My 96 Megane recently failed to start in similar circumstances, although it wouldn't even crank the engine. I had all my lights on inside etc, and when I turned the key to start it the whole thing wen ...

I just put disk one in and then it asked for the CD key, that didn't install anything to the PC, put CD 2 in and it started installing stuff, then finished and asked for another disk. Put no. 3 in and ...

Cheers mate,
I had a feeling it'd do grand.

Hi all,
I'm gonna drop the oil out of the box on this megane, it's done 80k on the original stuff and I reckon that's enough!

Now, the handbook calls for Tranself TRJ 75w80 with and API GL5 spec. ...

It's very good isn't it! I have the american Bentley CD for my Passat and it was good but the Renault setup seems much better (and of course covers ALL their vehicles!), and a hell of a lot cheaper th ...

what are you trying to do to the radio murph?
Oh Chris! The car came with a dead radio and nothing on the display. The guy told me his kids had put money inside it. I thought a quick swap with an eBa ...

Had the battery connector off to check some radio wiring on the radio (a whole other world of hurt-anybody know anything about the mehgane ph1 radio wiring, diagrams?) and when I reinstalled the batte ...

Whats the best way to lock the engine in place on this engine? Is there a renault tool thats slots through the top of the gearbox bell housing to stop the flywheel moving?

Cheers Chet, seems my problem is a lot more than just a blown bulb. The LCD for the rado is dead and one I got from the sprapyard is either knackered too or I have a radio/wiring problem. Anyone know ...

Hey all,
The radio hasn't worked on this megane since I bought it. I had a look at the problem today and it seems the dash lcd is dead. I found the bulbs had blown. Are these a generic part or main d ...

Ah for the sake of a tenner I'd rather flush it all out and be happy it's moisture free! Anyway, did it today with the Eezi Bleed and it went smoothly, the fluid in/near the rear wheel cylinders was v ...

Cheers danlp, just checking there's nothing odd about 'em!

Gonna tackle the brakes on this car tomorrow. It's got fairly new pads and shoes but the fluid may or may not have been changed (previous owner doesn't know) and I'm not chancing it.

Now, all my p ...

Was in GSF today getting plugs and a filter for this motor and I saw the genuine ELF Renault Type D coolant-It's â‚¬19.36 inc. VAT. Bit steep for me Shocked

EDIT: The header tank in this megane is ...

Cheers Chris. Much appreciated Exclamation

Thanks lads, that's great to know I don't need to buy more tools to look after a car I don't even own! Laughing

Thanks for that, very helpful. The system seems to be calling for a tension tool (which looks suspiciously similar to the one I have for my Passat!) but I reckon a circlip pliers will do just fine in ...

I used to stick it into my old MkII Golfs and it gave a noticeable improvement, anybody got any experiences of it with Renaults?

Hi all, me again! Wink

Quick question, what tools, if any, are required for locking the camshaft/crankshaft on the above motor when doing the timing belt? Last belt I did was on my TDI Passat and ...

What's the engine and gearbox codes for a 1.4 Energy engined 8V 1996 megane? What other Renaults did these things appear in?

Cheers lads. Trying to build up a picture of what's compatible with what ...

Yeah I can get cheap coolant too (my old man used to own a factors but he's retired now, still has contacts though Wink
