Re: Electric window motor replacement
Ah my error, I was thinking of the door lock motors, your referring to the actual window motors! Those are normally pretty rugged but it could be the brushes or just if not more likely a jammed mechanical mechanism in the scissor jacks that lift the glass up and down see here https://lushprojects ...

Re: Electric window motor replacement
The motor drives can fail and can also be repaired here is a link to some instructions, they units differ between doors but they are all similar http://www.g8dhe.net/bongo%5Fimages/Sli ... placement/

Re: Help: 2.5TD Thermostat orientation
The conical section faces downwards and the flat plate at the top seals off the top inlet pipe coming direct from the engine. Spring up in your description rather than downwards, it also has a notch in the mounting plate for alignemnt.

Re: Hello and 2.0 problem.
Your aware that until the coolant has warmed up the ECU won't allow you to go into highest gear? You need to run it for 10-20 minutes before it will engage the highest gear.

Re: Quick question regarding replacement ABS sensor
Yes that is visually correct, they come in all sorts of prices, the actual sensors are common it seems so you can actually get even cheaper variations normally with a different plug that can be adapted! Be aware however it often requires the fixing bolt for the sensor to be drilled out as they get ...

Re: Low Revs and Fuel Smell
The Lambda sensor can't be ruled out totally, the manual has a lot of ticks covering many different areas of the engine. Its often the problem with intermittent faults/symptoms because as soon as you start altering anything your never totally sure if its actually affected the problem or just the ...

Re: Low Revs and Fuel Smell
Looking at the engine manual a lot of the unstable idle speed faults relate to the Idle Speed Control (ISC) system starting from the ECU on pin 2W which should be between 10volts and battery voltage.
Another possibility would be for the Throttle sensor to have an intermittent problem, either in the ...

Re: TCU
It depends on the age, early machines had separate PCM and TCM in separate boxes, later versions moved to having them on one board in a single box.
I would imagine for an 02 vehicle it would all be in a the same box up under the passenger footwell.

Re: Not starting
From the video it sounds like the starter motor is working but very slowly! Likely a flat battery especially if the engine is very cold, you can see all the other dashboard lights fade out as the battery voltage falls.

Re: Cost for new rear arch repair
It varies across the country its not really practical to advise on costs!
You can get weld in replacement arches from Bongospares they are the only ones that do a correctly stamped/moulded style otherwise there are some arches that can be modified/stretched.

Re: Instrument cluster bulbs
LED's are not a good option as they emit a narrow cone of light rather than a broad width and can actually be more night sight damaging than the all round light from a filament lamp.
