  1. If you've got the name of that company that would be great Graham. Worth a shot. I'm changing the coolant sensor this week so we'll see if that makes a difference but I may just get it remapped anyway. Cheers.
  2. Very helpful. Thank you both. I've been working nights all week but I've got a few days off next week so I'll give it a bash then. Hopefully my aircraft fitting apprenticeship will enable me to have the skills to do the work myself however I have been off the tools for over 10 years (desk job) so I might have to ask a proper fitter to help me out... LOL!! Thanks again guys.
  3. Cheers Jase. Big/expensive job?
  4. Has anyone got any idea why I am only getting between 40 and 45 mpg with my `57 plate, 3 cyl, 1.4tdi?! I`ve had the car since last september and tried driving it gently at around 60mph on my daily commute of 25 miles each way (all motorway). I`ve also had the car fully serviced despite being told it was done prior to buying it in the hope that the air/oil/fuel filters were affecting it! Nothing I have done seems to work. I know the book mpg of approx 75mpg is rather optimistic but I was hoping for a minimum of 60mpg otherwise I may as well have stuck with my pug 306 2.0Hdi which consistantly returned 50-60mpg without even trying! At the moment the cash I`m saving on road tax I`m spending on fuel!!! By the way, it has done 35000 miles so I`m assuming thats classed as ``run in``! HELP!!
  5. Guys, is the switch in the door just a push fit? I've tried levering it out gently with a screwdriver but it seems to be fixed pretty tight and I seem to be unable to lift it fully without looking like causing some damage. This might be a stupid question but I dont want to break the switch!!! Is there a trick or is it just a matter of pull as hard as you can and hope for the best?!! I'm trying to get to the elec plug that fits into the switch assembly to clean the contacts as I read on another similar post that dirty/damp/corroded contacts is sometimes the problem. My problem is on the drivers dual switch. The drivers window works in auto and manual going down but only manual going up. The passenger window will not operate at all. The passenger window works perfectly when using the passenger door switch. (auto and manual, up and down)
