| Symptom | Likely Cause | Test | |----------|--------------|------| | Rattling cold start | Timing chain | Stethoscope on valve cover | | No start, crank no fire | Fuel pressure | Check rail pressure (min 300 bar cranking) | | Limp mode, DPF full | EGR stuck or short trips | Forced DPF regen via scan tool | | AdBlue warning remains after refill | Quality sensor or NOx sensor | Use Renault CLIP or Delphi diag for live NOx values |
