A tale about Megane brakes

A friend rang me the other day. She has a 2005 Megane 1.4 and the brakes were worn. She brought it to a one man garage near her house and the mechanic diagnosed front discs and pads and rear pads. Total cost €350.00 about £300.00 because the brake discs are connected to the flywheel and it's a big job! I advised her to wait and rang the motor...

When I had my Megane I changed the lot easily, I'd have done Sarah's for €50.00. I'd have left the flywheel in situ and she'd have had almost €200.00 to spend on lipstick or whatever young ladies spend their money on

You need to get that onto a proper diagnostic unit, the steering signal for the electric motor comes off a curcuit board with two pots on it something is spooking the signal to the steering motor dont drive it to far its dangerous !

Did i read it right it appears you said the car is only a year old ?

Correct Oil for 2.0dci (M9R) must meet RN0720 standard?

Is it correct that engine oil for my 2008 2.0dci needs to meet the Renault norm RN0720?

When doing a search on here i get 2 different alternatives

2006-2008 -

2008-2014 -

And since our car is a 2008 i get confused. It seems like one of the years should be either 2007 or 2009.

Do anyone know why there is 2 different alternatives. AFAK our...

They dont do them on demestic cars these days they used to use them in the 50s /60s /70s , torque converters have to be ballanced if you drill a hole in one you will ve metalic particals in there ,even if you drill and put an insert in for a plug you will have to have it ballanced ,converters are truly a sealed for life...

Renault diagnostics, as in Lexia for Renault

by elma » 28 Jun 2016, 16:54

First post

Does anyone know what the Renault equivalent of Lexia is?

I have a few issues on the Scenic that need tracking down and I am struggling to find anything except for the Renault/Volvo Hgv diagnostics machine with googles help.

Last post

I didn't get round to buying one but my research led me to believe that the canclip was necessary for my scenic.
Main reason was to release the e handbrake to change the rear pads. I don't think the delphi can do that.

Renault Megane MK1 Engine Cooling Fan Help

by meganeman » 09 Apr 2017, 20:21

First post

Good evening folks, I recently purchase a Renault Megane MK1 2001 the only known fault is the engine fan not kicking in when it should do. Does anyone have any suggestions on what the problem could be? Could it be a faulty fuse or engine temperature sensor? Any help would be appreciated, Thanks. :-D

Last post

If a fuse has blown in a high amp circuit then there normally is a reason.
When you say not kicking in when is should ....does it come on at all or do you think it is taking to long ?

After being evicted from a Welsh barn that had been it's home for 20-odd years, I was tipped off about a rare little Frenchy. This one was up for £80 and I arranged with a fellow enthusiast we should collect it and do something amazing. That was at the start of 2014, since then we made some progress but Life and Things got in the way.

Saw another one today! Custard yellow :-) It was too far away to get a good view but definitely quite nice. It would appear the R4 is alive and kicking in Majorca. :-)

Scenic 1 fuel pump relay?

by mpdevice » 11 Feb 2017, 14:38

First post

Hi!
Just a bout to scrap my old scenic which has a considerable amount of petrol left that I wanted to pump out.
Anybody has a wing diagram of the fuse box or wherever I can tap in to hotwiring the fuel pump?
There are no legends on the fuse box in the engine compartment.
Vehicle is a 99/2000 petrol 1.6 16V.

Thaaank you!

Mike

Last post

I think you could lift the rear seats & there should be an access panel to the top of the tank, should be able to hotwire the pump from under there but as said it may be quicker to pop a hole in the tank. (I know why you'd like to use the pump though, easier to stop flow when one can is full!)

Hi all can anyone please tell me if there is a fuse for the windscreen washer as the handbook shows nothing, if not has anyone changed the motor and is it much of a job, both the windscreen and rear wipers work but neither washer, many thanks for any help.

Last post

If you do end up pulling the pumps out, you may find them full of congealed screenwash if you're lucky & a good rinse out of the washer bottle and clean of the pumps may sort them.

Failing that, I can't imagine them being expensive from a scrapyard and shouldn't be too hard to access. Most of the time you can reach a washer pump from behind the...

Do you have an Aisin Warner box ? ie a proper auto box with epicyclic gears? If you do then Mobil do a fluid for that, or get the Renault part fluid. It may be the same fluid as used in 2012 Lagunas.

The car tells me the keycard battery's low, I know this sounds lame but I can't shift the battery cover. I've looked in the manual, but it's little help. So before I attack it with a screwdriver an risk wrecking something, is there something I kneed to know.

Many thanks,
