Exhaust Repair Instructions

Model: Renault Megane Megane 1 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Exhaust muffler

If you hear noise coming from the exhaust pipe and especially notice smoke coming from the central area, it is very likely that a hole has formed in the exhaust pipe: specifically, the failure affects the junction between the rigid pipe and the flexible one, a point where it is particularly difficult to perform a weld; a solution to the problem is represented by a repair kit that includes sealing paste and a clamp to cover the hole; lift the vehicle on suitable car ramps, brush the area to be repaired, check that the size of the clamp is correct, apply the sealing paste, fit the clamp using the corresponding strap, and apply more sealing paste; wait 12 hours for the paste to dry completely, and the repair is done.

To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
