Spring Assistors 03 Galaxy Tdi
srafferty replied to georgiaalana's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Make sure all moveable iteme such as gas canister etc are situated behind the axel, thus lifting the weight off tow hitch. You can expect a certain amount of wheel scrub with the extra load (drag) but if the van is balanced properly (you should be able to raise it slightly by lifting the hitch by hand - i.e. off the stabiliser wheel) your car should be within its limits. -

Are you certain the regulator is scuppered? Broken wire in boot between door and A pillar? :(

This is a complete guess. Have you reset the counters yet? It may be because they have gone past their limit. On my Mk2 you toggle between trip values and overall values be pressing the bottom button on the wiper stalk. You reset either by holding this button for a few seconds. Worth a try! :(

Does the knock occur when the vehicle is stationary - i.e. on or near full lock? If so I would be guessing your issue is belt related. I'm sure you got the correct belt and your other replacements were new? If your knocking happens on change of direction of steering I might suspect it is suspension related arbs or track rod ends. :(

AFAIK you can check the timing on VagCom. Do a search. As far as oil is concerned it is ESSENTIAL to use aproper PD oil <_< -
New Turbo .....egr Valve
srafferty replied to muppetofdoom's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
I replaced my EGR with an original recently. Old one had a fractured lug and had to be bypassed. Economy? little different. Smoke? Lot less now. Noise Much quieter now. The part you are looking at is a bypass. I prefer my clean quiet car! <_< -
Cooling System Pipe
srafferty replied to Blimmer's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Any of these guys who knew what they were doing should have found it in no time! Lazy baskets!!!! VW will probably be cheaper. Check out vagcat.com. (You'll need to register(Free)) <_< PS anyone who's seen me give similar advice before, NO, I don't work for vagcat. I've just found it a God send :) -
Get yourself a lead off fleaBay. It's a LOT cheaper!!!!! <_<

If you check VagCat.com (You'll need to register (Free)), you can see if there are different looms for different set-ups. <_< -
Advice Needed Plz Peeps
srafferty replied to gregers's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
The fact that it went OK after a restart would suggest it had beed in limp mode. You will need to check for error codes which will be stored from this occurance. As I'm sure you're aware since you're not new on here :) it could be any one of about 50000000 things. Make life easy for yourself and VagCom. -
With the ignition on(acc position) but the engine off, engage reverse or switch on the sessors. Each individual sensor make a ticking sound (like a watch). If one or more is not, tthen it indicates a faulty sensor. Having said that, I had a faulty sensor which ticked away merrily. It is your first test however. Also you can use VagCom if you have access.

Does The 'plastic Key' Count As A Second?
srafferty replied to frogeye's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
I read somewhere that the plastic key is to gain access only and as a template for new keys. But can you not program with the one transponder key? -
