Is that with mumof4 navigation or is there a peterborough north of the border :lol: :lol: :lol: Seriously though LAZYB5 since I'm about 10miles down the A1 from you its handy to know you have a working vag-com - what wine/beer do you drink :blink: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

slow speed over any sort of bump would indicate a drop link going - usually its quite loud though

I have used JR Fords in Shefford and the master mechanic there (Jim IIRC) seems to know his stuff but being a main dealer it wont be cheap

good luck - its a good hospital see you back soon - if you rattle, well don't let the surgeon charge you extra for his tools... :lol:

london taxi driver ---- the knowledge mumof4 ------------- the noledge :) :16: :16:

come on we all know that the only thing that affects mpg is the senility or otherwise of the driver :12: :12: :16: :) :16: :16: :16:

have a look here - I think this post is in the faq replacing coolant sensor

looks like the clock unclips

Welcome - is the mate a regular here ?

ghost??

according to the 'Master TEchnician' at JRFords the zetec has the trip computer but it is not enabled, after they changed the instrument cluster he did not enable it cos he thought it was a zetec, there were rumours that vag-com could turn it on

the light on our 2001 dash did not work but when the instrument cluster was replaced in 2004 the light miraculously worked - for what use it is !!

ummm air bubbles in the fuel may give some grief with starting, thing is the temperature dependence could be glowplugs, I wonder about the battery? putting a new one in my escort did wonders for cold starting. I think you have to get the engine under load without the maf connected to see its effectiveness or not) - I'm not convinced that the MAF will solve your rev problem I would look for a broken/split hose for that

AFAIK the mk 1 galaxies have this feature - the MK2 have 3 set intevals

look for split vacuum hoses, I seem to recall someone recently had a problem not being able to get the revs above 3k Worth disconnecting the maf and seeing if its better, if so you defo want to replace it, even if its no better it doesn't always rule it out, have you experienced the starting problem yet? does it run rough? any extra smoke what colour? more info needed

surely the previous scanner would have showna spurious signal from Engine speed sensor ??
