1998 Renault Megane RN review from Croatia
"Good car for driving up to 100km/h"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well, as soon my father bought it the passenger window handle broke, it was built in error.
Later during the winter, driver doors could not be unlocked because the key would just turn around 360 deg res, funny it fixed itself in spring. Next winter it broke for good.
Apr-ox. after 45000 km one of wheel bearing got broken.
On 130000 km had to change all 4 wheel bearings.
Almost every year we had to change the last exhaust.
General comments?
This car is very comfortable, but in seriously lack of power. Motor 1,4 8 V is a good motor for smaller car like Clio, but it is too slow for Megan.
I discovered this year that when it rains it leaks inside thru antenna.
