Morning all, Having joined back in May 2013 not really sure if I am a new member or not? :-) Either way I noticed that the starter motor mounting bolt visible from looking into the engine bay on my Td4 auto was missing its nut. The nut was off and resting on the engine casing. Having...

Hello all I've owned my Td4 auto for nearly four years now with only one battery change in September 2012. All was well until a month ago, when the battery was flat in the morning. A charge and all was well (only use the car at weekends). So back to Halfords to get battery checked -...

Best cure for low mileage TD4 = slow down and be consistent.. I live in south west London, with an auto 53 plate TD4. I normally get around 280miles /tank when using it day to day around town. However on a run to Birmingham and back I achieved 270miles on half a tank! Kept the speed...

My upgrade in progress so far - DAB Sonichi head unit with USB, mic, Bluetooth ( allows streaming from iPhone, iPad etc). Speakers are component Edge up front. (fitted) with same units to mount in the back (over Xmas ). I was toying with the idea of a subwoofer but didn't want to sacrifice...

Hi all, I have the same issue of fitting a child car seat in front. Any clues on the best way of disabling the bag? I was thinking of fitting a double pole key switch to a point on the dash( one pole for airbag signal, the other for feeding an extra warning lamp to show when the airbag is...
