Replacement of steering tie rods

Model: Renault Megane Megane 2 - Years 2002-2010
Part: Tie rods

Lift the vehicle and secure it, then remove the wheel for easier access to the mechanics. Use some penetrating spray to easily loosen the adjustment nut of the tie rod, which should then be unscrewed using a spanner. Unscrew the tie rod bolt and pull it out from its seat. Rotate the freed tie rod until it is completely unscrewed. Screw the new tie rod onto the pin and insert the other end into the wheel arm. Tighten the corresponding bolt. Adjust the lock nut and secure it. After this operation, it is necessary to check the wheel alignment.
