Hi the reason that you cannot get pattern parts is that the bushes are bonded to the bar, changing them is difficult but not impossible, if you search around you might be able to pick up some rubber bushes (after a year of searching I eventually found rubber front bushes but still cannot find...

Hi, does anyone have an old knackered air compressor (2002-2005 model) I am only looking for the bolt that holds on the piston and don't need the whole compressor, if you are interested I can tell you why I need it but boring enough to say I broke the original as it's a left hand thread and I...

Hi, I have an 02 L322 TD6, I was changing the Thermostat (a Job I would never do again, and I have been fixing my own cars for 40 years) anyway I snapped one of the plastic diesel return pipe connectors that sit on top of the injector, does anyone know where I can get one of these, I have tried...

Hi, sorry for the late reply, I was actually reading about similar issues on another forum and came across this and at under £10 for a replacement switch I decided it was worth a try, I still get the HDC inactive etc etc, it goes away if I switch off, but will pop up again after anything between...

Hi, thanks for that and would appreciate your help, need to work out how to PM and we can exchange details and I could bring the car around (sorted brake light's by replacing switch but still have the HDC inactive/Abs etc popping up)

Well, I sorted the issue, it was a knackered brake switch, replaced it with a pattern part and everything returned back to normal, if it goes again I will get a RR part

Ok I have all the HDC Inactive/Suspension inactive and brake warning light (All Amber) Having read a few posts I saw that this could be down to a poor battery (which is surprising as I was on holiday for a week and when I came back it started off the button) so checked battery voltage this...

Hi, my 2002 L322 has failed it's mot, one of the failures was the rear outer balljoint bushes (both sides), I have tried the home remedy approach to pulling/extracting the bushes with no luck, I am looking for someone, within a reasonable distance of Livingston, who may have the extractor and is...

Just to let you know, I got the replacement LCU, fitted it and it worked straight away so have all my lights, just need to sort the amp/stereo and satnav and I will be happy

I could be wrong but I think it is the relay as that should indicate when the wyper is at the park position, sounds as if it is not getting that signal have you checked Rave?

Ok so decided to move from a P38 (after my 5th) to an L322, I know just full of problems, well the first one is to do with the lights, I drove the car up the road only to e told that My Side/brake and indicaters were all on constant, when I checked the front headlights were also on, however when...

Hi got a problem with my 2.5DT, it stalls when approaching roundabouts/traffic lights etc but only when it is hot, been told it needs to be put on a diagnostics to see if it is recording an error so looking for anyone in Livingston/West Lothian/Edinburgh area that might have Nanocom or...

Jacckk, thanks, might take you up on that offer, heading off home (livingston, Scotland) on Friday, then off for a week (to Sunny Majorca) but might try to arrange something for the following week

Wammers thanks for that, new glow plugs already installed, know anyone in Newcastle with Faultmate or similar? and it runs perfectly, only stalls after a long run, can drive about town without issues

Hi, as per the title I am in Newcastle (working away from home Monday-Friday), the P38 is a 2.5 DT, manual gearbox and 214500 on the clock, the symptoms are that I have to use the heat the glow plug three times in the morning before starting, it then it fires up and runs just fine, however after...

Hi, I need to change some of the spill off pipes, but looking at the last pipe coming from No 6 Cylinder it has been 'sealed off' with a screw (therefore blocking the return) where should this pipe go to so that I can re-instate the full fuel cycle as designed, I have checked with rave and it...

So changed the damper and noise is away, was replaced with a used part so if it happens again I will buy a new one.

Ok, took the water pump out and it was fine, however I took the crankshaft Aircon pulley off and found that the vibration damper rubber has completely separated from the pulley, will need to get another one and fit it before I find out if that was the problem (hope so), all the other pulley's...

Thanks, I did think about that, but there is no warning light on (or even flickering)
