Before you go down that route check the ECU and wiring for water ingress. Just because the injector doesn't work doesn't mean it is faulty. The ECU is prone to water based failure because the wheel arch liners are not very well sealed.

Having said that, if you get it cured for £130, not bad at all.

Best advice for Megane owners: sell it before it bankrupts you!
