an awful lot of Renault drivers suffer poor starting and a simple replacement of TDC or flywheel sensor solves it - might be carbon related - costs fifty quid or so plus a little labour in most places and main dealers don't seem to know about this common problem

The reason is because the steel tip of the TDC sensor which picks up a signal from the flywheel telling the ECU when to fire the spark plugs gets dirty after a year or two and cannot get the signal.

There is no need to pay up to ££90 for a new one at a Renault garage just simply remove it and clean the tip! also clean the connector.

normally sensor is on drive shaft , but in some Renault models speed sensor is taken from ABS unit- if ABS itself is fine it could be due to fault in wiring. on some models you check speedo cluster (instrument panel) by pressing knob on instrument panel for about 5 seconds and all the dials start moving. if it works then it means wiring problem. only Renault can solve this problem ( french technology)
