No, filter change was 8th to 9th March 2010, as I said straight from the parts catalogue in that thread you just bumped. For cars built 09/03/10 onwards the genuine part number is 03C115561H.

Can you send me the VIN? There was a change in filter part number at some point I seem to remember, need to know which side of the change yours is.

Have a look to see if you have relays in that location. Will be driver's side I expect, LHD car shown. Photograph what you find.

Everywhere I look in the circuits, the rear wiper is fed by a 10Amp fuse in position 40, next to the blower motor fuse; both driven by the relay. So if one isn't working because of the relay, I would think both wouldn't, unless the current demand being smaller for the wiper is what's making a difference. Try a new or 'borrowed from another position' 25 Amp fuse for #39. Take a photo first so you don't get mixed up.

This is where the x-relief relay lives, once you get visibility of the relay panel. Not sure about rear wiper feed, will check again.

See if the rear wiper also doesn't work currently, that seems to be fed by the same relay. Position 4 in the relay holder behind dash, roughly in front of your right knee when sitting in driver's seat.

There may well be a relay involved too. The 'x-contact relief relay'. Will check circuits shortly.

I've only glanced briefly at the docs provided by @fabdavrav, but aren't they exactly for the case where you can't get at those normal screws cos of non-working front-to-back motor?

What's your problem with it? There will often be a few posts that contain nonsense in any given thread. Unfortunately CAN data bus is a subject misunderstood by a large majority of posters. It's just a communication network. Do you have any useful information to contribute @Neily03?

No, that will be you.

Correct. Rear wiper, fuse 66 for example.

It isn't. It's right at the back.

No idea if this has been mentioned amongst all the bickering, but one thing to be aware of if you do change the oil, is that the car needs to be nice and level, both side-to side and especially front to back. If the nose only is lifted, the oil level will be wrong when refilling to overflow.

Ebay, maybe?

Check your recollection first, see if it really doesn't come on with ignition.

I think the fault code you are seeing is related to a solenoid valve that's physically separate to the EGR valve, and controls the vacuum level applied to it. This is known as the N18 valve, and is located within a box with another valve on the driver's side above the suspension turret. Check the wires going to this box, as the fault code suggests an electrical fault which may well not be the box itself.

Thanks Johan the robot.

Which engine do you have, 1.4 or 1.9? If 1.4 is it a BNM code or BNV (68 vs 79 bhp)?

Engine bay side of firewall, hiding under the insulation, next to the heater matrix pipes. Diagram shows a LHD car, your drain will be on the other side of the pipes, I think. Look for a bump in the felt.

Look at the diagram, there's a 10-way connector "on left in luggage compartment".

Have you checked fuse #41?

For some people, the argument is what they're here for; the topic almost irrelevant.

If you currently have 14" wheels as suggested by 185/60R14, then you need a tyre size ending in R14, or different wheels as well as tyres.
