What to do if the front hood of the Renault Megane II does not open

Model: Renault Megane Megane 2 - Years 2002-2010
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we can see how to behave if the front hood of the Renault Megane II no longer opens: in fact, the lever no longer releases the hood latch. The YouTuber is therefore forced to enter under the car, at the front, equipped with a flashlight and a screwdriver, to release the spring and open the hood from the bottom. In this way, he had the opportunity to realize that the cable was not broken, but had come out of the guide, so that the lever no longer acts on it. From the top of the hood, he then reinserted the cable into the lock, ensuring that the ball - which serves to keep the cable in place - returned to its housing. And it was useful. It works.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
