Must investigate that, I found a thread on here were they were quoted at £200 for a 4 pin, and around £90 for a 3 pin mini one, tbh i never check fuel mileage, fill it, drive it, and fill it thanks for the info Big lad

Disconnect the sensor in the airbox, If it fails, it seems to restrict the turbo boost to 1 bar I did mine, and what a difference, never replaced it, they're pretty dear, but no ill-effects at all ( or engine management lights either) cheers

If received faulty, send it back If you screwed it up, whip it out and get an engineering shop to dress or recut the threads I wouldnt weld it, the heat will probably bugger the seals at the very least cheers

Hi All Three amigos have returned, and hawkeye is giving me a 4114 fault code The kit repair was carried out by an independant around 16 months ago, so im wondering if anyone has a link to the diagnosis process for establishing what is actually wrong. ie electrical or hydraulic etc I...

At long last i have found the vibration that has been plaguing my D2 at tick-over. A hearty vote of thanks to the folks at BLRC in Saintfield for getting it. Turns out, it was the replacement engine mounts, mine were pattern ones, they were too hard, and transmitting the aforesaid...

There are some right bastards out there. When you get the dash fixed, then you have to sort out the original abs fault too.

I take it you have the doors closed? It wont pump up with an open door

Mackin 4 by 4 in saintfield perhaps or tas

This is a smashing thread, but I have to ask the burning question...... Do you mind posting what all this work has cost you? Pounds, not stress! cheers

Check engine mounts, There is a small hole in the bottom of them, slide a 6mm drill bit into it, should go in 10 mm or so, any less, (say 2 - 3 mm) and they're scrap, they're oil filled, so you may see wetness About £40 each, and easy to do on the floor, although a helper is handy

I get my 14 year old skinny son to do it, Or, step ladder on one side, a scaffold plank across the ladder to another set of steps, and work off that, I would advise against offering a 14 year old boy sweets to come and wash your car though!!

Thanks Guys, Appreciate the info Gordy

Hi All, I have to replace a couple of core plugs in a TD5 engine, Thing is, the last time I fitted core plugs was in a Chevette, in about 1986! I cant remember what sealant to use, either red hermetite, green hermetite, or blue hylomar. Can someone refresh my memory please Thanks...

You'll have no probs, just dont be hard on the throttle I ran my D1 for years without it, all i noticed was that the rear propshaft rubber coupling wore out sooner than normal All the drive though one shaft i suppose cheers

Fix the air replacement bags are about 80 quid each, and a 10 minute job

Never heard of it mate! Although the wife uses Rose wine for the same thing! Where about is it?

Re engine mounts, i replaced them too last year I dropped the belt, there is a tiny bit of movement in the damper pulley, approx 1mm fore and aft I didnt think to run the car with it off. I did ring my local independant dealer, just to see how many they sell, to be told that they cant get...

I'll drop the belt and have a feel at it. I plan to do the injector seal and washers as a preventative thing, so i think i;ll clean the inlet plenum and intercooler too. Its becoming personal now, the door lock buttons even vibrate, i would dearly love to find it, as its really is driving...

All flutter plus or minus 1percent

Thanks Guys @Musky, never though of that, 140,000 miles. Is that the sort of time you would expect one to go? ecus and wires are fine, i had replaced the injector loom about 3 months ago, it was ok then, it was ok then as when i got the car, i cleaned it, and then smudged rtv gasket sealer...
