i have one just done an engine change on an "r" reg pump is still on old block you can have for £100 i am in the midlands if this helps

any more than £200 you are being stitched up but you must have the pulley tool to change otherwise it will cost a damn site more when the chain drops,what makes you think the pumps gone anyway

have had a few of these lately mostly turned out to be not enough antifreeze(must be 50%) or the wrong type of antifreeze,the sensor doesnt actualy go in the coolant just in a tube in the expansion bottle and the density of the water makes a lot of difference to the sensor,check this first if...

taking seats apart aint that bad as long as you have time patience and a few basic tools if you are going to change them go find a set out of a volvo they are bulletroof the whole car will die but the seats will still get warm,only problem i found was they dont get as hot as rr ones but they...

re: testing weghts any dual purose vehicle above 3t on the vehicle weight plate goes to class 7 test and always has,there was a general reminder of this earlier this year and late last year due to the influx of yank tanks as testers we were all told to be carefull as to what was being tested in...

from the readings high co and low lambda it leans towards lambda sensors fault doesnt mean the sensors though had a 4.0td5 in recently that the guy had shelled out 1800 quid at the stealers new sensors/cats/coolant sensor and crank sensor still not fixed it and they still charged him ,turned out...

what where all the readings from the second emissions test lambda/hydrocarbons and co this always gives you a good clue as to the fault if its slightly high upto about 0.65% on co and others are within tolerence it will be the cats

i have had this on two of mine and both times it was the tailgate (lower)not being latched properly push tailgate both sides to make sure they are latched and try it on a drive

it wont be the crank sensor it will start and tickover at about 2500 rpm and the rev counter wont work if that is shagged woulsuggest fueling problem if it is intermitant airlock or fuel return best guess

halfords are only good at one thing getting something decent sending it to china and getting it copied at a fraction of the cost i think it was tents last year, magnatex is good but run a hydraulic tappet fluid(forte if you can find it) through it before you change the oil and make sure you go...

if the noise only appears after getting warm it is going to be a hydraulic used to have this on one of my bmw,s it was down to oil on that, changed that to a good quality oil it was alright after and never put cheaper oil in after and problem never came back .might work cheaper than changing...

it will be the crank sensor it is either knackered or needs adjusting in a bit but be carefull as you can knock the end off it,when yours is running normally just pull the plug off and you will get the same symptoms 2000rpm and no rev counter

100% gaurunteed at near as damn it to 200bhp y25dt is the same engine as the 525tds 0nly on the 2001 engine the extra power must be in the engine or pump as everything else was off the rr the turbos were exactly the same size but the omega one exhausted in the wrong place so couldnt be fitted...

i already have about 200 bhp in my 99dhse with only two alterations 1)2001 vaux omega y25dts engine(standard 160bhp) 2)re mapped ecu extra 35 to 45bhp 400 quid for an intercooler not enough boost value 400 quid for an exhaust the same 500 for a bigger turbo thats still only going into the...

depends on how much you want to spend bigger intercooler wont make much of a difference for the cost nor will the staight through exhaust these two will cost you more than having it chipped/remapped or an add on unit that will add anywhere between 20 and 40 bhp mine has got a late omega engine...

fuel temp sensor is in the pump and if you have timing issues it is either your pump (timing control valve)or mechanical but i doubt the latter sorry!!!!! ian

have looked on the troubleshooter(snap-on modis)error 25 is glow plug or controller so i would suggest you have a knackered glow plug before you worry about injector no 4 check them it costs nothing to check if your doing it yourself ,take all wires off glow plugs test the plugs then make sure...

after reading about the elusive 150 bhp diesel engine fitted to a 525tds i tried to find one but couldnt so i settled for a late omega engine due to time constraints(misses moaning about nicking her car)looked on autodata was only fitted to the bmw or so i thought, i had to have the lot as a rod...

six sided socket as suggested and get the engine as hot as you dare we generally leave them running for about an hour when they do start to move work them in and out a bit at a time with lots of penetrating oil works for me

tell the dealer get his head from up his backside and do his job the law states that you have the right to repair your own vehicle and they can not legaly refuse to give you the code but they are allowed to charge for it and you will have to take log book and i.d with you if they refuse again...
