Had to have some welding done on the chassis of my disco around the shock absorber mount and have also replaced the ride height sensor on that side of car, it broke when being taken off. Everything is back together but with the engine running the suspension is too high on one side. The driver’s...

I am in the process of removing the fuel pump but there is no movement in the left hand pipe (the white tagged one). The other 3 pipes are fine and move easily. Is there anything between the boot floor and the top of the fuel tank that the pipe might be caught on?

Hello, can I apologise in advance for the lack of terminology. There is quite a lot of, hopefully only surface rust on the bodywork immediately below the horns and I want to wirebrush and paint it but I need to remove the bolts that I think go into the chassis. Are those bolts easy to...

The bolt on the driver's side of my engine cover just keeps turning. Short of a hack saw does anyone have any suggestions as to how to get the bolt out / cover off? Thanks as always for any suggestions. Neil

I have a 2004 TD5 and yesterday when driving home the engine would not rev above 3000 rpm. It is a manual and with foot flat to the floor 3000 was the max. There was no smoke but there was a high pitched noise that came and went. I could hardly hear it but my son said it was loud and very...

Hi all, does anyone know what might be causing my windscreen wipers to stop mid sweep. The problem only happens on the single sweep option, it doesn't happen when the wipers are fully on. If I press and hold the stalk on the spring the wipers continue until I release the pressure and then...

My air-con is making a noise which sounds like there is a bloody bird cheeping behind the dash and it is driving me nuts. My car has the split climate control and the noise appears to be coming from somewhere near the glove box. It sounds like a a noisy fan and when I turn the air-con off...

If I try and lock my car on the remote control the horn beeps and the car doesn't lock. Also if I try to lock the car by the key the same thing happens. There are no interior lights on and I have treble checked that the doors and the bonnet are closed properly but the problem still exists...

As per the title. I am getting a smell of diesel in the car and suspect the fuel pressure regulator is leaking. This is the 3rd time it will have been replaced, the last time being 18 months ago. I know this is a known fault but assumed that the replacement parts would be better than the...

My disco has climate control and it doesn't seem to blow warm. Today the outside temperature was 9 degrees and the inside set at 20 but the climate control was blowing as cold. Also last week it was warm outside and the inside temperature was set to 18 which cooled the car but the air con...

MOT due in a couple of weeks so hoping to sort anything obvious. The rear wiper works but not the washer. Is this needed for MOT?

The metal hydraulic pipe that runs behind the back of the engine and connects the two clutch cylinders is leaking on my TD5. Our local indy garage says the pipe on its own is £100 including the vat. Does anyone have a cheaper supply? Or suggestions on other pipes to use? Also a part...

Manual 2004 TD5 As the thread title says please. Drove hope yesterday with the clutch at a very low biting point and then a drip, drip of liquid on the drive. Suspect it is one of the clutch cylinders but they were both replaced 18 months ago and also in 2007. My local Indy does the work...

2004 TD5 I was running late this morning and as I pulled away from a roundabout on a dual carriageway I put my foot down. The car accelerated and then as the revs rose it seems to momentarily lose power and then the power picked up again. I would say the "blip" was just below 3000 revs...

Had 4 amigos, took car to the garage where they diagnosed ABS sensor fault. They said the hub has to be replaced at the same time, is this correct? 2004 TD5

As per the title please. Thanks Neil

I know this is very random but if I park outside our local shops then I struggle to lock my car using the remote key fob. It takes 5 or 6 attempts to lock and then similar to unlock the car. If I lock the car using the key then the alarm goes off when I unlock the car and open the door. Other...

2004 TD5 Was sat in car waiting for OH with engine stopped and I was moving the steering wheel from side to side. It seemed very loose so I opened the window to look at the road wheels and I could move the steering wheel 3 inches before there was any resistance and the road wheels did not...

I have a 2004 TD5 with 18 inch alloys on air suspension. The ride has always been choppy with the back end jolting around. Shock absorbers have been replaced but no improvement. Airbags have not been replaced but they look in good condition and don't appear to have any leaks. The car is...
