Renaut Clio Loss of Power Problem Solved

Just a quick note to say we had a problem with a 2004 Renault Clio 1.2 where would lose power for a few seconds about 2 minutes after the engine had been started. Once the power picked up again it was fine for the rest of the journey - so only affected by a cold engine.



We found the rev counter was unstable if the engine was cold and the car left running idle. After a couple of minutes it would almost stall and if you pressed the accelerator nothing happened until all of a sudden it would pick up and be fine.



It turned out to be the NGK Lambda Sensor.



If you have a similar problem I would definitely check the sensor as now it has been changed the car runs better than ever!



Hope this helps people with the same peoblem in the future.



Dave
