Banjo-kipper Posted December 31, 2007 Report Posted December 31, 2007 Hi All, I found this web site when I was looking for an answer to wiper/car-alarm problems, but I am pleased this site has a lot more than moans about the Galaxy. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/kippertranter/galaxy.jpg This is my Galaxy, I should have realised there would be problems when I bought it in September 07. When I picked it up the front wipers wern't working. The sales company replaced the motors and now this week a problem of when the bleeding things are switched on the car-alarm horn sounds every time they reach the bottom position, oh happy days :ph34r: and of course the air con dosent work even though the sales co say they had it regassed :D But any way I will try to seek the answers I need, but I away from the car, I enjoy playing bluegrass/oldtime music on my banjo and getting drunk around my chimnea of a Saturday night Cheers Kipper Quote
stevie m Posted December 31, 2007 Report Posted December 31, 2007 Hi Banjo-Kipper. Welcome. I have a gal where the air con don't work. My problem is that there is a a break in the pipe where there is a bend at the front of the car. You can notice this as you look in the engine bay.It's a big job to replace as my pipe goe's all the way into the bulk head. The pipe isn't expensive but the labour cost for it is. I haven't had it done but i would of liked too. It may be a reason for my condensation in the mornings sometimes (I read that on here by the way). Oh well im talking too much. Have a happy new year mate and i hope i can be of help in the future. Steve m. :ph34r: Quote

gregers Posted December 31, 2007 Report Posted December 31, 2007 hi and welcome to the forum BANJO,NICE CAR.but i must ask the question whether you got any warranty on the car(hope so),if so take it back and get them to sort it all out other wise it could sound like costing you an arm and a leg.
