ALP 5 Irregular engine operation
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 eliminated, perform the following checks.
If the engine bucks or races during gear changes, check the conformity of the clutch switch.
If the fault is still present:
– Ensure that the correct fuel is being used. Run test 5 Diesel fuel conformity check.
– Check the low pressure diesel circuit priming.
– Check the conformity of the low-pressure circuit connections.
– Check the conformity of the diesel filter and that it is not saturated with water (replace the filter if necessary).
– Check that there are no air bubbles between the filter and the high pressure pump.
– Check the conformity of the rail pressure (warm engine):
± 25 bar around the rail pressure value at idle speed, (the minimum to maximum variations in the rail
pressure at idle speed should not exceed 50 bar).
approximately 1350 bar under load with foot hard down on the accelerator.
In the event of a fault, apply the interpretation of command AC011 Rail pressure regulator.
Check the conformity of the air flow, apply the interpretation of parameter PR132 Air flow.
If the fault is still present:
– Check the injector operation using Test 1 Injector test.
– Check cylinder balancing using the CLIP function, Compression test physical measurement icon.
– Check engine compression where necessary.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a road test followed by a complete check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP 7 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 eliminated, 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.
Depending on the vehicle type, the best visual access will be either from above or from below.
1-Do not start the engine.
Check the area around the turbocharger and identify the origin of the leaks.
Clean the oil traces on the turbocharger.
2- Start 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?
YES
NO
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a road test followed by a complete check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP 9 Exhaust fumes
Run test 2 Air line at the turbocharger.
Run test 3 Turbocharger control solenoid valve check
Is the vehicle equipped with a particle filter?
NO
Start the engine and warm it up at idle speed for
10 minutes.
IMPORTANT
If the air filter was removed previously, refit it before
starting the engine (risks foreign matter entering
the air inlet circuit).
Perform several rapid and brief accelerations under
no load.
Note:
The presence of smoke is often normal.
The quantity, density, colour and persistence
of the smoke are the important factors.
Is the exhaust outlet producing abnormal
smoke?
YES
Consult test 4 Turbocharger.
YES
Perform the fault finding of the "particle filter"
function, refer to the TESTS or corresponding
ALP.
NOThe turbocharger is not faulty. Another engine
fault is probably present. Consult the TEST
or the corresponding ALP.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a road test followed by a complete check with the diagnostic tool.

TEST 2 Turbocharger air chain
Check for an air filter.
Check the replacement frequency for the air filter in the Maintenance Booklet.
Compare the part numbers of the air filter fitted to the vehicle and that of the air filter recommended by the
manufacturer.
Check the air filter direction of fitting.
Is the air filter fitted to the vehicle correct?
YES
Check the condition of the air filter.
Visually inspect the condition of the filter section of
the air filter.
Is the air filter or its seal damaged?
Is the air filter clogged (does it contain a lot of
impurities)?
NO
Low pressure circuit check
Note:
According to the vehicle type, maximum visual
access will either be from above or from below.
Visually inspect the condition of the following
components:
– fresh air inlet scoop on the front end panel of the
vehicle,
– air filter air inlet pipe,
– filter air pipe up to the compressor inlet,
– air flowmeter mountings.
Is one of these components incorrect
(disconnected, cut, bent, pierced or kinked
pipes)?
NO
NO
YES
Replace the air filter (see MR 364 (Mégane II)
or 370 (Scénic II), Mechanical, 12A, Fuel
mixture,
Air filter,

).
YESReplace the defective parts (see MR 364
(Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic II), Mechanical,
12B, Turbocharging).

WARNING
During this operation, it is essential to:
– refrain from smoking or bringing incandescent objects close to the work area,
– protect yourself against fuel splashes due to residual pressure in the pipes,
– wear safety goggles with side guards,
– wear leaktight gloves (Nitrile type).
IMPORTANT
– To avoid any corrosion or damage, protect the areas on which fuel is likely to run.
– To prevent impurities from entering the circuit, place protective plugs on all fuel circuit components
exposed to the open air.
Preparations:
Weigh an empty 1300 ml plastic cup (part no. 77 11 171 413) with its cover (part no. 77 11 171 416) using
electronic scales such as those used in body paint workshops (example: PANDA part no. 77 11 224 995).
Record the weight of the empty plastic cup.
This type of plastic cup is used to prepare paint.
Remove 1 L of fuel at the diesel filter outlet (see MR 364 (Mégane) or 370 (Scénic), Mechanical, 19C, Tank,
Fuel tank: Draining), using a pneumatic transfer pump (part no. 634-200) and place it in the 1300 ml plastic cup.
Cover the plastic cup with its cover and allow it to settle for approximately 2 minutes.
Is the fuel cloudy or does it
separate into two parts?Presence of water in diesel fuel, the fuel is not compliant.
Drain the fuel circuit, including the tank (see MR 364 (Mégane)
or 370 (Scénic), Mechanical, 19C, Tank, Fuel Tank:
