Hey, thanks for the quick reply! That really could be the problem, I'll have it checked next week. I haven't read the fault memory yet, but maybe I should give it a try. The last service on my Avantime was at 39448 km, since then everything has been great. Hopefully there are no major repairs. Thanks again for your help!

Hey, no problem! Yes, reading out the fault memory would be a good next step. It may also be that only one sensor needs to be replaced, which would be much cheaper than a new control unit. It's always one of those things with such faults. Sometimes it's just a small thing, sometimes you have to dig a little deeper into your pocket. But don't worry, it's often less serious than you think. Keep your fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly. Let us know how it turns out. All the best!

Hello again, you're really right. The idea of reading out the fault memory sounds sensible. Of course, the best thing would be if it's just a sensor that needs replacing. I really hope it's nothing more serious. I will definitely keep you posted on how it turns out. Many, many thanks for your support and good wishes! See you then!

Hey, I had a similar problem with my 1999 Renault Scenic. I'm not a car mechanic, but I know my way around a bit. My engine control unit was defective. They replaced it in the workshop and I had to pay 1000 euros for it. Could be the same for you. Have you ever read out the fault memory or had it checked at a specialist workshop? That would probably provide more information. Hope that helps you!
