Hi all
Might sound like a silly question but I just can't seem to find out!
All the info seems to be regarding diesel versions.
Does my 2005 megane 1.4 16v petrol have an EGR valve?

EGR are only on diesels

Aye - the 1.4 is probably the least problematic engine... no EGR and no dephaser!

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

Thanks very much guys.
My car is doing funny things & from what I've read is exactly the same symptoms as when the egr valve needs cleaning- Very hesitant engine, like, restrictive on low throttle, it's like you can't cruise- either foot down or let off completely to cure it or it starts to kangaroo! Also, sometimes when you start it, it idles well below what it should do- approx 450 rpm when it should be about 750/800.
I've had code read at garage & it indicated middle two coils & these have been replaced with Renault ones (outer two are the updated Renault ones) It seemed OK for a couple of days but it just went back to the problems after that.
Any ideas anyone??
Regards

My mum had the kangaroo issue on a Renault van. Went into Renault and they charged over £500 without being able to resolve the issue. Took into a local garage and after a test drive they throught it was the fuel filter (or filter hosuing), so temperarily routed the fuel around this and through a temp fuel filter to see if this was the problem, and it was! I think this cost just over £100 to sort out in the end, not sure if it was the housing or the filter itself.
