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?

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).

TEST6 Fuel return rail valve check
This test consists of creating a vacuum downstream of the anti-return valve of the injector return rail and checking
whether fuel is drawn in by the valve.
Fitting:
Remove the rail protector.
Disconnect the union of the return rail on injector 4 (on the gearbox side).
Disconnect the union downstream of the anti-return valve.
Connect the 8 mm quick-release coupling.
Connect a transparent hose (resistant to diesel, length 60 cm and internal diameter 8 mm).
Connect a manual vacuum pump.
Gradually apply a vacuum up to 0.5 bar.
If more than a cm of diesel is quickly drawn into the hose, the valve is leaking. Stop the vacuum immediately.
Replace the diesel injector fuel return rail and its overpressure valve (see MR364 (Mégane II ph2), MR370 (Scénic
II ph2), MR 395 (Laguna II ph2), MR 402 (Vel-Satis ph2), MR405 (Espace IV ph2) Mechanical, 13B, Diesel
injection, Diesel injector fuel return rail: Removal - Refitting).
Otherwise, maintain the vacuum for 1 minute.
If less than a cm of diesel is drawn into the hose, the valve of the rail is not leaking.
