here you go :unsure: Removal 1. Raise and support the vehicle. For additional information, refer to

and looks like a mobile easter egg to boot - well IMHO - although the c4 less so - better than the c3 ?????

have you tried here

:)

did it sort out the emmisions problem ??

is it possible to put the thermostat in upside down ?? :( on this model

agreed - fine in the outback where they are called roo bars not in downtown birmingham etc

no - bus bars - used for carrying electricity in high current/voltage applications not bull bars (aka child killers :35: :P :P )

out of interest what does it have - bus bars ??

This thing about MAFs still confuses me a bit. I have read posts that say people have unpluged it and got a dramatic improvement in performance. Is it only diesels that are badly affected or does it also apply to Petrol models ? Mine is a 2.0 petrol If the MAF is OK what happens if you unplug it.... does performance get worse ? I tend not to drive my Galaxy "hard" but I did try unplugging the MAF one day and going for a burn down the dual carriageway. Coming back the other way I plugged it back in. I didnt really notice any difference in performance one way or the other. Does that mean the MAF is OK or should there have been a noticable difference eg MAF knackered = runs better unplugged MAF OK = runs worse unplugged Does no difference indicate that it is on the way out ? Thanks Keith It seems that the thick film sensor used degrades over time - so at some point I would guess that it would make no difference - but perhaps its so far out of spec that the ecu doesn't believe it anymore :35: and uses a default value whether its connected or not :P Makes a big difference on diesel engines not sure about petrol variants though

Thanks Nik, will have a go. :P If you can stop playing pacman long enough :35:

declining mpg was the earliest sign that our maf was degrading - I thought you had changed yours recently - was it a new one?

probably more help with car/engine/age details :35:

wife and kids like this one :P tend to listen to '2112' at home (and the track 'bytor and the snowdog' :D

bloody hell - glad you're all alright - shaken or what :35:

between the handle and the door card as mo4 says under your fingertips as you grip the handle, I think you prise then up from the inner bottom edge - glad you like the car :35:

just because the it gets worse without the maf connected does not mean that the maf is ok - had a similar problem on ours (same age - 60k) changed the maf and the difference is amazing. see original thread here how many miles has she done ?

what ? mini money munchers - very cheap to start with but later on ....... ;) :D

quite like 'hergest ridge' too ;)

white smoke can certainly indicate timing out but variable ?

surely you must have a landline unless your on cable then

yep - artexed and painted ceilings, coving on and painted, same for skirting board just walls to do ;)

WATER BOYS - Irish folky band ;)

Thats what its supposed to do - on one of our child seats it doesn't do much but on the other two it does - works better without the child sitting in the seat though

was that 'Ride of the Valkyries' or 'Flight of the Bumble bee' ?? :ph34r: :D :D :D
