It bolts somewhere yeah, but it was tight. Problem was there was just half an o ring in place. Cheap chinese one out of a set saved the day. If it starts leaking again it will get replaced with a viton, although hard to source here.

Fair enough, I understand your view, my problem atm is that I paid 50 euros and they sent me Britpart which cost 8 euros on Paddocks! Genuine are only 20e more on top for a price that is already crazy for some o rings... but I understand that they do a difficult job. The britpart ones just look...

Yes, but they didnt carry genuine. And those are green? However if these are Britpart I reckon I'm better off with the old ones. Just dont fancy throwing money and getting the wrong part. I posted this in hopes that someone could confirm whether or not I am wrong?

Hi, I ordered 5 Britpart washers and 5 "OEM" o rings for the injectors on my 10P Td5 from a company. They sent me the washers and O rings all together in a non sealed Britpart bag, however I am inclined to believe that the Orings are in fact britpart, not OEM. The o rings on my injectors are...

Good evening, Today I had the sump off on our 2.5DSE auto P38 in an attempt to cure a gasket leak, however now I have a much bigger leak on my hands due to an improper install of the dipstick tube? The way I removed it was to just pull it out, I didnt see an o ring on it, but after refitting it...

Hi all, Handbrake drum was off for an oil seal replacement, all works fine over there. Once in gear it does not slip, however I havent carried out the slipping test frok the manual. It just feels like a regular zf4hp22. Today upon starting the engine, it took very long for the gearbox to go...

I don't see why it wouldn't be. The cups were flush with the circlips after the installation.

So hammering it did not help, but luckily after driving it around for a while and especially on a very bumpy road, the vibration seems to be almost gone.

I understand that the originals are not phased. Should i then refit the splines back out of phase? They are rather stiff i have to say! Yokes are free to move. No vibration in the seat. I can try to hammer the yoke on the weld however.

Hi all, I had to change one of the UJ's on the front prop of a 2.5DSE auto P38 (the one closer to the TC). After replacement, on test drive i noticed a vibration, mostly in the steering wheel, very fast but not violent at all. After this i climbed back under the car, and thinking I must've...

Hello, An update. Today I went out in the daylight to take a closer look, but the door button popped up with ease. The door unlocked now opens and closes as usual. Can't believe it was that frozen for over a week. Well, that should be the last of the cold weather, but come next winter I...

Thanks for the reply, Both the outside handle and the inside one seem to work as normal, it's just that the latch is locked. The door button is in a weird position between locked and unlocked. It only moves ever so much under force, but enough trigger the other doors to lock and unlock. I...

Hello, hope you are all doing well '99 2.5dse, automatic The driver's door is locked in a semi-open position. Does not open from inside or the outside, the lock actuator doesn't really move inside or from the key, it's just stuck locked. Interestingly though, the central locking works from the...

We tried to make one as shown by some person on YT, but found it to be too much hassle and you can simply get a rough measurement of the alignment with a caliper, one measurement on the upper and one on the lower side of the axle. Identical measurements and it's likely that it's okay.

I don't think it showed anything else. That's odd, mine acts the same with the sensor connected or disconnected. Is your EGR blanked?
