The Mégane II Owners' Club

I'll start by saying im a complete novice so apologies for the dumb question!!! I have a 2003 1.6 menage dynamique which im looking to sell. I havent used it for a while and believe the battery is dead. Have borrowed a battery charger but am a bit confused. I have removed the plastic cover but then ...

i called the company doing that listing on ebay, really helpful is there a set torque setting that needs to be used (im probably showing my level of car knowledge by saying that!) father-in-law has more tools than halfords, so should be good, but ill ask him. guy from ebay also said that the hub nut...

thanks for the info pal i've changed discs and pads before (with the help of my father-in-law because im completely clueless about cars!) is it simply a case of 1. remove wheel 2. prise open caliper (hope thats the right word) 3. remove old disc, put new one on 4, replace pads in caliper and then ou...

Hi I have a 2003 Megane 1.6VVT. My MOT is due in a few weeks and im pretty sure my rear brake pads are shot probably to the point where ill now need new discs too (leson learnt) Guy at the garage i go to said they need the rear bearing changed at that point as well. Done a bit of research and it see...

well i stopped into my local renault specialist this morning and he seems to be of the opinion that the motor and its computer unit need changing. he said its a pretty common fault. having read elsewhere that spraying the loom/wiring with WD40 can help, he said its worth a shot as a cheap solution t...

Hi I have a 2003 1.6 megane privilege. Last week the passenger window half came down as i was driving all on its own. Tried both the drivers and passenger window control but nothing. A friend recommended jiggling the window up and down and pressing the control up at the same time as it had more than...

Hi Recently my 03 1.6 megane has been making a pretty loud noise and start. It does reduce in noise as i drive along for a bit, but is certainly louder than usual. Gaving read on here about the phaser pulley, i fully anticipated for this to be the issue. Went to a local renault specialis (Two Techs ...

is it in the same place though?

thanks for the reply. I read a few other places that chemicals on the windscreen can cause it to mess up as well. Where my car hadnt moved for 2 days the snow had frozen pretty hard to the windscrween so had to use a fair bit of de-icer to lossen it so i could scrape it off. Maybe this has messed it...

Hi all i have an 03 megane privilige 1.6 auto. This morning whilst driving to work my service light came up with the lcd saying "Auto Wipers Failure". I cleared as much of the ice and snow from the car as i could before setting off, and for about 10-15 minutes they were working fine. Now i...

thanks mark.

i figured it would all be pretty standard. is the oil filter easy to get to? also, they guy who listing the item on ebay recommended a pollen filter for an extra £16, he said you can access it by the pedals from inside the car, is that correct?

thanks for the reply.

its the 1.6 auto engine. will look around to see if i can find a haynes manual

My 2003 megane is due a service, and i usually like to service my own cars rather than pay high dealer prices. im a complete car novice so usually my father in law does them and i stand and watch pretending i have a clue what hes talking about. I have seen this on ebay - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBa...

just thought id update you all on this... renault do not sell them individually, id have to buy and entire brand new headlight to get the clip. im having no luck with breakers, either they dont have them or they have them but are only prepared to sell them as a complete headlight :( does anyone happ...

just ordered the part from renault, £16.30. Tried a few breakers who wanted £15 so i thought id go straight for the renault part.

thanks for all the help guys
