you can't really do more than what you have done, poss take it to reno (expensive i know) but with a recurring alarm fault you don't have many options. i take it the plip locks and unlocks the car ok?

local garage should be able to sort it for you

i didnt say disconnect batt to silence alarm. it will eventually silence itself. however i have seen three clio's with the same problem and disconnecting the batt for a period of time then going through the lock/unlock procedure has cured two of them. the third had water in the unit directly...

try leaving the battery disconnected and the car unlocked for several hours, then reconnect it, shut all the doors, windows, bonnet ect. lock the car with the plip leave for a minute the unlock it. this sometimes works if the alarm is playing up

its the spiral wire connects to the airbag. its supposed to coil and uncoil itself as you turn the steering wheel so the airbag is always connected as it were. it must be right or your airbag could fail to operate. you are also supposed to disconnect the battery for a while before playing with...

i'm a bit far, daventry. i'm trying to think of any good diesel shops in stafford if i remember any i'll let you know

possibly an air leak into fuel system or a blocked filter. best start with the cheap bits before the scare mongers start LOL take it to a diesel fitter/shop whereabouts in the world are you?
