Irregularities and possible throttle valve problems with the 2023 Renault Megane petrol engine

Poor fuel economy

Unsteady engine

Check engine light on

Jerking on acceleration

Loss of engine power

Engine shuts off by itself

Hey guys, my 2023 Renault Megane gasoline engine is giving me a few worries. It now has 41376 km on it and is doing strange things: The engine light is on, it sometimes just stalls, loses power, runs rough, jerks when accelerating and the fuel consumption is also higher than usual. I suspect this has something to do with the throttle valve. Has anyone had similar experiences and can tell me how it went at the mechanic? I didn't have a good experience on my last visit there. Thanks in advance!

Hey, I totally understand what you mean. I had a similar problem with my 2020 Renault Clio. I had a faulty accelerator pedal module. The engine was running rough, the car was jerking and sometimes it even stalled! It wasn't a nice experience, but luckily they were able to fix it in my garage. They replaced the accelerator pedal module and a few other things. It was a serious problem that needed to be fixed immediately to avoid damage! So, better get it checked early. All the best!

Hey, that sounds exactly like my problem! Good to know it was solved in the end. How much did the repair cost you, if you remember? And have you had any other difficulties since then or is everything running smoothly now? Thank you!

Hey, very good of you to take care of keeping your car safe. It cost me €205 to repair the accelerator pedal module. That wasn't a lot of money, but it was worth it. Since the visit to the mechanic, the fault with the throttle valve has actually been rectified and everything is running smoothly. So far, no further problems, fortunately! I hope it will be the same for you. Keep us up to date and good luck!

Wow, 205€ isn't cheap, but it's worth it if my car runs smoothly again afterwards. I'm reassured to hear that you haven't had any further problems since. I will take your advice and get the car checked as soon as possible before any major damage occurs. Thanks for your help and advice! I'll definitely keep you posted.
