Hello I have a Clio 2 Facelift 1.4 16v. I have lost most of the compression in cylinder 2 and decided to replace the engine. It's cheaper than rebuilding and I need the car back up and running fast. I sourced a Megane 1.6 16v with 115hp for a good price locally (Germany). I know the 1.4 and 1.6 16vs are nearly identical but is it a plug and play? Clio vs. Megane and ECU with 1.4 vs. 1.6? Thanks in advance.

Probably not, nothing is ever as easy as you want it to be.

If you need the car running in a hurry you really should have gone like for like.

Yeah I looked into it realising the ECU needs reprogramming and such. but funny enough the 1.4 16vs here are more expensive. I found one for 350€ with shipping. I'll just stick to that one. mine lasted 260.000 km so let's hope the next one will too.
