1.6 16V automatic uphill struggle.

Postby Hairychested » Sat Sep 28, 2013 6:43 pm

I drive the automatic Megane and have so far had few issues only - brakes changed, track rods with t.r. ends, ball joints, gearbox oil, ripped the front wheel off so new knuckle/bearing/hub/wheel, screen wash pump changed, new wheel bolts, box mount etc etc. The newest thing is - as I was queueing today, the road goes uphill, the car wouldn't stay stationary in gear, it was sliding back (the driver behind me wasn't overly impressed I thought), it needed my foot on the brake. What do I need to check/change? I'll be changing the t-belt and pump set soon but that's unlikely to make a single piece of difference.
Can anybody enlighten me, please?
