Re: Help fast please...stuck on side of road
Not sure mate..
Aint even looked, managed to acquire a replacement engine for next to nothing from a friend who wrote his Megane off.
I know his engine has been looked after well, with low milage..no brainer in my opinion.
Prob will strip it down when its out, see the damage.

Re: Front coil spring replacement???
Never done the springs on a Megane, but you will need spring compressors I'm guessing.
You will also need a wind back tool for the calliper pistons, but I used a G clamp, worked ace.

Re: Engine Swap
Right, got most of the stuff out I need to get out. Disconnected all plugs, cables and live/earth straps. Can someone please tell me how to disconnect the gear linkages the right way and also the drive shafts? Am I going to get coverers in oil when I do the driveshafts? Also would it be a good idea ...

Re: Engine Swap
If I go for the engine swap, will I need the ECU from the new engine or will mine work?
Or will I have to get mine programmed to the new engine?

Re: Engine Swap
Great info guys.
Im going to start stripping the head off Monday night and asses the damage from there.
Like you say, maybe there isn't much damage, fingers crossed.
I will keep my progress posted up here, as I'm a complete novice I will be needing advice lol.
Cheers guys.

Help fast please...stuck on side of road
Hi
My Megane 03 1.4 cut out at an island.
When I try to start it, I can hear the starter motor and aux belt it moving round but engine not cranking at all.
Cambelt?
