ALP3 Injection noise
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:
If the injection noise occurs after starting from cold:
Check the low pressure diesel circuit priming.
Check the fuel heater supply.
Check the operation of the preheating system.
Check that fuel and engine temperatures are consistent.
If the injection noise occurs at idle speed:
Check the condition of the injector connector and pressure regulator terminals.
Check the conformity of the air flow signal: use fault finding procedures: PR132 Air flow or run test 3
Turbocharged air inlet circuit check.
If the complaint is still present, perform the injector fault finding procedure: run test 8 Poor injector operation.
does the injection noise occur at all engine speeds?
Run fault finding on the injectors: run test 8 Incorrect injector operation.
Check the condition of the injector connector and pressure regulator terminals.
Check the conformity of the fuel used, apply test 10 Diesel fuel conformity check.
If the diesel fuel is not correct: – Replace the diesel fuel.
–Change the diesel filter.
–Bleed the low and high pressure diesel circuit.
Check the conformity of the air flow signal: use the interpretation of the fault finding procedure PR132 Air flow.
If the customer complaint is still present:
Run command AC011 Rail pressure regulator.
Then apply the conformity check to confirm:
–the conformity of the fuel pressure between PR008 Rail pressure setpoint and PR038 Rail Pressure,
–the conformity of the pump fuel flow between PR157 Fuel flow setpoint and PR017 Fuel flow.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.

ALP4 Poor performance
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
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
Check:
–The conformity of the fuel used: apply test 10 Diesel fuel conformity check.
If the diesel fuel is not correct: – Replace the diesel fuel.
–Change the diesel filter.
–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.
The sealing and condition of the inlet circuit: apply test 3 Turbocharged air inlet circuit check.
–The condition of the air flowmeter: apply test 4 Air flowmeter.
–The turbocharger: apply test 9 Air line at the turbocharger, then test 5 Turbocharger control solenoid valve
check and test 6 Turbocharger.
check that the turbocharging pressure follows the increase in engine speed and that the loop difference with the
turbocharging pressure is low.
Otherwise, replace the turbocharger.

If the fault is still present
Check the conformity of the accelerator pedal position sensor, the brake pedal sensor, the atmospheric pressure
sensor, the exhaust gas recirculation valve and the damper valve.
–Check the consistency of the signal: of the air flowmeter, of the engine coolant temperature sensor, of the fuel
temperature sensor and of the engine speed.
Check the connections, continuity and absence of interference resistance on the air flow sensor (apply DF056 Air
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).
Check: – That the diesel filter is not clogged (for the test, see DF053 Rail pressure regulation function
2.def).
–That there are no leaks on the high and low pressure diesel circuits: apply test 3 Turbocharged
air inlet circuit check.
–That the oil vapour rebreathing system is connected.
–The flow regulator (blocked/seized, apply the interpretation for command: AC011 Rail pressure
regulator).
–Check the timing setting (and the position of the high pressure pump sprocket) (see MR 364 (MEGANE II) or
370 (SCENIC II), Mechanical, 11A, Top and front of engine).
–Check the cylinder compressions (balance of the cylinder compressions with the Compression test function
on the CLIP Technic diagnostic tool).
–Measure the engine compressions using the special tool.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.YES

–If the leak is on the component,
replace this and the high pressure
pipe(s) at the same time as the
component.
–If the leak is on the join of a high pressure
pipe and the component, remove the
high pressure pipe and perform a visual
inspection of the unions: if you find
damaged unions, change the faulty
component and the high pressure
pipe(s) removed at the same time as the
component.
Reminder:
do not replace the rail, pump or injector unless the union is found to be damaged during the visual
inspections.

Supplying the injection system with fuel from an additional tank.
This operation aims to detect possible faults in the low pressure supply system of a vehicle by replacing it entirely
with an additional tank.
Mode:
–Disconnect the diesel fuel supply pipe at the fuel filter inlet and seal it with a plug.
–Connect a pipe to the fuel filter inlet and insert the other end into a clean container which is approximately 5 litres
in volume.
–Disconnect the diesel fuel return pipe at the pump return and injector leak-off junction and seal it with a plug.
–Fill the container with clean diesel fuel.
–Start the engine and let the system drain itself of its air (there must not be any air bubbles in the return pipe).
