cheers matey i thought it might be that, so need to learn about diesels i will go ahead and get a filter and oil now as in service history last service was done at 122,000 and is now 142,000 cambelt was done 100,000 miles and i was bricking it with that still i have peace of mind now.

hi guys just getting my gal all nice and spick and span just had a cambelt and water pump done, and now wanting to change oil when i was looking for oil filters on euro car parts and ebay they look rather strange not like oil filters ive seen in the past, my question is does it fit in some sort of canister type thing and is it still under the car or in front of engine near top as you look at it, as ive seen a cylinder type thing there god i hate not having a haynes manual im lost without it, anyone have any pics would help me loads cheers guys im not a complete numpty honest, really should just pull tray off and have a look i suppose, did only want to take it off the once though.

to shay was writing mine at the same time must be a good site for two of us to mention it.

chrome upgrade kit which is what your talking about i think is very expensive but they sell parts here. http://www.fordpartsuk.com/shop/galaxy_2000-2006_72/ as for badges got mine from ebay you can also get grills and other parts brand new on there, a full chrome upgrade kit for the front is

dont think galaxys ever had a red key i had an r reg galaxy bought with 2 keys 1 remote key and one normal, and my 51 plate zetec only has 2 keys one remote one normal, im sure someone will confirm this.

as said take off panel in tailgate to access door lock mec and pop tailgate, then when tailgate is open repair the broken wires you probably have in the rubber boot to top right of the tailgate very common problem done mine twice now on two cars.

out of my league then i cant even opperate our tv let alone anything else like dos , shame your far away i could have invested in a bag of sweets for you nevermind have to live with it :0(

i knew it wouldnt be long before you popped up on this matter, mirez is it hard to put it back on i must say it is a bit flash when you walk away and can do the windows up i love my gadgets, if not im going to have to save up and get an alarm i think and have it wired up to work.

what a shame i so liked that feature on my old bus nevermind at least now i know, not good decapitating the kids then again sometimes i feel that way with my two girls only joking really.

hi guys on my old mk 1 galaxy the key remote would undo the windows and do them up, sadly this is not the case on my mk 2 is it supposed to as if i put key in door and hold to the right it opens windows and also closes windows so global closure does work but just not from key and ideas why it wont. many thanks steve

thought that was a bit strange same name and all that, one thing i will say is the new key i have does not have the bulb looking type thing at the front of the remote, i must have been lucky taking a chance with mine but would hazard a guess its the one minus the led type thing at the front that works the mk 2 galaxys might be able to sell my old key on ebay then.

yes was thinking of painting in situ done it on my toyota mr2 as the bolts normally snap, used a credit card to get tape behind mouldings and came out quite well, on the car it is then if i feel brave i think if not have to chat up my painter see how much he will charge me no rush more important thing like cambelt first.

anyone got one of these rieger front spoilers fitted and as i quite fancy one but dont want the wife smashing the curb with it, ie does it sit really low and act as a snow plough in the winter i know the galaxy in the pic is lowered mine is standard standard hight. http://www.lambodoorkits.co.uk/-c-1800_1839_2053_2310.html?osCsid=7292382caf7724c58321a9722be07013

hi guys how do the exterior door mouldings come off im looking at colour coding mine as have loads of polish marks on them that wont come off and look very untidy, are they on clips or glued dont want to break them off and does anyone have any good pointers on how to remove them ie best place to start or tools to use. cheers guys steve
