Re: Engine Rattle on DCi 1.5 (Megane Dynamique)

morale here is change aux belt at the same time as the timing belt ! you have already taken the old one off anyway so no more labour costs.

Re: MPG Reading Inaccurate?

I always work out my fuel consumption manually each fill up and the on board mpg reading is always wrong,it seems to say 49mpg nearly every time when the actual figure is a lot lower at 42-43-45 mpg I have never got more than 48mpg and that is on a normal mixed road/motorway type journeys.

Re: Clutch Problem

I have a similar problem with my 56 plate 15dci 86,on occasions it jams in gear when pulling away from traffic lights etc , also when idleing I get a bad vibration which goes when the clutch pedal is depressed three of my work colleagues have the same cars and have identical problems.

Re: Boot opening when engine start is pressed

Hi
a work colleague had the same problem with the boot opening each time he engaged reverse gear,went back to dealer about six times before it was finally fixed think it was a faulty relay or switch but it took a lot of sorting out luckily it was still under warranty.
