Re: Full Size Spare Wheel Problem

Full Size Spare Wheel Problem

I wonder if anyone can help with a frustrating puzzle I have with my wife's 2012 Megane Floride cabrio. We have just had the alloy wheels refurbished after driving round using the full size spare wheel for 2 or 3 weeks. I have now gone into the boot to replace the wheel and the toolkit which goes wi...

Nice feature which prevents water ingress I believe to window regulator et...

Re: Window problem poll

Thank you - there is always something new to learn! Have sussed out where to get it from and that is a really helful tip much appreciated. Pity the auto designers don't think of these practical things when creating all their clever features which become so expensive to replace.

Re: Window problem poll

Glad I read this thread as wife's car is now 7 years old and will just fit into the criteria for a subsidised fix from Renault. Have checked with dealer re availability of replacement regulators to be informed that they are on "back order" and not able to forecast when they will be back in...
