Hello

So over the past week my car had decided to play up. It was not pulling away not starting and just generally being a pain

The first issue was a snapped MAP sensor. Replaced that all problems were solved

Now the new problem is. When ever I try to give it a boot it judders, I can take it up the revs slowly but not fast

Does any one no what it could be

It's like the car can't process it fast enuf

Cheers everyone

Engine mounts? I found my Clio very juddery when I first picked it up, replacing the upper torque arm with the poweflex parts seemed to help loads. I've since done the lower engine mount too

If I build the revs slowly it's fine It's only when I put my foot down At around 3-4k revs it just won't go

Did you buy a genuine Renault map sensor or a cheap eBay special? The genuine one is around £70 iirc and it is a case of you really do get what you pay for! - Read reports of quite a few people going for the cheaper ones on eBay and having running issues.
