Fault finding – Cleanliness guidelines
I - RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CONTAMINATION
The high pressure direct injection system is highly sensitive to contamination. The risks associated with
contamination are:
–damage to or destruction of the high pressure injection system,
–components jamming,
–a component leaking.
All After-Sales operations must be performed under very clean conditions. This means that no impurities (particles a
few microns in size) should have entered the system during dismantling.
The cleanliness principle must be applied from the filter to the injectors.
What are the sources of contamination?
metal or plastic swarf,
–paint,
–fibres:
–from cardboard,
–from brushes,
–from paper,
–from clothing,
–from cloths,
–foreign bodies such as hair,
–ambient air,
–etc.
II - NOTES TO BE FOLLOWED BEFORE ANY OPERATION
Check that you have plugs for the unions to be opened (set of plugs available from the Parts Department). The plugs
are single-use only. After use, they must be discarded (once used they are soiled and cleaning is not sufficient to
make them reusable). Unused plugs must be discarded.IMPORTANT
Cleaning the engine using a high pressure washer is prohibited because of the risk of damaging connections. In
addition, moisture may collect in the connectors and create electrical connection faults.
IMPORTANT
Before any work is carried out on the high pressure injection system, protect:
–the accessories and timing belts,
–the electrical accessories, (starter, alternator, electric power-assisted steering pump),
–the flywheel surface, to prevent any diesel from running onto the clutch friction plate.

Is the engine running on all cylinders?
NO
Check the operation of the injectors: apply test 8 Incorrect injector
operation.
If the fault is still present
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.
–Check the consistency of the signal: of the air flowmeter, of the engine coolant temperature sensor, of the fuel
temperature sensor and of the engine speed.
Check the connections, continuity and absence of interference resistance on the air flow sensor (apply DF056 Air
flow sensor circuit, 2.def), the engine coolant temperature sensor (apply DF001 Coolant circuit, 1.def), and the
engine speed (apply DF195 Camshaft sensor/engine speed consistency, 2.def).
Check: – That the diesel filter is not clogged (for the test, see DF053 Rail pressure regulation function
2.def).
–That there are no leaks on the high and low pressure diesel circuits: apply test 3 Turbocharged
air inlet circuit check.
–That the oil vapour rebreathing system is connected.
–The flow regulator (blocked/seized, apply the interpretation for command: AC011 Rail pressure
regulator).
–Check the timing setting (and the position of the high pressure pump sprocket) (see MR 364 (MEGANE II) or
370 (SCENIC II), Mechanical, 11A, Top and front of engine).
–Check the cylinder compressions (balance of the cylinder compressions with the Compression test function
on the CLIP Technic diagnostic tool).
–Measure the engine compressions using the special tool.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.YES

ALP8 Oil leaks from the turbocharger
NOTESBefore dealing with 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 ironed out, perform the following checks:
Check the area around the turbocharger
Note:
An oil leak does not correspond always to a turbocharger fault, the oil leak can arise from the area around the
turbocharger.
According to the vehicle type, maximum visual access will either be from above or from below.
1Do not start the engine.
Check the area around the turbocharger and identify the origin of the leaks.
Clean the oil traces on the turbocharger.
2start the engine and let it warm up for several minutes.
IMPORTANT
If the air filter was removed previously, refit it before starting the engine (risks foreign matter entering the air inlet
circuit).
Accelerate with no load several times, progressively increasing the duration before releasing the accelerator pedal.
Visually inspect the exterior condition of the fuel supply pipes and the turbocharger oil return and the area around it.
Identify the origin of the leaks.
Is an oil leak present at the air compressor inlet or outlet?
YESNO
Check the air compressor inlet or outlet
Check for a loose interface (inlet or outlet) that is the cause of the air leak.
Note:
it is normal to find traces of oil inside the pipes at the turbocharger inlet or outlet as the air
passing into the compressor is laden with oil from the engine rebreathing circuit.
Is the suspected interface properly tightened?
YES NO
Replace the pipe concerned (see MR
364 (Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic II),
Mechanical systems, 12B,
turbocharging).Tighten the interface or the concerned
pipe.
End of procedure.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a road test followed by a complete check with the diagnostic tool.

CONTINUED 1
Is an oil leak present only at the casing of the compressor section?
YES NO
The turbocharger is not
faulty.
The oil is coming from
another engine
component and the oil
is running into the
turbocharger.Is an oil leak present at the turbocharger oil supply inlet or outlet?
YES NO
Check the turbocharger oil supply inlet and outlet
Check for a loose interface (inlet or outlet) that is the cause of
the oil leak.
Is the suspected interface properly tightened?
YES NO
Replace only the seal or the
pipe of the section
concerned (see MR 364
(Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic
II), Mechanical, 12B,
Turbocharging).Tighten the pipe concerned.

Is there an oil leak around the interfaces of the turbine housing and the exhaust pipes?
YESNO
The turbocharger is not faulty. There is probably another fault in the
engine.
Mark the component that is the source of the leak and refer to the
repair manual (see MR 364 (Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic II), 10A
Engine and peripherals).End of procedure.

TEST8 Incorrect injector operation
Section A: Fuel regulation balance check for each injector (individual correction):
–In the CLIP diagnostic tool, choose the Fuel circuit subfunction.
–With the engine idling and the fuel temperature > 50˚C, display the flow correction values of each injector
(individual correction), i.e.:
–PR364 Cylinder no. 1 fuel flow correction.
–PR405 Cylinder no. 2 fuel flow correction.
–PR406 Cylinder no. 3 fuel flow correction.
–PR365 Cylinder no. 4 fuel flow correction.
A flow correction value greater than or equal to 5 mg/st absolute value can indicate an injector fault or cylinder
sealing fault.
–If this has not already been carried out, check the injector connections and wiring.
–Check the connections and wiring of the engine management computer to the injectors.
–Repair if necessary.
–Check the IMA injector codes, comparing the IMA codes on the injectors (the IMA codes must be read from left
to right) and the IMA codes read in the CLIP diagnostic tool.
–If the IMA codes are correct, continue the fault finding procedure,
–If not, change the incorrect IMA codes using command SC002 Enter injector codes (see Interpretation of
commands).
To confirm the repair, consult part B of this test.
CASE No. 1: If at least one of the values is greater than or equal to + 5 mg/st
–Check the valve clearance.
–Check the condition of the engine and the compressions (using the Clip diagnostic tool or a compression
gauge).
–If the compression test reveals a cylinder fault, carry out the necessary repairs.
–If the compression is correct, check the fitting conformity of the injector (see MR 364 (Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic
II), 13B, Diesel injection, Diesel injector: Removal - Refitting)
In particular, check that each injector has one compression washer.
Check the fuel regulation again for each injector (individual correction).
–If not, replace the injector and check for the sealing washer. Modify the IMA code using command SC002 Enter
injector codes (see Interpretation of commands).
–Apply Part B of this test to confirm the fault finding.
CASE No. 2: If at least one of the values is less than or equal to - 5 mg/st
–Check the valve clearance.
–Check the level and condition of the engine oil.
–Remove the injector with the largest correction.
–If there is diesel fuel contamination, check the condition of the cylinder concerned (cylinder, piston, valves).
Use an endoscope if possible.
–Only replace the removed injector, and modify the IMA code using command SC002 Enter injector codes
(see Interpretation of commands).
–Apply Part B of this test to confirm the fault finding.
