  7. hi folks,im after a tow bar and electrics to fit a mk2 galaxy,either pm me or post here,many thanks. oh and will a mk1 tow bar fit a mk2?
  8. welcome to the forum,have fun with the galaxy. do check out the faqs in the technical section of the forum for info on problems that you may have.
  9. welcome to the forum, take a look at this thread, http://www.fordgalaxy.org.uk/ford/index.php?showtopic=13813&st=0&p=112596entry112596 this and others how to's can be found in the faqs in the technical section of the forum. hopefully this will assist you in the repairs.
  10. mmm a chrylser eh,a m8 of mines got 1,if you think the galaxy gets hot in the summer try a voyager now that really is a green house. and as mirez has allready said,these cars do suffer a bit but when you have sorted out the problems they are a solid car. check out the faqs in the tech section of the forum for info on repairs.
  11. had to have mine changed last week,the rear box had rotted off and the pipe was perished,mine to had its mot done last month as well,with no mention of the state of it at all. anyways phoned up for a few quotes and they ranged from national tyres at 300 quid plus,down to 160 quid all in.now this was for the centre box/pipe/rear box. well i phoned up ATS who quoted the parts seperatly:blink: and the chap there assumed they were the cheapest,er no i informed them and over the phone he matched my cheapest quote,GREAT the cheapest was only warrented for 2 years and ATS gave 3 years. ring round and play them off against one another;)
  12. i would check the wires again.
  13. im sure your right mirez,i just wasnt expecting them to still fetch that sort of money.:)
  14. theres a tdi 03 ghia spec in a garage near me,but wait for the price,
  15. no you can,this type, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-GALAXY-VW-SHARAN-SEAT-ALHAMBRA-ETC-REMOTE-KEY-FOB-/160567300554?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item25628e91ca BUT you will have to find the correct frequency????? horseshoe blank from ebay aswell,then get timpsons to cut the key,iirc about 7-8 quid. then do a search on here about having the pats chip reprogramed,NOW THATS THE BIT THATS EXPENSIVE AT A DEALERS.
  16. welcome.
  17. i had my clutch replaced whilst insitu,i obtained a doner compressor and we used the bits from that,only because on mine the clutch plate had worked itself loose and the centre hole became elongated and fell off.
  18. before you go down this route,have you tried adjusting the glass?i know when i replaced my sunroof,i canibilized 2 to make 1 work i had to do a lot of adjustments to get it to shut and compress the rubber correctly.
  19. iirc when mine went on my old 2 ltr,it went into an independant garage and they done it,ok it was under warrenty,but the chap who sold me the car said it wasnt a great deal od dosh,try a factors and see if they stock it,maybe some1 like gsf?.
  20. yes what you have posted is correct,but that only programs the key to the central locking,IT does not program it to the pats system,this requires the correct software/computer that mobile locksmiths may have or its a dealer visit. as said loads of info on the subject on the forum.
  21. is the key you have a remote? if so then does it work as it should?and start the car? then make sure the new remote has the same frequency as your current 1. i got 1 from ebay and got the new horseshoe blank from there aswell and got it cut at my local timpsons. thats the easy part taken care of......... now you have to get the thing programed to the pats system of the car,and this is where it will cost you. wether its having it cloned or reprogramed it could cost you up to
  22. before you replace the switch,check for any frayed/broken wires in the door gaitor,known problem.do all your windows work using global closing/opening?
  23. you can get repair lock kits on ebay. right now for the electric problem,depending on year of manufacture. you may have a flooded passenger footwell,common problem where the rear washer pipe comes apart,repair instructions are in the faqs. or the wires in the rubber door gaiter have frayed/broken,again problem listed in the faqs.
