kazzy0300 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Hi, i have a renault megane scenic 01 plate that wont start, it was running fine the last time we drove it, went into asda to do some food shopping, came back out and it wouldn't start whatsoever, it was turning over but wouldn't start. I have changed the crank shaft sensor, spark plugs and the fuel pump to no avail...i'm really hoping someone on here has some sort of idea what the problem could be. If anyone does know, please please please could you shed some light on this thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnkleBob Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 is there petrol in it? that's not meant to sound clever, might be a duff gauge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazzy0300 Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 yeah, we took the pipe off that feeds petrol to the engine and when we try to start the engine, petrol pumps through normally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qazitory Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Could it be the immobiliser? As my in-laws had the same problem once with their scenic as their key had lost the coding. Try the spare key if you have one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowperil Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 sounds like your immobiliser,common on the megane,the keyfob part has a transponder in it that sometimes goes funny,your central locking will work but your immobiliser stays on.

kazzy0300 Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 Have tried both keys so not the key :/ Does the immobiliser stop the coil packs from working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone does know, please please please could you shed some light on this thanks Sounds daft but it could be your pollen filter. Take it out and try starting it, mine did a similar thing a while ago, ran with one for a few days till i got another. Or the CAM sensor, thats a common startup fault on those. Give G-Tech on here a pm, hes a good lad and wont rip you off like lots of other places. Gareth is his name and i think you get a discount if you contact him on here.

yellowperil Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 dont discount the immobiliser just yet,if the keys are out of sync youll have to re sync them,look online to find how. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qazitory Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I would try and resync the key and see if that works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
