  1. this was an expensive 4 bike (bought the 4th option at the time of purchase) fits on tail gate -, bikes are individually lockable all bits present it doesnt use straps - was extremly secure and sits just above the number plate as before needs collecting - I dont know if it fits mk1 collection between huntingdon and peterborough - Im not going to box for courier collection you need to email me on nikpv at nasuwt dot net
  2. If you have 2 keys already programmed to the PATS then you can program a third yourself
  3. Sold my galaxy and so I have for the Mk2 Air compressor for air con - new boxed (without the clutch assembly) Tonneau cover - dusty :-) New glow plug for aux heater need picking up from east midlands email me on nikpv at nasuwt dot net (I dont check back on this forum very often)
  4. bloody hell 'HE'S ALIVE' :rolleyes: Well yes but the poor old gal is dying - looking to replace with mk3 sharan :41:
  5. Had exactly these symptoms - turned out to be the injector wiring loom - get the codes read it should show up (Im assuming its one of the last Mk2s
  6. Hiya Just a note about the fuel gauge - early 2001 models had an incompatability between fuel sensor and instrument cluster - after many trip to the deal;er in 2002 they replaced the instrument cluster and the problem went away and I also got the indicator for the Cruise control which was absent on the previous unit :-) details hazy it was 10 yeears ago but the symptoms were the same as you describe
  7. well I have had exactly the same symptoms as you - had everything checked finally bit the bullet and had the head gasket replaced and head pressure tested etc head was skimmed as well - now it drives beautifully :-) I have had spent 3 years topping up water - sometimers a lot sometimes hardly any oh and it never has overheated beyond 100 and that only twice until about 2 months ago
  8. Yeah sorry SEATKID I saw the 2010 date and moved it, then went off and did something else before I read your replies
  9. yes start posting them and put links here and I will try and make some sense by moving the posts to one thread ... over to you ....
  10. Its all in the manual and it is easier to explain with pictures but here goes.... 1. Push all the rear passenger headrests down - you need to squeeze the release button located on the n/s plastic trim where the n/s headrest steel mount goes into the top of the seat back at the same time as pushing the headrest down. 2. put all the rear passenger seat backs down - middle and back rows - by lifting the small lever located between the back and base on the side opposite the seat belt clip - alternately these same levers stick out rear of the seat and can be pushed downwards when behind the seats to release the backs. 3. starting with the middle row, flip the base of each seat up and forward by either pulling up the large lever located on the side of the base at floor level, or alternatively pulling the red loop located under the seat from behind toward the rear of the vehicle. If you look under the rear seats from the rear hatch you will see the red fabric loops and can try it out. 4. with all seats standing on end, work from the back and hold the top of the seat with one hand and with the other hand squeeze together the two horizontal metal bars which were under the seat but should now be facing you. This will release the latches holding the seat in the floor. At the same time push the top forward to lift the latches clear of the floor and release the bars. 5. Carefully lift the seats out the car - the seats are very heavy so dont try to remove the rear row of seats through the side doors unless you are strong enough to hold these seats and juggle them at arms length otherwise you will likely do some expensive damage to the paintwork.. Women and weak men will probably require assistance to lift these seats out of the car (No offence intended but they are pretty heavy) so its the same for a mk3 galaxy then ??? assuming that a 2010 galaxy is a mk3 :-)
