ive got a mk 2 sharan 115 tdi 6 speed and when driving at 50mph or above it sounds as the drivers wheel is droning just like a wheel bearing noise , also when going round sharp right hand bends i get a slight knocking noise and i can feel it in the steering somthing dosnt feel right at all , ive jacked it up and checked for play in the driveshaft and the wheel on both sides of the car and they all feel fine , what do you think?? does the wheel wobble if the bearing is kapput or not??

hi i have a vw sharan mk2 and frankley im dissapointed with the ice set up it has a beta tape deck and a 6 disc front loader , basiclly the sound is crap so ive taken it out and fitted my mp3 sony headunit , crancked the volume up and that sounds crap aswell not like in my mk 1 alhambra. ive unplugged the headunit speaker wires and noticed there is only 4 wires going to the vws iso fitting , so i have all 4 speakers from the front outputs if that makes sence , also it resets everytime i turn the ignition off , i didnt need an iso lead as the sharans loom just plugged straght into my sony set up , what can i do to get 4 speaker working on the head unit properly , has anyone else suffered with this , thanks

Alhambra Stuck In 3rd , Gear Cables Issue
jamesey replied to jamesey's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
i can see the cable end hanging off its the top one on the box under the battery tray , if i pop it back on whats the best to use to keep it on has anyone had any success with a tie wrap , im going to cornwall twice this year and would dred it to go down therer -
ive got a 1997 sat and today the miss broke down in it i rang my mate and he said check the linkage , i took the battery out and started taking the tray out i took the 4 bolts out and wham the engine nearly fell out , anyway long story short ,one of the linkage cables has come off , is this an easy fix or not to change a cable or is it just a case of putting it back , i cant really see down to the cable area without removing everything , bloody car im sick of car repairs this week :P

ive noticed over a few monthe when i start the 1997 alhambra ahu tdi , i cant turn the steering wheel it seems to lock , it then gets over that and is normal , the other day i was doing the front pads and i noticed the pas belt on the side of the engine had nearly snapped and was only held on by the core of the belt , now yesterday i was driving in the rain and came to an island i pulled onto it and tried to turn round it and the steering wheel locked up , the belt is tentioned up ok could it be a worn pulley or could it be somthing seizing up , i really need to sort this as i carry my kids in this car :huh:

Drivers Door Lock Acting Funny
jamesey replied to jamesey's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
no ive checked all that , ive sat inside the car and the drivers lock mech makes a noise when remotly locking but doesnt actually lock , there must be a alarm sensor on this door as when the lock locks itself it triggers the alarm to activate , a new lock me thinks -

Drivers Door Lock Acting Funny
jamesey replied to jamesey's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
just to add now to confusion ive gone to fill up and the diesel flap is locked , ive had to lock and unlock the alhambra several times to get it to open -
hi ive come to press to unlock my alhambra 1997 mk1 on the key fob and all 3 doors opened except the drivers door but when i pull and pull at the door handle it works its way open , also when i used to lock it remotly it used to flash the led on the door , but now it doesnt and just the 3 doors lock not the drivers door. even when i lock it with the key i can pull the handle vigourusly and it eventually opens , it cant be the wires on the door cause there new ive just had new door wiring , i think its somthing with the lock and alarm mech , is there a sensor somwhere and yes the alarm still works when its locked and i pull the drivers door open , im stumped :ph34r:
