Mine took considerable force to get off, isn’t there a rubber seal missing on ^^^?

Like a lady I used to know. Ooops I digress :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Isn't that what the archbishop said to the actress lol.

Best trying to remove tints on a hot day then stand a better chance of not leaving any residue behind, must have been tints in back of car I have now and it's been a bloody pain trying to get what ever it is that it leaves behind off !

If the steering angle sensor is out of calibration that can kick the abs in so best get the codes read.

You forgot the step ladder and scaffolding 😂

Looking at the engine from the front, the turbo is on the left of the engine. The pressure hose comes off the turbo and into the intercooler at the front bottom left. The second hose comes out the intercooler bottom right and goes up to the egr...

Bonnet in service mode and plenum champer out makes a world of difference when doing engine work!

Wow, must be about 4 foot long !

My torque wrench does 350nm :D

Don't know about the vd struts, but on the standard ones the strut only turned so far hence being handed. With the strut bolt a 2ft breaker bar and as much weight as you can put on it is close (so ft tight!)

Is that all you got out ! You ain't trying very hard I usually finish up with twice that amount out lol. When you resemble try the CV joint in several different places in the hub , I found when changing both fronts last year that they went in...

I bought the headlight bulbs you listed and they don't fit mine (2008 my l322) if yours is later they should fit, I couldn't be arsed to send them back know doubt they will get used somewhere someplace.

Yup, made very sure!

Hope you went for the can bus ones or the LCM going to love you lol.

That poor train keeps going through the buffers :vb-biggrin:

I'd go for an air lock aswell🤔 How was the system bled? There are way to many things on a lot of engines with their own coolant pipes and air locks are a nightmare sometimes to get rid of 🤬

Others will know better than I, but an airlock is a possibility as is a faulty heater control valve.

Ah great, I will check the cable first and give the angle drive a bit of WD-40 for good measure👌🏻

Yes old school lol. Might be a right angle drive behind the Speedo , they can get a bit dry giving same fault.

This says to me the compressor can't get any pressure into the system. Not tried it but assume there's a way to disconnect the output connection and see if you can stop the air with you thumb over the hole. Assuming you don't have a pressure...

It is known to fix some things on l322 so it's always worth a go.

Have you tried the battery disconnect for half hour reset procedure. And shorting the terminals together (NOT BATTERY TERMINALS) to drain residual power from the ECU's?

^^^^ What he said. I believe it's underneath it.

Big black box on top of right side inner wing.

A good number of us have already fitted the larger battery so what issues would you expect?

These cars are very power hungry, the right battery is the biggest that will fit in the hole

The permanent live on 7 pin systems is in the second 7 pin connector denoted 7S.

Are you sure that the MAP sensor should have a 12 volt supply? If not and you applied 12 volts the sensor is probably toast.

@Varks74 Just a thought. Have you tried swapping the fibers over on the display in case they have accidentally been switched round?
