From what you've said above its most likely the ECM ramping up the fuelling for cold start enrichment... and its throwing too much in due to an erroneous signal. Possibly due to a faulty CTS or Ho2 (my money is on CTS though). As recommended above already have it checked out properly not "code...

As said in the other post Dan, drop her back and i'll take another look at it all as it was all fine last time it went on the CLIP.

mate, the SAS wiring check won't cost you anything so drop in when you get chance.

Clean the throttle body and if that doesn't cure it check out the live data values on the CTS and H02 sensors... you'll need diagnostics for that though. Mick

Dan, if you feel like a ride over again i'll take a look for you as i've found the SAS to UCH wiring now. Mick

My workshop on a Saturday seems to be becoming a regular CS meet when Daveski and/or James23 break their cars LoLz

Welcome to CS Barrie, get yourself signed up to the East Midlands group to so you'll find out about any up-coming meets. Mick

I had a guy phone me up on Tuesday asking me to try and beat a quote he'd had for changing the belts and dephaser on his 172 so i said "go on then, i'll see what i could do... what have you been quoted" to which he replied £200. Jokers are everywhere!

Wall of fail item that.

The Renault range has been fully CAN-Bus since 2001 so to answer your question yes, your Clio '200 has it. Mick

Ideally it needs CLIP'n to see what the key states are when this happens as it could be a multi-timer fault or it could be the keys or the decoder/associated wiring. Mick

Use the best quality oil filter you can and a good quality 10w/40 semi-synthetic oil. You don't have to use a full on racing oil in your cars as it will make no difference buddy. Same goes for Halfords and other autofactors - don't allow them to sell you anything thats over priced as an own...

There's normally more to this game than unplugging something, taking a look and then plugging it back in again i'm afraid. The fault could be the pedal setup, the TB or the wiring inbetween and if the latter is the case you need to know where each wire goes, check it physically and then make...

Fred is more of a "Storm" man ;)

Speedline 2120's aka the "Turini" - here you go... http://www.revolution247.com/turini-2120-gunmetal-64687-0.html

If you're on an O2 contract you should get it free but you can't just enter your number and login. IIRC you have to send a text message to an O2 number which adds your actual mobile number details to an access list (Which takes an hour or so to become active) before you can actually go roaming...

I bet he offered sexual favours though - I really don't trust that youth and you should see the outfit he's asked me to wear tomorrow to change his timing belt in! Its a bit different to the JC series boxes though but I might give em a call... I hate rebuilding gearboxes especially when I'm not...

That sill repair is pure welding p**n lol In all seriousness though, I hate these bloody things but they've got a massive following so it will sell to someone who will be proud to drive it until the optical pickup in the distributor dies.

What do they charge for a 6-Speed mate? Last time I looked the bearing and synchro kit was around £170 + VAT

At least now if its a nice day we won't be dusting the cars off every 5 minutes. I live 15mins from Donnington but I still think i'm gonna pitch the tent in-field and get fucked on Vodka with Donny then try to kill myself with poorly BBQ'd chicken. Anyone else game?

yes

I'd check the wiring and connectors to the H02 sensor for signs of water ingress/melting on the exhaust Mick

#gutted At 56k RUK are unlikely to make any kind of contribution unless you're the original owner and you've got full dealer service history (which you're not if its come from Evans Halshaw 5months ago) but it never hurts to try. Every 6 speed box; NDO, PK5/6 and TUx have always been weak...

checked your oil level? Pull the plugs and check there condition... you're looking for signs of oil contamination. Mick

Re: 2004 clio dci 1.5 turning over but not starting or firing, please help !!!!!!!!!! Fuelling issues are common but it is also worth noting that the K9K engine sensor array is powered by a +5v reference supply. If one wire is damaged or if a fuse goes the engine will spin over but will not...

Really needs a diagnostic session boys as it could be many things; some pricey, some not but guessing isn't the most effective way to fix it. Mick

Check the stat housing isnt leaking... if its not dropping coolant it will be pushing it out the exhaust.

White smoke can also be oil... its not always blue if there's enough of it. Personally i'd rule out the coils and injectors then compression test it.

Matt, i'm also considering having my Laguna T remapped... is this something you could possibly do on the day? Mick
