The Mégane II Owners' Club

just bought a 2003 1.5dci last week and its a big drop from a 2.0 Mondeo petrol and obviously ive had to counter torque/acceleration but i gain alot more in mpg , Double in fact
just wondering if there is any little mods that could improve acceleration/torque a wee bit......
looked around abit , seen the resistors on ebay waste of time????? and would a better air filter work,

you guys seem to know alot about modding etc im a total noob....

thanks

P.s

my brakes are sqealing quite alot, only just bought it and garage have gave me 3month warrenty do you think they should fix the fault as i see its quite common in older meganes...

thank you

You could get the engine remaped.. Will give more Torgue and a few extra horsies. All those resistors are a load of crap stay well clear.

If your breaks are squeeking this could be an indecation that new pads are needed. There is a small flange on break pads so they squeek to alert the owner to this fact.

Get some quotes (~£300) for the remap +30 bhp is not unusual with a turbo diesel and with accompanying increase in torque. Inform your insurer.

Check the brake pad thicknesses by taking off the wheel and looking through the calipers. If there is plenty left, take it back to the garage and tell them 'put copper grease on the back of the pads and check the anti-vibration plates, i'll keep coming back until they stop squeaking'.

ta for the the replys will tell the garage today and let you know the response,
