2000 Renault Megane RXE review from France
"A disaster"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
After 30000 km, the accessory belts did break and enter the distribution...the engine then had two valves broken...
3000 (3 weeks) later, same problem, but this time the belt debris broke the power steering pump...
General comments?
Do not buy any Renault Megane... their engine is a disaster...
