Right iv had the AA out today they have told me my map sensor
Ish good told me to get new one etc. But he also said I could
Get one from all but any Renault petrol engine is this true. I have a phase
1 172
Iv just had the idle control valve fitted which took the revs sky high was idling at 3000rpm so I rang AA
They sent someone out had a look around etc then un plugged map sensor and it cured the problem
So his diagnostic said map sensor,
Yeah the rubber real on the end of the sensor that goes into the inlet is bit Mullered. And won't push in currently. So atm iv got it disconnected and using it like that till tomorrow when I get new one
If you disconnect your MAP sensor normally the car will basically stall as its revving so slowly.
You have a high idle because of another problem and by unplugging the MAP sensor it just bring the revs down, but as they're so high anyway it's not cutting the engine.
Have you removed throttle body or pipe that connects to the bottom of the throttle body?
Try flicking your electrical ignition on off about 10 times and see if that helps.
I read somewhere that you need to "set" the new icv with the ecu or something.
Worked for me when i changed my ICV it was up around 3-4k revs then tried this and it slowly came down!
