All Of A Sudden

[PAUL 123]

Hi all i have been reading about the various problems both major and minor and the niggles for a few weeks now and

afterwards i thought have i got all this to come and i think its started

 

1=rear top brake light gone

 

2=rear wiper stopped in middle of screen

 

3=cc given up the ghost

 

4=fill up the brake fliud who can get their hands in there (WHAT WERE THEY THINKING)

 

5=squealing heater motor

 

6=squealing belt under bonnet (in rain only)

 

Could be worse im sure but all in a matter of days mental

1. Bulbs do go, but may be related to 2.

 

2. Check tailgate loom at rubber gaiters for breaks in wires - common problem

 

3. Join the club

 

4. You have to remove the scuttle tray and have an appropriate container (with spout) - However, if brake fluid is low, you may well find its time to change brake pads.......(or you have a leaking clutch slave cylinder)

 

5. Turn radio up

 

6. Is the undertray missing or the towing eye cover not fitted? (diesel engines)

3=cc given up the ghost......

If you have a diesel its most probably the brake or clutch switch sticking or faulty....cc on diesels is easy to fix.

 

 

 

4=fill up the brake fliud .......your wife/girlfriend will most likely have small hands and may wish to help you...or failing that a small boy ( whichever is easiest to instruct)

 

 

 

5=squealing heater motor.....

Rip out glove box and have a look....easy peasy

 

 

 

 

6=squealing belt under bonnet (in rain only)...

That's because most likely either your undershield is missing or your cover from your towing eye is missing......don't worry it will stop squealing soon.....

This needs looking at now !

cc = climate control or cruise control?

Either will do if you dont mind them spilling the fluid over their hands and all over your engine bay/ bodywork. I personally think Big Kev has a slightly old fashioned view of women and children. I wouldnt be surprised if he still sends his children up the chimney to clean it. :D

 

5=squealing heater motor.....

Rip out glove box and have a look....easy peasy

Then after staring at it for several minutes.....turn the radio up instead...... :D

Good point....assumed it was cruise control.....I know assumptions are dangerous.. :D
