No worries mate, I am happy to help. It took us much less time than me when doing it for the first time, I think I spend around 5 hrs o mine :) You get that info about inlet manifold and I will gather as much as possible and then we will have a go :D (gotta send my wife for holiday first, just...

Yello guys. Today Hot Fuzz (Paul) came to my place and we had a go at his cars intake manifold pieces. EGR was cleaned, butterfly valve, MAP, and some other bits as well. We had a talk about taking the whole intake manifod out, but that requires a bit more reading and preparation. Seems quite...

I remember my mate had the same problem but in his petrol. Spark plugs were faulty, but I dont know how that applies to diesel? dan

Looks very promising Carl, I am eager to hear from you :). Was thinking about replacing MAF again, but its not possible for now. New MAP sensor is pretty dear as well but as you say you found one on fleabay I will have a look as well. Keep up informed, dan

Exacly, I got philips now and havent repalced it for good 8k.

Hmm, how do I check if the belt was altered?

\thats right, crappy brand. Some time ago i replaced my right one with noname brand. It was dead after 1k. two more tries later and \i invested in proper bulbs, and guess what problem dissapeared. Just get a good brand and you will be ok. dan

Yeehawww!!! You must be well pleased mate.

Nice one Jamie. Your butterfly valve looked a lot more cleaner than mine. I can also see the boost pressure sensor in there, did you clean that one as well? I had to remove it from housing to do it properly. Now bit of a update lads. I removed the boost sensor (I think it indicates the...

I got a diesel and when I quoted my insurance thru gocompare for 2.4 petrol it was much cheeper. Go figure. 2.4 group is 18? 22.2 diesel is 14 i think, so why insuring diesel is dearer? Btw, because of your topic I was on trader looking for 2.4 again....My wife doesnt like it at all :( I can...

Check fuses and switches, its loose connection somewhere for sure. If the car drives ok its some silly thing :)

Nice one mate, been considering doing the same thing:) Very good writeup and proper pics, excellent guide. Dan

Im in tears....Excellent result mate at this point I have 370 miles....(hides in the corner and cries)

Thats the next thing to do in my car as the last time I checked the bush was slightly cracked. Thanks mate it will be easy now:D

Has anything improved mate? Let us know.

Ha! was going to ask the same thing:) Why the passenger side is alwayws working fine?

Hi mate. Was it working before correctly? Does it stay in place when you open it? Dont think battery has anything to do with tailgate operation, mine was working fine after I replaced the battery. It seems to me like a tailgate motor failure... Anything on the dashboard? Dan

I got these too, but I dont use them on rear door windows. The simpsons shades go in there:). They are pretty good, but I would rather have my windows tinted. dan
