  1. Yes I've got your bigger battery choice as well, having to cut a bit of battery tray out. Worth while job. I got rid of my battery drain problem by turning off interior lights at the adjuster wheel every time I get out.

    P0235 still on going with my car, goes into temp limp mod if I boot it. Thought to be over-boost with Turbo waste-gate not being operated by the actuator. Had the complete shutdown issue on booting it but Boost sensor sorted that. 

  2. I costed them at about £110 each with those part numbers. There is other suppliers though that I found before Christmas but put car aside as can't work outside in this permanent rain.  Buycarpartscouk. Bestpartstorecouk. With makers as Dorman & ACDelco. Van Wezel. Silly cheap prices for some cars about £15 each..

  3. just a wee thing after having worked on 3000HP diesels and overhauled the seals myself. I don't know what the thickness of the CRD seals are or if they have been annealed but they should be easily bent if annealing has taken place. The seals have to crush slightly, hence the annealing, to form the seal when injector clamp is tightened. From what I've seen of these copper seals, they have only been pressed out of copper plate as annealing makes copper look dirty. Just wondering if this is why so many people get black death.

  4. Now there's a thing. I was running with this odd noise from the vicinity of the auxiliary belts and pulleys for about 2 years till I got to bottom of it. Sitting in a Wicks car park this Voyager came in and it was louder that mine but I wasn't sure of the repair required. Well I had purchased a replacement Alternator of fleebay from a breaker for £120, maybe a lot but it was like new. Anyway my friend removed the Alternator (well I continue to be knackered with back pain), and checked the belt tensioner which was found to be ok. Alternator replaced with new belts and god what a difference, as I can hear myself think now. So it wasn't the alternator pulley which was still clutching but the bearings in the alternator were what looks like dried out as shaft was stiff. So if your running with a loud hum from engine check the alternator.

  5. Fuel rail pressure sennsor AND Bypass/over pressure valve. Certainly pressure fault but got to go a few places like possible air in fuel due to filter letting air I. Then there's possibly an injector spilling too much so spill test required. If you see to all this your engine should run faultlessly on and on....Well there is other things but.
