Re: Timing Belt change

timing belt kit,
accessoires belt,
tensioner.

(make sure you change the pulleys at the same time (they're plastic)

and dephaser if you want to spend £118 for the part whilst doing the belts or £500 if it goes afterwards. Inspect the waterpump, they are reliable and don't necessarilly need changing

Re: Looking at a Megane but have a few ownership questions...

Coils don't just affect renaults....have a google, you'd be suprised as to what manufacturer comes up first, and they're not that expensive to replace. The dephaser is a pig.
