    Mine did this, turned out to be the TDC sensor in the gearbox, but that was damaged by a bit of the clutch coming away, which eventually lead to clutch failure and destroyed the bell housing of my gearbox!! lol

    Renault have broke my car!!!!

    Only cost a tenner for the repair, took about 25mins getting it back in, working fine!!! Yayy!! It only took me a few hours including waiting for the starter repair guy to open up after his lunch, Renault were saying it would be 7- 10 days before they could have it sorted! Saved time and money!!!
