I find anything to do with loss of power regarding the battery causes other things to act up. So battery terminal, battery, alternator. Running like a wild animal when full charge power is corrected. I have found from experience.

Take air pipe off turbo then when it's idling spray wd40 in the turbo. Listen for bearing noise.rev it up and spray. 17mv would still run without loss unless intermittent. Try multi meter at idle and reved up to 2,000rpm. Before turbo winds up, and then holding it at higher revs and test for...

Yeah bad annoying fault ...needs cleaning every year. Even heat shrink, amalgamation tape or silicone hasn't stopped the oil getting in. I use brake or carby cleaner and air. Spray lots of cleaner then blow through with air and more cleaner and air. I was told cotton wool at either end of...

Price is about right for a full rebuild down in Essex. The green flat O ring is high pressure. Black is standard or low pressure. I'm remembering the black one is at the top of pump as a seal so put in wrong place however don't know why both were put in. alternator charge or don't. Bearings can...

I'm interested in the outcome of this as went through similar in the last 5 months with a customer. Ended up being sensor related but all because of battery and battery terminal clamps. Changed fuel pump and other bits to eliminate. Diagnostic and fault delete really helped alot.

I'm just remembering , I have a full kit somewhere. If I find I will let you know

Or drive into a mechanic and just ask if they can take off and tell you. Probably be able to buy from them right there. Personally I buy mixed packs of O rings and match up what I need, which is same as I'm saying about going to a mechanic

Nope but same size on all the pumps I've done. Sorry I haven't got any here to look at. The size is easy to find out. Just take out and measure. From memory it's the standard thickness not fat thicker O rings...but I could be wrong. Call or email Bosch and ask tomorrow. I will see if I still...

You got the pic there don't need to ask but always good to if unsure. Both sides don't have much in them that immediately will fall out. Yes O ring is logical leak, I would change O rings both sides and have a spare.

Spigot bush never make noisy rattle only droning vibration whilst driving.

I'm not sure td5 have the bronze spigot bush. I cut them out with hacksaw blades, cutting a slot piece out then pull it out. Yes need to soak in oil for 24hours. I doubt it's that as you would get a drive drone and vibration whilst driving. Rattle light metallic could be from hydrolic push rod...

Is it deep rattle or light. Deep and muffled probably just how it's going to be. Light is something loose. Need more info. If you go under while at idle, is it near to the driver's side or center.

Did the mods had it super fast. Last 5 years put it all back to standard. Same original motor. I can still spin the wheels as stock.

Another way of saying it definitely correct 👍
