matt9999 Posted 18, August 2020 Report Share Posted 18, August 2020 I've got one in white - I like it - the only real quibbles I have with it is the creaky noises which I swear are from the sunroof seals and the lack of confidence in the cupholders. If I had my time again, I would avoid the sunroof option - though I've got some Honda silicon grease coming from the US which I'm hoping is going to solve those noises. Notwithstanding, I'm not convinced that Renault has got the sunroof implementation quite right (at least on my car). I really like the seating position, alcantara on the seats, the sound system and despite the criticisms the infotainment system in general. Once I work out how to disconnect or otherwise override the valve in the exhaust so that its always open - the exhaust noise will be about perfect. As a guide on that, I think it is louder than my wife's X4M and the pitch of it sounds way better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted 19, August 2020 Author Report Share Posted 19, August 2020 Nice looking machine. Are there any easy/cheap performance upgrades? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt9999 Posted 19, August 2020 Report Share Posted 19, August 2020 I'd have to think a new downpipe and a tune would be the cheapest and best bang for buck. There is no secondary cat or resonator however, so maybe taking a risk with the sound of the exhaust and how much the car would stink. You can have a look at the K-Tec Racing website to get a feel for the extent of modifications / parts that are available for the Megane 4's. Plenty of posters on here have suggested the first modification should be swapping out the stock tyres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadster2 Posted 20, August 2020 Report Share Posted 20, August 2020 Question for those with the Meg 4RS EDC. Do they all come with a electric diff? I know the CUP manual versions have a mechanical diff much like the Meg 3 RS. I read something about the newer 2019 onward EDC models getting a mechanical diff but may be mistaken there.

Timster Posted 20, August 2020 Report Share Posted 20, August 2020 The Cup and Trophy model EDC’s have an LSD fitted, but not the sport. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomerRS Posted 22, August 2020 Report Share Posted 22, August 2020 Is that the same car? To me the top looks tonic and the bottom liquid... Could be the outside making it look different though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
