Hi guys just thought out of courtesy I would post an update, I intend to do a full post on it when I am sat down and free from fixing it....may never happen then lol !
L322 2002 TD6 suspension inactive.
Anyway you will see from my other posts I had a message pop up every time i exceeded the magic 25 mph and all pointers were ABS pump which it was not !
After a lonf and very helpfull telephone converstation with Stustrong and him guiding me on INPA he suggested I raise the car by 10 all round which I did, I then took for a blast and hit 40mph no errors ! it was at 10om dark and I were taking her out the next day (friday) and were going to test fully then, anyway saturday morning I started up all excited like a small child with a new toy and I even had the L322 excited as bubble started toappear from under the bonnet ! as I lifted it to find the gearbox water cooler pipe had been severed by the viscous my excitment dropped some (pipe had been routed incorrectly across front of fan) and as I reang Guy Salmon i were getting sadder but then they said they could get next day £36 so saturday 9.30 I collect race home and start, well I have severed nerves in jy spine suffer seberly with my back which did'nt really help but after an hour I managed !!! yes did it, filled her up warmed up and held off until Sunday.
10am start up and we drove 10 miles, 70 mph and no errors, dropped into motorway mode and raised up again what excitetment !
In total we drove 100 miles sunday and she did everything as she should have.
Looking around the car she is showing signs of having been layed up, damp in the right places (cant find any leaks) on mating surfaces etc as I go further into her I find bits and peices that suggest she may have been sat for a few months.
Re wired a stereo in to her previous owner cocked that up ! used original wires to and from boot to doors and head unit.
She did blow fuse 15 the other day central locking but may have been phone in lighter socket or the main feed for stereo I used for power but has not for last 70 miles so keeping eye on this, had no drivers window or central locking so changed fuse in glove box and done.
I just wanted to keep you all posted and let you know the progress.
Thanks to all that have helped especialy Stustrong.
