  1. Either it's getting so hot it's going into an engine protection mode, or it's suffering from fuel starvation I think. Either way it want the codes read.
  2. I don't know the Weymouth area, but suggest looking for a Bosch Diesel or TurnerTune outfit.
  3. Buying an at least 20 year old car there are 3 things that matter:- Condition Condition Oh and condition!
  4. I've never known courtesy lights come on until you open doors.
  5. Find out what the problem actually is instead of wasting bandwidth describing normal function of the vehicle.
  6. Excess fuel is returned to the tank during and after short journeys too.
  7. Halfords do a reliable and cheap 12v electric compressor that will certainly do car and light van tyres, and possibly cycle tyres up to about 70PSI.
  8. I recommend you post a clearer use case if you want meaningful answers.
  9. NO!! Here's a picture of a dissembled BBS split rim
  10. I remember the original version being tested in a Sierra XR4i (original Cologne V6 2.8l version with the opera windows and biplane spoiler) by Gerard Sauer and him reporting that he wasn't getting measurably different mpg but he was getting an idle 200rpm higher than normal.
  11. Yes. The LP fan doesn't start because you don't have a refrigerant under pressure in the air conditioning pipework. Anyone who is telling you otherwise is more interested in getting the contents of your wallet than in repairing your car.
  12. As I'm reading this, like everyone else I'm thinking that your a/c has leaked some or all of the working fluid so will never operate.
  13. @wyx087 And it's taken you a whole 20 hours to get blocked on my new account.
  14. 2 Para 2 - Why now, after Laurence bought his wee boy an entire F1 team?
  15. I'm wondering if it's glazed rather than warped discs... Check the runout with a dial gauge rather than putting more discs and pads in the parts cannon.
  16. Before spending out money, check if the brake lights work. If none of them do, you need a new brake light switch.
  17. Adjust the engine idle speed.
  18. Normal function. As per @Breezy_Pete above, you may need to find and clear a drain hole. It's normally left of centre with the usual convention of left and right being when facing in the sirection of travel.
  19. I'd say so, but I doubt there's a competition clutch for this model.
