Was me that asked for the pics, thank you for taking the time to add them on. I think I shall be booking in to have the same thing done on my galaxy, 2 quick questions though. 1) Could someone still sit in the seat at the very back or would the new belt positioning get in the way? 2) Did they have to fit a new belt socket on the other side of the seat, as my lap belt obviously has only one buckle and one socket Thank you again for your time James

Quick Question
SPIKEYJIMBO replied to SPIKEYJIMBO's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Blimey how hard was it to get back on here. Bigjeeze yes the temp guage gets up to mid point but takes ages and as soon as the heater blower is turned on it slowly drops down again Greggers the run on pump is brand new only about 2k miles of use and still hums away I changed the plug over wasn't very hard re fitted unit and cleared the codes I'm now getting 01409 flame out and 01414 again. I can clear the codes and the little exhaust blows air buy gives up and logs codes again Any ideas -
Quick Question
SPIKEYJIMBO replied to SPIKEYJIMBO's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Cheers guys, No good at the mechanics part so will have to wait for a dry day and hope my brother in law will take a look for me, I really do hope that the new plug fixes it so I can be warm on the way to work and the kids wont need a blanket in the back, Will keep you posted Thanks -
Eve all, Its been a while since I was last on here so my apolagies. Its that time of year again when the aux heater questions appear, mine has never worked but after some advice from here traced it to being blocked off at the plug, scanned with vag com cleared the codes 01414 combustion blower problem, however this kept returning so lost heart in it and froze every day last winter. Took the vag com out to the car yesterday cleared the 01414 codes and hit the heater unit with a rubber mallet, re scanned today and now im getting the flame out code so im guessing the heater will need to be dropped and the plug changed ( I have the plug) When the car is started it starts with the whooshing and then some sort of tapping, the exhaust blows air out of the end for a min or so and there is no smoke. does this mean its working? When i shut the car down you can still hear it working before i guess shutting down Does it sound like im getting some where with this or just getting my hopes up Many thanks James

What Could It Be

Mirez, Cheers for confirming that, will get it ordered in the next few days, got to try and find the time now to fit all the parts. Where did you manage to pull that info from or is it secret:lol: -
What Could It Be

Chris, I have relay 109 and vac tube in both 3mm and 5mm diameter (does that sound right) Whilst down at VW I got the guy to look up that filter in the pic you sent me, he looked on etka and came up with part number 702 129 965 at a price of -
What Could It Be
SPIKEYJIMBO replied to SPIKEYJIMBO's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Chris, Cheers for the reply, it just looks dirty and want to slowly eliminate things before I get to the more expensive items.. Do you think its likely that the dealers or a motor factors would sell these seperately? Going to buy the vac hose later I think its 3mm and 5mm on the galaxy replace relay 109 & find out how much the intercooler hose is. After that im heading down the line of replacement Maf Seeing as the turbo was cleaned a new n75 valve and egr valve were fitted I dont think its anything major, its just annoying me with the stuttering Have scanned again with vag- com and showing as no faults Many thanks for your help -

Ahhhh, So it is, Thanks Chris.. I couldnt make any sence of the pic and relate it to the car.. My filter looks quite dirty Im guessing it can be replaced, What affect could this dirty filter have on the car? -
Hello, No joy as yet, Going to get the hoses looked at for splits and wear, and look into relay 109. I think its going to be a process of elimination that may take some time and probably cost. Want to get it done before driving the 5 hours into cornwall mid May .. A better description rather than hesitant could be a stutter - No issues regards gaining speed etc just after changing up or down a gear and the accelerating it just holds off for a second and then picks up fine

Looking around the engine bay of my Galaxy tdi AUY and in front of the brake fluid reservior there is a filter of some sort, have tried to upload the photo but to no success, does anyone know what this filter is for.. Description - cylindrical shaped clear plastic, housing a yellow filter indide, its not very big(Would easily fit inside your palm) Many thanks

Pipes And Hoses
SPIKEYJIMBO replied to SPIKEYJIMBO's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Unfortunately not 3 out of 3 :) I dont remember coming accross a picture of that and I honestly couldnt advise you on your problem as my technical knowledge isnt great, However there are some really clued up people on this forum that are willing to help and share knowledge. im sure some one will advise you soon. Glad to have helped and good luck. -
Chris, when you say take the fuel filter inlet pipe off looking at the pic you posted on this thread is it the dark shiny hose that goes into the right hand side of the filter or the duller black hose with the blue writing on going into the left hand side.. I had the squelching sound come back for a bit but now its gone again
