Even the comparison sites put their prices up the closer you get to the date you need it. If you do it a few weeks in advance you get a better deal.

And if you start messing about with it they will wash their hands of it.

was it this post

At 200k miles I know where I'd place my bet.

If there are no fault codes it's probably a torque converter issue. Especially as there's no drive.

as @marjon says, what's the gearbox history. They generally need a rebuild around 100k miles.

It wasn't a who it was the screen wash....................honest :) Note to self, Don't let the wife do a handstand against the rear window.

What make of screen wash was it 😲

If the rubber O ring has gone it may be full of screen wash.

The rear wiper will just be finishing off it's sweep. There's a sensor and a magnet so it knows it's not parked. The motor armature sits in a bush rather than a bearing and can get a bit rusty and start to sieze and draw too much current. Mine did exactly the same thing before it eventually gave up.

Then after the third attempt replace it :)

It's a worm gear so you can't move it by hand. It has current sensing so it turns off if it draws too much. If you're quick you can turn the ignition off and on then leg it to the back and help it along before the motor stops again.

The suspension fault I was chasing for 18 months was from a bodge by a previous owner where they had just twisted the wires together. The more green the connection became the more often it happened. Once I found and soldered it it's been fine.

Like this :)

OP's is similar to my 2005 although I can't find anything with the part number printed on his.

Sounds like you have a rear sensor on the front. The voltage change is opposite between front and rear.

It won't adjust with a door open. It should stay at what ever height you select. Although it will self level every 4 hours or so. Off to work now so going off line.

Are all your doors shut when you're sat in it with the engine running?

To add to what @marjon said. For the 3 wires one is 0v, one is 5v (reference voltage) and the last one changes depending on the vehicle height via a carbon track inside the sensor. You can measure the changing resistance as you move the arm.

If you lower it does the display show all 4 corners have lowered?
