    Ready to give up

    Yes thanks I meant map sensor may have been the pad autocorrecting. Don't be a smart ass. How much is cheap for an injector?

    Ready to give up

    Hey guys I've had this reoccurring problem with my clio. it stalls when rolling upto junctions, has an intermittent misfire, and once it stalls can be very hard to restart. I've had numerous bits replaced, no cure so far. (Cleaned crank sensor, rear lambda, temp sensor, plugs, ht leads) I've...

    Clio vs megane

    As to the rods Probably made in different years then the part was superseded to a new number for both? I had the same dilemma. RS Megane, focus st, astra vxr, but then I started looking at brand new cars instead, which lead me to different machinery. Hatches with similar power to the clio.

    What sensors are these?

    I couldn't get the lambda sensors to budge with the clearance I had to work under the car. but I unplugged the battery for 15 mins to reset the ecu. It seemed to have an effect on the starting, first flick of the key, however it doesn't always start after stalling now which it still does. Ok...

    What sensors are these?

    Yes I told my mechanic about the lambda sensors and he said, when they plugged it in it only said the rear one was faulty. but he wouldn't listen when I told him about the front one causing problems. i think I'm going to put it on the ramps my dad has, and swap the lambda sensors over tomorrow...

    What sensors are these?

    Ah ok, so the map sensor may be the cause for my problems. would it throw up a fault code? I have the regular issue people have been complaining about, but the seems to be no definitive fix. It stalls as its coasting upto junctions, stalls in neutral, in gear, clutch down or up. also I have...

    What sensors are these?

    Hey guys what sensors are these? Would they cause the car to stall if they are loose? Or shorting out? They are found on the left of the throttle body plenum on a 172. The black wiring housing that runs up the left side of the engine, that holds the wiring for these two sensors, could be...

    172 running issues on hills

    Hey guys, i noticed today when firing up the clio, either it stalled because it always does it, or because I was wiggling this big black cable. On the side of the engine, which once I took the cover off the top. is the wiring for these two sensors. It continued to stall when wiggling these...

    To sell or track?

    Well I pick the Fabia up on Friday. Thing is the clio only has 68,000 on the clock, I would effectively ruin it as a road car llol well as long as I don't strip it out I spose.

    To sell or track?

    Hey guys As you may know from my other posts, my clio 172 ph2 has a nasty misfire, and is forever stalling and not starting on me. I can't rely on it everyday anymore to get me to work. So yesterday I bought myself a Fabia vRS to commute to work in. Now what should I do with my Clio? which I...

    Bah - Still cutting out

    I also have this problem, cutting out when rolling to a junction with the clutch down. Is it easy to swap lambda sensors yourself? I may have a go this weekend.

    172 running issues on hills

    Ok I investigated the routing of the HT leads. What i found was the cables run to the far left of the throttle body top renaultsport bit, then all 4 went underneath on the left side. Im guessing this wasn't correct, because when I run my fingers along the back of this tb unit plenum. I noticed a...

    172 running issues on hills

    How can I check the fuel pressure, is it something I can do from home, or is it a workshop job? im going to have a look for pinched ht leads today, cheers for that.

    172 running issues on hills

    No warning lights, nothing coming up when plugged in either. Coil may have been replaced as my local garage has done the work. I did ask them to replace it. I wouldn't have thought a pinched HT lead would be an issue if its fine for normal driving but not uphill. Im thinking it might be a fuel...

    New owner, now 172 won't start once warm???

    Cts? yes it does splutter when.cold. my mechanic has replaced the plugs and the temp sensor to correct it, and now I've got a misfire too. But the real test shall come tomorrow morning, to see if it has cured it.

    New owner, now 172 won't start once warm???

    Would this sensor cause the same trouble when the engine is cold? Mine is doing the opposite, all the above symptoms but when cold, yet fine when hot.
