[QUOTE="oVerboost, post: 181604, member: 4227"] Just interested as to who's RS133 has cold start issues? I ask because mine did but only a little, however the fix from the Clio RS models works the same on the Twingo. The MAP sensor on the left hand side of the inlet manifold has a rubber seal that wears over time, this in turn allows the sensor to move and not seal properly. Under vacuum the sensor is pulled towards the inlet and creates a tight seal, but at idle or low revs from cold, it can sometimes not seal. You've two options to remedy this... buy a new MAP sensor and hope that it doesn't fail again or simply get a metal cable tie (long kind) and wrap it against the inlet manifold tight so it cannot move. You should find your cold start issues are gone. Hopefully this might help someone in the future when searching for help... :) [/QUOTE]
