VerifiedHi
I advise you to take your car to a Renault main dealership or specialist to have a real time diagnostic check done so a full diagnose can be given (this will have a set charge of approx 20 mins labour)
It could be a failed part on the engine system or just a software glitch that will require an ECU programme update.
Some of the most common causes are:
Blocked fuel filter
Worn injectors
Worn fuel pump
Faulty crank speed sensor
