This happens to a lot of us and as Artic2 has posted a link to the kit that solves that issue I can tell you it's easy to fit yourself in about 20 mins

Don't listen to me I know nothing :rolleyes:

I think anything after 2003 had pads on the rears what year/engine is yours?

I had stuck/bent calipa pins when one of the brackets warped so get them stripped and looked at

How is the fluid level? When was the last time they were serviced or pads replaced?

Yes I do hate it

Keep us updated on the alarm, I have had a problem with it and I have just about got to the bottom of it and want to do a thread about it when I am done

lol I used to work for him

I agree, we didn't almost invent everything in the world and then make it bettera by not fiddling around in that great British Institution we call "The Shed"

2001 TD4 180,000 new ird and vcu as I bought it from somebody that left changing the vcu too late and I didn't know about that issue when I bought the car

Can you start a new thread please

The answer is you need to buy a car that your country and fix on the cheap not have some expensive import ;)

Does it happen all the time? When was the fuel filter and pump last changed?

I will buy the lot from you for a tenner :D

Pure filth I know ;)

I used fine wet and dry not a sander!

Take them off by pulling on them really hard, then with some fine wet and dry rub the smeg off with plenty of elbow grease

The photos have not uploaded

Have you check the connector on the pump it's self?
