the warnings are telling you there is a fault on the electrical system .. have the vehicle scanned by diagnostic computer

Hi,
i had exactly the same problem and it is v.common in meganes. its very easy to sort out. just change the coils (especially faulty one) adn that will sort all your probs incl fault-lights.
changing coils is easy DIY job, let us know if u want to do it?

start by adding a good fuel injector cleaner to the tank ! .. also remove clean/replace the CKP (crankshaft position) sensor !!
