    Does the door light switch on the other door operate the light correctly?

    Any Electronics Wizards on here please ?

    Don't know that system what was the original aerial, was it just a length of wire or a proper aerial with a connector on ii?
  3. Kwakerman

    Has anybody got one of these?

    I think the washers inside the injector can be different thicknesses and are swapped around to set the needle lift (pop) pressure. If that is correct and you don't know what was in there to start with then it may be worth sending it off to get it set up correctly

    Which Make of Oil Pump Rotor Assembly

    If it's in good physical condition and it measures in spec then is there really anything to be gained by replacing it with a new (but unproven) one after all it is just two lumps of metal at the end of the day so not much to go wrong?

    Try rolling the valve stem on a flat surface with the head overlapping the edge, you should see any wobble on the valve head

    If you are that worried you could always remove all the gubbins from the shaft and roll the shaft on a flat surface to satisfy your mind.

    Landover 300 TDI won't rev past 2050

    If it started after changing the lift pump are you sure you got the pump fitted correctly with the lever over the cam and the pipes the right way around? Might be a bit messy but you could try disconnecting the pipe at the FIP, (put it in a bag to catch the fuel) then give it a quick start. It...

    1998 300Tdi oil drain pipe - What spanner size?

    I'm 98.763% sure it is 24mm, thought of that size when I saw the title rather before reading your question
  9. Kwakerman

    Can you help diagnose this sound?

    I would suggest that you put the pulley on the shaft and see it there is any up / down and side to side movement of the pulley on the shaft. If there is then there is a good chance the pulley will run slightly off centre and that will cause aux belt tension to pulse which may end up causing...

    For the 300 its 80Nm, so I would imagine the 200 would be something similar

    Another thing to try is turning the crank to tdc making sure the crank woodruff key is vertical. in that position both No 1 and No 4 pistons will be at tdc so on one of those cylinders both intake and exhaust valves should be shut and have the 0.2mm clearances. If neither sets of valves are...

    As JM says it may be worth looking at the cam key, the chuff sound sounds like a positive opening of a valve rather than air leaking past a stuck open valve if you get my drift

    Take the rocker shaft and rockers off so that all valves are closed at the same time to carry out a comparison

    Just to clarify, what I said was that the timing needs to be correct for a compression test to work properly (on any engine) otherwise the valves would open / close at the wrong time so you would get an incorrect reading. Also said that timing looks ok from your pictures. One other possible...
