Post by: Webby the Bear on 31 October 2011, 12:16:12
hi all,

my mate at work, his got the above car (4 years old) his engine management light is on and the spanner has lit up and also the emmisions light. performance is a bit sluggish and jerky when accelerating.

any ideas? i initially thought misfire when he mentioned it was jerky under acceleration but any ideas would be appreciated :)

Needs a code reader on it,more than likely a coil gone down

+1 on coil, always going. you can get your hand to the injector wiring on some of them to narrow down which cylinder.

Coils are a BIG issue on the Renaults, they need testing correctly with a test plug and if it is at fault, change all four.

A mate of mine had one that nearly did that of its' own accord when he had the audacity to try to use the electric windows one day. ;D
