How do i remove it, and its like carb cleaner or something to de gum it?
I read into it a while back but never got round to it.
Thanks for the very swift response.
Hi, was having major start problems, changed glow plugs, for a few days it was fine, and now it takes 2 of 3 turns to actually start, and is then lumpy until warm. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi, getting new glow plugs today,to fit them i need a socket set an extender and the correct end, is this right?
Please could you also rundown the actual fitting process to be sure, ledt my haines at uni.:o
Ive been driving fine for the last 2 weeks, -8 start last week, took 2 cranks but turned fine. Brake cleaner up the intake, bike stuff be ok, I race downhill so have plenty of that, its much less abraisive than car stuff. Probobly injectors, jusging by the light popping on when stationary...
It worked when i jump started it on a hill, when stood still idleing, the glow plug light comes on and it get svery lumpy, and theres a constant electrical whine from fuse box, passenger left side of dash, which when i break whines louder/higher.
Any Ideas?
Thanks alot for the help and swift...
Came to go out this morning, let the glow plug light go out, turned it, i can hear the starter motor turning, but its not starting. Read other posts about spark plugs, its a dci so has glow plugs. Any Ideas?
No im fairly competent, got all the tools, i make and race bikes so got a decent set, gives me something to do tomorrow if i can find a door the right colour. Thanks for all the help
blue, I dont the exact colour name, near burnley but go to uni in chester, so im happy to travel. Worked out via insursance, it will cost around £500 including excess and premium hoik. So probobly better to do it out of pocket. Would a door from the breakers include a window?
Waiting for a quote now, no, they were in the passenger side docket hidden. I'd even put my mount away so purely a pot luck chance. 13 and all if anyone beleives in that stuff.
sorry about the photo, taken last night, the lock is probobly ok, just all the body work around it, keyed pretty deeply. How much do second hands doors retail for about if you know by any chance?
Last night my car was broken into, passenger lock tried and window smashed, sat nav and ipod gone, im 18 so would rather not claim on my insurance as its clean so far. Is it easier to source a new door and change locks etc?
Thanks.

I have a Nokia N82 on contract, about 2 months ago the phone stopped charging properly, discharged very quickly and overall became very very slow. Last week i returned it to the Carphone Warehouse Nokia repair center, and 80 mile round journey, which needed to be done twice, and upon picking up...
I did the swap in January, and would't look back. My DCI feels muh quicker, out of junctions, overtaking without dropping a gear, and just ride the wave of torque in 3rd on country road, I highly recomend the swap, and £20.00 tax from next year.
I think next plan is to lower it, cant afford coil overs so is it just a case of a set of new springs? Will it have any effects on the ride? Wasnt planning on white wheels.
A lad at my work whos a mechanic has told me something like this before, apparently if you start the car in gear, first time it stalls and second it just starts, and then you can change gear without using the clutch somehow, its how mechanics bring home cars than have failed clutches,
