Err, no! Got to do the brake drums soon so when I'm in there will give it a quick smear - don't want to go through that again. Thanks for the tip, I wish I had read all the post before doing the job, I didn't because I thought it was a simple job. Lesson learnt always do your research no...

Earth cable - yes i know there should be one and I did put the clip back in place but no cable. I know what to expect next time and will allow longer! Still trying to get rid of the diesel smell - tools wont rust!

Changed the fuel filter on my 03 TD4 and can confirm this is a hard job! My filter is in the rear wheel arch and was stuck solid. Lots of cursing and hammering and it finally came out - then the new one just slides in! On a plus side the two bolts were OK and the rivets holding the plastic...

Here are my readings: still no temp? Will monitor over time and try other apps and computer progs. All so far have shown -40.

Will set my screen the same as above and take it for a spin after work. Thanks

Thanks for that, it read correctly on my Audi. Will leave it monitoring next time I go on a run. I paid for the torque pro so now can log as I go along. Will update when proper readings taken. Cheers

I have a 2003 TD4 and decided to connect an ELM 327 to it and see what it gave me. The software I've used is torque and this seems to be OK, I also tested the ELM in my other car (Audi) and it worked correctly. The problem area is temperature, all the temps read -40! Has anyone seen this...

My Lego switch was certainly stronger than the original but unfortunately it was a bit slack at the top end!

Thanks for that, no fault lights on my dash.

I tried to put the lights on recently and the switch would only go from off to side lights. So I used some violence on it and it promptly broke! Leaving me with the side lights stuck on. I striped down the switch unit and found the 3 posn light switch was very sticky, I cleaned this off and...

Had a good look in the engine bay today and can't see any spare cables. I did note that the hose has a part number sticker on it, this indicates it has been replaced. Hopefully, it has been replaced by a newer version and does not require the lead? Looking at other pics on int'net I can see...

The only bit i needed was: Car Aerial Adaptor For Car Radio ISO to DIN Price:£0.70...

Good point! Thanks again.

OK Will get in the engine bay tomorrow and see what I can find. Typical getting a car that is on the edge of model changes! Thanks

Cheers. Should be OK, thanks for the help.

My model is Oct 2003 with serial number 289---. So I take it there is no requirement for this sensor? Will still get around her tomorrow and report back. Thanks

No idea! I think it controls a previous hands free kit because there are mics on both sides but I can't find the wiring. The car did have a big red button instead of an air vent on the passenger side and this stopped the engine. Previous owner ran a driving school and used the FL for trailer...

Thanks for the response. Should have said; I have the sensor in the pipe but there is no cable attached to the sensor. I will give it a good torching too tomorrow and see it I can spot any leads towards the back of the engine/under tray. Interesting point about the year change, could be...

Hi Not had Hippo long and the first job was to fit a hands free kit for my mobile. After lots of searching I came across this Pioneer DEH-4500BT, it has a Parrot hands free system built in. I was concerned about the connectors at the back but went ahead anyway. The job took about 15 minutes...

TD4 Auto (2003) On td4 the tube that connects the intercooler to manifolfd has two types, the first one is one piece: The other type has a join in the middle with a lead coming off. I have the join in the middle but where the lead should be attached there is nothing? What does this...
