Mum's 1.4 scenic misfiring?

[fridaypassion]

On my watch as well lol I'll be getting told off

Suddenly started firing on 3 cyliders. No EML light on.

I'm guessing I need to look at the spark plugs but they seem to be these different unit as picurted:



Whats the correct terminology for these? I was going to try getting one just to rule that out first of all what do you think?

that'll just be the coil - the plug is buried below it.....tried pulling it out?

Coil packs. Cost about a tenner each. Looks like the red one has already been replaced so it'll be one of the other 3 I expect.

Common for these to fail on Renaults.

Common fault indeed.
I had to replace 2 of the original French made ones with supposedly Japanese ones but they cost allot more then a tenner each - I think it was more like 100euro each or something. (The previous owner replaced only two and then I ended up replacing the other two - probably best changing all of tehm I reckon).
Where do you get them so cheap then?

French electrics...

Legendary....

Yeah it was a coil pack. Luckily a local breaker was open so just nipped there, tried one of the two grey ones and got it first time. It looked like it was the rubber seal that had actually gone so I've kept the coil pack to stick a seal on it.

Ironically I've owned 3 Renaultsport cars over the last few years and this is the first issue I've had! (in respect of coils at least)
