Intermittent Air Con
gazza007 replied to Galaxy Quest's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
As a rule, all systems will cycle on/off depending on the conditions fed by the various sensors. Could be a faulty sensor or a lack of R134a When did you last have the system drained/re-filled? I would suggest to keep costs in the first instance would be a DIY pressure test/refil kit. Halfords do the or this place is ok. Car AC supplies -
Not rained for weeks, decided to cycle to give cold weld on wiper mounting an extra day. Guess what its now raining rain

Yes MO4, I agree you use moneysupermarket & Confused, they initially come up with good prices but when you select them they go sky high. Makes me laugh with Morethan as happy chap has a Gal. I think Insurance should be more like 'pay as you go' as today I have cycled to work!!

I have always had that thought in the past but 1 claim( hit gate post) in last five years makes me think of giving it a try. It's such a rip off.

Galaxy Windscreen Wipers Not Working
gazza007 replied to a topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Mine have started to play up too. Gave the screen a wash & they got stuck half way then waited for about 30 secs. Put them on wipe & they were very juddery & got stuck again before returning to rest. Could mine be the control unit???? -
Sounds like a 70's curry!!!! :lol:

Handbook says reserve is 8 litres so if it does happen I work off about 8 miles per litre which is about the combined figure.

Lid on centre storage bin has stopped popping up. Will lift up OK. I guess a spring has gone? I noticed 2 torx screws at the back. Any advice Cheers :rolleyes:
