Started out with the 405 and V50, kit car still dissolving into a field...

Bought a 405 Estate today.

V50 exiting shortly.

A very quiet year.

No such luck it has had a new fuel line, new filter, new injectors, new rail pressure reg, new high pressure pump and the cunt still plays up. It hunts on tick over but not all the time and it can cut out out if you boot it hard up hill and get the revs over 3k it cuts and puts the red eml on. Ignition cycling gets it going again still at the moment. Any ideas are welcomed I really thought the high pressure pump would of fixed it.
What's the code for?

Maybe needs someone driving it and someone watching/graphing the live data to see what's happening when booted in that scenario.
It puts up a fuel pressure fault code. I think the only thing left is wiring loom. Renault are notorious for shit wiring.
We got trapped joining the ferry a couple of years ago in a 13 plate master.

£800 later and a new tank pump and it was still iffy. Turned out it was the rear harness section that Renault had a revised part for. Great.

They also like to drop a bit into the egr cooler that flags an injection fault up. If you’re really unlucky that bit makes it’s way into the turbo vanes.
Just when I thought I was out they dragged me back in.
