Why does my Renault Modus make vibrations when accelerating?

So let’s start our guideline with the roots of this type of problem on your car. You should already know that an engine, specifically if it is old or if it has been driven quite a lot, can naturally vibrate without being a problem behind it. Large diesel engines, specifically those with a lot of torque, can bring about this sort of feeling, both at idle and when accelerating.

I feel vibrations on my Renault Modus only when accelerating

Let’s take the most interesting circumstance for us in this guideline. The fact that you feel trembling on your Renault Modus during your acceleration periods, in this circumstance you will have to check the condition of different components because many of elements can be at the origin of these vibrations and whether or not you are unfortunate a combination of several of them may also be possible, here is the list of components that can be involved.

  • Turbo: If the turbo of your Renault Modus is faulty, it may bring about vibrations that you will come to feel when you accelerate at the moment it is turned on.
  • The turbo pressure sensor: This sensor will manage the pressure exerted in the turbo of your car, if it fails it may disturb the performance of your turbo and bring about vibrations that you may come to feel within the acceleration of your Renault Modus.

    • .

  • If the turbo is punctured or damaged, the result will be similar, the power supply of your turbo will be disturbed and its performance too. Be sure to visually examine their condition.

I’m having vibrations on my Renault Modus at acceleration and deceleration

We will now focus on the case where you come to feel vibrations on your Renault Modus when you are accelerating but also when you are idling. If you only come to feel vibrations when you are idling on your Renault Modus, please read our guideline dedicated to this problem to resolve your problem. If, on the other hand, you identify that your Renault Modus vibrates when accelerating but also when it is stopped, here is the list of things to examine:

  • EGR valve: In truth this valve which manages the return of exhaust gases for pollution standards can become dirty and disturb the evacuation of exhaust gases which can bring about Renault Modus vibrates when accelerating but also when stopped.
  • Injectors: Your injectors that regulating the fuel/air mixture flow may be dirty or damaged, which will release the wrong amount of mixture and thus prevent your engine block from working properly, it is even possible that one or more of your cylinders are not running effectively.
  • Fuel Filter: Like the injectors, if the filter is blocked it will not let the fuel pass effectively and therefore disturb the operation of your Renault Modus, up to the point of generating vibrations during acceleration.

Here are the most important triggers of a Renault Modus that vibrates at acceleration

To conclude, in this last section, we will tell you the possibilities available to you to handle these tremors on your car when you accelerate. Here is the best attitude to adopt according to the component that is involved:

  • Turbo: If your turbo starts all these vibrations when you accelerate your Renault Modus, it will be good for you to control all the components associated with it because changing a complete turbo is a big budget and in most cases the problem does not come directly from the turbo. So make sure to check out your turbo pressure sensor, your flowmeter, the EGR valve and the hoses of your turbo. Otherwise take your Renault Modus to your garage.
  • EGR valve: The EGR valve has the advantage that it is quite often easy to access and easy to disassemble/clean. You can always take a look at it and clean it, for this see our guideline on cleaning the EGR valve of an Renault Modus.
  • Injectors: Injectors are very delicate components and a few harmful particles may be enough to disturb their operation. Use a fuel additive to simply clean the injectors, if this is not enough you will have to go to a expert.
  • Fuel Filter: If it is the fuel filter, only replace it. A fuel filter doesn’t clean itself, so if it is clogged you will basically have to replace it with a new one.

Now you have all the information you need to find the source of the vibrations at acceleration on your Renault Modus. If you don’t feel able to accomplish certain procedures don’t hesitate to go to your motor mechanic.
