Alright so i'm going to get new injectors from ECP,
As well as a fuel filter and accelerator cable.
What i have done so far on the car,
Engine rebuild, Cup suspension back and front, gearbox, clutch,
This issue is quite new and i thought it was a fuelling problem so i put in a new fuel pump yesterday,
no change
the car will bog down sometimes once i start it,
or get stuck in the 3-4k rpm zone, if i put foot it will lag a bit and accelerate past it.
Here is a video of idle now,
Any advice from the pro's on the forum would be appreciated

Pretty sure its vacuum pipe for the acoustic valve on the phase 2.
Ahhh
Okay so on my ph1 you can remove it and it blows air when the car is on,
took it off to test.
But just weird that its on the car at all ?

Well someones removed the acoustic valve at some point.
Nevermind, problem is not fixed.
However its only occuring when the car is cold now, seems to be fine once i drive it around for awhile.
Will upload some videos of what its been doing.
I HAVENT replaced the throttle position sensor,
accelerator pedal position sensor, throttle body, idle control valve, lambda sensor
Could it be an ECU problem maybe ? or worn relays in the fuse box ? worn wires by the ecu ?
Running out of ideas and patience haha

Please ignore my voice, was talking to my mechanic (South African branch of RS Tuning)
we both have no idea wtf is happening on this car anymore, when it was booked in with him there were no faults, it finally threw a fault up and its why we did the VVT sensor, he drove it around for a week with no issue, i get it back and three days in same problem (Note i changed nothing, didnt even fill up petrol)
Mechanically the car is tip top, it drives like an absolute dream untill it starts hiccuping.
We both think this must be electric

Videos don’t work fella, sh^ter you can’t get it running right though
Rusty Cup
Silly question but are all the earths as they should be? The earth underneath the airbox at the back of the gearbox was loose on my car and it acted like it was insane!! With the car off the road it took me a week to find the fault. Worth a look to see if its tight.
Not sure man, will check tomorrow, any other earthing points i should check ?
Im gonna clean the throttle body, TPS and Idle control valve tomorrow and hope that sorts her out
Everything was in order here,
car is still acting up
It gets progressively worse, im starting to think there is some build up or blockage ?
Came back from doing the work above and it was working fine,
the stuttering is getting more n more everyday
Mine did this when cold, it was the pre lambda sensor. If like the Phase 2 you can swap the pre and post lambda around to see if that's your issue.
Nothing worse than firing the parts cannon at these old Renaults to no avail
I'll check it out !
Thanks man.
ANyone else have any ideas i can check ?

Hope you get it sorted out - looks like a cracking example you have there!
Can't be that many of them in South Africa either, I would have thought?

Hey all
Decided to put some pics up
Car has been a nightmare lately, it drives but driving me up the wall with this nonsense.
Its a 2001 model with 156k km on the clock.
Hasnt had a clean in a month or so though, mostly been in shop or i've been working on it.
Lots of paint work n some dents to sort still, but need to get it driving right before going onto that

AND IT IS FINALLY FIXED,
The ECU was to blame, looks like the prior owner had someone messing around with the software.
Got the ECU map sent RSTUNING UK, Response was WTF IS THIS,
New map sent back and loaded by RSTUNING SA and the car is sorted
Long story shorty, if its being weird electrically and no faults are coming up
get the ECU checked first, get the map read by people who have the tools to do it

So just to carry on with this,
Yellow car has now had the break servo removed and repaired as the revs were very up and down, seems there was a leak,
also replaced the accelerator cable whilst the servo was out.
Cause why not.
It seems i can finally start on cosmetic items.
First up is a redone steering wheel and to fix the paint work / dents on bonnet
