Thanks for the info I'll try to get my head round it; One of the pipes goes from the center top of the engine behind the fan to the connection just under the EGR valve. The other one goes to a T piece at the rear of the engine from the bottom of the radiator. I forgot to say its the 2.7 TDV6...

Hello all If like me, Easter is dealing with you RR then I thought it would be a good time for me to ask for help from the wealth of knowledge on here. I was taking some cooling pipes of the engine ( more later ) when i noticed both of these connectors where not in use and reconnected them...

All Just to close out the above problems as it is now solved. A the real time fault suggested it was the sensor. It did come back as did the suspension faults etc. I redid a diagnostic scan and found the common thread running through all the modules was the wheel sensor. I replaced it with a...

Hello All Just a quick update. I did a real time diagnosis o the wheel speed sensors and found the rear right to be defective. I pulled it out and found some rusty detritus to be stuck to the sensor. I cleaned this off and put some contact cleaner on it. I also separated the plug and did the...

OK. I'll get the misses to drive it while I have it plugged in to the diagnostic machine and see what comes up. The Radio has now gone dead after I left it out in the rain last night. It used to just have no sound but now it just doesn't come on, this looks like it could be a water leak problem...

Thanks for the information. I take it it has to be driven when doing it? Thanks Gary

Yes set it to DC. I'll have another go with another meter to see if that's the problem. Might be operator error

Just a quick.update. Due to.a family.crisis I didn't get much done on the weekend but I had a quick go at the voltage. I think there is something wrong with the way I did it as they all read 0. I will have a go during the week/weekend once I get everything sorted and I will let you know the...

Thanks again for the help. I'll got through it as you've instructed and let you know the results.

Thanks again for the brilliant information this will enable me to move forward. I will have a go at the weekend as I need the car for work at the minute and my evenings will be spent welding up my van to enable this to be done. Once I've done the tests I will let you know the results. I...

I'm still working through the above information but I thought I would give a quick update. I scanned the car before doing the master reset and got the following codes: P0500 Speed sensor malfunction C10100 lost communication with ECM/PCM C1A00 Control Module C1A93 Rear Right wheel speed sensor...

Sorry I forgot to say that that the RRS is definitley a 2002 model and it doesn't have a sunroof so no problem with the leak issue in that location.
