Do you lose much coolant while doing the run on pump. Does it need to be bled afterwards?

I'm guessing mine hasn't worked for a while, run on pump and heater unit probably need looking at.

No the booster heater does not work. The heater does work. The engine temp rarely reaches 90 when the heater is on.

Do they have an effect on the engine temperature? Mine doesn't have one and runs fairly cool, especially with the heater on full.

Turned it off and back on. Then it runs fine.

It's now got worse. I drove home from work and it's juddering heavily when pulling

I've not got a cable and haven't had it plugged in. Appears to be worse when cold. Once hot it's not there.

I've got a very slight hesitation developing. It doesn't do it constantly, I've only noticed it while cruising and not while pulling. I had a Zaire with a similar issue and that turned out to be the MAF sensor,would this be a possible cause?

I wish I had read this sooner.lol I've taken it to my local garage who is going to fit for

It appears it's only leaking when the hand brake it on?

So if it's a pipe or caliper the brakes will need bleeding. Is a bleed kit essential?

It would be a case of refurbished rather than repaired. All moving parts replied.

?eplace or repair calipers?

It had run out. Tried topping it up but the brakes have failed. Needs new calipers I believe Not had chance to look properly

O/s rear brake leaking from somewhere. Can I just top up fluid before getting it repaired tomorrow or will it need bleeding?

I've now rear other threads on Aux Heaters and from what I can make out that there isn't much heat going spare on the TDi and therefore you have the booster heater. It's not been below 10 degrees around here yet so I'm not entirely sure if mine works. I've not heard the noise or seen any additional smoke so far? Probably faulty, I've only owned the car since early summer.

Not all Galaxy's have Aux Heaters right?? I've got a rear heater but that's it? I think lol

Thanks for the reply Nothing to worry about too much then? I'll just clean it up and carry on then lol

A guy I work with just bought an Alhambra and the previous owner has fitted Galaxy wheels to it which are rubbing on the brake caliper on both front wheels when cornering.

The EGG valve has oil all over it, mainly underneath. Also the pipe coming from the top of the cam cover on the left which I think may be a breather pipe? Hopefully the pictures are attached Any idea why or how to fix it please?

I may need to invest in an impact gun as I get more adventurous with the car repairs.

Was it a chain company that MOT'D the car?? I had mine done recently at Halford as yours did mine had about 15 advisories
