Re: Clean Megane :D

put weights on the wheel to balance it, so basically the wheels balanced and you don't get a steering wheel wobble at high speeds, also good for the wheel bearing so it doesnt wear out. :cool:

Re: Range when fuel light comes on

ive noticed something similar with my 1.6 it'll go right down to like 45 miles then the light comes on , then the display just ---, im thinking it does this to urge you to fill up and not leave it too long so you run out of fuel.

Re: Hiss and Rattle

is the hiss loud? coz if its not loud id say its jsut teh air intake sucking in air, which is what its supposed to do, when u press the accelerator the hiss could possibly be just the air intake, as for the rattle does it only do it when ur jsut movin forward or all othe time?
