Hi All, Thanks for the information. A solenoid is a type of relay that handles current of 60A upwards and needs several amps to energise. A relay is used to switch a few mA upto a few 10's of amps, so the ecm would have the current capability to energise a small(ish) relay which would, in...

Hi All, Does the 2004 L322 TD6 have a starter relay to energise the starter solenoid on the starter motor itself? I've looked through RAVE and found references to Engine bay relay box (P125a) and the starter relay (RL16) but where is the starter relay? I can't find one. Cheers Gary

Hi DataTek, Thanks for the ideas. I assume the 'lift pump' is the fuel feed out of the tank. Looks like a jack up and crawl around under the car, Oh joy. Thanks Gary

Hi, Thanks for the advice. I have a copy of RAVE and having looked up the fuel system information and am more confused than ever. I have items on my L322 fuel system that do not appear in RAVE. I have uploaded two photos. Can anyone identify the parts indicated? I have read many posts re...

Happily driving my L322 when the 'Fuel System Error' message displayed and the engine just died. Managed to steer off the road and called the AA. At this point, the engine cranked fast but did not start. The AA mechanic arrived and removed part of the air input plastic pipework and squirted...

2004 L322 Td6 RR Vogue - Key Fob Both my key fobs have had several replacement rubber (button) covers and awful clickable plastic bits to work the thing, which do not last very long. Finally tiring of this, I replaced the clickable plastic bits on one fob by soldering in 3 small push buttons...

Fixed it. The main engine thermostat had failed so the FBH remained on all the time. Replaced the 'stat - all is good.

Hi Brian, Yes, the battery is good. I monitor the charging and it is steady at 14V. Cheers Gary

2004 L322 Td6 RR Vogue - Air Suspension/Instrument Panel I have an intermittant Air Suspension/Instrument Panel problem. When I start the RR, sometimes the Air Suspension/Instrument Panel work fine and all the led's come on and the Air Suspension works. Other times I get the Air Suspension...

When purchased, the doors all locked/unlocked ok with both the remote and the dashboard button. Without warning the N/S/R door lock ceased responding. The door can be opened from the inside. A couple of weeks ago, the N/S/F door lock became unreliable. Sometimes it will respond, other times...

Hi All, I have a 2004 L322 Tdi6. It starts and runs fine, no smoke. When I switch off the engine, a fan runs and blows a lot of blue smoke from under the car. What has gone wrong? Cheers Gary

Ahha! CAN BUS LED's, haven't heard of those. I have invested a whole £2.79 in a pair of suitable LED's from eBay. Worth a shot. What is the 2010 led conversion? I have tried googleing it but haven't found the information. Cheers Gary

Hi Wammers, Would it be sufficient to just pull the SRS fuses before I start unsnapping the plastic fixings? Cheers Gary

Hi All, My drivers door panel is no longer snugly fitting to the inside of the door. I want to remove the panel to repair/replace any of the fittings that snap the door card firmly against the metalwork of the door itself. How do I do this without firing off the SRS device? Cheers Gary

Hi All, I have replaced my ordinary sidelights with nice bright white LED's. They work fine but every time I turn the ignition on (and off) I get the warning chime and the message (check sidelight bulbs) displayed. How can I tell the system that these bulbs are OK? Cheers Gary
