Renault is one of the oldest car manufacturers and has a strong connection to motorsport, competing in over 300 F1 races. In 1977, the Renault RS01 became the first Formula One car to use a turbocharger at the British Grand Prix and earned the nickname ‘yellow teapot' due to overheating issues. However, the technology took off a few years later, and turbochargers became commonplace. One of Renault's most popular and iconic models is the Clio, which earned the title of ‘Best Small Car' at the CarBuyer Best Car Awards 2022.

Few things are as frustrating for a driver as realising your car doesn't have as much power as it should. Small changes in performance matter and are most noticeable during acceleration. Your car may suddenly lose and then regain power or feel sluggish all the time; either way, it's clear there's something wrong.A loss of power can often be traced back to a problem in the fuel system, such as a clogged fuel filter, faulty injectors or a malfunctioning MAF sensor. Running a cleaning additive through the system every so often can help prevent issues like these from developing. However, the fuel system isn't always to blame. As discussed in this guide, an ECU error or a clogged catalytic converter can also make your car lose power - that's why you should take note of any other symptoms that could help pinpoint the cause. These may include unusual exhaust smoke (blue, white or black) and rough idling.
