Today I picked up a set(no) of wheels for Frill from the post office. I asked the seller (a woman) whether all five wheels are the same size, to which I received an affirmative answer. And 4 17" wheels and a 16" spare wheel arrived (although they were all supposed to be 16") Well...so-so. now it will be necessary to think something with the spare wheel. It is possible to change together with the change of the main set. I also ordered small maintenance items - all filters and rollers. I also plan to replace all fluids during service. I think hardly anyone changed the antifreeze and brake fluid in it.

I’m certainly no expert on this (plenty on here that are), but Google says that UHC 500120 is from the V6 petrol model, so I would assume it is of no use in your TD4.

Checked. Great for TD4

Picked up some spare parts from the post office today. two rollers (one of them began to creak from time to time, I will replace both), air, oil, fuel and breather filters (I decided to install the cyclone type) and also a gas spring for the rear door. All in all ₴1586.00 (approx £36) now the only thing left is to pick up the car from the repairmen)))

Have they sorted the gearbox?

Уes, disassembled. I know for sure that the clutches were replaced, the "bagel" was repaired, a known-working hydraulic unit was substituted, but the car does not drive normally (at least forward), as if it is in emergency mode, as if it starts moving from the third gear. The masters continue to diagnose the malfunction, but every day I have less and less optimism for a successful conclusion. On Wednesday, it will be a month since their car is being repaired (((
Determined to take the car from them and look for other masters.

Sounds a sorry story.

Yes, it's sad that the time was wasted. After all, if these guys do not repair the gearbox, I simply will not pay them. No result - no payment. However, they are not the only masters, so I will deal with this malfunction.

What setting? How is the video unfriendly.

There is a message on the preview screen saying "Playback on other websites has been disabled by the video owner"

Good luck with it.

Because it can not be played embedded and comes up as 'unavailable'.

We talked about this some years ago. It wont play embedded but provides a link to play on youtube if you click it. We talked about this some years ago. Many undesireable websites embed youtube video's as clickbait to get peeps to visit their own website. They do this with automated software. The sort of sites you wouldn't show to a copper on yer fone. The only way I can stop this is to disable the vid's embedded mode. Sadly all my vid's have had to have this done to them. But they all have the play on youtube link in them.

I understand now.
So, how did you know your vids were up on these - ahem! undesirable sites?
I only ask cause I might want to take a wee look.

Search for the video code to see where they're used. Also from search results on google. They pinch yer title and search tags anorl.

Finally took Frill from the aggregators. As I thought, they could not achieve normal operation of automatic transmission. The fact is that the symptoms are not constant. The car sometimes drives, then it seems to start from the third gear. In addition, the TC, DHC and airbag (srs) lighted up on the panel. Regarding the airbag, I know that you need to look at the connectors first, with stop signals - the switch on the pedal. I will try to get in and have a look. The rear side lights are not lit, instead the brake lights are constantly lit (the gooseneck is not lit - need to check the light bulb and contacts) I believe that the problems with the automatic transmission can somehow be related to these malfunctions.
Also, as soon as I took the car from the masters, I reset the automatic transmission adaptations - (it was not me who did it, but my wife, my leg is still not in order, unfortunately) she pressed the accelerator pedal to the floor, turned on the ignition, waited 20+ seconds (the wife said that the pedal slowly lowered to the bottom) then released the pedal and started the engine without turning off the ignition. After this procedure, the car drove as it should until a certain moment (stopped on a rise before a turn - passing oncoming traffic) and then as if in emergency mode, as if starting from third gear.

You should get a diagnostic code reader to determine the reasons for the warning lights being lit.

I don't know if a proper diagnostic device could help with the auto box. Tell you what gear the box thinks it is in. If it does think it is in 3rd gear when starting off, then why would it choose that gear? Maybe the ABS sensors are giving a faulty road speed.

Still many questions and have no answers) But little by little I will unravel this tangle. Yes, my next visit will be to a diagnostician who will be able to read the errors and it would be good if he could fix the malfunctions.

Did you fit the correct control module for the transmission in the end? You were unsure which one you had…

No, I was sure. I had the one on my car that was instaled from the factory, and another one was sent from the gasoline version of the KV6, and I wasn't sure if it would work adequately. But as I wrote above - it fit perfectly and everything works fine.
I'm sorry if I wrote with mistakes - I'm trying to write without a translator

iІnteresting events continue to happen ... I made an appointment at a modern service station that recently opened (I saw an ad on facebook, I liked it) for Friday at 3:00 p.m
Мet by a friendly girl, the car was picked up by a service employee. The girl said that they will conduct a diagnosis and send me a list of work and the cost of approval tonight or tomorrow during the day. Nothing will be done without my consent.
Should I say that I did not receive this list either on Friday or Saturday?))) on Monday at 10:00 a.m. I reminded myself, to which I received a reply like: "a couple of minutes, I'll add the list, a little later I'll upload a photo." Well, ok. The list came at about 1:30 p.m., when I had already driven up to this service in a taxi to pick up the car. when I entered the territory, it turned out that the car was already being repaired and they had time to change the air filter and started to change the crankcase gas ventilation filter...
Oooh! it was a scandal))) Despite the offered discounts and persuasion, I quite loudly called them liars and took the car to an electrical specialist. I voiced my wishes to him (repair the brake signal switch, the right door did not open from the remote control, and clean and ring the contacts in the automatic transmission connector and downloaded the Hippo video)
So today I picked up the car (finally!!!) The stop signal switch has been repaired, but the specialist noted that it will not last long and a new switch must be ordered, as the plastic in the old one has become old and brittle He was not able to repair the lock because the mechanical part is wearing out (I ordered a working used one from the disassembly and it will come to me tomorrow) He fixed the contacts in the connector on the automatic transmission, but noted that there is an automatic transmission error P0732 and it is not related to the connection The SRS error that lights up on the clock is, unfortunately, not a connection under the seat but a loop from the steering wheel. I will think about how to repair it or where to order it.
As of now, the car drives quite decently, only from time to time it switches gears a little hard. F4 does not light up. But I still plan to visit an automatic transmission specialist. Maybe someone has something to suggest about error P0732? I will be grateful!

Sounds like the car is performing well now.

Sounds like the SRS problem may be the "clock spring". These issues are reported quite often on here.

You have to be very careful when working on the airbag that you don't set it off, but I think people move the wires to another unused track on the spring. They will often move the wire to a cruise control track.

As I say, be careful. Disconnect the battery some time before trying anything.

I've not done this myself.

UPD
Observation. The car stopped, must have cooled down and is going again anyway. Tomorrow I will try to warm up the engine well and go for a drive
