Couple of questions. When does the Galaxy production stop? Is the production of the Sharan and Alhambra going to continue afterwards and if so for how long?

There are probably 2 drain tubes fitted to the front of the sunroof that run down the A posts and drain out by the front wheels. There may also be some at the rear of the sunroof. Check to see if these are blocked.

MM, is the canister a serviceable item or a vehicle lifetime one?

The tensioner is the very top pulley in the system. You are lucky if the belt is in one piece if the the tensioner is seized it wouldn't be for much longer. There is no real danger if it snaps whilst driving (like mine did) you will lose all your aux services i.e PS, aircon, water pump etc. If it snaps you will notice straight away with the dissapearance of the PS and the engine water temp rocketing. It has nothing to do with the engine timing. Next time you have a problem (if you have time) ask on here before booikng it in. The guys on here probably know more than Ford/VW and will undoubtedly save you shed loads of dosh like everyone else on here has. This really was a simple job and could have saved you

Gary Glitters last request before the Vietnamese firing squad let rip is that his ashes be made into an etchasketch so the kids can carry on playing with him.

A guy is sitting on a train opposite this gorgeous bird with a short skirt and no knickers on. He can't keep his eyes off her minge when all of a sudden it winks at him. He sits there in disbelief as the lips then blow him a kiss. Noticing his amazement at her pussy she invites him over to sit next to her. "Do you like my incredble pussy" the girl asks? "Too right" the guy replies. "Would you like to insert two fingers up it" enquires the spreadeled legged woman. "Jesus christ does it whistle as well" replies the man.

If the PS pump is on the aux belt drive (I assume it is) it could well be the belt tensioner that has seized and broke your belt. It is not too hard to replace approx 45 mins, will cost about

Am i right in believing there are no restrictions on buying and fitting airbags? Given the safety implications (being an explosive device with pyrotechnics) I find it incredible that it is not illegal to both sell these and have the ability to fit them without any experience. They are treated with kid gloves when fitting them at our place. What happens if the car you bought has had one previously fitted/replaced by an amateur? you ain't going to know it wasn't fitted properly until it's too late.

Sounds like the control unit under the front passenger seat maybe water damaged. Instead of trying to frig the back door why don't you try fixing the complete central locking system, it's not a major job. If you do a search on it there have been loads of posts. here is on efor starters. http://www.fordgalaxy.org.uk/ford/index.ph...central+locking

Ivor, you just wait until this new fangled mp3 player thing takes off, it'll blow your mind to smithereens. It doesn't even have a disc like the record or cd. You better sit down before viewing one.

I am afraid you can't they are sandwiched between the multiple layers of your windscreen, it is a very common fault on all makes of car and is caused by water ingress between the sheets usually because they have put the busbar too close to the edge of the window.

A family is at the dinner table. The son asks his father, "Dad, how many kinds of boobies are there?" The father, answers, "Well, son, there's three kinds of breasts. In her twenties, a women's breasts are like melons, round and firm. In her thirties to forties, they are like pears, still nice but hanging a bit. After fifty, they are like onions." "Onions?" "Yes, you see them and they make you cry." This infuriated his wife and daughter so the daughter said, "Mum, how many kinds of 'willies'are there?" The mother, surprised, smiles and answers, "Well dear, a man goes through three phases. In his twenties, his willy is like an oak tree, mighty and hard. In his thirties and forties, it is a birch, flexible but reliable. After his fifties, it is like a Christmas tree." "A Christmas tree?" "Yes, dead from the root up and the balls are for decoration only!"

Can someone please tell me which 7 seaters have the lap belt in the middle seat? Is it model or age related? The wife will not consider buying one with a lap belt and I want to stop wasting time looking but don't know exactly which Galaxy's have them in. Cheers.

The connections of the wire to the busbar running along the top and bottom edges of the screen maybe corroded. I think most windscreens are split into two sections left and right. I guess if you get a chip in your windscreen or better still a crack you will have to have it replaced. :D

Richie, would you mind letting us know who did your conversion as I may be interested in it myself. Cheers.

Hi all, I am in need of window regulators (the whole frame and the motor) for both front electric windows. A trip to the local scrappy is planned for Saturday morning. Does anyone happen to know if a: mark 1 and mark 2's units are the same? b: are front and rear electric windows units interchangeable i.e will drivers side passenger door be ok for the drivers door. c: are the motors interchangeable from side to side as the passenger motor is ok but the mechanism is not and the drivers side motor is sha**ed but the frame is ok, could I swap the motors over? Cheers as always.

I think a lot depends on how much you pay for the car and how long you keep it for. I paid

Slight Steering Wobble At Slow Speeds
greg_68 replied to Rallim's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Ditto, I had this, I would take it to a garage and ask them to check to see if the tyre has gone out of shape. This happened on one of mine and when they showed me it was quite disturbing to think I had being doing 70mph on it with the kids sitting above it. As soon as it was off you could see it was not right. Perhaps this highlights the reinforced tyres neccesity. Maybe mine wasn't when it was fitted originally. -
George Best Update. This morning's daily meeting with his Doctor. The Doctor has told George he has some good news and bad news, "The bad news is you only have an hour to live" "Jesus" says George "what the f**k is the good news" "It's happy hour" replies the Doc.
