Guest Grubber Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 I have just become the very happy owner of a 2003 1.9 TDI LX 90BHP and stumbled accross this site. Can you let me know if there are any things i need to watch out for in my Galaxy. Was originally an English reg but i have it oever here i Ireland now. Quote
sepulchrave Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 TBH I wouldn't know where to start... :lol: All I can say is that every time you have a problem (and 'oh boy' will you ever!) come on here and find out how to fix it cheaply and properly. Unless you have a manufacturers warranty to maintain then STAY AWAY FROM DEALERS! I cannot stress this enough. Ask anyone here. Quote

Andrew T Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 Start working your way through the technical technical threads and in very little time you will be an expert on MAFs, Booster heaters, seizing wipers, leaking rear washer pipes, blocked scuttle drains, air conditioning failures, spare wheel winches, broken tailgate wiring looms, disappearing trip computers.............................. Oh, and welcome. Quote

Guest Grubber Posted September 13, 2006 Report Posted September 13, 2006 I take it the MAF is the air flow meter just near the top of the air filter ............ actually bought the car with that gone but only cost me Quote
