    79 series 4.5tdi windscreen washer pump slow/ not working

    Thanks Towpack, Higgy, I tested the voltage again and was receiving only 10 volts. With the pump disconnected and pull the switch to activate the pump, the wipers go twice, when I connect the new pump, the wipers don't do anything. I am suspecting a problem with the electrics, is there a...

    79 series 4.5tdi windscreen washer pump slow/ not working

    hi, I have a problem with my windscreen washer pump working slow, dribbling out of the nozzles. I measured 12v at the pump on the wiring and changed the pump, no change. The pipes are all clear so there is no blockage, cleared these with an airline. Question is, I have checked the fuses for...

    Engine light on running rough 4.5TD v8

    Yeah, sheer luck I think, it had me worried, I thought it might be the ECU and something more sinister.

    Engine light on running rough 4.5TD v8

    Hi John, I did manage to source the problem, it took a little while to figure out as it only started happening once the engine started warming up, my first reaction was fuel but it turned out to be the coolant sensor believe it or not. This took me about a week to solve, the thing that was...

    Engine light on running rough 4.5TD v8

    hi guys, Just filled my tank with diesel and drove 10 miles and the engine started running rough, with the engine light on solid. Any suggestions on what I need to look at? Is there a code reader that I can purchase to give me readings?

    How do I cure rust in rear wheel arches ??????

    Roger, 100% agree. I have used POR 15 products successfully in the past, it is all down to the preparation. Using degreaser and metal prep which contains some form of peroxide, removes all oxidation and leaves it ready for the rust proof paint. I also found a product called ACF-50 penetrating...
