197 bunny hop when cold

[dredge3]

when setting off from cold our 197 bunny hops. bad clutch control, you would think. Its so hard if you set off quick.Fine when warm.
Still under waranty.Anyone heard of a fault.
Does the traction control do this?asp or what ever its called

This is to do with the map on the ecu trying to over fuel the cat to get it to temp!

Nothing to do with clutch

Renault have released an updated map which they will install for you free of charge if you go in to your dealer

Had it done and it's still the same. You learn to live with it as it's fine when the car's warmed up.

Even when warm, sometimes out goes like split shi*, pulling quite well from above 2k.Other times its flat all the way through, hitting 5k and stays flat

Hmmm a bunny hop is jump of the ground, i'd love to see that!

 

[dredge3]

does the map update do anything? can u just contact renault and give reg to find whats been done

All the RS models right from the 172 splutter and run like sh*t until they're up to temp, you just have to live with it.

Our 172 ran like a dream.
It doesnt sputter and no car should splutter, warm or cold.If it does, its not burning fuel correct.
