Re: Megane II poor headlamps

I replaced the n/side headlamp as the electric adjuster wasnt working, I still have the old unti so might have a look at this as the o/side is looking poor in comparison and I know that has been full of water when a 'mechanic' didnt put the bulb cover on correctly at mot and I later had to drain the...

Re: Should this have passed MOT a month ago??

Mot is only valid for the date and time the vehiclle was inspected, as its an 11 plate and the discs look new on the breaking surface area, would say they are a cheapo replacement and not renault main dealer parts. Check on ebay and you will see the prices start as low as £30 a pair, last time I bou...

Re: Help me cos I'm a woman garages charge me more !

Go to ebay and type in renbreakers I used them for a drive shaft and hub for my dci megane, they were very good and reasonable prices. If you go to one of their listings there should be contact details, will have a look and seeif i have their number. They will arrange delivery to your address

Re: headlamp motor, what position when changing headlamp

Swapped the headlamp today, no issues and all ok, thanks Bob. One thing I did notice is the thickness of the wiring, the wiring currently used is the thickness they used to use in the seventies for interior lights! I know there are relays now controlling the lights but always thought they were there...

Re: Front seats from 3D/CC to 5D

mine is a 3 door so not aware of difference on airbags, certainly seems to be more airbags than on cloth seats, or at least badges for them.
