The rear seats of Renault Logan are removed not only in the case of transporting large cargo, when the standard volume of the luggage compartment is not enough. This procedure is mandatory for conscientious drivers when switching to the winter and summer seasons.
- Change of interior trim.
- When painting some body elements.
- When carrying out work that requires access to a part of the body hidden under the rear seats (replacing the fuel filter and fuel pump).
The rear row of passenger seats is located above the fuel pump, so if this element needs to be inspected, repaired or replaced, the sofa must be disassembled. Of course, the removal procedure can also be carried out by the maintenance service, but the removal of seats is a paid service that will significantly increase the amount in the check.
Also, disassembling the sofa at the back is necessary to dry the interior when the car is used to overcome water obstacles or in conditions of high humidity, as well as if a damp room is used to store the car.
The second row of seats is also removed if it is necessary to glue an additional insulating layer.
To gain full access to the bottom, you need to dismantle the entire structure of the seats, including the backrests.
How to properly fold and repair seats
If you need to remove the front seats in a car yourself, then the car owner does not have any difficulties. For example, in Renault Logan models of the first and second generation, direct adjustment of the backrest yourself, as well as adjustment of the backrest angle according to the type of tilt and minor repair work are similar; now on the Internet there are many video instructions on how to do this.
I would like to note that in Renault Logan there is a special elevator near the seat.
And now, in addition to a special elevator, some models are equipped with heating, which may also fail at some point due to improper operation, then a replacement will need to be made, and the driver or front passenger seat will need to be removed. Many people are interested in how to remove the seat correctly. This is what we will talk about in this article.
So, the seat frame is held on by bolts that are attached to the car body. The process of removing the seat for repairs is carried out in several stages, below we provide detailed instructions on how to remove the seat in a representative of the French automobile industry Renault Logan:
- First you need to unscrew the bolts that secure the chair to the base.
- If you need to replace the heating system, then the seat backrest needs to be separated from the cushion.
- If heating elements are replaced with new ones, then when purchasing them, be sure to check them with the catalog serial number of the original part, otherwise they may not fit.
- After the repair has been carried out, you need to remove the upholstery from the chair to replace the heating threads, which, in fact, failed.
- Soft upholstery is almost always secured with rubber bands to a special pillow frame, as well as with special metal hooks, which will also need to be removed. When removing the upholstery yourself, you need to be extremely careful so as not to damage the upholstery fabric.
- Carefully disconnect the electrical wiring located in the upholstery directly under the seats from the existing heating elements.
- After this, you can safely replace the broken heating element with a new part.
- You need to assemble the chair in the reverse order, so to speak, as indicated in the instructions.
Now that you understand how to remove the front or other seat in a Renault Logan car, you need to figure out how to remove the rear seat.
The 1st generation model never had the necessary ability to recline the back of the rear row of seats, since they were tightly screwed to the frame itself, and they could only be completely removed.

So, to remove the entire rear seat, use the following instructions:
- Armed with a screwdriver, you should remove the clamps of the cushion of the immediate rear row of seats; to do this, you need to move it forward a little and you will see that the clamp is located in the lowest area of the entire chair.
- Immediately after the locking device is removed, remove the lower part of the seat and pull it out of the car.
- Again, using a screwdriver, you need to unscrew a couple of bolts that are located on the right and, accordingly, the left side of the back of the rear seat directly.
- Then we move the seat belts to the side and remove the seat back; it must be removed from the locking device at the very bottom.
- Due to the fact that the backrest design is very massive, it is advisable to resort to outside help.
Manual transmission backstage repair
In front, French engineers installed simple seats with fabric upholstery and white stitching. In addition, they are equipped with heating and height adjustment functions.
The upper part of the dashboard received soft and pleasant-to-touch plastic. To start a Renault Fluence car, you just need to press a button, and the key card may simply lie nearby. In the back row there is a sofa with an armrest, which is equipped with 3 headrests.
