the conformity (or otherwise) of the parameters and statuses using the
diagnostic tool.
If the customer complaint is not eliminated, 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 increase the engine coolant temperature to 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.

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 sealing and condition of the inlet circuit by running Test 4 Turbocharged air inlet circuit check
Check the low pressure circuit
check the engine parameters:
– Check the update of the engine management computer calibration (last calibration).
– Check the conformity of the IMA codes (using the Identification screen on the Clip diagnostic tool).
– Check the charging circuit (see Technical Note 6014A Checking the charging circuit)
– To ensure the conformity of the engine speed signal, check:
* the wiring,
* the position of the flywheel and the condition of the flywheel teeth.
* the position and tightness of the engine speed sensor.
– Check the fuel flow correction from station to station, run Test 9 Poor injector operation.
Check the connections and wiring of the injectors.
Check the connections and wiring of the engine management computer to the injectors.
Repair if necessary.
Check the high pressure circuit (external leaks) (see the end of ALP6 Fuel circuit external leaks)
Check the timing setting (and the position of the high pressure pump pinion)
Check the lower engine:
– Check the compressions using the CLIP Technic diagnostic tool, Compression test or the special tool.
– Only check the engine stand if there is noise or excessive vibration when idling.
If the checks are correct, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a road test followed by a complete check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP 8 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.
According to the vehicle type, maximum visual access will either be 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
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
Replace the pipe concerned (see MR 364 (Mégane II), 370 (Scénic II) or 395 (Laguna II), Mechanical, 12B,
Turbocharging).
NOTighten the interface or the
concerned pipe.
End of procedure.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a road test followed by a complete check with the diagnostic tool.

Is the air filter fitted to the vehicle correct?
YES NO
Check the condition of the air filter
Visually inspect the condition of the filter section of

impurities)?
NO
Low pressure circuit check
Note:
According to the vehicle type, maximum visual
access will either be from above or from below.

(disconnected, cut, bent, pierced or kinked
pipes)?
NO
YESReplace the air filter (see MR 364

TEST 3 Low pressure circuit check
Check the fuel filter:
– Conformity of the fuel filter (correct part number and RENAULT filter),
– Positioning and clogging condition of the filter cartridge,
– Positioning and condition of the seals.
If there is metal swarf in the filter:
Replace the fuel filter, bleed the circuit and continue the fault finding procedure.
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 tube 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 return joint 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).
Is the customer complaint still present?
NO
YES
Are the low pressure circuit connections in order
and in good condition?
YES NO
If the low pressure circuit is in order, reconnect the various
pipes making up the low pressure circuit and repeat the
fault finding procedure in the fault finding chart or for the
fault that referred you to this test.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
