I Second the coil pack, have you any fault codes from diagnostic other than miss fire?
Re: megane sport Help!!!!
they are coil on plug, no ? worth trying a spare (don't go buying one new just to prove the theory!) but neat fuel out of the exhaust is a bit random. there wouldn't be enough fuel to notice at the tail pipe at idle from a correctly firing injector, IE the amount of fuel is tiny, so if you can visably see fuel then either that injector is stuck on or it's not all fuel you're seeing!

Coil pack for sure, they are coil on plug so just whip the engine cover off and fire the engine up. you can then just unplug one coil at a time (its safe to do so with the engine running) until you find which one it is.
Very common problem with this type of coil, had the same issue on my V6, over the space of 2 years I replaced 5 of the 6 coils!!
Re: megane sport Help!!!!
renaults are backwards to most engines so 1 is 4 and 4 is one :sad2:.coils are where id look first but dont unplug them at the top of the coils as there are wired up in pairs, instead unplug the injectors one by one and see which cylinder/coil it is.
injectors arent uncommon on these either but shouldnt be that much that it drops out the back:eek:
Re: megane sport Help!!!!
plug was checked by the RAC guy...he had a spare one!!!!!!
how odd
Ended up being an injector!
had to have an oil change, filter, new injector, four new plugs and oil treatment.
renault tried to tell me it needed a new cat and they could replace it for £890!! (thats just the part)
£450 to put the car right.
knew i shouldnt of taken it to the main dealer.
if the cats tanked i may have to invest in a sport cat.
but on the plus side the R5 has been running a dream past few weeks the meganes been dead. carb freeze in a morning, but nothing the car mat cant fix.
Re: megane sport Help!!!!
I have 4 x Coil packs and 1 x Cat for a 225 megane if you require them as spares.,
