    programme alarm to work indicators

    Mine don't flash on locking/unlocking. I know there is a programme to reset it to either sidelights or indicators however my local 'specialist' can't manage it and says there must a fault in the BECM. £60 please sir to tell me that.

    Windscreen vent dont blow hot or cold p38?

    The distribution motor is the easiest one to get to. Assuming yours is rhd take off the under dash panelling on the driver's side and look into the middle. You'll see the motor or at least the white toothed quadrant turning (or not) when you activate the switch. If the teeth are stripped at all...

    Boot not closing on P38

    Whatever you do don't bang it shut or you'll create other problems. Once you've tried the odd adjustment lay it shut very carefully and push it firmly in the middle. If that works it was more than likely a combination of everything the others have said.

    P38 heater - np heat to feet

    Glad to hear it. Sounded mechanical rather than electronic hence no fault showing up.

    New blend motors but............

    It has been flashing and it didn't kick on. My other cars both have AC and they click on as soon as you press the button. Both have Auto setting too.

    New blend motors but............

    I kind of hope that is it because believe it or not the compressor is covered in my warranty, even though the car is the age it is.

    New blend motors but............

    I've done a search but can't quite get the answer. Briefly, AC worked fine after I fitted a new condenser and had it re-gassed in the Summer. In September the right hand heat blend motor stuck on cold so not the best idea for the winter and I reluctantly put the car (2000 P38) into local large...

    P38 heater - np heat to feet

    If it does need a manual tweak, a 70/30 split, screen/ footwell is a good balance to keep the screen clear and your feet warm of course.

    P38 heater - np heat to feet

    Your blend motor may be working and showing as calibrating but is the actual flap stuck in the heater maybe? Do you hear it opening and closing? A bit of partial dismantling on the right hand side will allow you to see the cogged quadrant which is turned by the distribution motor. The panel...

    Does the tailgate lock and unlock ok? That is controlled off the driver's door lock.

    Severe Vibration from Rear Nearside

    Correct, the front shaft should be about £99. Which bush is it for the rear?

    Severe Vibration from Rear Nearside

    A front drive shaft costs £70 new and half an hour at most to fit. The other bit won't be anywhere near £500 so I'd say get a second quote.

    Throttle housing gasket

    Took the whole throttle housing off and stripped the heater cover off the underside. What a stupid design held with three scews! The plate had warped away from the middle screw and being cast when I tried to straighten it - just a little - it went Ping and is now in two halves. No problem though...

    Throttle housing gasket

    Yes its the heater pipe gasket. In situ or take the whole unit off?

    Throttle housing gasket

    After a few checks of the pipework, new jubilees and trimming of the hose ends I have finally noticed that my small coolant leak is from the joint in the throttle body housing. Obviously needs a new gasket but my Q is when I take the throttle body off will it fall into a million bits or is it...

    Male/female abs sensor wires help needed

    Your lights will be off but there will still be a stored fault. You can either get it cleared now or wait until they come on again in which case its elimination as you drive with the computer on live readout. Either way if they are off at the moment, drive on.............

    Male/female abs sensor wires help needed

    If the wires are two coloured in each end then match one for one. If not then its trial and error. One way should be right. On the other hand it could be the completely wrong sensor and have different resistances etc. And the bit you dont want to hear is for just over £40 you could have got a...

    Three Amigo's

    That's mostly out. All that needs to come out now is the metal sleeve. Knock a thin punch or screwdriver between it and the hub and do the old oil and wiggle. It should free and slide out. I wish they'd all come out like that, it would save the drilling and about an hour's time.

    No, you'll need to drill it. The plastic head always comes off. What I do is drill off centre with a 4 or 5 mm drill. This avoids the magnet that runs up the middle. Once you get through to the copper wool near the end you are nearly there. A thin screwdriver or punch then needs tapped down...

    Three Amigo's

    I've done a few sensors lately. They need drilled out (careful you dont go right through to the ring though). No prob in using a bit grease they work on magnetism as long as you get it close enough in but not touching. As far as your sticking caliper is concerned, I had the very same until...
