How do you repair a speedometer in a 98 Renault Megan Sport Coupe 1.4?
If the speedometer is not working then it may be the speedo transducer that is at fault.
This is fitted into the gearbox just above the drivers side driveshaft, it can be seen from under the bonnet.
The connector that plugs into it has a habit of corroding and causing the speedo to stop working due to a loss of speed signal from the transducer.
The transducer can secured into the gearbox in one of two ways,
by means of a metal clip that slides in to the gearbox casing
Or the transducer has its own clips moulded into its plastic body and these hold it in place.

Also newer Renaults will accept ‘Isofix’ (look for the label attatched to the seat.)
Today while travelling from London to Nottingham the car kept loosing power ( only very slightly ) while accelerating in 5th gear, this coinsided with lots of visible black smoke from exhaust & warning on consoul display ” CHECK INJECTION ” & the orange “SERVICE” indicator illuminated. It cleared within a couple of minutes but kept happening when I needed to overtake. The engine was switched off once on the journey but the problem persisted for the whole journed. However on the return trip the car performed as per normal.
During the problem phase the MPG went down from 48.3 ( normal for fully loaded with kids ) to 39.2
It could be the egr valve is sticking open occasionally, the tend to get gummed up with a lot of soot from the exhaust. Removing the Valve and cleaning it may resolve the problem otherwise it will be a case of getting it replaced.
How ever another problem with very similar symptoms is the variable geometry vanes in the turbo charger sticking ! This was very common on 2004-2005 models and would require a new turbo fitting to resolve the problem. To be sure what you are dealing with the best thing to do would be to get a diagnostic test done on the injection system, at least that way you know your money won’t wasted !
