Check the timing belt. It should have been changed at 60,000 miles. Sounds like you have lost some teeth on the synchronous belt resulting in lost timing. Damage to valves can occur. look under plastic cover on the end of the head for the belt
no not a fuel filter problem, that just causes a lack of power, u have the symptoms of a failing ignition control module (located on the outside of the distributor) and distributor pickup ( located on the inside of the distributor)
My 05 1.6 renault megane struggles to start in th morning and once it does fire up you hav to rev it to ensure it wont cut out. The car then splutters and judders a bit till its warm then it tend to run ok. but keeps on switching off at the robots when i stop please what could it be
idle control sensor
or fuel delivery problem
correct part depends on what year it was built
e 10 not the best fuel for older 121s
you may have to replace the fuel filter

You will not do any damage to the car driving with a stuffed cat.The exhaust has already left the engine and has left the building.No harm to be done.You said the engine goes fine when you stick the boot into it.Maybe not a blocked cat.Its probably engine tune but a hole in exhaust may get it and you going better:)Have a go mate!Hope this helps
im willing to bet that you had a coil pack fail on you. they are one of the most common failures on the 1.8t engine. another thing i would check is for any boost hoses that may have popped off if you were accelerating quickly.
but before you go and buy a new coil pack. unplug your maf sensor and see if it runs any better than before. if the problem goes away when you unplug you maf then the mass air flow sensor is bad. but if its the same then you have a bad coil pack.
