Re: Check door locks problem and fix

Thanks for the reply. Never knew the car locks activated over 5 mph. Is that a child safety feature? The 'check door locks' and spanner symbols have gone, so presume they were related to doors self locking. Car not due service yet, normally we get ' service due' sign on run up to it. Someone said th...

Re: Air con compressor

Thank you both for your prompt replies. Shorty before getting the air con going last summer the car was in our local Renault indie garage trying to get the poxy windows fixed permanently.

Air con compressor

2006 Mégane 1.5dci. After finally reinstating working air con last summer, noticed Friday no cold air from vents. Worked out compressor not engaging/working.

Hi, had airccon system degassed 4 years ago when condenser needing changing. Am now finally getting around to changing it and regassing system.

Back in the game

Hi, bit of a reintroduction. After purchasing our Mégane 1.5 DCI 2006 in 2014 full of enthusiasm things rapidly went down hill.

hissing noise

Not sure if this is a fault or just another Megane quirk but recently we have noticed a constant sound of hissing/ leaking air when driving from the passenger side. When the foot brake is pressed the noise disappears and reappears when the pedal is released. I presume this is the brake servo but is ...
