Literally just received a message from the previous owner who confirmed the oil pressure light wiring was trapped and broken when the fitted the clutch.. even so I'll still check things out, thanks again sierrafery..

Thanks for the info I'll see what I can do over the next couple of days and report back sierrafery...

Before I check the oil pressure and switch how do I know if someone (🤬) has been in the back of the light cluster and messed with the oil light which doesn't come on at all.. what am I looking for and is it obvious.. thanks guys.

Whilst removing the cover to replace the cover gasket and injector harness as part of the general maintenance I found the left rear bolt was barley tight, the rest of the bolts were over tight. Yes oil was present in the ecu red plug but not excessive.The lid was blathered in rtv (cover to...

Exactly my thoughts as a lof clutch was fitted December last year I've left a message for the previous owner and awaiting a response..

Yes I know that sierrafery it doesn't illuminate during the bulb check so need to sort the problem.

I don't at the minute so need to sort that out.

Excellent and thanks for the info 👍

Think this is the oil pressure switch behind the oil filter on my pre facelift D2 td5. The black wire is not attached to anything, no warning light etc, where should it be and is it a problem? Cheers.

With the weather over the last 8 months who knows but there was no indication of such, hidden sludge etc the airbox was clean as a whistle but the bottom duck bill was missing which should be at the bottom and through the inner front wheel arch, I suspect thats how it got in..

Enough to think I'd bought a lemon and without a Nancom it was time for the Sherlock Holmes hat and follow simple clues like... water in the airbox bottom and a very damp air filter... First stop was the maf sensor although it looked ok but obviously there was no telling just looking at it if it...

Thanks very much appreciated, mine is missing and the air filter was damp/wet 👍

Anyone know where I can get the rubber valve that sits on the bottom of the airbox.. see pic Cheers..

I'll certainly try that as it would make life much easier.. Im currently looking for a good working actuator which should improve things 👍

Thank you for your thoughts and suggestion to solve my problem. Clearly my "chaotic description" created a WTF moment which in turn made me laugh out loud 😅

I'll try to explain this the best way I can. At some point the ignition barrel has been changed, so I'm left with an original key that operates the door locks, immobiliser etc other than the drivers door which I belive has an actuator problem, so I have to.. I lock all doors with the original...

Not want I wanted to hear 😉😂

Yes sorted it this morning thanks for coming back to me, gear change is now on point 👌

Yes i shall do the same, what size did you end up using...

When you set off to sort a normally straight forward little job and find Mr Magoo was there before you 😂 Centre console with broken tabs screws missing etc, damping foam missing, center plate usually held on with rivets had little 7/8 millimetre bolts inserted which is fine except they were for...
