Idle issue and looking to remap

[alexadams182]

Hi again my clio 182 has poor idle once hot since I've owned and after the cambelt/dephaser didn't change it has always been the same so it's not the timing engine is mechanically sound and drives very well, it bothers me as when it ticks over the car shakes abit and some puffing noise from the exhaust are they meant to be like this when I saw mike woodford Michael woodford Motorsport I'm local to him and I know his brother he said there not and he is a good Renault specialist he said it was the dephaser so that was done with the belt still the same. I swapped a map sensor round just thought I'd try that no difference I'm thinking lamba sensor now, mike says it needs to be idling normal so he can remap it and need it sorted ASAP any ideas

Mine idles the same. Belts done, been mapped. No problems.

Mine idles spot on hot or cold.

It idles just a bit lumpy

It idles fine just a bit lumpy

Probably nothing to worry about then tbh.

Lump

Hi again my clio 182 has lumpy idle once hot since I've owned and after the cambelt/dephaser didn't change it has always been the same so it's not the timing engine is mechanically sound and drives very well, it bothers me as when it ticks over the car shakes abit and some puffing noise from the exhaust are they meant to be like this when I saw mike woodford Michael woodford Motorsport I'm local to him and I know his brother he said there not and he is a good Renault specialist he said it was the dephaser so that was done with the belt still the same.

So they all have a lumpy idle when a specialist said they shouldn't unless he's wrong I'd much doubt that

 

[LeeRS]

Take it to him then?

Idle should be pretty much spot on. But it depends on your definition of lumpy.

I've had some where owner has said car is OK but runs like a bag of spanners and others say the other way round!!

Get it on live data and see what lambda is doing and take it from there.
