After having got close-up to the brakes I can see that an upgrade will definitely be the order of the day at some stage. I managed to solve my brake problem by rolling the car backwards in Neutral and then pressing the handbrake pedal and it ratcheted ! It should get me through the MOT. The only thing is that now. I can here a clicking sound when I depress the brake pedal whilst it is in P ? after doing some research apparently this is normal ? Thanks for all the information.

Ok great. Funny you should mention the hand primer since i used the car for two runs today with about a 4 hour gap in between on both occasions i hand primed beforehand and the car started fine i did also keep my foot on the accelerator at the same time. It's worth noting that the primer wasn't hard, so fuel pressure wasn't being maintained !

Thanks, before giving this a go is it worth an assault of wd40 or would that risk worsening things ?

I dont think the emergency handbrake pedal has ever been used, the previous owners just kept the vehicule in P. Ive got an M O T soon and the pedal doesn't latch when I push down on it ? Any advice ?

Ive just been given a 2006 LX 2.8 CRD with 124000 kms and im quite happy with it. There are issues and i know Im going to have to invest a bit of time and money. So I did the key dance and got code P0235 : Boost sensor Ive located it and it seems brand new. EGR valve ? TURBO ? Im having intermittent starting problems,I turn the key the engine fires up for a second and then cuts out other times it starts fine. Im presuming its a fuel issue the fuel filter heater housing plug is not connected,i havent reconnected it and it hasnt any signs or burn of deterioration. Im going to try and test the pressure release valve and change the fuel filter, things which are simplest first. The warning water in fuel filter symbol comes on as well as the engine warning and an airbag warning.I emptied the fuel filter a little but still get the warning. The previous owner told me the car seemed to lacking its punch of old,i cant tell. Any pointers ? The simplest first .
