The Mégane II Owners' Club

As the weather has started to turn cold, I've been having difficulties... First thing in the morning, I will start the car and you get a noise like some sort of gear stuck and then it stalls. You start the car again and it's fine....Yes it's the 1.6 VVT and I know it's the symptoms of the dephaser.....

if you are interested in the car and the dealer wants to make a sale, tell them you'll buy it on the condition that the cam belt is done

To be absolutely honest, I wouldnt consider them any different than any other car. Every car has problems. For example, the works mercedes is notorious for wearing out tyres and the waste gate valve sticking, and yes, both have happened and it's not even a year old

mine comes on at about 50 miles, then the display goes off around 45. Wouldn't worry too much about it, I usually refill at quarter of a tank as I'm trying not to get it like this incase it's swilling the contaminants out of the tank through the engine.

Sounds like a coil, it's in limp mode. I have to agree about the grease, useless

it's a dealer only part

because you still need to illegally modify the machine,
the games are still under copyright laws

it might be cold, but it's gooooollllldddd, soon warm up

put it towards a bog made of solid gold

that's the one, kind of impresses some people when you can do that aswell

ps one games were required to be patched (illegal), ps2 games also required to be patched and used to have the video clips altered in size (illegal) so you could fit in on a dvd-r. both involved a chip (illegal) or an action replay disc. i'm sure you can find psx1 games on ebay (legal)

save your money in a bank, if it goes, your covered, if it dosent, quids in. the cost to have a dephaser done is around the £500 mark (if done correctly, i.e. new belt, etc...) now how much does a warranty cover cost? if it goes, quids in, if it dosent, you've just lost a lot of money. some people w...

whats the engine?

it's in the garage now....fingers crossed

i came across this with mine. the dealer said it couldnt be donebut the renault brochure showed a panoramic sunroof megane with them on, it even gave the part number for the bars.
