idle

Hello everyone, I have a ktr throttle body mounted on my Clio 2RS 172 and I have a question concerning the 4 screws under the injectors (see attached pictures). When I want to mount my injectors, the injector mounting clip comes up against these screws. Ktec has confirmed that these 4 screws...

Evening all, Another poorly running Clio, same one as in a previous post of mine. The car will consistently stall at seemingly any temperature when the clutch is pushed in while driving normally. It’s particularly noticeable when pulling up to lights etc, will start slowing down > clutch in >...

Hi all! Hoping for some suggestions on what to check out to narrow down my idle issue. I recently picked up a P2 172 that’s done ~180k kms. Since I’ve owned it it’s had a pretty rough idle, which I’ve heard is common on these cars but recently it’s gotten worse to the point where it stalls...

Alright so my clio is finnally on the road. Ive been under the car more times than i can count over the past weeks, managed to problem solve along the way but theres a problem with the idling Once ive gone over 4000rpm ( roughly ) The rpm will only drop to 1500 not to the 1000 its supposed to...

Hi all, I've seen a single thread from 2016 about this but it wasn't conclusive and after taking the car to a few garages (or 2 a few times) I'm no closer to actually sorting this noise! It's a weird sort of chirping noise which which appeared after the timing belt was changed, they did water...

Hi all, i have a 2003 clio mk2 1.416v, which has an idling problem. it idles at around 1800 rpm when cold and 3000 rpm when warm! this happens even when i dip the clutch during normal driving. i have removed, cleaned and refitted the throttle body but has made no difference. Was thinking it...

Hi guys, Basically the car was in garage for like a year, started it and drow it to different garage without problem... Then changed water pump and timing belt. Jumpstarted it and everything worked fine, but only problem is a bad idle.. It stays around 1k a bit less, thats normal, but it jumps...

2004 Clio 182 The car has developed a rattle on idle, it happens when the car has reached temperature. At first I thought it was the exhaust heat shield. I discovered yesterday that if I engage the clutch the rattle disappears. Could it be the clutch release bearing? Or a worn mount? Many...

Hi, Recently bought a Renault Clio 172. Once going runs great, pulls hard in all gears. Only problem is it seems to be idling low around 500-600 and sounding like it could cut out. It starts first time and hasn't yet actually cut out when idle but never gets about 600ish rpm. Looked in paperwork...

First of all, let me just say that I love this car, although it is a pain in the a**. Just to give you a bit of background, I bought my 2009 Clio (the 1.2 TCE model) back in March, with 31,000 miles on the clock. The check engine light came on the day after I bought it but went out as I was...

Hi Folks, newbie here. Somebody out there must be able to answer this question. I have a very rich - poor idling Renault Clio 182. Everything else apart form this, is absolutely spot on. well - from what i can tell anyway. I am wondering if anybody out there can answer some live data...

Hi all, Need some (potentially simple) advice. I bought my 2003, 1.4 Clio 3 years ago (an upgrade is well needed, yes, i know) when it was on 72k, it's now on 103k. Since I've had it, it hasn't really put a foot wrong, few issues here and there. HOWEVER... this is something that has been an...

Right so my car has done this for as long as I can remember and I really want it sorted now as its annoying. If I start the car instantly when cold (so from ignition OFF to ON) the revs will bounce up and down for about 5 seconds then everything will go back to normal. If I left the ignition in...

Hello everyobne, i've got a 08 Clio Mk3 TCe, some days ago car started to idle around 1k rpm even when warm, and i found that this "valve" has problem. You can if its major or not? And what exactly is this? Normally it was connected like in the photo, now its not connected and i idle aroun 1k...
