When does the non-start occur? Any constants - from cold? From hot?

Any strong smell of fuel?

[madmackie]

no smell of fuel
The car normally starts ok first thing in the morning but i think it will struggle tomorrow as its 2am and ive tried it and it still wont go.But normally it will then you could go all day no problem could go to the shops 1/4 mile away when you come out it just turns over but wont fire. Someone has suggested the camshaft sensor but it may be a guess any more help please thanks in advance pete

Get faults read, may lead you straight to the problem

Had the same problem with the daughters Clio. looked on the renault forums, and it was a common problem. Changed the flywheel TDC sensor, it never happened again, didnt flag up an engine management light either. as mentioned above maybe get the fault codes read, it could be stored in the fault log.
I have ordered a scanner off the internet, its probably less money than getting even a back st garage to read your faults once. well worth getting one.
Good Luck
