"Reassuringly powered by a Renault 1.6 engine"

yes, just how reassuring is that ........

Hi,

Could anybody please tell me the part number for OEM Renault front brake pads for a 2004 1.6 16v Sporthatch?

thanks,

i wouldnt go to holdcrofts, they are incompetant fools. i had to tell them how the handsfree worked on a megane when i had problems with it so they could "have a go" at it any renault dealer can get you a set, they're all the same price (set by renault). when i got mine, i looked on ebay,...

Hiya,

I have got the "executive" one - they are pretty good quality (although a little on the expensive side) and a set of the rubber ones for winter.

Looks good - how about a step-by-step "how to" guide to the installation?

thanks,
Pete

Hiya, Does anybody happen to know the size (in mm) of the wheel bolts on a Megane with alloys? I ask because I am thinking about getting some of these: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/20x-ALLOY-WHEEL-NUT-BOLT-COVERS-IN-BLACK-17mm_W0QQitemZ250244186242QQihZ015QQcategoryZ23025QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewIt...

77 05 096 068 N/STOCK PIN @ £1.24
77 03 072 393 N/STOCK RIVET METAL @ £1.24

82 00 168 855 SILICONE GREASE @ £33.81

just out of curiosity, does anybody happen to know if it is possible (and if so, what the part number is) to retrofit the diesel model's extra soundproofing to the 1.6?

cheers

I went through loads of different ones for 3 years all noisy or smearing. Got tesco ones on now £2.97 each. Been on since November and still happy with them. Never use anything on screen and washing up liquid in the washers. I was told once never to use washing up liquid in your washer bottle as it...

well, finally got these - what a bargain, only £2.80 + VAT for a couple of screws and a little clip thing!

mind you, nothing compared to the cost of the spark plug grease which I got (based on posts on here about how it is important to protect the coils) - what a snip at £34 a tube!

cheers,
pete

well, as promised - an update on the filter! Much as expected really (and others have commented) - a nicer noise (especially when you nail it!), maybe a tiny bit smoother (although its a bit like the difference between using regular or super unleaded, I can tell the difference because I drive it all...

Hi, Dont suppose anybody knows if the screws/attachments which hold the plastic battery cover in place can be purchased from Renault and if so, what the part number(s) would be? I will approach the local dealer, but I can already see the stock "no - you have to buy the whole cover as a kit"...

well, the filter turned up in the post the other day and I fitted it yesterday afternoon. I have to say I am VERY impressed with the simplicity of the design to get into it, took about 3 minutes from start to finish (compared to my old Mk6 Fiesta which required removing/dismantaling the engine cover...
