The Mégane II Owners' Club

Afternoon All

I've had my Megane 2 1.9Dci estate for 2 months and every now and again while driving over a speed bump or if its heavily loaded in the back I hear what sounds like metal rubbing on the N/S rear spring, anyway today I decided to remove the wheel and take a look (a big job for me).....what I've noticed is the spring is curved and its actually rubbing against the chassis/body......please take a look at the piccys and let me know your thoughts.

Thanks a lot in advance!!

Looks as though the top of the spring has snapped, definately not fitted right looking at the bottom photo

Oh wow....ok, would the snap be visible? I took a look at the spring and it looked as though it was seated ok? But to be fair I wouldnt have a clue what its supposed to look like anyway lol

If I were to order new springs do they need to go in a specific way? Its doesnt say much in the haines?

They only take 15 mins each side and you will see the way they go its pretty much fool proof.
lift both sides at the same time and they fall out. Easy

Bought the springs, will be doing this tomorrow.....thanks alot for replying buddy, have made me feel more confident...cheers

Thanks for the advice.....turns out both springs had broke. All fixed now, took me an hour in total

.

There you go
Im afraid with the state of the roads in this country and the crap Chinese metal it is a regular job these days.
Next time it will only take you 1/2 an hour.
