Genuine RENAULT 4th Gear Speed Sensor - Clio 4 RS EDC Gearbox

Avoid Lockup: Why Replace the 4th Gear Speed Sensor on Your Clio 4 RS EDC?

As a specialist in sports vehicle maintenance, Optimiz Access knows that the EDC gearbox of the Clio 4 RS is a masterpiece of technology, but it is also extremely sensitive to the quality of the information it receives. A failing 4th gear sensor does not always manifest as a sudden breakdown, but as a progressive and insidious degradation of your driving experience.

The direct consequences of a worn or defective 4th gear sensor:

Not replacing this gear speed sensor means exposing yourself to the following inconveniences:

• Hesitant 4th Gear Downshifts and Upshifts: You will notice a loss of fluidity when shifting from 3rd to 4th, or from 4th to 5th gear. The EDC gearbox may slip slightly or produce jerks, especially in "Sport" mode or during hard acceleration, causing you to lose control of driving precision.
• Feeling of Ineffective Accelerator Pedal: If the automatic transmission control unit does not read the 4th gear speed correctly, it may interpret an error, leading to a power limitation or shifting into limp mode just when you need it most. Your sports car loses its character.
• Intermittent Error Messages: The « Check Gearbox » warning light may appear sporadically on the dashboard. These errors, often related to internal speed sensors (like the 4th gear one), are a critical warning sign not to be ignored for the health of your EDC mechatronics.
• Risk of Internal Component Wear: Incorrect speed information can unnecessarily stress the shift forks and synchronizers. Eventually, you risk a complete EDC gearbox failure, the repair or replacement cost of which is disproportionate to the price of this genuine sensor.
