Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2018 model year cars.
- 1.2 TCe oil consumption (H5F)Serious
Early Mk4 Meganes with the 1.2 TCe engine are prone to high oil consumption. This is a well-documented issue that can lead to carbon buildup and eventual engine failure if the oil level is not strictly maintained.
- EDC low-speed shudder and actuator issuesModerate
The Megane’s dual-clutch automatic can hesitate or shudder in traffic and may need software work or more expensive clutch and actuator repairs if ignored.
- Blue dCi AdBlue and NOx-sensor faultsModerate
Later Euro 6 diesels can suffer from SCR warnings, NOx-sensor faults and AdBlue system issues that create limp mode or repeated check-emissions messages.
