Hippo,
Thanks for the advice. I'm getting it ready for the MOT so I'll check out the front end as you suggest. The workshop is going to take off the prop during their investigation, so I'll pass on the ird info.
Teddy,
Workshop think not on the IRD they feel the problem would be more apparent across speed and rpm.
Diesel,
Its in for check at end of month. i've asked them to look further than just transmission.
Thanks to you both, I'd love to get it sorted.
My 2003 TD4 Kalahari Auto has a fault. I had the VCU bearings replaced last November as the transmission noise over 30 mph was bad. When I got it back the noise was only a little better and I was told my rear diff had excessive play and this was probably the main source of noise. On top of this...
Sorry, I got muddled about which window wasn't working. I wouldn't recommend trying to apply 12v without a wiring diagram. If you touch the wrong wire it could melt the wiring loom or even start a fire. Get yourself a multimeter and test the switch directly. As you have the assembly out, you...

Swap the switch with the switch from your passenger window. If the window works you have a faulty switch, if it doesn't you have a motor, mechanism or wiring fault. Hope this helps.
You should find that only the most exposed areas of pipes are affected. I normally rub these down with medium paper until they show clean metal. I then coat these cleaned areas with two coats of Black Waxoyl. The MOT in NI is very tight and this is accepted by them and lasts well with minimal...
This happened to me but it only affected passenger side. Turned out to be an on line connector, the clip had broken and the connection had become high resistance. It's just behind the headlight level adjuster. This could explain the delay in lighting as my connector fault was intermittent.
