That maybe breakers yard.coms Regard Bob Hill

Hi Paul, Maybe the scrapyard could be the place for you. Have a try on Scrapyard.com I think thats what its called. The search goes out to loads of breakers. You can usually find what you are looking for. Regards. Bob Hill

Hi Paul, Try Europarts. They are on line or give them a ring. Regards Bob Hill

Obviously the bearing has gone. I should imagine thats quite cheap to do, then replace the idler/ tensioner. Mind you it must have done a fair bit of work and mileage. Play it by ear, price the bearing and idler up first. Have fun. Bob Hill

Had my waterpump changed by our local back street mechanic, he just changed it, no question about engine out job. mine was similar to yours except mine over heated. One of the common faults is the waterpump impeller blades snap off. This can cause major problems. Well worth changing for what it is. Hope this helps. Regards. Bob Hill

This sounds like the usual culprit, a broken wire in the drivers door wiring loom. The door loom where it goes from the door to the vehicle body. Have fun Bob Hill

I will try what you suggest and thanks for your reply. Regards Bob Hill

Its a major operation just to get the door panel off. Bob

Has nobody got the answer to this problem. I have the Haynes book but absolutely no mention in it regarding this question it only deals with the electric version. Please somebody help. Regards Bob Hill

I have a mk2 galaxy some kind person knocked my drivers side door mirror off. I managed to acquire one from the second hand scrapyard. Its a pain getting it off, it is attached by 3 cables because its a manual adjust but I omitted to note which way the cables went on. The nipples are silver, copper and brass does any body know the order in which they go. Mine is on a 52 plate 1.9 diesel. Any help would be much appreciated

Is there a repair kit for door mirrors? I don't mean the glass I mean the spring mechanism. The cost of renewal is to say the least is expensive.

Is there any easy ways of rectifying the problem, or the best way to tackle it. Regards Bob Hill

I have a 52 plate mk2 1.9 diesel, the door controls, on the drivers side sometimes stop working. If I stop and lock the car they sometimes start working. If I disconnect the battery for a short time they work for a couple of days, then start doing the same thing again. Has anyone else had this problem or is it like I suspect the main brain. Anyone got any ideas that may help, it would be much appreciated. regards Bob Hill

Hi Dave Thanks for that, it doesn't sound as bad as I thought. Will have a go at it later today. Many thanks Bob hill

The heater control has become faulty. On turning the control it ceases to operate, for a few weeks to control the fan speed I have had to depress the the control in so obviously the unit is faulty. Qustion is are there any quick fixes and secondly if not how do I attack its removal and replacement. Mk2 1.9 diesel on 52 plate manual. Any help would be much appreciated. Regards Bob Hill

My problem is its not the wattage, its the type of fitting, this is not straight forward there are many different types and this is an oddball. Any other ideas. Very kind of you to reply but you bet your life this is a ford only bulb. Regards Bob Hill

I have a mk2 52 plate.1.9 diesel Does anybody know the bulb type in the dashboard clock. Mine has never worked since I got the vehicle, now I know why, its missing. The trouble is there are hundreds of different types. Any help would be appreciated. Bob Hill

It went for its MOT yesterday among its faults was osf sidelight bulb blown. This might sound like a daft question but there aint no room there, do you have to take the headlight unit out to replace a bulb, if so how? Whoever designed this machine must have had good laugh about the troubles us punters will have to face. Any help would be much appreciated. Kind regards Bob Hill Mk 2 Galaxy 2002 1.9 TDI

My nsf mainbeam doesn't work. Ihave obviously changed the bulb but to no avail. Does anybody know tne common causes for this. All other lights working perfectly Kind regards Bob Hill

This happened to me once before. It finished to be the back section of carpet had got trapped in the runners and the loud crack was the seat height locating in its possition. Regards Bob Hill

Hi Paul Battery's are measured in amp hours, what it means is 1amp load will run for 1hour Therefore in a 100amp hour battery that same 1 amp would run the battery flat in 100 hours Regards Bob Hill

Don't ever suggest a fault diagnosis, just the symptoms. Regards Bob Hill

Lets look at the history surrounding this problem. This didn't surface until you had work done, this included fan belt and tensioner. After fitting the problem appears, this should surely tell us something. Regards Bob Hill
