Re: Comms problems.

Hi,
l believe he means the stalks unit round the steering wheel, check all connectors and any damage to wiring.
The faults could be all isolated incidents to check out one by one but check all multi-connectors first.
Good luck and let us know if you find solution.
Bob.

Re: Cause of Misfire?

Hi again, worse when warm points me in the direction of a dry joint on a connector, least you know it's on 3 somewhere. l am not conversant with what you've got, but check the resistance between the actual connectors and the wire they are soldered to. lntermittent faults are hard to find but maybe w...

Re: Noisy starter

Hi,
l would guess that the starter has gone dry and is struggling to return off the flywheel.
lt's not a 5 minute job but it might only need greasing where the cog slides along.
Good luck
Bob.

Re: Cause of Misfire?

Hi again, a thought went through my head and l have to run it by you. When you check injector 3, are you sure you have them numbered correctly. l coded injectors on a clio not long ago and found that renault number them 1234 from the flywheel end. l don't know about petrols but it was just a thought...

Re: Cause of Misfire?

Hi, l don't have an answer for you and l take it that the engine runs ok. lt would only make sense if it was the head gasket. l would give 3 a proper misfire, disconnect the injector and spark plug and run for a few seconds. Reconnect and see what comes up. Then disconnect 2, see if fault on both oc...

Re: 1.9 dci 130bhp injector coding?

Hi, l know that on a dci Clio it's 1 2 3 4 from flywheel end for coding. l reckon the Megane would be the same but you need to make sure. As for the low rail pressure, l would check that air isn't entering the system and giving low readings. (quick release connectors failing), lf it runs ok at lower...

Re: Location of Indicator Relay Megane II '05

Hi there, there isn't a flasher unit, it is operated from inside the interior multiplex module, behind glovebox. You could check all connections to it and check for damp or water ingress. lf it is the module, they can be repaired by a specialist. l had one done on a Clio. lf you need their number, i...

Re: Renault Recall Refusal : anyone else had issues?

Hi again, while l feel sure that fitting the temic wiring is your cheaper option anyway, if you feel strongly that you are in the right, you could try writing to the Ministry of Transport to see if it should be from date of manufacture or date of first registration. They must have some ruling on thi...

Re: "Check Injection" and Service light on when I hit 3200rpm.

Hi again, you could have just one glowplug out, or even a bad connection, the computer can only detect differences in voltage/current etc or dead circuits. Each code needs investigating, even though it starts ok This could be the cause of the check injector code, when an injector goes wrong the glow...

Re: Renault Recall Refusal : anyone else had issues?

Hi, l don't think you will get anywhere with this. Cars can be hanging around for a long time before they are registered. Your car is 11 years old and Renault know when it was made. As for your window, by this age the connections to the motor will be faulty. (inside the door) lf cleaning them doesn'...

Re: Mobile phones

Hi,
l wouldn't take too much notice of a Haynes manual, they are a guide on certain things but generally quite vague l find.
Try youtube 'how to connect hands free', you should find something l would have thought.

Re: I think I've bought a bad megane dci..

Hi Alex801, this dealer has accepted his liability it seems and taken the car back. Unless he can supply you with a really good car and you are 'over the moon with it' get your money back and go elsewhere. The finance don't want a bad car either. l urge you not to settle for one that ' will do' in t...
