Air bubble in the fuel line

My Megane CC 1.9 diesel developed a fault with air entering into the system. Fuel filter was changed but the fault persisted. When left parked for a few hours, the fuel retires from the the injectors and it is possible to see a huge bubble where the fuel should be. Any time I stopped the car and bef...

Re: Megane CC problems

Re: Megane CC problems

Eventually the problem has been sorted. Allegedly the fuel indicator wasn't very precise and I have run out of fuel without noticing. Being a diesel, it wasn't just a question of filling the tank. Apparently some additional work had to be done.. Anyway, final bill was £70.00 and the Megane CC is bac...

Re: Megane CC problems

Apparently it's the crank shaft sensor. Resetting the immobiliser was so simple that it took a couple of minute with the dedicated device. Not other faults were found but apparently the crack shaft failure doesn't show on the software. The technician said the sensor failure is a rather common proble...

Re: Megane CC problems

Done that too, but not joy. The card is actually recognised (there is no "card not recognised" error message and the starter run normally. The engine doesn't fire up and the card key fail to lock and unlock the car. Many thanks for any suggestion...

Re: Megane CC problems

Changed battery, eventually. The key is not working or, let say the immobiliser is not working anymore. Any idea what should I do?

Re: Megane CC problems

This is another worry. The car was driving perfectly until the evening before...No new stereo or other devises installed recently.

Re: Megane CC problems

The battery was so dead that wasn't even charging. Got to buy a new one on Saturday and I hope that should solve the issue. Still I have a bad feeling it could be also something else...

Megane CC problems

Tried to start my Megane CC 1.9 Dynamique (diesel) this morning and the starter motor failed to start the engine. Tried 5 or 6 times without success. While I was locking the car, I realised that the card key wasn't working anymore. Tried again this afternoon, and now the card key is working but the ...

Re: setting alarm with roof down

I have the same question. I have been told that the way to activate the alarm is double-click the lock button on the key card. I have tried several times, with windows down or windows up but with no joy :(

Re: its 5° outside. .. But the sun is shining .....

Saturday was my first really enjoyable topless drive. M25 to Leatherhead (chock-a-block), up to Box Hill, a leisure drive through Dorking, back to Epson and driving to Kingston. Smiling all the way and had quite a tan on my face 8-)
