NOTESBefore dealing with this customer complaint, check that there are no faults except
DF312 Speed request, and 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?Are all the regeneration failures
linked to engine cut-off?
See group parameter (ET706

(PR794 to PR803 Stored
regeneration failure no.1 to no.10)
Is at least one status for group

Engine stopped: Check that the silencer outlet is
not blocked. Repair or replace the silencer, if
necessary.
Check the seal of the exhaust manifold on the
contact surface between the turbocharger and the
exhaust manifold.

Start the vehicle and check if the engine runs
better.
Is the engine running normally?The exhaust system is not the cause of the fault;
repeat the engine fault finding (see Customer
complaints - Fault finding chart).
Retighten the catalytic converter.
Loosen or separate the particle filter on the

TEST3 Low pressure circuit check
Check the fuel filter:
– Conformity of the fuel filter (correct part number and RENAULT filter).
– Positioning and degree of clogging 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 block it with a plug.
– Connect a pipe to the fuel filter inlet and insert the other end in a clean container with a capacity of approximately
5 litres.
– Disconnect the diesel fuel 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 fuel 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 low pressure circuit pipes, and repeat the
fault finding chart procedure or the procedure for
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.

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 located underneath it.
Check that the opening of the venturi (6 mm 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 that the fuel tank is correctly filled and that the fuel is correct (see Test 12 Diesel fuel conformity check).
If the diesel fuel is not correct:
– Replace the fuel (diesel fuel).
– Replace the fuel filter (diesel fuel).
– Bleed the low and high pressure fuel circuit (diesel fuel).

Check:
– the condition and fitting of the ducts (foreign, clogged, not joined, kinked, broken, pierced, cut bodies, 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.
– The pipes and the take-off point between the air duct and the turbocharging sensor.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
Check the air filter.
Check:
– That the inlet and outlet of the air filter unit is not blocked.
– the condition and the assembly of the air filter unit (disconnected, broken, pierced …).
– The cleanliness, the conformity and the non-distortion of the filter element.
– The air flowmeter: run Test 5 Air flowmeter.
Carry out the necessary repairs
Check:
– the condition of the damper valve,
– the tightening of the mounting bolts,
– cracks in the damper valve.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
