I'm sure people will have more of an idea on here than me as i'm having big problems with my 172 and no one can solve it.

so it wasn't accelerating above 3 k and had the light on dashboard before you had the service?? Unfortunately the diagnostic at renault is around 80 quid standard. However if the problem still persists the next time they put it through the diagnostic its free.

omg whats the point!! Will get dirty after driving it once!

sounds like it went into limp mode. get it onto a diagnostic machine

do what i've done. get the caf to go down to the bottom of the car and poke out at a slight angle. that way there is also less bends

woh amazing. i'd lower it a tad and thats it

mine has this sound aswell. but seems to be comming from under the engine bay. does my nut in!!! So much i hate driving with windows down lol

take it to a garage if you unsure. they will find out. I had same problem. had to change my radiator.

not mine (some ones off here) and has been photoshopped lol but love this

awsome pic. that road looks mint!

Really want urs but got no money :dapprove: what you getting once sold?

don't think i will be able to come any more as i'm having a night mare with my 172. It keeps cutting out and trying to sort it.

that is the nicest ph1 i seen ! perfect styling.

Or PM russ@gasperformance I got a really good one from him. He might still have some

i'm having exact same problem. Only in mornings though. First time i start it it starts and splutters and dies unless i rev it to get it going. Otherwise second time is fine.

mine idles at 800revs and is rough. sometimes idles above 1k which is why my car is fucked

Not ure about the problem i'm sure some one one will have an idea on here. For the remap question, I'd get my service done before just to make sure car is fine for the remap.

battery was replaced 4 months ago but will check it again. Had throttle bodies cleaned

just wondering. when renault do a diagnostic test do they do it in the garage, plug the car to the machine and see from there or can they plug it in and drive the car? Cause unless the car doesnt cut out on them they wont find anything? They said if it did have a fault it still wont be backed...

the main sympton is it ONLY does it when its cool outside. so 15 degrees or below. if its 20 degrees it will never cut no matter what.

It wont cut while in gear and as long as i hold the revs. So whilst driving i can feel it suddenly go really lumpy and jerky which is a sign that as soon as i let revs drop (so changing gear or come to stand stil) the car cuts as revs drop all the way down to 0k. It doesnt stall just cut...

really hope it not my BMC as i had so much hassel putting it on, that i got rstuning to fit it (i know im s**t lol) so it was fitted correctly. Plus if it is that i must be the only person on here that has a problem with the bmc as so many people have them on their sports and not had problems...

no. that stays half way all the time.

no idea. where is it?

renault changed it. they never told me which one. i cant be arsed spending money on replacing the other when it might not be that.

damn! I had my lambda sensor replaced! but i dont know which. does that mean it could be the other one faulty.

I have figured out that it only cuts when i let the revs drop so changing gear or coming to a stop. it doesnt stall just cuts as revs fall to 0. Whe i start the car up after it cut the revs fluctuate a bit and will cut again unless i rev the car as i start it up where it'll hold itself.

dont know bout 1.4 RT but my 172 always has airbag light on and all i do is wiggle the wires under passenger seat and sorts it.

are there 2 lambda sensors? or am i dreaming?

i guess it may be the battery but only had it replaced 4 months ago. plus renault would have checked that i assume when it was in. It getting worse in the way that before it would only cut if temp outside was 12 degrees or below. but now its anything from 15 and below. and has resorted in me...
