Clio 16V **Help**please



  RenaultSport clio 172 mk2
My friend has a 93clio16v whic has been to renault many times over this problem. When the car is hot you can be driving in traffic and as you slow down to stop the car cuts out. It is just before you stop when your around 10mph-5mph. The car has 1 of the crap k&n induction kits that sits really close to the engine. Would this cause it to happen is it sucking in to much hot air causing cut out?. The car has had various sensors replaced. Why is it just cutting out. Renault say nothing is wrong with the car as it never does it when they test drive. But it happens when the car has been on the road for a bit and happens more if you are braking hard just before you push the clutch down the car cuts out.??. The car is fine when very cold But when stuck in traffic it happens alot. Any help with what this might be ??. Has anyone had this problem with other cars cutting out when engine is warm/hot. Please any advice would be great. The car also starts straight away after cutting out

Yeh mine only did it when it was hot, the problem with mine was the HT leads, they had corroded away!! Completely fell apart when I took them off.
 
Clean ISCV and check engine earths, in particular the gearbox one.

Odd that it only does ti sometimes, usually they do it all the time, presume the revs drop right down when the clutch is put in, and then sometimes it stalls it? If so its a very common problem
