Check the sealing and condition of the inlet circuit: run test 3 Turbocharged air inlet circuit check and follow the
fault finding procedure.
Check that there are no foreign bodies on the flowmeter grille: run test 4 Air flowmeter and follow the fault finding
procedure.
Check that the exhaust is not blocked: run test 1 Exhaust pipe check and follow the related fault finding
procedure.
Check the consistency of the signal from the engine coolant temperature sensor.
Check the pressure regulator is working properly (see command AC011 Rail pressure regulator).
Check the operation of the injectors (excessive return leak, clogging, seizing): run test 8 Poor injector operation.
Check the engine timing (and the position of the high pressure pump sprocket).
Check the balance of the compressions, according to the power consumption during the starting phase
(Compression test menu on the CLIP Technic tool).
If you do not have the CLIP Technic or if there is an imbalance, use a compression gauge to get an accurate
measurement.

Is the engine running on all cylinders?
NO
Check the operation of the injectors: apply test 8 Incorrect injector
operation.
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

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.

TEST4 Air flowmeter
POLLUTION OF THE GRILLES:
Visual inspection: remove the flowmeter. There should be no foreign bodies in the grilles (see illustration on the
next page).
Do not clean the grilles using compressed air or any other procedure: this damages the sensors and
creates variations from the values displayed on the CLIP tool.
Check the sealing of the air circuit upstream of the air flowmeter:
disconnected or pierced pipes and air filter unit, seals present.
Replace the air flowmeter if necessary and clean upstream of this, if necessary.
ELECTRICAL COMPONENT BREAKAGE:
Visual inspection:
remove the flow sensor: the components must not be broken (see picture on following page).
Replace the air flowmeter if necessary.
OXIDATION OF THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS:
Visual inspection:
dismantle the air flowmeter, there should not be any green deposits on the electrical components.
Replace the air flowmeter if necessary.
CLOGGING OF THE AIR FLOWMETER:
Test:
–Check the values for conformity:
* During the first 5 seconds after starting:
–Coolant temperature: 80˚C,
–Engine speed: idle speed (800 ± 50 rpm);
–Measure the air flow: 47 kg/h ± 10.
–OCR* EGR valve: between - 10% and 0%.
* After the starting phase:
–Coolant temperature: 80˚C,
–Engine speed: idle speed (800 ± 50 rpm);
–Air flow measurement: 30 kg/h ± 5%;
–EGR valve OCR*: between 10% and 40%.
–Refer to DF056 Air flow sensor circuit 2.def, for the air flow sensor checks.
Replace the air flowmeter 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.
