westie Posted March 13, 2011 Report Posted March 13, 2011 (edited) Hi,not sure if this is the right place to post this..? I just wanted to thank everyone on this wonderful forum for all the help and advice they have given me over the past few years.I have a 1.9 TDI (1999) and the old girl has nearly 200,000 on the clock & provided good service to my family of 7.During the time I have had her, I have regularly asked questions about faults i have encountered.The one that sticks in the mind, is the replacement of the relay (109) that controls the diesel pump, which even baffled breakdown services & garages.With the step by step guide, I managed to change it in an hour. Alas, the old girl is in need of a rest & a friend of mine is getting rid of his 57 Grand Espace, so I am reluctantly saying goodbye to my dear old galaxy for something a bit newer.This is actually proving to be a really sad time as the galaxy has served me well.(and TBH, I am not sure whether the Espace will be as good?) Thanks again for all your help, advice & encouragement that you have given over the years.There were times when I was really down about my car not working & you have all been great. I expect i will return again some time.Cheers guys,Steve Edited March 13, 2011 by westie Quote

daddyfixit Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) as i have said to another espace owner, think of all the new friends you will meet in the service reception area----all regulars, waiting to see if the latest gremlin has been caught!!! :lol: be very,very wary of cambelts, girl in work has just seen off the head on hers when it stalled !!!! :lol: Edited March 15, 2011 by daddyfixit Quote
seatkid Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 Is it true that the engine has to be removed totally in order to change the cambelt? Quote
