You can replace the bulb with an led one with a higher equivalent wattage

Hi, sorry to learn of your problem. Yes you can pull the seal out without taking the timing cover off. Lever out the old seal working around a bit at a time with a screwdirver. When putting the new seal on protect sharp edges on the shaft with thin insulating tape and lubricate both shaft and...

If its not too late to tell you, undo the IRD level/filler plug first as these are sometimes difficult to undo and head corners have been rounded off. You cant use the vehicle with an empty IRD!!!

I would suggest injectors problems. High leakage prevents starting because at the low cranking spped the HP pump cannot generate sufficient pressure. At low temperatures O rings harden and do not seal as well as when they are warm. (Remember the Space Shuttle which blew-up because of an O ring...

I go along with Optimus Prime. 10:1 its a leaking injector.

They are not the same, the gear ratios are different. TD4 Manual 3.182:1 TD4 Auto 2.91:1 !.8 4.20:1

Quote: - one screw particularly - the one at the back near the MAF - simply woudln't go it. This problem is caused by the mis-engagement of the sealing fins between the cover and the body at the left end (looking from the front) of the assembly. When refitting the cover dont drop it on the...

Would support all that [I]chromiumuk[I] says. One other point, check the clips which hold the shoes on to the backplate. mine were so tight that they prevented any movement of the shoe on the near side brakes. When I removed the drum at 35k there was no dust (or wear) what so ever, the...

1. Problems with the brake light switch have caused problems with these lights, do a search. 2. Definitely the rear diff front mount. "Green Lanes" supply replacement for £9:95. Replaced one last week. 3. Tyres quoted are standard size so there are no gearing problems. All data transmission is...

All locking methods activate the alarm siren in the event of forced entry. If you lock the car with one turn of the key in the drivers lock once then the internal protection is not activared, necessary if passengers/dog are left in the vehicle. Using this method would at least check if it was...

The TPS you showed in your picture was the one for the mechanically controlled throttle, not the one for the electric throttle. Yours is buried within the black cover of the unit. The one shown bolts on to the outside of the housing.

One of the things that is bizarre to me is that I don't see a thottle cable to the throttle body on mine. The throttle is controlled electrically. Engine demand is sensed by the APP sensor connected to the throttle pedal. This sends a signal to the ECU which drives a DC motor in the throttle...

Have you checked the pressure of the glass on the seal? There are two screws at the bottom of the slides to do it. Rave says it should be compressed by only 1mm.

Thoroughly check the bearings supporting the VCU and their isolation mounts. Also the needle roller bearings in the hardy-spicer joints before you move on to the more expensive parts. As yours is a 98 F/L you may still have an original IRD with the early ratios. Its objection to going round...

Thermal fatigue caused by rapid switching on/off due to dodgy connection? Is the bulb a tight fit in its holder and can the spring contact force be increased?