These headrests can be adjusted in height. Interestingly, some versions received leather-covered headrests. The rear window has a curtain for privacy, which can be used if necessary. The driver is faced with a large leather-wrapped steering wheel, which has an overly large airbag pad. It all doesn't look very nice.
The steering wheel itself is equipped with 4 buttons to control the music system. It’s interesting that there was a time when many people criticized the Chevrolet Aveo for a similar decision, but in this case everyone liked it. In the updated Renault Fluence, French specialists used a round-shaped display; the gear shift knob on the Renault Fluence received a chrome trim.
The round screen displays the current speed mode, as well as the fuel level and oil temperature. A massive analog motor rotation sensor is installed on the left side. It’s interesting that all the window regulators on the Renault Fluence are of the impulse type and the gear shift knob is backlit.
Removing and installing front seats on Renault Logan
The first step is to move the chair all the way back by pressing the corresponding lever to do this.
And now, using the tools mentioned above, unscrew one screw at a time securing the skid to the bottom of the car. This is shown more clearly in the photo below.
Now, on the contrary, we move the seat all the way forward, thereby freeing up access to the rear mounting points of the sled:
Since bolts can become quite rusty over time, you can first apply penetrating lubricant to the joint, and also tap the screw with a hammer or impact screwdriver. And after that we finally unscrew the fastening screws:
Now you can easily begin removing the front seat on a Renault Logan car, since nothing else prevents this.
Installing the seat occurs in the reverse order of removal, and you will not encounter any difficulties when performing this repair. The price of a driver's or passenger's front seat on a Renault Logan can be from 7,000 rubles per unit, although a similar part can be bought at a car disassembly for two or even three times cheaper.
Exterior and interior
Logan's boxy lines are a thing of the past; the car has received a new attractive design with smooth lines with an emphasis on strength and reliability. Look at the photo of Renault Logan, the new exterior embodies all modern style trends without sacrificing the size of the interior. The design has been completely redesigned, new headlights, bumpers, radiator grille, and body lines emphasize the style of the car.
Hyundai Solaris is a new city dweller, designed to delight with its appearance and a hefty set of options. Over the course of six years of sales in Russia, Renault Logan has gained the reputation of an unpretentious, conscientious worker. One was invented by the Koreans, the other by the French, but both are produced in Russia and compete in the same class. We decided to compare these two cars to see which one is better.
Design
Fewer complex parts - it seems that the design of the Renault Logan / Renault Logan was created precisely according to this principle, because the car was supposed to be cheap to produce. Graceful lines, sporty posture - instead, Logan received angular-square shapes, which placed it at the beginning of the evolutionary chain of car design development, somewhere right after the Chinese and VAZ.
The same cannot be said about Hyundai Solaris / Hyundai Solaris. Its design is quite advanced, and the sedan can easily compete with such luminaries as Ford with its kinetic design and Mazda. The Solaris body is simply dotted with intricately shaped stampings, creating a sporty and extremely attractive appearance. From the rear-view mirrors to the fog lights, the Solaris looks, as they say, one hundred percent.
Salon
The interior decoration of Renault Logan / Renault Logan, as well as the appearance of the sedan, is very ascetic. However, with the latest update of the model, the Frenchman’s interior has become prettier. The instrument panel and central control console have changed for the better, and the interior has been enlivened by aluminum-look decorative elements.
However, here too you can find the fruits of saving. The rear door handles are still awkward and are an extension of the plastic door panel. And electric windows, which in others are traditionally located on the door handles of the driver and passengers, in the Renault Logan / Renault Logan are located on the center console and, for rear row passengers, between the front seats (saving on wiring and door design). During the test, we were never able to get used to such an exotic arrangement of buttons, and if we needed to open the window, our hand automatically reached for the door handle.
