Re: V6 breakdown symptoms

The numbers on that link are correct.
The cap will only fit one way.

The fuel filter is under the van, at the front of the fuel tank. It's a black canister on the chassis. Its held on with a bolt through the bracket & 2x 10ml nuts. When you disconnect the pipe, fuel might spray out.

Re: V6 breakdown symptoms

Theres no common problem why a V6 suddenly cuts out, they do it so rarely.
As it happened after you'd run low on fuel, you could check the fuel filter.
Dirt can block the filter enough to cause fuel starvation.
Especially if it hasn't been replaced recently.

Re: Rear washer pipe

We've attached an airline ho the pipe under the bonnet and blasted air through before. But if yours won't blast then maybe its kinked somewhere?
Sometimes a motor will make a noise, but still not pump, because the impeller has failed and isnt spinning.

Re: Cabin fabric

Once you get access to it, just clean any loose bits off the back of the fabric, then spray adhesive and smooth the fabric back into place. Lots of helpful videos on YouTube, like this one: https://youtube.com/shorts/OhdGGecX6W4? ... kOQZE58d8V

Re: misfire, not idling right

Common cause is a faulty mass airflow MAF. There are 2 types so you need to match the number sticker on yours.

Re: Glow plug light flashing

Try what Geoff said. 🙂
That broken pipe is unlikely to cause the flashing light.
Common causes of the flashing light: Fuse number 1 (in the fuse box by the drivers knee) can fail.
If the auxiliary fan (scavenger fan) is running all the time, then the temperature sensor by the handbrake is ...

Re: V6 alternator

Theres a number on a sticker, on your alternator. You might have to remove the alternator to see it. Then you can match an alternator.
Also in the UK you can get alternators refurbished. I dont know if US has this service.
