Breaking a 2004 2.8CRD. All parts available. Located Wirral.

New filters?

Right. P1130 error code. Never stalls, only smokes a bit on cold if sat for a day or two, never chugs, fuel consumption is average. Would this be a case of just wiping the code to see if it goes or something more sinister?

So, found on YouTube someone had made the mod of installing a thermo into the coolant pipe leading away from the rad. My thermo appears to be stuck open, never gets above quarter. Has anyone carried this out before, and successfully? Looking for tips.

Is it as simple as that? Which relay could I swap it with?

So my wipers won't stop even when I take the key out. I've now removed the fuse. Looked around online and found that it is probably a faulty relay (Omron G8V1C7TRDC12). Found online that most are shipping from the US, so postage is astronomical. Has anyone an idea where I can get one in this country, or if anyone is breaking? Thanks in advance.

Right. I've had a problem with the brakes staying engaged while I'm driving, making the wheel super hot and smokey (not great). I've taken the caliper off and sprayed up the rubber around the piston (no cracks or leaks) and greased up the pads too. I've started bleeding the system and thought it was done, so I turn my engine on and straight away the brake engages and won't disengage. I'm thinking now its not the caliper/piston but more of an issue with either the master cylinder or the brake vacuum (if there is one).

My NSR wheel was getting super hot and smoking, also smelt quite bad. I've decided its not the bearing (I always start with the worst case scenario), so I've done a bit of fiddling around and decided its a sticky caliper piston. I've managed to take the thing apart after fighting with the caliper as the pads were solid against the disc.  I've only just bought the car and it wasn't great when I got it, but now I've pumped it out and sprayed it up with WD40 to loosen the rubber a bit to keep me going til I find a new caliper (anyone know where I can find one?). But now I can't get that bloody piston back in. Anybody got any ideas?

3.3 Grand Voyager LE 99/00.

Hi guys! Just bought my first Chrysler - 3.3 Grand Voyager.
First of all, great car. Super powerful and sooo comfy.

Now, took it for a trip to IKEA to test the luggage space. Not great, but better than my last car. No problems there, but when I got home having travelled around 80 miles in total I got out the car to find the NSR wheel was smoking and super hot! Far too hot to touch and you can feel the heat coming off it. I waited for it to cool down and went out again, this time only doing about 5 miles, same thing happens. I've taken the brakes off and stuck it in neutral and I'm able to move the car rotating the wheel, so I don't think the brakes are ceased or failing, I'm just hoping its not the bearing. Could somebody please help me out with this?
