definitely alternator, as the charge n sediment light both reference from them alternator output, seen this lots of times when the alternator dies, unfortunately usualyy means replacement as rebuild is a) next to impossible and b) normally just as expensive as a new unit.

the rack seal can be changed in situ, its a bit fiddly but can be done, only if your changing the rack do the wheels normally come off? that said i have seen them changed with the wheels on, by undoing the track rod ends.but they are a pain to get the rack out!! without the engine running there is v...

is that the lever thingy found under the bonnet?

Note to anyone carrying or intendind to carry out this job, when removing the seal BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL not to damage the wall of the seal seat when u push the screw driver in to lever the old seal out, or you will only get a partial seal and be doing this job again in the near future!! stupid as it...

check around exhaust manifold, a snapped stud makes a sort of warble/mouse stuck under the seat noise? check that the forward most lower stud is intact or for black 'sooting' around manifold at front end.

fuse is under the bonnet, think its a 15amp, located at rear of the box, and is marked tail, beware if it is that fuse blown,it also means you have no rear lights!! the garage has probably incorrectly wired the fog light switch the first time they fitted it.

err states noise is from the rear, no cv's?! have you checked diff levels,as could be slack in the rear diff thats taken up under power, its a full on mission to rip it all out to inspect, but lots of places rebuild them if thats the case.

door trigger for lights doesn't run through door loom, the pin is located to the rear of the door space on the vehicle, held in with a philips screw, undo, pull it out n clean the end of the contacts to resolve. get hold of some extra flexible wire (it has lots on thin cores) and cut out the broken ...

make sure you get right length replacement plugs! or you may need to do some 'persuading' lol

thats glow plug symptoms, if your handy with tools change set of plugs in about 30mins, if not take your time its not an indepth procedure but does require removal of a few parts to gain access p.s. make sure you have a magnetic pick up handy cos your bound to drop at least 1 of the 7mm glow plug nu...

we've fitted lots of customer supplied rads from fleabay and in general never have a problem, in fact some of the pattern units have been of all metal construction and imo superior to the factory units, as mentioned make sure you dont have the bleed/breather on the cap on the rad and your onto a win...

agree with all, outer cv is on its way and the garage are trying it on, buy a cv from fleabay about £30 and ask them to fit it, 1 hours labour tops

1.no it doesnt,in general a head is stripped as much as poss just to make task of getting it out as easy as poss,can only say i've always stripped manifold off still attatched to the turbo. 2.Yes 3.not sure about pressure testing, pulled set of injectors earlier this week, use a deep socket and shou...
