Pictures are long gone - its a 10 year old post I think alot of the old images got lost when the forum software got upgraded at some point. You might find a repost of the info on the mirez forum with some photos? probably sounds stupid but, what's mirez forum? -

Shuddering Under Acceleration
Az2102 replied to AndyMan's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
mirez did you sort this at all? I have a 1.9tdi on a 04 plate with 84k doing this. it has had:- clutch and dm flywheel complete set of drives shafts disks and pads all round front lower rear bushes new alloys new tyres drop links, roll restrictor and track rod ends seem ok with no play. any help would be appreciated. thanks You say youve had new tyres, but you may want to check the load rating of them. If they are underrated it causes all sorts of odd handling. If you want to check what you should have try a quote on blackcircles and compare to whats fitted, its the last bit (mine for example are 195/65 R15 95V, its the 95 bit that you want to check) The wrong rated tyres will also wear out quicker if that is the cause (they are normally referred to as an XL/Extra Load rated tyre by some places) 225/45/17 extra load. they are the correct rating as the ones I had on originally were run flats and not load rated. they were the first things to get changed. -

Steering Wheel Knocking And Juddering.
Az2102 replied to davidhsmith's topic in MKIII Technical section
hi. did you ever get to the bottom of this? -
re your handbrake. just did mine 3 weeks ago. euro car parts do the cables cheap as chips. (for a 1.9tdi 130). the cable was seized inside the sheathing bit when you removed the cable it moved ok, or so it seemed. cleaned up and left it on. 2 weeks later buckled new rear Brembo discs and grooved the pads. swapped under warranty and renewed the handbrake cable (also cleaned the springs on the back of the caliper using brake cleaner and a good old wiggle and then doused in wd40 before fitting new discs and pads) and all has been ok since. the heat generated by the rear brakes binding actually melted the glue on the badges of my alloys and dropped a few sticky on weights off the passenger side rear wheel. hope this helps

Possible Water Pump Failure?
Az2102 replied to steveyd's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Sounds like the thermostat is stuck open. The fan should always be on if the ac is on. Turn the ac off and check the fan again. I had this problem before on a Vauxhall. -
