Hi, im James, owner of a 52 plate Clio 1.5 DCi Extreme and im new to the forums.
Im having a major problem with my car, over the last week I noticed a slight knocking noise, especially at very low speed, I assumed that it was a worn engine mount but today the problems have got a lot worse. I set off from home and after approx 2 minutes the car juddered sharply and then recovered, then a few metres down the road the car cut out completely and will not restart The toxic emission warning light is flashing. When I try and restart the car it turns over but will not fire and it judders shaking the gear lever.
Can anyone suggest what might be wrong and what would need to be replaced to rectify the problem, ive never owned a diesel before this car so i dont really know where to start.
Thanks in advance - James
