doesn't feel or sound like its running on three but I will have to check, thanks Is there anything else I could check? why would the revs be sitting so low?

I've checked them all changed the coil, all appear fine? No air leaks either.. doesn't do it all the time, only after starting, and intermittent during.

Hi, been having a few idle problems with my clio 182, Very low idle speed and when driving feels like its running out of fuel when accelerating? Pre-cat lamba appears to be ok (recently changed) and have checked all injectors which appear fine. Any ideas?

Still having issues! will not idle properly unless i unplug the lambda pre cat?? Both my lambdas are brand new...

Just been underneath and unplugged the pre cat lambda.. This appears to have stabilised the idle but im sure its not the source of the problem as both mine are brand new.. Any ideas people?

Just cleaned the throttle body to make sure there are no air leaks.. the car now starts, idles at around 1K for about 1 minute before the revs very very slowly drop until the engine cuts out? :S Also has massive hasitation on acceleration then a sudden burst of power..............? I put my foot...

Hi, Thanks.. just checked and unpluging them one by one makes a difference on all four. When i start the car the revs sit at 1K then after about 30 seconds fall to around 0.4?

I have been having low idle rough runing problems with my much loved 182... Heres what ive done so far... Changed both Lambdas for new bosch ones.. cleared codes. etc Checked CAT New MAP sensor New Injectors New TDC sensor New Coolent sensor New air sensor New plugs New ign Pack New leads...

Does your power steering work?

Thanks...... Mine idles rough but recently when cold drops to 0.5 and starts to stutter/cut out before the revs rise...

Hi, Having a few problems with low idle :(.. seems best thing to start with is a good clean of the throttle body... Any suggestions where to start? Also do 182s have a idle control valve? ........ Oh and ive noticed a slightly broken clip at the back of the inlet manifold.. its black and...

To be honest you need to find the source of the noise and smoke.. I had a simular problem before which turned out to be the air con pump pulley starting to seize up and burning the Aux belt... good luck!

Could you see where the smoke was coming from?

You can get the 'stretchable' gaiters that will save you taking the shaft out??

What car? Sounds like a pulley/belt.....

Mine did the same..... It will soon seize and start burning the belt!! Get a new or good used Air Con pump... You can pick them up for around £50. Its not an easy job to change and you will need to get it re gassed etc. I would also suggest changing the tensioner and pulleys at the same time.

Make sure you get the Renault Kit, Lots of feed back saying the cheap ones are poor... Cheapest I found are from K-Tec

Reset the ECU

Over the pastfew months I have had problems with my Clio 182 with the Lambda 1 - pre CAT.After searching for the problems I have finally fixed the problem with help from people here.... Basically it all started with the car coughing on the motorway one morningunder acceleration and the...

Hi everyone...... im having lambda issues which looks like a common problem..... Recently had the immissions light come on indicating a fault on Lambda 1.. after alot of fault finding i found this was due to the lambda loom melting due to heat coming from the exhaust.. The loom was cut out and...

Seen the same before.. fractured when refitting the new belt etc over tightened nut?

Tried that with no luck several times using a number of different Lambdas....Even does it with lambda not plugged in! Just hope i didn't 'blow' my new lambdas when testing before the wiring was sorted.........

Help!! Any help would be much appreciated.......Here is my story of 182 woe! A few weeks ago my clio 182 started coughing all the way to work and theemissions light came on...... when putting my foot down the car did nothingthen suddenly accelerated? After many hours spent laying under the car...

Thanks...... Im sure i put all the wires together correctly..... tomorrow I will recheck all the wiring and try a differnt lambda just in case!...driving me crazy now! Is there anything else I should check?

Both sensors are new oe parts

How does the heating circuit effect the lambda?

Yes, cut all four wires at both ends and replaced with new separate from the loom... Still no change!!! Did notice that the lambda reading stays the same at idle and with revs??

Thanks, just checked the loom with volt meter and all appears fine, even bypassed the connector plug on the lambda.... Stills shows up on diagnostics as 'lambda 1 open circuit/short circuit....

Hi all... The other day I was driving along when my 182 started misfiring and juddering like it was running out of fuel, after getting it plugged in i foun a faulty injector and 'bank 1 lambda' fault. On investigation I found an intermittent fault on injector 1 so change the injector and both...

Thanks... After checking everything twice i found a fault with the TDC sensor.... Looks like it was giving an intermitent fault once hot. Quick change for a new one and the fault was gone. Squeeling was down to me be being a numpty, air leak in manifold in between changing plugs!
