Rev problem could be a sticky throttle or possibly a TDC sensor. Clean the TB first if not get it on the computer to see if any codes have been thrown up!

Mine has a 2.0l turbo engine, but it's a Megane! Haha

My bad!! I'll have to move there to escape this s**t-hole!

Wash the car, then dry with a microfibre towel and polish. Then wax it! By the way, wtf are you waxing in this weather? It's far too cold for that carry on!! You'll find it extremely hard to get the wax to cure!!

+1 for Fred. top bloke and always gives sound advice!!

Guys, just a quick heads up about this. Looks like it'll be a great day. Raging I have to work!! Get your names down on RMS if you can go! http://www.reallymeansounds.com/forum/news-events/139312-renault-meet-22-01-11-ai-rr-day-2.html

The squirting for the washer jets is spot on. They all work like that. They use the same type of pump as the front/rear window jets. It's a two way pump with each jet attached to 1 output. So the the pump fires 1 way, then the other, hence the odd squirting. As for the bulbs, renault genuine...

Check the track rod end ball joints and also where the rod connects to the rack. Also check your engine mounts, particularly the dogbone and gearbox mounts.

Easy enough done! You need to remove the heatshield, and possibly the exhaust. I just futtered around it, as taking off was too much hassle. Iirc there are 4 bolts holding the stick in and 1 to attach to the linkage. this may be useful to you...

It's fuel injected, so shouldn't need any acceleration to start it. There's a problem somewhere. Could be a TDC sensor or maybe a coolant temp sensor. Could even be a faulty throttle. I'd ask the garage to pay for it to be diagnosed on a Renault Clip computer. Shouldn't be more than £50 from...

Just use the £10 1? Pair of snips and rewire the plug? Or am I missing something?

Looks perfectly normal for those engines! Especially with it being colder these days! If you start losing coolant, then panic. If not, drive on!!

No, the code will still be there. It will show up as an historic code and not a current fault. As said, you've probably just got water in something electrical and it didn't like it! Hopefully all fixed now though. Be careful next time you wash her!

My old 1.2 Clio passed with a decat. I'd had problems with a blocked cat, so cut the cat apart, took the insides out and welded it back up. Box was still there, just nothing in it. MOT guy didn't notice and emissions were fine!

Mine gets washed at least once a week! Normally gets a full detail every 3-4 months and a top up wax every month! Just fully detailed it this week, so won't be getting much more than a wash until the spring! She's wearing a nice coat of Swissvax Onyx at the minute!

Do what I do. Park the car in the garage! Job done!

Organising an RSNI run for 12/09/10. http://renaultsportni.19.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=382 Would be great to see you all there!!

Just keep an eye on it. DO NOT let it run dry!

Renault type D coolant. It shouldn't use any. There may be a leak at a pipe or maybe a pin-hole in the radiator where a stone has flicked up!

Hot! There aint much room around it for it to breathe!

It was a mine's bigger than your's post! :o
