Perform the following road test (looking for a loss of power when accelerating under full load):
– in the highest gear ratio, accelerate fully,
– lift your foot off the accelerator pedal completely for at least 2 seconds,
– accelerate fully again,
– release the accelerator pedal completely,
– accelerate slightly.
If the loss of power was not noted during slight acceleration and if there was a loss of engine power during each
acceleration at full load, replace the diesel fuel injector return rail and its overpressure valve (see MR364
(Mégane II ph2), MR370 (Scénic II ph2), MR 395 (Laguna II ph2), 402 (Vel Satis ph2), 405 (Espace IV ph2)
Mechanical, 13B, Diesel injection, Diesel injector fuel return rail: Removal - Refitting).
Check the connection and positioning of the differential pressure sensor (see MR 395 (Laguna II ph2), 402 (Vel
Satis Ph2), 405 (Espace IV ph2), 364 (Mégane II ph2), 370 (Scénic II ph2) Mechanical, 19B, Exhaust, Particle
filter pressure sensor: Removal - Refitting).
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 (see Interpretation of statuses and
parameters).
Check the consistency of the signal from the air flowmeter, the engine coolant temperature sensor, the fuel
temperature sensor and the engine speed sensor.
Check the connections, the continuity and the absence of interference resistance of the following components:
– the air flowmeter (apply DF056 Air flow sensor circuit)
– the engine coolant temperature sensor (apply DF001 Coolant temperature sensor circuit)
– the fuel temperature sensor (apply DF098 Fuel temperature sensor circuit)
– the engine speed sensor (apply DF195 Engine speed/camshaft sensor consistency).

Check:
– That the diesel filter is not clogged.
– That there are no leaks on the high and low pressure diesel circuits: run Test 3 Low pressure circuit check.
–Test the high pressure fuel circuit:
Run scenario SC035 High pressure fuel circuit fault finding (see Interpretation of commands).
Continue by checking the following:
– The connection of the oil vapour rebreathing circuit.
– The pump pressure regulator (MPROP), (jamming - sticking); apply the interpretation of command AC226 Pump
pressure regulator.
– The rail pressure regulator (DRV), (jamming - sticking); apply the interpretation of command AC225 Rail
pressure regulator.
– Check the engine timing (and the position of the high pressure pump sprocket).
– Check the engine compressions: use a compression gauge, M9R hose end piece, part no. Mot. 1772 and apply
command VP036 Fuel supply inhibition (see Interpretation of commands).
If the fault is still present, contact the techline.

ALP5 Irregular engine operation
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 eliminated, perform the following checks.
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note, Laguna II ph2, Vel Satis ph2, Espace IV
ph2, Mégane II ph2, Scénic II ph2.
If the engine races during gear changes, if there is a floor mat, check that this is not blocking the accelerator pedal,
the brake pedal and the clutch pedal, then check the conformity of the clutch switch and the conformity of the
accelerator pedal sensor when the pedal is released (see PR086 Pedal potentiometer voltage gang 1 and
PR088 Pedal potentiometer voltage gang 2, Sensor supply).
Measure the resistance between connections 3BG and 3BL of component 149.
If the sensor resistance is not between:
741 Ω < X < 905 Ω at +20°C, replace the sensor.
Check the continuity and absence of interference resistance on the following connections:
•3BG between the components 120 and 149,
•3BL between components 120 and 149.
If the connection or connections are faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical
wiring repair, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Check the conformity of the engine earths (oxidation, tightness, etc.).
Check the mounting and condition (overheating) of the sensor.
Check the low pressure circuit: run Test 3 Low pressure circuit check.
Apply the air flow checking procedure, (see conformity in the interpretation of statuses and parameters).
Check the turbocharger: apply Test 7 Variable geometry turbocharger control.
If the fault is still present, test the high pressure fuel circuit:
Run scenario SC035 High pressure fuel circuit fault finding.
To interpret the result, apply the interpretation of command SC035 (see Interpretation of commands).

ALP6 Fuel system leaks
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 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 temperature until the diesel fuel reaches 40/50°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.
Does the priming bulb show traces of grease?
(Visual and tactile inspections)
Check 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.
Check the counter pressure valve located on
the fuel return line, after the injectors. Does the diesel filter show traces of grease?
(Visual and tactile inspections)
Do the fuel return pipes show traces of grease?
