I would say search, but it doesnt work at the moment. Very common aparantly and is caused by loose top mounts. Im sure someone will tell you all about it, cant be specific as i havent had it
Its a combination of problem a powerful FWD car suffers but eh 172 knocks.
Tthe wheels struggle for grip and sort of jump a bit then grip then jump then grips. This means the engine shakes about since the wheels are one fraction of the second going forwards th next there stopped/slowed.
Since the mounts arnt to good/ there not much space. The engine hits other things around it ie the stearing the heat shield.
There not much you can do rearly bar cutting away some of the heat shield as Renault do under warenty.
