Hello everyone, my Clio has been bothering me with sporadic ignition oscillations as soon as it is warm for quite some time now. I have recently had the problems also when turning up in idle and accelerating. The control unit recently reports DF110 (destructive misignition) as well as misignition on cylinders 1 and 3. The following possible sources of error have already been tested: – spark plugs: all only 15Tkm in and optically, exchange between the cylinders does not allow the error to move – ignition cable: au ch only 15Tkm in it, no nibble or scrubbing tracks – two-circuit ignition coil: Exchanged for original new part of Renault (old had cracks in plastic), no improvement – compression: All cylinders between 12 and 13 bar – injection valves: runtime/age unknown, replacement of injection valves does not make the error move I pull cylinder 2 off the ignition coil the engine hardly runs any more, with cylinder 3 the least deterioration in the round run. Since the two-circuit ignition coil always zw a cylinder fired at the same time (1 and 4 as well as 2 and 3) I have put cylinder 3 at coil output 2. Now the engine with cylinder 1-3-4 runs just as well as before with 1-2-4. If I hadn’t already changed the ignition coil for a new one, I would have been the first suspect. What is left of error causes? -OT-Geber? -Control unit? I would be grateful for suggestions or corrections of my previous analysis. MfG Robert

Hi, I’m driving a Renault mode BJ 2004. He ran 65,000 km. At the Renault dealer I had a maintenance table and an estimate for a timing belt change printed. According to the maintenance table, the timing belt has to be changed every 5 years or at 120,000 km. My car has now considerably less km (65,000), but is 7 years old, i.e. from the years already 2 years above the border. So should the timing belt be changed? Then to Angebo t of the Renault dealer: Timing belts incl. water pump renew and V-belt set with tensioning guide role renew= 799.04 Euro. Is this too expensive? Here are some individual items: Water pump Zc11 = 100.45 Rep.Set Nm11=171,90 Rep.Set Yq15= 63,56 Working time 6,1 x 81= 494,10 Then there was another small item, on the total amount there was a special discount. Complete price, as mentioned: 799 Euro. My questions: 1.Is the timing belt change necessary? 2.Is the offer of the Renault specialist works att OK? 3. The appointment is next week Friday. Should I not drive at all until then or can I drive very short distances (max 5km)?

Hello together, have read out the error memory of my Clio 4 Diesel BJ2013 (dci90) and get the error P1485 – according to Google search a jammed EGR valve. As the car next month to the HU/AU I have to show it to the dealer, because a working exhaust gas cleaning can be of advantage for the plaque yes 😛 That confirms to me: EGR valve added / clamped. Must be completely changed. Cost point: 600€. That surprised me then nevertheless. Is in itself “only” a ve The most expensive point on the estimate is an exhaust pipe with an exhaust pipe for just under 331€ – I was surprised that a complete exhaust pipe has to be replaced because of a valve… I wanted to listen to your opinion. Does this really have to be changed so comprehensively? Can a cleaning make sense? Or are the parts always changed as soon as they are clamped? Bzw can generally explain to me what the difference between the valves is. I’m a little surprised that the EGR in the Clio is probably only hanging so late in the exhaust line. I’m curious to hear from you. Thank you in advance!

Hello everyone, have above display in mode D4F 740 (3333/ACI), BJ 07, 190 tkm. After reading out with clip: power supply ABS control gear. After deletion and repeated testing allea ok. But: as soon as the box drives, the message comes back permanently. Then search for defective wheel sensors. Could not find any brake discs/drums… There are also no cables to find. Strange. Also the ABS without ESP would have to have that! Now I wanted to check the power supply of the ECU, is That with 36 pins. But how the hell do I get the plug off? There must be a rigging that does not know Clio and workshop instructions are available. Who of the half-/full-pros can/will help me? mfg eddie [Transferred from motor talk from the topic ‘Warning in display “brake system defective” in mode’.]

Hello everyone, I hope I’m right here, even if R5 is not on the list. To make it short. I have a stainless R5, born 1986, standing in front of the door. But the box brings me to despair. About 4 weeks ago I drove nonstop over 600 km by car. At the destination arrived, car parked, drank a coffee and then wanted to drive into a pub. I arrived about 5 km then the engine just stops. After about an hour vain try to get a taxi, Zü The next day, he went to a Renault workshop to inspect. New candles, oil filters, oil. It was found that all the lights had been burned in the entire rear area. For this reason, there was a cable break between tailgate and chassis. All the trucks were replaced. I lead home. So back the 600 km. But made a stop at a stop. When I wanted to start again, he didn’t jump on. I decided that I would have a coffee for the time being. The remaining 200 km took the car without any problems. Arrived back home, parked and the next morning he immediately jumped on again. In the following time the distances that I can put back became shorter and shorter. After consultation with the Renault workshop I have the OT-Geber, alternator (light flickered) and today the ignition coil (the complete ignition box was too expensive for me) against new parts. cht. Well, after today’s ignition coil change he just ran about 1km. Then he turned off without a reason and without a noise (as always). Like someone turned the ignition key. Who knows advice.

Hello municipality, with my wife her Clio was replaced 4 months ago the clutch on guarantee, takeover of 100 % by Renault. Now seems to show again a defect on the clutch, probably outback bearings or gears. It is a rattle to hear clackers, when you step the clutch pedal, the noise has disappeared, as soon as you let go of the clutch again, starts the clacking again. As already with Renault, the workshop master also says that the Geräusc Since the clutch is virtually new, we wanted a new exchange, but we were informed that there is no guarantee or warranty requirements at 100% takeover, is that so correct? It can not be that you get no warranty on new parts !? Engine is the 0.9TcE, my wife unfortunately only has problems with the “carrier”. Clio 4 GT-Line 0.9TcE 90PS. Thank you for your efforts.

Hello all, I have a question in the round. With my 2000 Clio 1.2 58 HP the oil change is on. I have currently 5w40 in it. Is that good for a Clio or should I rather take 10w40. I heard that with the 5w40 the seals should go capput. Is that really so? What can you recommend me? L.G. Janny

Hello, otherwise I am on the way to another brand here in the forum, but I hope you will also welcome me here? My wife wants a new car and I suspect that I can’t turn her down. From old Renault connectedness (2xR4, 2xR5) she got into the new Clio. As 5 doorr, exception, with 100hp. It should be ordered in any case in addition the mp3 radio, the seat heating, the sliding roof, ESP and electr. exterior mirror. In addition, parking aid at the rear and the light and rain sensor. Do you have experience with the new Clio, with the engine, with the model or the equipment variants? I am grateful for all tips and opinions. the search did not show much, that is already quite positive… Best greeting hirotake

Good day, all of you, here is a short info about unlit FH-switches. I got the GT at the beginning of February and immediately noticed that the FH-switches are not illuminated when the light is switched on (all at the 5T). At the beginning of March came the info from the friendly dealer that the release of Renault is there and the deficiency can be corrected. I am now waiting for an appointment (partly best.) I will keep you informed about this. MfG borstelino
