Cutting out...

[Legend@wheels]

Hi
Yesterday after i got out from the gas station the car started to cut out: in first gear when releasing the clutch the car get bump and revs cut ,than on second gear while driving around 2.5-3k rpm the car cut out and bump all the car.
What could cause it?
I had in mind tdc sensor and maf sensor..(maybe tb/fuel related too)
P.s didnt notice that on other gears and no lights on dash at all - but ill check later with obd.

Read fault codes with clip, there must be something in fault memory.
Did it splash that orange spanner light in instrument cluster when cutting out?

As i said once ill get in the car ill obd and see...
And as for the lights ,didnt notice

Generic OBD readers = forget.
Renault Clip diagnostics = win.

You mean the one that renault dealers use?
Or is it something out there in the market for us too

 

[Antti O]

Yep, that dealer software. Also available in ebay to buy.
Approx 150-170£

Cool ,link ?
It require laptop right?

Very sorry if this is a silly question, but did you put the right fuel in??

 

[Legend@wheels]

Yeah mate .
The only thing i can think of that related to fuel is its quality.. (and for that cant be sure lol )

That's what was angling at - different quality, rather than putting diesel in could be the cause though, if it's a crappy fuel...

Hah
But you know what? In a second thought- if it was fuel issue i think it would affect all gears and not only 1-2 .

Yeah very true! Just thought I would mention it, it's one to tick off the list at least

Quick update
Replaced maf sensor ,cleaned tdc,air temp sensor replaced.
Seemed to be better but it still cuts..
Especially first gear on 2800-3100rpm (after that or before that it never cuts only on these revs!)when i come off the throttle/pressing clutch .

Is it stalling or cutting out? You need to read fault codes. Most cheap readers will work ok on engine fault codes. Could be throttle body or pedal issue

Checked-no codes.
Tb was cleaned few months ago(approx 3-4k mileage)
Thats sucks

you dont have to get "clip" there other reanult specific obd2 readers out there..i have one got live data as well...

might be worth checking live data - on the lambda - could be that at fault causing wrong fuelling

First or second sen?

 

[Foxspeed]

First or second sen?

will be first one - thats the main one for fuelling - second one is more for obd2 emission standards failures

So i cant read it i suppose..
Sucks
It drives me crazy !
Maybe ill just replace it :/ another part to replace and hope for good i guess

yes - live data via obd2 - mine reads lambda function - all it does is produce a voltage pulse depending on fuelling - the ecu then adjust fuelling accordingly - live data reads the voltage pulse/change - should be quite alot/quickly if working correctly - if its slow points to an ageing sensor - just thinking of items it could be for your issue without it putting on an eml light or codes
