Good evening,

This is for a diesel, what about the 1.6 hi-flex (bioethanol)?

Hello, is it the same principle for a Dacia Sandero Stepway? There is no manual pump to bring the diesel?

between photos step 5 and step 7 you reverse the hoses marked green and white! is this normal?

Thierry DEMOTA - Reply

This is a big mistake. The hoses absolutely must be reconnected as they were originally, this is essential. It is better to take care to mark everything before disassembling. If you reverse the fuel inlet and outlet pipes, you risk having problems.
