  1. maybe someone had such a thing or have suggestions that they can make such a sound
    it appears only at a cold start and mainly when it's cold outside
    from the moment I bought the car, I hear this sound
    Car is the Megane 3 rs 2013year

  2. and forgot to say that the sound goes away when the engine warms up
     
  3. Sound like a moped in the distance and then realised it was the car!

    Fuel pump is in the rear, water pump is mechanically driven, do you have washer fluid and is the pump stuck on?
     
  4. water pump new !! I also changed all the belts
    the washer is not turned on but there is water in the barrel
     
  5. Purge valve?
     
  6. Normal for f4r to make that noise from cold in my experience.
     
  7. Now you mention it, most renault ive owned or family have owned sound similar.
     
  8. Thanks for all information.
    I will not pay attention to it more
     
  9. Unless it gets progressively worse. Best of luck.
     

  10. well, in 2 years the sound has not changed
     
  11. Thats a very good sign
