2000 Renault Megane RXE review from Turkey
"This car redefines the concept of Renault"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It started to run slightly hotter (not overheating though) than usual, then the dealer re-programmed the ECU to cure a malfunction on the fan operation range. This happened at 5000 kms service, now the car runs perfectly even on the hottest day.
General comments?
- Service prices are average.
- A/C is superb.
- Ride is excellent.
- Torquey engine, being a 1.6 is very powerful.
- Fuel consumption is around 37 mpg. Excellent.
- Better construction quality than the others.
