EGR PROGRAMMING CUT-OFF
NOTESSpecial notes:
Only perform these tests if the status does not correspond with the system
programming functions.
NONE
No EGR cut-off, the EGR valve is working properly in accordance with the
computer programs.
Switch off the ignition and wait 1 minute.
Switch the ignition on and check for faults.
Check the engine battery voltage with the engine stopped and then running.
If no faults are present or stored, restart the vehicle and test at idle speed.
Do not accelerate too much and reach an engine speed that is too high.
Accelerate above idling speed for a few seconds.
Check that the clutch pedal (ET405 Clutch pedal switch) is not pressed and that the
vehicle has stopped completely.
Test the present and stored faults and repair.
Reinitialise the EGR offsets by consulting the interpretation of command
SC036 Reinitialisation of programming and select EGR valve".
Allow the engine to heat up until this cut-off disappears.
Check that the regeneration of the particle filter in progress has completely finished.
Allow the engine to cool until this cut-off disappears.
Too low atmospheric pressure, the EGR valve is disabled.
AFTER REPAIRSwitch off the ignition and carry out a road test followed by a test with the diagnostic
tool.

conformity (or otherwise) of the parameters and statuses, using the diagnostic
tool.
If the customer complaint is not ironed out, perform the following checks:
IMPORTANT
In the event of the engine overheating above 119˚C, the computer will voluntarily limit the fuel flow
(overheating warning light comes on from 115˚C).
–Please observe the cleanliness guidelines and safety advice.
Is the poor performance accompanied by smoke?
YES

–Bleed the low and high pressure diesel circuit.
–The conformity of the assembly of the injectors (presence and conformity of the sealing washer).
Checking procedure:
–Take a straightedge approximately 40 cm long and place it on the 4 injectors. The straightedge should rest on
the 4 injectors.
–If 1 injector protrudes, remove the injector and check that the washer is correct.
–If one injector does not touch the straightedge (clearance of more than 1 mm), remove the injector and check
that the washer is present.
–Clean the injector well and the injector, refit the injector with its correct sealing washer.

flow sensor circuit, 2.def), the engine coolant temperature sensor (apply DF001 Coolant circuit, 1.def), and the
engine speed (apply DF195 Camshaft sensor/engine speed consistency, 2.def).

ALP6 External leaks from the fuel circuit
NOTESBefore analysing this customer complaint, check that there are no faults, and the
conformity (or otherwise) of the parameters and statuses, using the diagnostic
tool.
If the customer complaint is not ironed out, perform the following checks:
IMPORTANT
Please observe the cleanliness guidelines and safety advice.
Procedure for checking for an external leak on the fuel circuit:
Clean away traces of grease with clean thinner and wipe the part or parts concerned with cleaning cloths.
Start the engine and raise the engine coolant temperature until the diesel fuel reaches 80˚C.
Stop the engine and check for traces of grease on the part or parts concerned.
If this is the case, replace the part or parts concerned.
Bleed the fuel circuit and continue the checks.
Does the priming bulb show traces of grease?
(Visual and tactile inspections)
(If there is a priming bulb)YES
NO
Does the diesel filter show traces of grease?
(Visual and tactile inspections)YES
NO
Do the fuel return pipes show traces of grease?
(Visual and tactile inspections)
NO
YESCheck the assembly of the components
and the condition of the seal at the union of
the two components, if the leak is at the
seal.
Replace the part or the parts concerned.
Bleed the fuel circuit and continue the
checks.
AFTER REPAIRcarry out a road test followed by a complete check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP8 Oil leaks from the turbocharger
NOTESBefore dealing with this customer complaint, check that there are no faults, and
the conformity (or otherwise) of the parameters and statuses using the
diagnostic tool.
If the customer complaint is not ironed out, perform the following checks:
Check the area around the turbocharger
Note:
An oil leak does not correspond always to a turbocharger fault, the oil leak can arise from the area around the
turbocharger.
According to the vehicle type, maximum visual access will either be from above or from below.
1Do not start the engine.
Check the area around the turbocharger and identify the origin of the leaks.
Clean the oil traces on the turbocharger.
2start the engine and let it warm up for several minutes.
IMPORTANT
If the air filter was removed previously, refit it before starting the engine (risks foreign matter entering the air inlet
circuit).
Accelerate with no load several times, progressively increasing the duration before releasing the accelerator pedal.
Visually inspect the exterior condition of the fuel supply pipes and the turbocharger oil return and the area around it.
Identify the origin of the leaks.
Is an oil leak present at the air compressor inlet or outlet?
YESNO
Check the air compressor inlet or outlet
Check for a loose interface (inlet or outlet) that is the cause of the air leak.
Note:
it is normal to find traces of oil inside the pipes at the turbocharger inlet or outlet as the air
passing into the compressor is laden with oil from the engine rebreathing circuit.
Is the suspected interface properly tightened?
YES NO
Replace the pipe concerned (see MR
364 (Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic II),
Mechanical systems, 12B,
turbocharging).Tighten the interface or the concerned
pipe.
End of procedure.
