The Mégane II Owners' Club

Theres a topic on here about changing it have a search, I actually found it easy enough and i'm not a mechanic just got myself some tools and started getting stuck in. Worst thing about the axial rod is its very awkward to get anything onto it, there is a special tool you can get but I think it's ex...

This topic has already been raised by the op this one needs removed...

Do you mean when you bring the clutch pedal up it accelrates away because this will happen in a diesel if you used to petrols it might feel abit weird ?

Well just swapped the control module on the motor and away she went working 100% again

I knew it wasn't the mechanism or motor as it was going up when I deadlocked the car so was going up and down then just packed in!

Sure it was in gear? Does sound a weird one alrite!

Could be the ABS sensors or the wiring might have got damaged best to check over the rear brakes.

Could be either or both, you'll need to jack the car up and then grab the wheel and check for play, if you can you should be able to see if the track rod end is at fault as it will move. You'll need to put your hand on the axial rod which goes into the steering rack and feel for a click as described...

Don't drive the car if it has low oil, dip it and confirm how much oil is in there and top up if needed. The droning noise could possibly be a wheel bearing on the way out? Does it hum louder the faster you go?

I agree with tomalamix my girlfriends car had the same issue but failed MOT was the axial rod, handy enough to replace aswel with a good set of vice grips

It will go down but not up and I've tried the double lock and fuse in and out method not working :( Also noticed the driver side window in now only moving in a few inches at a time and then stops. Would this be due...

Replaced the axial rod and TRE yesterday was handy enough thought it was gonna be a nightmare but managed to get the vice grips on, a few taps and off it came :grin Luckily enough it looks like Renault didn't have any thread lock on it! It didn't feel that bad but when moving side to side there was ...

Did a search and found the problem I'm having could be the inner track rod/axial rod so gonna go and have a look now will let you know how I get on.

I replaced the suspension arm this morning, what ...
