lambda

MarcR 1-Lambda 0 Sorted at long last with a nice new bosch sensor When i started the car at first it was alittle over the place and hunting, Took it for a spin, came back and poped the comp on it, cleared the fault code and went out again and now its all ding dan dooo.

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...

I just read on a recent topic that shell v power is good for reducing the carbon on piston heads. I've always used this up until recently as shell garages are becoming harder to find where I live, my nearest is about 20 miles away ! I've often wondered how much difference it makes using high...

hi, It is with much regret that I am putting #322 Up for Sale. :( I want to pay off my student loan and get a cheap run about - I'm just not doing the Trophy justice driving it back and forward to work! Uploaded with ImageShack.us 2005/55 Renaultsport Clio Trophy - current milage is...

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)?

Had this pop on a couple of times so i drove up to my mate at Renault and got it plugged on the clip with 2 faults showing. 1, Misfire in cylinders 2&3 2, Bank 1 lambda probe (Before CAT) Been told to change HT leads, Coil pack and Spark plugs to see if this will sort the problem with the...

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.

Right I will get straight to the point as I have a list; I have owned my Trophy for now 2 months and when purchased I had timing belts done and an oil and filter change done. This weekend however I was doing a gearbox change and checked the oil now the dipstick read ½ litre low and when I...

Hello, As Cambelts are the new 'Hot Topic' for Trophy's at the Moment can we maybe Sticky this topic so it's easy to see. Can we start a list below of dealers that people have used and been happy with for getting the work done. Just need dealer name, if the service was good or not, price...

KTR de-cat pipe to fit onto a KTR exhaust. I bought it new at the end of last year with the exhaust system, and have done something in the region of 10,000 miles since. I took it off for the MOT last month and have been very much enjoying the reduced noise on my motorway commute. It does make...

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?

Anyone know this car ? seem to remember one a few years ago but cant find it ? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1720436.htm

driving home today the exhaust monitor warning light comes on when I get stuck in traffic. This goes of when moving. The handbook says go to renault soon as. Anyone else had this, if so does the t need a new exhaust. simon.

anyone had there Cat bored out by Mr Fish ? "Mark Fish Motorsport modifies the standard 200cpsi cat to allow for greater flow. The standard cat is very restrictive at the cat to centre section join." http://clio-motorsport.blogspot.com/

Fitted a BTB zorst a few months ago and noticed it was blowing from the cat join a few weeks ago and put it on list of things to do. Yesterday the gas monitor warning light came on. So today i covered the joint in zorst sealent for joins, clamped it back up and ran it for 20mins to harden it...

hi ive just got back from chipped uk for my custom remap and here is my results

Got into my car excited about heading to Bedford this evening and as I drove down my road, my excitement died.. The Exhaust emissions light was on and unlike before, it was static, not flashing.. Restarting the car did not clear it so I left it on the driveway and I shall be borrowing my fair...

I'm looking for interest on a potential second batch of these exhausts. It's the best fitted exhaust available for the 182 and sounds ace. Weighs around 6kg less than standard system. There are a few vids on you tube if you have a search. http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...33374763237041...

Hi all, I don't post much on here, but I thought there would be a higher number of Orbisoud exhaust owners here than on CS. I'm after a bit of feedback on the exhaust systems. I've had mine on the car for quite a few months and considering the price of the system I've got to admit I was...

hey everyone my engine management light came on last night and was wondering if anyone has any ideas why??? :? The problem is the car is running the same as before the light came on! im really confused to why it would come on! :( Cheers for your help

Hi everyone - I've been knocking around the idea of getting a Trophy for a while now, and I'm going to be buying one very soon now. Quick question: is it best to get a bog-stock example (what I've always done in the past) or does the Trophy respond well to a cat-back pipe and a panel filter...

Hi, Just bought a Trophy and I have my 1st question. I've noticed that I get a funny tinkling/whistling noise coming from what sounds like the passenger footwell or under the gear stick when I rev the car from about 300rpm all the way to the red line, this happens in any gear! I'm not sure if...

im so close to getting my trophy but its just failed its MOT on emmissions test,(being too high) the garage are not telling me anything as im a girl and think im stupid how serious is this as im going to be driving this everyday and as i keep saying im a girl dont want a dangerous car or an un...

Had the MOT done yesterday and when I picked it up the exhaust gas monitor light was on (engine shape symbol on the vertical right hand side). What may have caused this, will it go out and can I blame it on the garage or just one of those things that happen during MOT's? Renauly want £50 to...
