Vag Com Help Please....very Poorly Gal
M0GWR replied to M0GWR's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
UPDATE Had the pump out the tank this morning. It was a little dirty but not bad for a 10 year old car. Cleaned it all and checked it is working. Put it all back together and decided to check the timing.......well that was until i found that my locking wheel nut socket is missing......do not think body shop had put it back in the car last month :o -

Removing Injector Loom From Pd Injectors - How?
M0GWR replied to jonstone's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
I have just done my this afternoon. I used a pair of long nose pliers to pull the plugs off the injectors . Then if you look on the bar with the wires running through there are clips for the plugs to sit in , the new one will already be clipped in if you look. Then draw the whole thing out but you will need to press the steel clips in with a screw driver as they go through the hols in the head. -
Vag Com Help Please....very Poorly Gal
M0GWR replied to M0GWR's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Bit of an update... I have just changed the loom and it has not helped. When you first start up it will idle nice and smooth but after a short while it starts with the rough almost miss firing sound. This did just start all of a sudden, came out one morning for work and it just didn't seem to want to start. I had to wind it over for quite a while and then it picked up and ran fine, that was until it sat for most of the day to come home. Same again next morning etc. Then all of a sudden it was back to starting first flick of the key but with the rough idle. Now thinking back the only things i have done is swooped from Morrison's fuel to Total and at the same time put some forte (sp) injector cleaner in. I look as best i could at the cam shaft and it looked and felt ok, and i also put a dmm on the injectors and they all read about the same 0.5/6 ohm iirc. Is there anything in vag com that will show if the fuel pressure is ok? Thank you John -

That does indeed sound about the right place. I will get it checked after the running problem is sorted. Thanks again Alan for your help. -

Hi Alan Thank for taking the time to reply again. I have got it working now....it was indeed a driver issue. I can now see in the mease blocks. Unfortunately i do not really understand them enough to see where the idle problem is coming from. There is no fault codes stored ether. I also can not seem to upload the log file, even when zipped up. Thank You John -

Hi Alan Thank you for your reply. I do not seem to be able to attach vag com logs but here is a screen grab. The car is really frustrating me now. VAGCOM SCREEN GRAB.bmp -
Ok My car has been doing some strange things of late poor starting.....having to turn over for ages then will pick up and go.....this sort of seems to have gone away. Now i have Rough idle seems down on power Air con also stopped blowing cold but pump is spinning and there is a whooshing noise from passenger foot well. car still returns decent mpg though. Anyway got my vag com working today and have just done a scan. No fault codes. So i look in the meas block park and there is lots of n/a where i am sure there used to be figures. I have attached a log file and hope some one can point me in the right direction. Really concerned now as i have moved work place and have to travel 30 miles a day. The strange thing is in the meas blocks part of vagcom is the missing info. Most things say N/A. The block that shows the injectors is only showing injector number 1 the other 3 say N/A. I really do not have a clue what is going on with it. I have looked around here but not found any similar faults.

Roof Mounted Dvd Player Installation
M0GWR replied to frogeye's topic in I.C.E (In Car Entertainment) Discussion
I would not touch that 15 inch version, i got one a few months ago and it was terrible, dark picture and real bad build quality......the dam thing also went up in smoke. I sent it back after a few emails and got the smaller one they do and that is spot on and only -
Bottoming Out / Catching Rear Arch
M0GWR replied to M0GWR's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
I don't like the sound of stranded springs LOL car looks like it is on stilts :lol: I just wondered if any one else had the same issue as me..........guess there is all ways the old grinder on the arch tick :lol: -
Hi people, well i fitted the gmax springs a few weeks ago and they seemed to have settled in now......but i seem to get the back out bottoming out and the arch's and tires are hitting, not all the time but when i have people sat in the back, the rear shocks are the original ford ones, i believe they are gas but i am not 100%. Any one else have the same issue? what have you done to cure it? I guess new rear shocks could help but again which ones to get? I am off to the south of France this week and i am a little concerned. Wheels are 18inch with 235/40/18. Just a couple of pic's of how the gal sits....see what you think http://homepage.ntlworld.com/jp.radioroom/pictures/102_0125%20(Large).JPG http://homepage.ntlworld.com/jp.radioroom/pictures/102_0126%20(Large).JPG http://homepage.ntlworld.com/jp.radioroom/pictures/102_0127%20(Large).JPG

Hi Can anyone tell me which gear box oil i need for a 1.9tdi, i know it is not normal ep 80/90 stuff but trying to find what it is and where to get it from is being a pain. Thanks John

When i got my Galaxy the left to right was very stiff to the point you could go into 1st insted of 3 rd when changing gear. I removed the battery tray so i could see wgat was going off and the gear linkage was fine, on the gear box linkage there is a white (on mine) bush which seem to be where the stiffness was coming from, i took the clip of the end and when i tried to pull the bar out it was very tight, anyway got it out and then with a short (snapped in half)10mm drill bit i opened the bush back up, then a little bit of grease on the pin, put it back together and it is now fine......sorry if this is a ramble but i didnt take pic's but hope it points you in the right direction.

yes thats the way to wire it up

Cheep relay here and it shows a pic on top of the connections, the trigger is what ever feed you use, ignition, dipped head lights etc http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/5-Pin-automotive-typ...68#ht_678wt_939

Hi Hope this helps, you will need a normal 4 pin relay for this, i would prob use a 20amp. I have done a very bad paint image to show you how to connect the relay. You do need 2 lives to the relay but i would have the trigger live from the ignition so you do not forget and leave the lights on.
