Koleos engine start issue

Experiencing engine start issues with my 2023 Renault Koleos gasoline. At 166110 km, it's refusing to start. Sometimes the engine shuts off unexpectedly, and when it runs, it's very rough. I suspect a defective fuse. Anyone else encountered similar engine start issues?

I had a somewhat similar experience with my Renault Kadjar. The symptoms you describe sound a lot like what I went through. Did you happen to notice if your dashboard lights were behaving erratically when the engine trouble started?

Yes, the dashboard lights did flicker a few times before all this started. What exactly was the problem with your Kadjar that caused similar symptoms?

In my case, it ended up being a faulty ignition coil. With the dashboard lights acting up as well, it's quite possible you're facing the same. I suggest heading to your workshop; they are better equipped to accurately diagnose it.

Thanks so much for your advice! It turns out the issue was indeed related to the ignition system, just as you suspected. A defective fuse was the culprit, and the repair cost me only 52€. Your insights were incredibly helpful!
