Check the wiring where it goes from the roof into the tailgate you will probably find some broken wires

Sounds like the fuel filter is faulty or not sealing properly

Sounds like starter motor or a bad connection on solenoid

Thanks for the advice will be doing this over easter weekend along with the cambelt and water pump change that's due

Has anyone changed the strut return pipes on the front of a mk1 c5 had a quick look and looks like just unclip pipe and fit new and check and top up fluid many thanks Mark

My blower resistor is on the passenger side of the heater box and is just clipped into the housing

Thermostat

Check the fuses and relay

Bad earth

Sounds like the clutch burning up

My mk1 c5 hdi had tyre wear when I was using cheap tyres but I am now using michelin and have increased the tyre pressure to the same as the rear 2.5 bar and no more wear problems

Check the fuses

Try an independent locksmiths I'm in Peterborough and have had a quote for my keys at 90 including programing

Might be a faulty switch

It doesn't on mine
