Renault Megane window gone

    Looks like the window regulator on the Megane has gone again, I read somewhere a while back that Renault had extended the warranty on regulators or were covering the cost of part of the repair given that it is a know issue.

    Anyone else have more concrete info on this?

    Yes I had window mechanism fail when megane just under 4 years old and apparantly a known fault and the warranty on this item was extended to four years from previous 2 years. I got it done in main dealer and in a short time the door opening/lock on that side of car is faulty. No joy in getting them to admit they might have had something to do with it!:mad:

    The OH's passenger electric window is also gone - for the second time and not including that the drivers went previously also. It's 06.

    400+ to fix!!! My God thats criminal!

    My wifes regulator went on an 01 Focus, got the part for 55 euro from a scrap yard and with a search on internet found pictured instructions to install it.
    Myself and my Dad did it in about 1-1.5 hr.

    If you know a mechanic see if you cna get the part yourself from scrap yards and get mechanic to put it in.

    Ebay is full of Megane regulators, buy one and get a mechanic to fit it for you, €400 is robbery.

    What year is your Megane? Renault do have an extended goodwill on them, depending on the year.

    Regulators are covered for 4 years I believe.
