Probably been steam cleaned is always a favourite for water in the plug wells.

You'll have to prise the bottom of the column apart where it clamps on to the rack with a big screwdriver etc, they can be quite difficult to seperate.

Yeh does happen.

Factory fit nav used a gps antenna in the roof aerial base.

1. Yes 2. Not really, post cat lambda cable is clipped to it thats about it off the top of my head. 3. ish. 4 main fixing points and 2 brace brackets at the back to remove.

Very very easy. The injector clips are the hardest part and they aren't hard!

2.0 TDi 140. They have an issue with the plastic oil pump chain guide/tensioner plenty of cases if you google. The repair kits replaces all the pump drive gear but sometimes you can't get the old sprocket off the crank so the engine is ends up useless anyway. 57 and last december places it just...

I have no recolection of what you are talking about :o. Still it wouldn't have been loose if the kit was any good in the first place hence crappy kit caused the leak ;).

Oh and I blame the low figure on a boost leak from ala crappy ktec hardpipe kit ;). edit: Forgot to add no one buy a ktec hard pipe kit, it doesnt fit and will rub on everything and crack welds. Best £300 I ever got refunded.

Crappy picture but I am now famous :D

A brand new set is £100 or so for both so not the complete end of the world. Might be worth checking the bearings over too make sure theres no play in them or anything. Otherwise fingers crossed the brackets are weaker than the mounting points :(.

Good point, does it clear up under wot?

Coilpack

I stand by my statement that kerbs are the devil in concrete form.

Have you ever seen the hydraulic circuit for even an old box? They're not a simple device and I wouldn't be deleving into the internals without previous knowledge and experience. Barring the obvious fluid checks etc and make sure its selecting properly there isn't a lot you can do. 1998 will be...

It'll reset after several (i can't remember exactly) starts and driving of the sensor reading what it should. Will still be a stored fault but the light will go off.

Not terribly difficult, hardest part is picking a point to drain the system. Dropping the return from the rack will get most of the old stuff out, then refill with fresh fluid and bleed.

Won't hurt to change if you wanted to do it. Otherwise it'll survive ok without.

Sounds ignition related, check plugs leads coil pack as said.

If it doesn't go away after say a week of driving it replace the post cat lambda. It may simply be a case of a stored fault.

Autoboxs are a box of black magic, need to go to an auto specialist would be my advice.

Jesus wept

Does the temperature gauge work now? The fan will constantly run when the CTS isn't working, hence the gauge doing the same.

Close back up with it on the ground then i'd hope. Ph2 2 piece affair shaft is better imo.

My old one: Wasn't fast by any means but was far from gutless and pretty decent when I was 17/18 tbh.

Take it out and do it properly, fix it right fix it once. I assume you've disconnected the drain pipe?

I swear to god i've got the only tidy/looked after ph1 left :(. Proper chavmobiles these days.

Glad I wasn't the only one :o. Still on 1.2 shafts?

Had something similar before, just get the seats, carpet, and foam out of the front and give it the big style hose treatment. You should hopefully be able to see where its coming in. Last one was a block skuttle drain and it ran in through the heater and made a swimming pool under the seats but...

Nope, as below. I've had mine commented upon in the past and its nowhere near as loud as a yozza, just find a non anal mot tester and you'll be fine.
