New owner of a megane 3,saved me some time. Cheers.
Cheers, and glad to hear this
Great video, showing just how easy that job really is and the bonus of how to reset the service light was really helpful. Another thing that is nice to see is that your wife doesn't spend her life sat in the back seat of a Russet Brown Clubman 🤣
Thanks Graeme, there is this and a few other jobs that have been neglected while doing the classics so i'll get them all done and dusted prior to getting back to the classics. well yes, it's not often we use the mini, but when we do... we use it to the full potential.
Thanks very much. Your video is a great help as I've just bought the same model.
Fantastic to hear, thanks for the feedback 😀
I'm gona give this a go 😁 just the help I needed thank you
Fantastic, let me know how you get on
Video was exactly what I needed to do my oil and air filter. Oil filter was on too tight but an oil filter strap helped. Thank you for sharing
@@marylfahy5865 excellent news 👏 well done
@@WilliamMurfitt thank you for the video it really helped
That is a fine vid. Just a bit more light on the oil filter change and location would have been perfect. Gonna follow those directions now.
Thanks
Be due a cambelt if not already done. 60k or every 5 year intervals. Hope your going to do the fuel and pollen filters. Also glad you didnt fit a crosslands filter as i had one fail and destroy an engine. Also heard bad stories about them filters. Good informative videos especially on how to reset the service light 👍👍
cheers Mark. i didn't but once payday hits i'll be ordering up a fuel filter for the megane, i couldn't justify the cost for everything in one go. i have another video going live shortly soley on the light reset. to save people skipping through to get that bit. Oh the joy of doing a cambelt on this.... i will be due in the case of 60k
In the Renault Megane MK3 with a 1.5dCi, 1.6dCi or 2.0dCi diesel engine, only oil with Renault Standard RN0720 can be added, due to the DPF filter.
Thanks. From my understanding this model doesn't have a dpf
Great video
Thanks, im glad you found it helpful
If you are damm sure you have the right oil filter and struggle to loosing it without the proper tool then there’s the old hammer a flat head screwdriver straight though to turn it with👍✌️
Only issue with this… it can get quite messy
@@WilliamMurfittyes 100% but a good last resort if nothing else is going well 😂
How are you doing Thank you for your video Just looking for to buy one if there are worth it It seems like the engine 1.5dci 110km sounds ok But if there are any downside of it or any bad points If you can send some comments Thank you
Great cars, being renault they are renowned for electrical issues, and these have common faults of leaky turbo pipes but i would 100% recommend, we only changed due to needing more space
Thank you. There was a foam pad under your new foam filter and NOT on the old one?
I think it was just a different style of filter element, no harm done the previous one may have been more expensive maybe?
Was it designed for that engine with the RN number.
It was matched to the vehicle. And engine size
Hi, thanks for the informative video. i will be doing the service on my megane mk3 following this video. I also have 1 more question.... My fuel line going to the diesel pump has A LOT of air in it once the car is running. Any thoughts as to why this may happen please? would be great to have the issue solved as the car is feeling suuuuuuper sluggish :( Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas!
I think the style of the fueling system this will always happen. Fuel being forced through the pipework etc. Best of luck with the service mate, thanks for watching and a merry Christmas
@@WilliamMurfitt Thanks for the quick reply buddy :) Im from Malta and finding this information is not the easiest haha I originally watched your mini videos hehe glad to have fount this one too :) I have a 1977 Austin 1000 I'm slowly restoring and once again your videos are very helpful. I have read online that changing the fuel filter to an OEM replacement could solve the issue. ill give it a shot! thanks once again. Keep up the great work
@@RaceByNight cheers mate thats awesome to hear :)
I've just read that a build up of soot in the diesel particulate filter can cause the megane to become sluggish. I don't know if this is any help?
@@matthewtanner9823 yeah that's true but min doesn't have one anymore 😜 and it's still Abit sluggish at times. What I've noticed is that it normally boosts to 22psi and when it feels sluggish it only boosts to 14psi so wandering if it's a fault related to the fuel/boost system.
What is the bulbs you are using for headlights?
Just the standard bulb H7 for the headlight and 501 for the side lights
@@WilliamMurfitt They seems very bright. Thanks man.
They are good, I had thought about upgrading but honestly there is no need to at the moment
I put novsight H7 led in mine improvement is amazing so much better than standard halogen bulbs
@@mikefranky Hi, thanks for the advise. I'll check that too!
Why is fred there
Who is Fred?
Bloody hell who ever serviced that car before you. Didn't torque that plug to spec.
Think they used an impact gun
@@WilliamMurfitt I serviced a Ford fusion last week and I needed my impact to take it off
