Proberbly the switch on the PCB or the key itself isn't transmitting. If you're close to Nottingham I offer a repair service on these. Mick

Doesn't sound like Crank Position Sensor to me if its smelling rich as that normally means it is fuelling and to do that the ECM needs to see a trigger pattern (Which is derived from the CPS). More likely to be an H02 and CTS issue but a decent session with diagnostics will confirm or deny and...

Really and these were 100% new Pierberg/Renault EGR valve and position sensor assemblies? Glad its sorted but an EGR should last longer then 2yrs. Mick

It sounds very much like a wiring issue then chap. If you decide you'd like to bring it in then drop me a line via my website as I can't always get on here in the daytime.

Just be sure its bled up correctly... failure to do so can have varying results which include no hot air from the heater, annoying/bouncing temp gauge or even, in worst cases, head gasket failure.

Disconnect them from the over all system then yep, water in each system "In" until it runs clear then reverse flush it via the "out" Discconect Rad from the cylinder head and the same with the matrix flow and returns

Might be down to the setup of the brake pedal switch then.

Does the code come back instantly or does it clear until you touch the brake pedal?

A single 5l bottle is normally enough for a good flush and refill on a Clio II. Flush the Rad, Flush the Head and Flush the heater matrix before refilling or else your nice green coolant will go brown after a few miles.

The only thing I'd like to have seen would be the Renault diamonds in white also... makes me want to paint my R19 white now.

Also it won't be long before its bloody freezing outside! Always better to make sure your anti-freeze is at the correct strength now rather than later as siezed water pumps aren't funny. Okay, its not so much of an issue on the Clio II with the F4R fitted because the water pump isn't timing...

DF135 is the priority matey... brake pedal switch fault!

What code reader did you use to obtain these as i've heard of a few "Cheaper" units throw "Low Pressure" descriptions before with no actual codes and as the D4F has no way of measuring cylinder pressures I can only assume its a translation issue. "Cylinder 1 Command fault" - Again, a possible...

I always price to replace them though as my prices are pretty much based on engine platform rather than vehicle and on a 30-40k vehicle the water pump should be fine and so its owners choice to have it replaced or not (though for the cost vs piece of mind I still try to press for a new unit...

CLIP time is £35 per hour mate but I don't religously bill that way. Mick

Yep, its the same on the R26/27... comes as part of the kit if you get the right parts manager ;)

DF135 is the priority which in this case related to the brake pedal switch. Have you removed it from its secure mount and reset it yet?

Water Pump to on that lump... again, piece of piss to do especially with the engine out. Shouldn't take you any more than half an hour. If you need help identifying the timing marks or finding the lock points give me a shout as the D7F cam sprocket has a couple of marks oftern confused as being...

If its a standard cup type union then no copper washers are used. These are only used (normally) on banjo "take-off" type fittings.

Ash, yes my price also includes for a waterpump but on a Clio III it may not need it (as above) and in that case it becomes cheaper by -£56. Does include the Aux Belt kit though Mick

Nice one matey!

Arse end up in the air and wheels off. Handbrake off and someone in the car working the pedal - Do the pistons work correctly and let off? If they do are the pads free to slide or are they stuck? (If they're stuck there's the issue). If the piston isn't going back far enough then you'll need to...

Love these cars and in a nice colour to... Brembo's.... finger nails out and cat hissing noises. These setups hate me!

Yes, its fairly easy... I'm sure there's a guide to this in the members area so might be worth you joining up as it's only £12 a year and there's loads of usefull DIY stuff in there. Deffo keep with Renault Type-D coolants. Simple to use, its at the right mix strength and did I mention its...

Based in Nottingham and £380 here also using Renault parts. Fred is closer to you though so give him a call cos he loves the K4M's :rasp: Mick

Normally yes - from changing oil to changing a wheel. Step 1 - disconnect the battery lead :lol:

If you fancy the trip to Notts, I charge £35 for CLIP time. Mick

Depends on what system... but normally the control module of each system

To be fair though *some* garages do take the piss but then if you see what they're driving its obvious how they pay for em. The flip side to that coin is that sometimes though "Joe Public" wants the world for nothing and as above, we to have mortgages to pay, kids to feed and buy for, etc. I...
