clio is playing up

[dajones]

just popped to tesco and as i was pulling off to come home the car was wobbling and not really accelerating so i thought maybe a tyre has gone. checked them all theyre fine. carried on driving when i got to a set of traffic lights the car really started to shake and its sounding like a steam engine pulling off them it just looses all power the rev needle is about 1/4 of where its meant to be when idling. now tescos is 1/4 mile from my house uphill and i stalled 10 times

any ideas?

Coil pack or HT leads.

Common as hell on them.

 

[Riley!]

as above or possibly o2 sensor

must be the orange wheels :clown:

 

[dajones]

orange wheels are fine

how much are renault likely to sting me for the coil pack and leads and the o2 sensor if its them. really cba paying for another diagnostic last time it was playing up no parts needed replacing so there was no warrenty claim. car kept jumping into limp mode apparently there was a wire loose somewhere.

 

[Riley!]

your talking a few hundred for the lot, if your doing leads and coil pack you may aswell do plugs too IMO. The second o2 sensor is for diagnostics IIRC so it would be the first if any

 

[dajones]

so what exactly would i need? ive seen coil packs one ebay for around 40 ish

 

[Riley!]

what would you need assuming it was coil pack do you mean?

coil pack
plugs
leads

this sounds like the problem im having, its doesnt like to idle and it miss fires on part throttle. so far ive changed the throttle body, coil pack, leads and plugs but it hasnt sorted it out. Had it on a diagnostics machine but that didnt find anything either.

 

[dajones]

i just changed the coil pack and got all the bits to service it aswell all working

Nice 1 fella, how much did parts etc cost you in all then?

 

[dajones]

90.97 :O

coilpack
air filter
oil filter
fuel filter
5w40 oil
and spark plugs

 

[James.f]

Thats not bad fella considering youve had oil aswell,
