emissions

Hi all, I was cursing along at 50mph when all of a sudden an engine light came on the dash, i haved checked the oil and coolant and ran the OSD on the cars display and no faults were present just - - - - , has anyone else ran into this before?

Hello. Been off here for a while as all was good with 014 until yesterday. Its failed it's MOT because of emissions. I did see it before but... the CAT is missing and the down pipe from the manifold is welded onto the Milltek exhaust. Looks like someone removed it badly. Anyway is the new cat...

Hi guys im new on here but thought id start by saying hello :-) Ive got a 2005 182 clio and its just failed the MOT due to C02 been high, the garage told me its got a sports exhaust on "Doh" and he said the emissions are high as he things its been remapped & told me the ECU need setting back to...

I spotted you waiting at the very irritating temporary traffic lights coming into Queensbury, not often I see another one about this area!

I have a clio 2002 16 v 1,4 Since yesterday the engine works bad, seems like misfire, maybe a sensor or something that cause to not work 4 cylinders. with 800 rpm it has a small vibration and with 2-3000 rpm it has a bad noise and doest has power any idea ??!!

As title, Went down to see Nick at PureMotorsport today to have one of his nice new 182 manifold back systems fitted. I chose to decat instead of use his option of a race cat, purely to keep costs down. The system gave a proven 6.6 hp gain on the rolling road, back to back over stock on his...

My T requires a new exhaust system as the back boxes and middle box are breaking down inside, corrosion etc. I do not want a loud exhaust I want something very similar to standard ! I know there's not much to gain but also something that will slightly boost performance, so a good exhaust...

Hi Guys, Does anyone else who still frequents this forum have this set-up? I'm having a major issue with the fit between the 2 parts. I am getting a blowing which caused me to fail the MOT for emissions. My MOT centre managed to get the car through but after some spirited driving it is...

I recently read a promotion article for the new Clio 200 Turbo and was fairly disappointed tbh. The new car will apparently only have a paddle shifting gearbox and not a manual gearbox. For this very reason I am put off and my interest with staying with the clio evolution of models is somewhat...

Well thanks to steve i got myself a really nice set of headlights and he even fitted them to the trophy for me. People might not thing the are the brightest of lights but they make such a difference.

Well last week was the dreaded mot date. I refitted the cat and new lambda sensor ready for the emissions test, and threw the good o/s/f damper in the boot so my mate could fit it before the mot. The damper that was on was soft and made a horrible knocking nois over any bumps it was ridden...

I have only owned #372 for a few weeks now,loving it! The revs at idle are quite irregular,they aren't climbing,just sort of popping up and down. It's probably nothing,but was just wondering wether this is normal or it may be due to the cat being removed? Should it really be remapped if...

I apologise if these have been asked, I tried to do a search my my internet is really really lagging today. My car has started the dreading ticking from the cat to exhaust joint, only very slight but I know its there so its getting sorted, so I'm going to order the bolts, springs and gasket...

anyone had any problems with these?? mine seems to have ripped the hanger off the rear box on the o/s. is this a common fault??? only had a quick shufty but n/s seems to be braced, o/s not. bit of a shite design imho.

The other week i posted a topic on here about my trophy not feeling the same as it normally does and a little sluggish. It only became apparent to me the other day that.... 4 weeks ago i fitted some HID's, it was straight after this that i noticed the lack in performance. So i had a look tonight...

I always get my EML and it showed with a mifire so i have done the following. New Oil filter & oil New Air filter New Pollen filter New Coil pack New HT leads And i have just done my spark plugs which where bad. Now im getting the EML on with this code saying i need a bank 1 lambda probe...

My cat is going could I fit a de cat pipe on the trophy?

Heard a rumor that if you plug a Fault Code Reader in and cancel the emissions light (de-cat) it will go off and stay off? is this true? I would figure it would just come back on again after XXX-miles, does anyone have an informed insight or better a code reader (southampton way)?

Hi Guys and Girls, Can you please help and explain what the Exhaust Gas Monitor Warning light 'Flashing' actually means in English. The eplanation in the handbook is as helpful as usual. Can I drive the car slowly to the garaga 3 or 4 miles away? The tempature gauge has been fluctuating...

Hi all, My trophy has only been averaging between 26-28mpg recently where usually its easily 33-35mpg. Around a month ago I put a decat on it, do these affect mpg that much? Or could it be the lambda sensor? may have got damaged when putting in the decat?

Thinking of purchasing a de-cat pipe for a standard trophy exhaust and fitting it myself. Are there any guides anywhere? If not, what tools will I need for the job folks and anything I need to know? Thanks Ben.

i dunno about you guys, but sometimes my emissions light flashes at me when the cars sometimes cold or im stuck in traffic. i changed the spark plugs the other day and this instantly cured the problem! Renault say they will be fine for 72,000 miles but i think this could be a typing error...

Well after a day with a MR2 forum group at Trouqe of the devil it would appear I've come up alittle shy :( Never mind I had a feeling 182 was going to be abit illusive. Just for comparison has anyone else been dynoed recently and feel like sharing?

T200PHY Private plate for the trophy. £350 posted. On retension till jan 2011 all fees paid ready to transfer.

Just got the call to say she failed primarily for exhaust emissions. Not sure what to do. Its a powerflow catback system fitted at the moment but I assumed that because there is still a cat fitted it should pass? It could just be a faulty sensor apparently, but I'm preparing myself that I may...

Hi Guys, just taken the 182 for a test and shes failed :-( on the emissions, the tester said it will be the lambda sensor....but wich one??? before the cat, or after?? does anyone know where i could get one as i dont fancy paying renault prices, cheers.

here's one for the techies out there... do sensors just report or do they control? maybe it depends on the sensor???? i.e. if you get a fault code. could the fault likely be caused a dodgy sensor or could a dodgy sensor have altered the EMS to trip a fault?

i have done a search !! i promise but i cant find what im after so please bear with me. right my emissions light flashes on and off intermittently. not though any particular rev range or speed. i noticed aa have others of you, that this happens in winter first thing in the morning. however now...
