197 ECU engine Issues



  Renaultsport 197
Having running problems with my engine or what I suspect to be my ECU. I know these motors are rough on startup and until they warm up they should be fine but mine is spontaniously making mad jerking splutters, you have to fully lift off to gain control of it and thats not a good idea sometimes if its going to set you sideways around a corner :-0 haha

A lad told me this was common problem with early models and all it will need is a software update on the ECU.

Has anyone heard anything about this or can help me out? Evan Halshaws are being pretty unhelpful. Already waited a month to get it booked in and waiting another month for them to look at it :( Hard times!

Thats nice to know. At least I can push Halshaws for this to be done now. I take it if I went for a proper aftermarket ECU upgrade my warranty would be void if they found out?? Pure b*****d!!

Yeah it would. I looked into the omex 600 fitted to mine but for £3000 its not worth it mate!

Not that my warranty is valid anyway :p
