    MY renault seems to be misfiring, i have a warning light flashing telling me to check my emissions.. what could possibly be the problem?

  • aidanconroy Nov 23, 2008

    Hi, I have a similar problem with a 1.4 Scenic. When left to idle, engine speed reduces gradually until idle speed is so rough, engine almost cuts out. When throttle applied, engine does not always respond immediately - behaves as if starved of fuel. Have replaced all four coils - no improvement. Would be grateful for any advice.

    Thanks,

    Aidan

    Hi my Megan has an intermittent starting problems when you press the clutch down. Sometime it will start and other times its dead but will eventually start again, the car is an 05 plate and only has 17k miles on the clock so i don't think that its a worn clutch. If anyone can help with any information that would lead to the solution i would be most grateful. My email addy is [email protected] Thanks

  • Travis cook Dec 28, 2012

    Ishy1984 the problem is probably coils or spark plugs..and the diagnostic socket in megane is in centre console where it meets centre console of dash

  • Anonymous Mar 13, 2014

    Renault said I would have to come in every six weeks to get it cleaned out as I don't do enough miles is this a fault on just the scenic or all renaults or are they just trying to make money of me as they said my engine would blow up they are calling it a fat filter can't find one on the manual

The socket is located under the centre console. slde the console back. there is a plastic panel there. pull it towards the windscreen to remove it. if the car is petrol it sonds like an ignition coil. if its a diesel it could be an injector. both easily fixed

It is most def the coil that needs replacing, if you have AA or RAC cover they will come out to you and it costs about 40 to replace, otherwise it costs a lot more if fixed at a garage. I am an expert as I have had to have all 4 coils replaced in last 2 years

  • Jonjames21 Apr 04, 2012

    I'm with green flag will they change a coil and how do you know it's the coil because nothing came up on the diginostics but car starts fine wen cold but wen warm it doesn't coil?
