your running on 9 year old suspension fluid. it losses it viscosity and starts to compress and allow the car to sink. seem to remember lds fluid has a 4 or 5 year lifespan. change your fluid 1st

you can just join the wires to the cars wiring harness . the dedicated socket is just to make things easier

to stop it happening again look under the scuttle panel above the gearbox. you see the drain hole. If your luck the rubber pipe will still be there if so reroute it away from the box. if not then make one and reroute it away from the box

you got to give things time to work. also if it has been the egr stuck open then everything will be caked in gunge from the exhaust gases. So a good clean out of all the pipes is needed. live data will show you if the timing is out cam/crank synchronization so no need to strip it down

that sounds like a plan. Maybe a tin of injector cleaner aswell

I dont mean permanently, just to test it is the egr. if its not that then its £200 wasted

you can get to the linkages very easy on these van . If you look at your scuttle panel under the windscreen you will see that the drain plug for it comes out on top off the gear linkage. Cover the linkages with wd40 dont be scared of it and really soaking it then start working the lever in neutral. then more wd the work it till it becomes free then plenty grease to keep it clear

do as paul mentioned and blank it off to see if it cures it. if it does then youve saved £200

You need to get the car plugged in to a diagnostic that supports live data. take the van for a run and bring the misfire on whilst the live data is recording. . now comes the fun bit get a cup of tea and a bacon sandwich and go through the live data frame by frame. one of the settings will drop suddenly and then go back to normal and that will be your fault. experience has show that in most cases its the crankshaft sensor on its way out . but if not then the answer is definitely in live data

The seals in the center of the hdi pump are prone to failing on these

A solus pro should be able to do this. go into special functions and it should be there. Providing your solus software is up to date with the car. for a 2010 car you need to be on 10.2 and above.

depending on the year of the bus. some of the newer models you need to go into climate control menu and link the air con to the heating system so it turns on and off with the temperature settings

got the instructions for this in the garage will get them today for you and post them. have you tried the activation code

if they are rotation tyres check that they have been put on the correct way round

As long as it dosnt leak then it will pass as its on the low pressure side. these clips arnt th best design in the world ad whenever we have a bonnet open we always give them a squirt of wd40

steering rack.

post the numbers please. we got about 8 of these just sitting round the garage

your car is 2012 its now 2017. your lds fluid is 5 years old think id be changing that . ebay sell it £35 for 5 litres delivered

cheers. fuse box under the bonnet. they are 2 x 15 amp fuses for the headlights.. you'd be better off just unplugging the headlighf or the motor unit. ive come across this b4 and im sure it was either the adjustment switch or the motor itself

get rid ofthe 1.6 as there not a good engine and turbo failure is very comon

pull the plastic shroud of the bottom of the handbrake lever. put your fingers under the switch and push up

wow that seems a lot. easiest way (although not the correct way ) remove bottom radiator hose when the engine is cold. once the water stops then replace and refill with the right amount of anti freeze and water. bleed nipples ( if needed) are on the thermostate and the heater pipe to the matrix on the rear right of the engine. run engine with expansion tank cap off untill engine gets to normal temp oor the expansion bottle level goes down . top up level as needed ( you should only need to top up once)

start with the front end on ramp. remove the dog leg of the ride hieght sensor then start the engine. now manually move the ride hieght sensor and see if the car follows then try the rear sensor. also check the switch inbetween the seats as coffee and drinks get spilt onto them and can create a short and put the suspension into a preferment setting.

hello sifaan. was just thinking about you the other day. You seem to pop up every 6 months or so. hope things are going well for you. anyway down to business its the stalk thats broke. dont try fixing it m8 as its a pain in the arse. just replace the comms unit

either the local breakers or take the hose off and go to a local hydraulic hose firm
