Renault Megane - Video tutorial

Model: Renault Megane Megane 1 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: Front shock absorber replacement instructions

It should be noted immediately that the replacement of the front shock absorbers requires specific equipment such as clamps to compact the springs. Having said that, lift the car on suitable car stands (better if you can have a bridge) and remove the front wheel; remove the cable guide bracket and then the pins fixing the shock absorber to the wheel hub by extracting them and releasing the shock absorber; access the engine compartment to remove the fixing pins of the shock absorber support to the frame dome and then extract the shock absorber from its seat. Then apply the clamps to the spring to be able to compact it, remove the upper support from the old shock absorber and remove the rubber bellows; insert the bellows and the spring on the new shock absorber, apply the support and release the spring by loosening the clamps. Then proceed backwards to install the new shock absorber on the car, first fixing it to the dome and then to the hub.
