Rear diff mount for sure I reckon.

By the way, the affect of the air con on your power or economy is really negligible, probably less than 5% at the absolute most. Compared with the lossy auto box which is probably eating 20% of your fuel it's really not worth worrying about. It is good practice to turn it in for 10 mins at least...

Yip defo the air con. That tube thing is your steering rack!

Did you clean the connectors under the seat for the seatbelt pretensioners? Still think the light needs resetting using testbook - I'm pretty sure its a requirement on cars that the SRS light stays on after a fault and only goes off after it's been checked - this is life and death stuff...

Where is the hose? Got a picture? Also, could still just be the air con as sometimes it's automatically on.

The airbag module is one a lr proprietary comm so you will probably need a testbook or t4 to connect to it. For example at one garage I took mine too their code reader was showing a faulty abs speed sensor but when plugged in to a proper testbook, the only fault was the airbags!

If it's the red oil pressure light that flickered, don't drive it anymore, at least until youve got it topped up with oil. If it is the pressure light then it must be very low on oil and the resulting oil starvation could cause serious damage. Speak to the garage to see if they will recover it...

Hallelujah!!! Your brakes are obviously working well now then! Virtually new all round.

Srs light was also on on mine. Cleaned all the connectors and replugged several times but it didn't go out. Got the light reset on testbook and it's stayed off since. I wonder if this "one use only, needs to be replaced" refers to if the airbags actually go off, rather than just a fault causing...

Good news! Glad you got it sorted and thanks for letting us all know!

+1. Just keep an eye on your tyre treads in particular and perhaps check how warm the vcu is getting after longer journeys. I changed the vcu on the car I bought because it felt a bit tight on full lock but the replacement was exactly the same!

The SRS light was on on my car, 2003 TD4, and it needed reseting by someone with a t4 / testbook, didn't turn off on it's own. As others have said, most common reason is the connection to the seatbelt pre-tensioners. And as has been said, yellow plug under the seat, clean the connection and also...

True... and they do love a tricked out, big-engined ute!

It's an Australian article.

Mine runs for a minute everytime.

Is this unit still for sale?

No worries.... I'm sure it mentions in the thread about how to check it's actually working. The solenoid basically moves an arm which alters the turbos vanes to give the variable boost. From what I've read, if the solenoid stops working and therefore not moving this arm, the vanes in the turbo...

This is normal behaviour. Although you've changed the solenoid, have you actually checked if the actuator's working? i.e. is the solenoid doing what it's supposed to when it's supposed to? Can the arm move freely to alter the turbo vanes? Have you tried changing air filter, turbo vent filter...

First thoughts are either a faulty ignition switch or faulty starter motor solenoid. You need to check something to confirm. If you've got a multimeter you need to see if there is a voltage being applied to the starter motor when you turn the ignition key (let me know if you don't know how to...

Do you hear a click from the engine when you turn the key to start it?
