Run test 2 Air line at the turbocharger.
Run test 6: Turbocharger control solenoid valve check.
Is the vehicle equipped with a particle filter?
Start the engine and warm it up at idle speed for 10 min.
IMPORTANT
If the air filter was previously removed, refit it before starting the
engine (risk of aspirating foreign bodies into the air inlet circuit).
Perform several rapid and brief accelerations under no load.
Note:
The presence of smoke is often normal.
It is the quantity, density, colour and persistence that are deciding
factors.
Is the exhaust outlet producing abnormal smoke?Perform the fault finding of the
"particle filter" function, refer to the
TESTS or corresponding ALP
Refer to test 7 Turbocharger.The turbocharger is not faulty. There is probably another fault
in the engine. Consult the TEST or the corresponding ALP

ALP11 Particle filter warning light comes on too often
NOTESThis ALP is specific to Vdiag48.
Before dealing with this customer complaint, check that there are no faults
except DF312 Speed request, and check the conformity (or otherwise) of the
"parameters" and "statuses" using the diagnostic tool. Deal with the other faults
first.
If the customer complaint is not eliminated, perform the following checks.
Have the last 10 regeneration attempts failed?
Is the mileage of PR412 Mileage of last successful
regeneration less than all the parameters of group 2? (PR794
to PR803 Stored regeneration failure no. 1 to no. 10)Is at least one status in group 1
= STATUS4?
Symptom not
confirmed
Are all the regeneration failures linked to engine cut-off?
See parameter ET706 Stored engine status no.1 to ET715
Stored engine status no.10 (E.g. ET706 STOPPED)
Check the exhaust pipe for leaks or blockage. Repair if
necessary.
Perform After-Sales regeneration if it was not performed
previously (see Interpretation of commands, SC017 Particle
filter regeneration)

– Check the consistency between the IMA codes read on the CLIP diagnostic tool and the codes engraved on
the injector bodies,
– Check that the particle filter differential pressure sensor is correctly positioned and connected (see MR 364
(Megane II) or 370 (Scenic II), Mechanical, 19B Exhaust, Particle filter pressure sensor: Removal -
Refitting),
– Check the exhaust pipe see (Test1 Exhaust pipe check),
– Check the air inlet circuit see (Test 4 Turbocharged air inlet circuit check),
– Check the air flowmeter, (see Test 5 Air flowmeter),
– Check the turbocharger, (see Test 6 Turbocharger control solenoid valve test and Test 7 Turbocharger),
– Check the injectors, (see Test 10 Poor injector operation),
– Check the cylinder compressions.
If the fault has not been located and the customer complaint is still present, contact the Techline.

TEST2 Turbocharger air chain
Check for the air filter
Check the replacement interval of the air filter on 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?
Check the condition of the air filter
Visually inspect the condition of the filtering section of the air
filter.
Is either the air filter or its seal damaged?
Is the air filter fouled (does it contain a lot of impurities)?Replace the air filter (see MR 364
(Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic II),
Mechanical, 12A, Fuel mixture, Air
filter, Removal - Refitting).
Low pressure circuit check
Note:
Depending on the vehicle type, the best visual access will be
either from above or from below.
Visually inspect the condition of the following components:
– fresh air inlet scoop on the front panel of the vehicle,
– air inlet pipe to the air filter,
– air pipe of the filter until the compressor inlet,
– mountings of the air flowmeter.
Is one of these components incorrect (disconnected,
cut, bent, pierced or kinked pipes)?Replace the defective parts (see MR
364 (Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic II),

TEST3 Low pressure circuit check
HIGH PRESSURE PUMP
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 pipe to the fuel filter inlet and insert the other end in a clean container of approximately 5litres.
– Disconnect the diesel return pipe at the diesel temperature sensor (pump return and injector return join), and block
it using a plug.
– Connect a transparent pipe to the union of the diesel temperature sensor, and insert the other end in the container.
– 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?If the low pressure circuit is in order, reconnect
the various pipes of the low pressure circuit and
repeat the fault finding chart fault finding or of
the fault that referred you to this test.
Are the low pressure circuit connections in order
and in good condition?Carry out the necessary repairs.

CONTINUED
Check the condition and operation of the priming bulb.
Perform repairs if necessary and continue the test.
Check the condition of all the low pressure diesel pipes from the tank to the injection pump (in particular no pinching
of pipes).
If the fault is still present with a low fuel level, check the consistency of the actual fuel level and that indicated on
the instrument panel.
– The transfer pump is supplied via a Venturi pipe mounted underneath it.
Check that the opening of the venturi (6 to 8 mm in diameter) is not blocked by dirt contained in the fuel tank.
Check the priming of the low pressure diesel circuit.
Check the conformity of the fuel used by running test 11 Diesel fuel conformity check:
– Compare the fuel with some clean diesel in order to detect petrol, solvent, thinners, sulphuric acid (fuel will have
a whitish appearance), water or fuel oil.
If the diesel fuel is not correct:
– Replace the diesel fuel.
– Change the diesel filter.
– Bleed the low and high pressure diesel circuit.
Low pressure circuit correct.

TEST4 Checking the turbocharged air inlet circuit
Engine stopped:
Check the sealing of the low and high pressure air circuits (air leaks in or out, upstream/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, displaced, kinked, broken, pierced, cut, tightness
of the mounting bolts, etc.).
– the presence, condition and fitting of the seals,
– the presence and tightening of the clamps,
– the fitting of the turbocharger pressure sensor.
– the pipe and take-off point between the air duct and the turbocharging sensor
Carry out the necessary repairs
Checking the air filter.
Check:
– that the air filter unit inlet and outlet are not blocked,
– the condition and the assembly of the air filter unit (disconnected, broken, pierced, etc.),
– the cleanliness, conformity and the non-distortion of the filter element,
– The air flowmeter: run test 5: Air flowmeter.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
