Hi..

with regards to the running problems and im guessing its the 8 valve 1.6 engine.
there are some small breather pipes nesr the bulk head from the map sensor to the inlet manifold. The sensor will have a green plug.. remove pipe and check the bends for splitting..this will cause the stalling and running rough. The part is around £8.00 from renault...i can supply you one if you cant get to a dealer..i have a ebay shop and except paypal

the key head is very important and would change the batteries right away..
hope this helps in some way

cheers
