Common Engines:
The Renault Megane II (2003-2008) was offered with a range of petrol engines including 1.4 16V (K4J), 1.6 16V (K4M), 1.8 16V (F4P), and 2.0 16V (F4R). Diesel engines included 1.5 dCi (K9K) and 1.9 dCi (F9Q).
Example Power Output:
1.6 16V (K4M) typically produced around 110-115 PS (108-113 hp / 81-85 kW).
Example Torque Output:
1.6 16V (K4M) typically produced around 152 Nm (112 lb-ft) of torque.
Fuel Delivery:
Electronic Multi-Point Fuel Injection (MPI) for petrol engines, Common Rail Direct Injection (CRDi) for diesel engines.
Recommended Fuel:
Unleaded petrol (e.g., 95 RON) for petrol engines, Diesel fuel for dCi engines.
Timing Belt Replacement:
Refer to manual for specific intervals, typically 5 years or 90,000-120,000 km for K4M/F4P/F4R, and 6 years or 120,000-160,000 km for K9K/F9Q. Critical maintenance item.
Oil Specification:
Varies by engine and climate, consult manual. Common specifications include Renault RN0700, RN0710, or ACEA A3/B4, A5/B5. Example: 5W-40 or 5W-30.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 15,000 km (approx. 9,000 miles) or 1 year, whichever comes first. Diesel engines may have slightly different intervals, consult manual.
Air Filter Replacement:
Every 30,000 km (approx. 18,000 miles) or 2 years, or as per manual depending on driving conditions.
Cabin Filter Replacement:
Every 15,000 km (approx. 9,000 miles) or 1 year, or as per manual. Essential for cabin air quality.
Brake Fluid Change:
Every 2 years, regardless of mileage, to maintain braking performance and prevent moisture absorption.
Coolant Type:
Renault Type D coolant (long-life antifreeze/coolant), typically a 50/50 mix with distilled water. Consult manual for specific part number (e.g., Renault Coolant Type D).
Brake Fluid Type:
DOT 4 brake fluid, low viscosity (LV) recommended for ABS systems. Consult manual for specific Renault specification.
Common Problems:
Examples include coil pack failures, electronic faults (keyless entry, immobilizer), suspension component wear (ball joints, bushes), potential DPF issues on diesel models, and water ingress in certain areas.
Repair Focus:
Manual provides detailed procedures to address these common issues, including diagnostics and component replacement.
