Hi,
Another month another fault. At least my Megane is consistent. Its an 05, 1.4 Dynamique 5 door, 27k miles.
I tried to start it last night, the engine rattled, the whole car shook and vibrated, the rev counter pulsed up and down from 500-3000rpm and then it stopped. Tried again... the same. Third time: gave it a bit of petrol and it eventually started running and levelled off at 800rpm. The smell of petrol was unbearable and the car sounded like a 2 stroke lawnmower engine. Any ideas??? Needless to say, I didn't drive it.
Last month I took it in and the fuel injector was dissassembled, cleaned and rebuilt, the alternator circuit replaced and the timing belt adjusted -all to fix a problem were the car revved-up on its own and idled at 2500rpm. Its gone 700 miles since then albeit with some slight misfiring/ occassional loss of power.
Basically I need it fixing so I can sell it ASAP!! I pity the poor sod that buys it - by my reckoning its had well over £1500 of repairs this year (fortunately under warranty), and its spent 15% of the time off the road and in the dealers!
Can Anybody Help Me...
