    Confirm my DCi high pressure fuel pump fears

    Yeah I know mate. If we chuck a new pump on as well it will stand us nearly £1100 and I'm not sure if I could sell it for that.

    Confirm my DCi high pressure fuel pump fears

    I haven't been able to take the pump apart but this is the second pump and the car behaves in exactly the same way.

    Confirm my DCi high pressure fuel pump fears

    @RenMatt @AlexW Sean6545 @HMS Derv Destroyer @Dan@SJM @MicKPM Sorry to tag you all in this! Won't be able to work on the van for 3 months come the weekend so am keen to get it sorted :) Before I buy brand spanking new injectors I just want to confirm they are completely dead. I've done a leak...

    Couzens's Petrol Blue 182.

    Check the bolt spacing! It's got a cup spoiler and springs, that's highly suspect of cup packs :) Looks lovely. I really like the wheels that colour.

    Are there different shades of RB

    There are shades of every colour which is why a body shop has a cabinet full of paint shades. I remember for my lupo there were 7 of the yellow. From the factory they are likely to be so similar though that any changes will be due to varying protection and care over the years.

    clio 172 misfire at 1200-1500rpm when cold

    It could also be an injector on the way out. If it get worse it's obviously not the map and you should see a flashing engine light in the bottom right of the dash.

    UCH replacement / window problem

    You will need to replace the lot. Not locks. ECU, uch, key fob and decoder ring. If you have rain sensor/auto lights your uch needs to be n3

    Earn £250 for taking this shed away!!

    Whiring noise on over-run

    Forgot to mention. Depending on how you get the box out. If you're dropping the subframe get atleast the 2 front captive nuts replace, £7 or so. The cages will be ruined. That way you should just need the box oil. You really couldn't be much further away from me, otherwise I'd offer to help...

    Brands Hatch in a Polo

    I haven't read the posts since last time but he's be arrested for false imprisonment or something http://www.sevenoakschronicle.co.uk/Revealed-Tonbridge-man-named-Brands-Hatch/story-21242850-detail/story.html#tIuO17Qe4mqpVmD0.01 http://www.kent.police.uk/news/latest_news/140616_brands_hatch.html

    Confirm my DCi high pressure fuel pump fears

    It struggles whether hot or cold. I've replace the pump now with one from a reputable breakers. Pressure on this pump is higher but still is struggling to get to the levels needed to start. When it does start it runs lumpier than my clio. Noticed there was quite a bit of air coming back in the...

    Whiring noise on over-run

    Yeah you could do that, just need to make sure you get the right suffix JC5 129/130 etc. Mine was done by agency and the turn around was less than a week. If you can find one at a decent price then I'd send it off. Couple of years back now but the receipt was for £285 with bearings syncros and...

    Diffs do make a noise when it's running on stands. You just can't normally hear it above anything else. in car video will be best :)

    Whiring noise on over-run

    Release bearing makes an entirely different noise to the one described. You wouldn't be able to hear one when driving as there isn't load on it apart from gear changes. If you jack the front up you'll probably hear all sorts of noises like the diff. Clio boxes do make a slight whuring; even...

    Whiring noise on over-run

    Just fit a normal 172 driveshaft, they aren't hard to come by. this sounds like a gearbox all over though. Everything you've said sounds like what happened to my lupo. One day I put it in reverse and it made the most horrible noises, suddenly was 20 times louder than it had been. Rebuild sorted.

    Here you go chaps. https://www.facebook.com/zac.copson?fref=hovercard Shame, brands is a great place to get easy access to the pits and this is only going to make it far more difficult in the future.

    Clio II Lock problem

    a piece of the plastic mech might have snapped. if you take the door card off you'll see how it works. Can easily be dismantled.

    There aren't many left that are that original so I'd give it a complete refresh and no more :)

    Cruise control on a RS 172 or a dCi (DIY)

    Dci or petrol? The dash definitely needs programming to work. Cruise doesn't go through uch so that's fine. My girlfriends ph3 dci needed the dash programming but the cruise worked before that. I can send you my clip if you leave me a deposit

    Cruise control on a RS 172 or a dCi (DIY)

    Have you wired in the ECU side of the wires. It should work if you have but just not show on the display

    Cruise control on a RS 172 or a dCi (DIY)

    @roYa it is likely the cruise control function needs activating in the ECU using clip. If the car can't get a decent speed reading from the ABS it also won't work. Mine used to do this a little, new ABS rings made the problem go away.

    Graham's OCD ph2 DCi sport rep

    Yep but clearly needs to be redone. I was disappointed to say the least! Looks better now the car is dirty ;) Sun visors were a dos to wire up. In the green plug which connects the roof loom to the dash loom there are feeds for the electric sunroof (go via UCH) which you can take out and put...

    Fuel filler flap

    if you want just the flap off instead of the mechanism you can remove it from the outside. Open the flap then then pull it outwards from the far, use a screwdriver to pop the clip off the mounting. You'll see what I mean when you pull it out.
