It can be cleaned, but weather or not it will make any difference depends entirely on the problem your having.

When cold it cuts out while idling, once warmed up its not too bad but does chug a bit.
Have replaced plugs (with genuine Renault) and all 4 coilpacks

I think these 1.4 engines are a bit fussy on the quality of oil they use. I used fuchs titan stuff from gsf when I changed the oil myself and had no cold start problems. Mechanic put oil from a big barrel (no name) in the last service and it has had issues when cold.
