Thanks Andy. I'm not sure what kind of code reader the mechanic in the village uses but I'll ask him if can read the codes for me.

If the horn and volume controls still work, as they do, does that rule out the clock spring being faulty?

My days of aggressive driving are well behind me! I'll check the wiring connections, thanks.

I don't understand 'meter it out'. Does it sound like I need a new clock spring?

Hi again. SRS light came on today. Madrid and back tomorrow, is it safe to drive with the SRS light on? 700km.

I did that, it was as clean as a whistle!

Solved, but don't ask me how! It's a 3 door so I lifted the roof a little to open the tailgate. Door card off, all looked good, just caked in dust so a good clean down, relifted the roof, closed the tailgate and the window went down. Raised it with the key in the lock and all has been good so...

Y Yes, the door now releases. I'll try push the glass down by hand. Cheers.

Thanks Andy, just done a just done a battery disconnect. The external switch and actuator are working now but the window still won't drop, so I still can't open the tailgate. Also now when I use the centre console switch, the window doesn't move but I get a series of 4 beeps.

Thanks GrumpyGel, but before that I'm not sure how to get to the actuator to manually operate it to open the tailgate. The door card is still on.

Hi All. I know this has been discussed on numerous occasions but no amount of searching has solved my problem so apologies for raising this issue again. The springs in the tailgate handle went some time ago but I was able to continue using the tailgate without any problems, moving the handle...

Passed it's ITV (MOT) yesterday. This time, instead of using a roller under the wheel to avoid damage to the transmission during the brake test, they tested each wheel individually instead of each axle at a time as they have done previously. Must be an update to the brake testing equipment.

I think it could be drawing air in, the pump is quiet with the ignition on and becomes noisy once I start the engine.

I'm going to post it to my brother-in-law in the UK, he'll TIG weld it and post it back to me.

If I remove the solenoid, will it illuminate the MIL?

Hi, hope someone can offer some advice. The metal mounting bracket which holds the EGR solenoid to the side of the block has cracked and broken, I assume the engine vibrations have caused a stress failure. I can buy a new bracket but can only find a genuine one, in the UK and by the time I pay...

I did think that but wasn't sure how I can check that. Any suggestions? Just so I've got the fuel direction clear in my mind, am I correct in saying that the fuel leaves the tank via a rigid pipe, there is then a quick connector, a rigid piece of pipe which bends through 180° and goes to the...

Another update. The third pump has been fitted today, a Bosch, and this is noisy too! I'm beginning to think I must be doing something wrong during the installation but I can't think what. Anybody have any ideas what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks for the info. I've been using Amazon.es here in Spain to supply the pumps but it appears as if it's down to luck of the draw which ever make of pump you order. Using maybe some twisted logic, I have ordered a Bosch pump, hoping it's a TI Automotive when it arrives. Perhaps that way I'll...

A quick update. I returned the first Pierburg pump and was sent a replacement Pierburg which when fitted, was no better than the first one. They both made enough of a whine that I could hear them over the road/wind noise travelling at 50 kph. They both came in the correct packaging and were...
