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.

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.

Is an oil leak present only at the casing of the compressor section?
YES NO
The turbocharger is not
faulty.
The oil is coming from
another engine
component and the oil
is running into the
turbocharger.Is an oil leak present at the turbocharger oil supply inlet or outlet?
YES NO
Check the turbocharger oil supply inlet and outlet
Check for a loose interface (inlet or outlet) that is the cause of
the oil leak.
Is the suspected interface properly tightened?
YES NO
Replace only the seal or the
pipe of the section
concerned (see MR 364
(Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic

If the engine is equipped accordingly, check:
–that the damper valve is open (AC012 Damper
valve, step B).
–the condition of the damper valve:
–the tightness of the mounting bolts,
–cracks in the damper valve.

TEST3 Checking the turbocharged air inlet circuit
Engine stopped: Check the low and high pressure
air circuit sealing (air leaks in or out, upstream or
downstream of the turbocharger).Check the parts that are abnormally greasy of the
circuit and reveal a lack of tightness.
Check:
–the condition and fitting of the ducts (foreign
bodies, clogged, disconnected, pinched, broken,
holed, cut, tightness of the mounting bolts, etc.).
–the presence, condition and fitting of the seals.
–the present and tightening of the clamps.
–The fitting of the turbocharging pressure sensor.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
Check:
–That the air filter unit inlet and outlet are not
blocked.
–The condition and fitting of the air filter unit
(disconnected, broken, perforated, etc.).
–The cleanliness, conformity and the absence of
deformation of the filter element.
–The air flow sensor: apply test 4.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
Check that there is no leak at the exhaust manifold,
in particular at the exhaust manifold/turbocharger
connection.
Check the exhaust system: apply test 1.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
Check the condition of the intercooler:
–clogging,
–leaks (vehicle stationary, stabilise the engine
speed between 3500 rpm and 4000 rpm and
check that there are no leaks).
Replace the intercooler if necessary.

TEST5 Turbocharger control solenoid valve test
Start the engine and let it run at idle speed for 1 min.
Check the battery voltage.
If the value of PR071 Computer power supply voltage is greater than 13 V, continue the test.
If not, check the charging circuit, then carry out a road test to confirm that the fault has disappeared.
Checking the vacuum at the pressure regulator inlet
Let the engine idle.
Check the engine temperature using the CLIP parameter PR064 Coolant temperature.
Let the engine warm up until the temperature reaches 80˚C.
Disconnect the vacuum pipe from the pressure regulator end piece.
Connect a vacuum pressure gauge to the end of the disconnected pipe and put it in the vacuum measurement
position.
Accelerate rapidly by fully depressing the accelerator pedal and releasing it immediately.
The total duration of pressing and holding in the full load position must not exceed 1 second.
During this acceleration, the engine speed must reach a value between 3000 and 4000 rpm.
Repeat the operation three times.
Read the maximum vacuum displayed by the pressure gauge during the increase in speed, the decrease in speed
and after returning to idle speed.
Tolerance intervals to be respected for the vacuum value:
-1 bar < CORRECT vacuum value < - 0.6 bar
-0.6 bar < INCORRECT vacuum value < 0 bar
Does the vacuum at the turbocharger pressure regulator inlet, displayed by the pressure gauge, respect
the tolerance interval?
NO YES
The solenoid valve is correct.
If the customer complaint is Smoke from the
exhaust, apply ALP11 Smoke from the exhaust.
Otherwise, apply test 6 Turbocharger.