As for the Renault Logan equipment, the cheapest Authentique includes a driver's airbag, a full-size spare wheel, an ashtray and a cigarette lighter, as well as a heated rear window. In the most expensive Prestige, in addition to the above options, tinted windows, more expensive fabric seat upholstery, chrome decorative elements in the cabin, power steering, fog lights, on-board computer, air conditioning, height adjustment of the steering wheel and driver's seat, power windows, heated seats, as well as electrically adjustable mirrors will be added. rear view with heating. Additionally, you can order a radio with CD-MP3, an ABS system and a front passenger airbag.
But in the interior of the Hyundai Solaris / Hyundai Solaris everything is in its place. And the sedan’s interior itself looks as attractive as its appearance. Compared to the scarce options of the Renault Logan trim levels, the Hyundai Solaris trim levels represent perfection itself. Even in the cheapest configuration, the Korean sedan can be equipped with an automatic transmission, and among its options will be a driver airbag, power steering, height adjustment of the steering column and driver's seat, front electric windows, 4-speaker audio, a full-size spare tire and ashtray with cigarette lighter. What can we say about the intermediate and top-end versions of the Hyundai Solaris, where all the benefits and achievements of modern automotive engineering from bluetooth to the stabilization system are available for an additional payment or in the base.

If you don't have a garage
, where you can leave removed “spare parts”, or it is supposed to take cargo there and pick up people back, then the pillow returns to its place, and the backrest is inserted between it and the front seats.
If you often need a voluminous trunk, the bolts securing the backrest are completely removed. The disassembly process speeds up significantly: picked it up, pulled it out, took it off. Some criticize the “know-how”, they say, they would immediately buy a hatchback with a large trunk volume, but life makes adjustments: it is impossible to predict what will change tomorrow. So, if you are faced with such a problem, take advantage of the flight of Russian engineering. True, it is better to save the bolts in case the extended trunk is no longer needed so often in the future.

- Bite off the top and bottom fasteners - they are hidden in the folds of the seat. It’s difficult to get in there with your bare hands; you can use medical clamps or something similar.
- The first generation Logan upholstery is machine washable. If necessary, you can replace the foam rubber with a new one, using the old one as templates. But thick layers will be required.
- Next you need to assemble everything onto the ties. It will take a couple of packages. If it is necessary to replace the seat grilles, then their part numbers are: Renault 60-01-547-721 (lower), 60-01-547-723 (upper).
- Assembly is carried out in the same way as disassembly. And if you change the driver's foam backrest with the passenger's, you can get fresher lateral support.
If done without interruption, the work is completed in about seven hours. But you can save money.
Tips from Loganovodov
Some of the Logan owners have long been accustomed to transporting large cargo using the method described above, but in addition to all of the above, they share their advice:
If you need to carry loads frequently, simply do not attach the bolts that secure the backrest. Without them, the removal process is reduced significantly, and without them the backrest will not go anywhere. However, the bolts should be kept in a safe place just in case.
Owners of cars from a French company should know how to remove the rear seat on a Renault Logan. The model itself is quite successful and in demand, but has a significant drawback: its trunk is relatively small, and the rear “sofa” does not fold down. So if they need to transport something large, Logan’s owners begin to think about calling a taxi or figuring out which of their friends they can hire for delivery.
There is no need to spend extra money and strain your friends over such an insignificant matter. Yes, the seat does not fold, but its rear backrest can be simply removed. In this case, the space and space thus freed will be enough for very, very long loads. And in fact, this is the result we are trying to achieve with similar procedures.
How to remove the rear seat on a Renault Logan? The instructions are quite simple and quick to follow. Apart from a screwdriver and a wrench, nothing is required for dismantling. The only thing is that it is better to do it with a partner, since the back is quite voluminous.
Installation
After fixing the problem for which you needed information on how to remove the Renault Logan 2 seat, all interior elements are installed in the reverse order.
The main thing is to securely fix the backrest and pillow with the provided fastening mechanisms.
The two hooks that are located behind the backrest must be installed in the grooves located on the shelf adjacent to the back of the sofa. We fix the lower part of the sofa by placing hooks placed on the front edge of the cushion into the grooves of the base.
