My vavler died today! just went and got my steering column welded up and what happens? half way there it starts making a horrible noise as am accelerating and stuttering and spluttering on tick over! reckon a sensor or somehthings gone as the engine management has obviosly cut into emergency get me home mode cuz the cars still runs....just! i tried the obvious one of water in the injection computer but not that, so i aint got a clue which sensor it is likely to be or where? is this a job for renault? i'd rather not you see but i need the car and soon!!!!

any advice would be greatly appreciated!

hmmmm. Not sure mate, it could be anything. When i had bad running problems, eg cutting out and rev counter going ape shit and also the car not running at all sometimes. It was a dodgy earth. I tried the ecu but it was fine. Btw, there is a technical section on here :wink:
