  1.  HI All

     

               I have the 07 model  with the erg valve on the front of the engine , this unit was fitted to some of the last motors

     

               I have read all the temp sensor location posts

     

               but there no sensor behided the dipstick  or along the head in that location

     

               anyone got any idear where mine is , as the gauge is like the windwipers

     

     

              Cheers David

  2.  

    After Putting up with the crap satnav and no Bluetooth

    Ive fitted a parrot smart unit within the dash with a bit of cutting around the facia

     

    I had to remove the amp in the back , and make some connections with the wires

    coming to it from the front also fitted a high pass over for the 4 tweeters in the system

     

    It all works fine BUT HERES THE ISSUE

     

    the FM reception is low I've connected the aerial to the unit and checked the connections to the rear window

    Is there any power amp within the aerial run , that was fed by a live wire from the old unit

     

    any help on this matter would be good

     

    cheers dave

  3.  

    There are 2 cooler pipes that come from the auto box to the cooler that sits

    in front of the main radiator

    these connections are quick push fit with a c shape clip that secures the pipe into a female cup

     

    mine have been disturbed due to an engine change and one is leaking

     

    Ive been on to the main dealer who want to sell me a new cooler instead of the screw in cups

     

    anyone had any dealings with these buggers

    After changing the fuel housing ( although second hand )

    the car has started the same issues as before

     

    as these mickey mouse housing are plastic and bolted to one of the

    most noisy and vibrating engines ever designed expect they are

    prone to this

     

    im looking at alternatives if anyone has any idears

  5.      Ok thanks for those pointers

     

        Since the post Ive removed the tank and there is no pump in there just a housing that holds the fuel gauge float

        I have all ready changed the valve in the fuel rail

        I will point out that the motor has never cut out once running

     

        I expect that the pump must have a suction side to it as there is no lift pump , and I expect this side of the pump

        is failing as the problem got worse and harder to start with priming ,

     

        I have rebuilt this engine so most of the stuff has been checked

      

        ill change the pump tomorrow ill report back

     

        thanks again for all your help

  6.  I have the late 2.8 diesel 2007  

     The motor will only start if I prime the button on the filter housing up to a hard button

     I have change the housing and the filter

     

     What I would like to know is there a lift pump in my tank 

     should I be able to here a pump running when I turn on the ignition

       

     having lots of conflicting answers

     

     

              cheers dave

  7.  I bought a 2007 voyager with a sized engine.

     Now i have come to replace the unit , i have been told that there was an engine change over this year

     and the later engine had a erg cooler fitted on the front of the block

     When i removed my old engine , the cooler outlets wasnt connected to anything , which led me to think

     perhaps this car has had the wrong engine fitted at an earlyer point

     

     Can anyone tell me if there is any other changes that were made or anyway of knowing what engine the car needs

     

     

     

     

     

                          thanks dave
