The 120bhp does not have a FAP, the 130bhp does. Probably says on your V5 logbook which bhp you have if you're not sure.

Thanks for the replies.

The door sticker says it is a 1.9 dci 130 - but no mention of FAP.

I don't yet have the V5 as I've just bought the car, but I suspect that'll just tell me it is 130 bhp.

The service book says the service interval for both FAP and non-FAP is 9,000 miles.

I only want to know so I can buy the correct grade of oil for top-ups. I shall call in and ask the Renault garage. Thanks for taking the time to respond,

Being a FAP engine you need an oil that meets Renault spec RN0720.
