Head Gasket Leak
Trislander replied to Trislander's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
No bubbling from water coolant I do get a plume of white/silver smoke on start up which does become a clear smoke after a short run but it's a mixture if oil leaking and more oil consumption -
Hi It would appear I've got oil seeping from the head gasket on my 2000 mark 2 Any idea on costs for replacing?
-
Anyone know where I can get a engine mount and bolts for mark 2 around northwest today? The mount that's under battery tray on gearbox

Getting a mixture of grey (ish) and black (ish) smoke whilst building up speed (ok on tickerover) Been told it could be a number of things just want your thoughts please. Going to clean EGR valve first but if that doesn't cure it what do you guys think should be the next step

White/clear Smoke

Just been told to purchase a bottle of Forte seems to best anyone agree? -
Only notice it at night when a car with headlights on is directly behind me. Slight smoke on engine start but nothing too bad. Am I looking just looking at a bottle of something to put in the fuel to clear this up? It's nothing drastic like I say

Possible Gear Box Fault
Trislander replied to Trislander's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Just been told could be driveshaft Mechanic had it off yesterday and put back on wondering if he's disturbed something and its causing it to shake while driving? Seems odd that its only happened since then rather than gearbox -
Possible Gear Box Fault

One thing to add (probably unrelated) if engine at idle in neutral ticks over fine if revved to about 1100rpm slight vibration and wobbly feeling over that seems to rev fine no "wobbling" -
Ok I've started new thread see what u guys think Now have a "shaky" drive Feels like a wobbling car while driving there is a slight "wearing" noise (usually if wheel bearing is gone but its not that) it is clunky during gear selection but its always been like that since I've had it (2 years) mechanic thinks gearbox problem Would it be complete change of specific fault which could be repaired cheaper? Any thoughts ?

3Rd And 4Th Gear Drive Sluggish

Hmmmmm just thinking my mechanic moved the fuel filter earlier today to get to the speed sensor could moving it have maybe caused this issue as it wasn't an issue before it went on the ramp -

Ok an update.... After a couple of hours driving a 10 blast down the motorway it seemed to return to normal for about 90 min happy day I think I then switch engine off to get diesel start up again and the problem returns DAMN!!! Take it on motorway again but this time still same problem. I keep plodding away for about 30 minutes and it gets gradually worse and almost feels like I'm driving on wobbly wheels . I unplug maf and drive for a bit and runs about the same plug it back in and still no joy Now I will try buy new maf tomorrow BUT something is telling me its not that(I'm no mechanic) but with the wobbling feeling I'm thinking maybe more to do with engine or gearbox????? It's ok rolling in neutral I'm very confused and its battering my head and wallet -
Apparently my mechanic has got a number for somebody that can sort this issue out for
