How to change spark plugs and ignition coils on Renault Mégane 1.6 16V

[@exile2828]

Thanks for the video, just fixed my misfiring 1999 1.6 megane by changing the coil as it was corroded. This video gave me the confidence to do it. Spark plugs need doing but I don't have the correct tools yet.

You're welcome 😉 ! Happy I could motivate you to do it yourself 👍.

Thanks for the good video! It helped me change the spark plugs on a Megane III Coupé 1.6 16V from 2009, that also uses the K4M engine.
Only difference: instead of Torx T30, the coils are held in place by M10 hexagon bolts.
If you have a torque wrench, Renault recommend 25-30 NM force for tightening the spark plugs.

Just bought a set of 4 coils - replacing the lot will give peace of mind !

[@twiglet2214]

It did the trick so thanks for the guidance.No more stutter/misfire.And the car !

Thanks for the video! I tried this today on my clio 1.4 16v but was unsuccessful. Every bolt that's holding the ignition coils was either overtightned or seized. Will need to drill those bolts out to access the spark plugs. And that's how simple job turns into a nightmare lol

Thanks for the help. I have just come to change mine and there oil in one of the wells . It says the o ring seal needs changing as anyone got a link for a video on how to do that on this model.

What are the symptoms of bad coils? My girlfriends car cuts out when it's cold but seems to be ok once it warms up. I'm thinking possibly a fuelling issue or something

[@paulhudson1996]

Hi mate quick question is there specific ignition coils for 1 2 3 4 all does one coil pencil work with all cylinders?

[@fab-b9818]

Hi Paul, no you can put any coil on any cylinder 😉.

[@hansjansse3926]

You should put grease between the coil and the spark plug

[@ruanrocha3093]

maybe the spark plug's manufactor recommends you to add some grease in there. sometimes there are different recommendations for the same part, cause they're made differently (it's only a suggestion)

[@risendros]

No it's by factory, while installing you need to add flouride grease or else the coil packs will break down prematurely.

[@kevinhancock4064]

@@risendros good tip.so fluoride grease yes ? My cousin git a 1.6 said I'd throw them in for him dome a few before
