Hey everyone,
My first post!
I've come to the forum in the hope to get some advice / help / possible work on the following issues on my R26:
- Hub bearings
- window regulator
- steel braided HEL lines
- brake squeel!
- general health check
I've had my car in to a few mechanics locally to look at these things (apart from the HEL brake lines, that's an upgrade), but they are not megane R26 specialists and my attempts to get things fixed have been a bit useless.
I saw the R26 hub bearing guide here, so I'm hopeful that someone on the forum knows what they are doing with the Megane. I was wondering if someone could take a look at the car for me (I'd obviously pay for the work!). I can feel myself coming to the end of my patience with the car as I've had all these niggly things going on for years, and I just want it sorting
I had the hub bearings done at Aarons Autos in Derby, but the car didn't feel any different afterwards. So maybe they didn't need doing? I'm not sure! I have recently heard a rattle / rumbling sound at low speeds when going over bumpy ground, and the steering does seem slightly tighter than usual when going round roundabouts. It would be grand to get someone to do the check on the hub bearings just to see if they are seized or not. If one person can fix all the above things for me that would absolutely amazing, as I know us Renault petrolheads seem to be spread across the UK!
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers, Jonathan
