Re: Dephaser pulley just changed, but now it's misfiring?

Thanks davelowe, I saw a few posts about misfiring in general, but not with the other problems I have. I think it's the cold start motor, but will call them today and kick up stink. Wish me luck!!

Re: dodgy sale

If you did then you might have a bit of help under the distance trading act, anything sold through those sites are covered. Contact TS and ask them if you have any chance in a s...

Dephaser pulley just changed, but now it's misfiring?

When I first start the engine (keyless) it drops revs really really low. I accelorate a little to get it going, and it seems to be jumping. It sounds like it's misfiring (according to the mechanic guy living opposite me) I luckily bought the car with a 4 year warrenty from the dealer so I'm not worr...

Re: Ok... So the random cutting out has stopped but... Odd grind

Thanks guys. Luckily I bought it from a dealer instead of the cheaper option if a private sale. I've had it a week today and this is te 2nd time it's been in the garage! The airbag light hasn't done it since, it was just while I was sitting in traffic which was odd! So greatful I bought the warranty...

Re: Renault Megane 1.6 petrol cc keeps cutting out?

Haha @andywillis, it's goig back today!

Alan, it does it at different times, only when it's cold, and seems to be revs dropping too low. When sitting waitig to pull off, 1st gear, clutch in, the revs drop to nothing and it cuts out. It does it in reverse, or forward gear, doesn't seem to be picky!

Re: Renault Megane 1.6 petrol cc keeps cutting out?

Sorry meant to say it's manual, but it's generally doing it while idle, Clutch or no clutch!

Renault Megane 1.6 petrol cc keeps cutting out?

Hi, I'm new here so help with abbreviations used would be wonderful. I have just picked up my new car, 2006 megane convertable. It's exactly the same as my previous car but the other one was getting old and a little rattly so I cruelly chopped it for the new one which I collectedyesterday. Driving a...
