Well the relay didn't work, any more suggestions before it goes to the garage??

Tell me about it mate, couldn't tell you what mark it is, obviously the cables aren't exposed when the panel is put back on, i got to the relay by taking out the instrument panel and then i could see them down on the right hand side, i'm hoping this is my problem

Here's my layout, went to Volkswagon for a new relay, they don't stock them so had to order one, will be here Friday!

My layout is different to yours then mate, i cant see any of them relays at all, i'm just about to get a replacement relay for the one above, i'll post a pic up of mine when i'm back

Anyone confirm this is the right relay?

here:

Right guys, what do we think to this, the offending relay??: Sorry about the crappy pics but if someone has removed this relay they could tell me if its the one, good news is the car doesn't even turn over now or try to start with this removed, what do we think guys?

I think you'll find the clue is in the user information, 2.3! Smart reply considering when the O/P was made these details were not available till AFTER I asked the question! That is true, i amended my vehicle type when i was asked the original question

After trying again to get to these relays i cant, i've had the speedo etc out and when i shine a torch down and can see various relays with 40 on them but not this 30 one, cant see it from below either, this is really turning out more difficult than expected, i'm thinking it is the relay because when i try to start i'm getting a clicking noise from that direction, surely there's an easier way or is there anyone in the Somerset area that could look at it for me??? Cheers again for the advice guys

Where do i find Relay 30 guys? cant find it in my user manual anywhere!!! In my manual its saying Relay 3 is my Supply Relay, is this it? Also where are the relays actually situated guys, i've been trying to get under the panel above the fuses but its a b'stard to get into, is this right?

Thanks m8, will give it a go, oh and yeah the spark plugs were easy peasy with the right tools :(

Thanks m8, i was thinking the same, time to look at that now me thinks!

Thanks guys, sorted, reason for the change is that the car wasn't starting and i thought it was the plugs, turns out it wasn't, the car still won't start :( Its turning over as if it was gonna start but doesn't fire, had a new battery on plus the plugs but still no joy, anyone have any ideas what my next step is?? Wanna try and sort this myself before taking it to a mechanic's and shelling out loads of dosh! Cheers again

Thanks for those words of wisdom!

Sorry guys, its a 2.3 petrol on a T Plate (99)
