Must thank you, I've just put the Foxwell on it & it had indeed logged an over temp. situation so I cleared the code & hey presto no fan, must of happened when I switched the ign. on with the temp. sensor disconnected :rolleyes:, time for (another) celebratory 🍺 🍻,all the best.

Managed to get two HK A post tweeters, mine has the Hi line Lear with Philips speakers but the HK's fit except the wiring connectors are different :rolleyes: (they're also the same as the FL1 HK mirror tweeters), along with a new o/s rear door mid range tweeter so the sound system is as it...

Thanks for that. As it did it straight from cold it is a bit weird & it doesn't do it with the ign. just in pos ll only when it's started. I'll plug my Foxwell in & see if it's logged anything & check coolant temp. reading.

Hi, yeah the air con fan (if you look in Rave it calls it the engine cooling fan). If you disconnect the outside air temp. sensor, (@sierrafery recommendation) it brings that fan on whenever you operate the air con otherwise that fan won't cut in until the outside air temp. hits 35 degrees...

I've tried swapping relay R4 for R5 (cooling fan & screen wash respectively) but still the same so my faulty relay theory goes out the window :(.

Hi all, I've replaced the condenser rad (can't get system re gassed until Monday) & finished it all today (changed oil & filters + partially drained coolant enough to just remove the two top hose connections to the coolant rail on the side of the cyl head). Put all the fluids back in but when I...

If it happens again @Alibro don't forget to smash a different window now you're down one spare 🤣🤣

Oil& filter change whilst it's in bits for the condenser rad. Noticed my latest Meyle filters are now chinky compared to last year's Austrian 🙄

I must admit it's the only problem I've had with them. It, the 1st rad, was sent back next day, I left it for a couple of weeks & then started chasing them & it was always "we're waiting for our returns dept. to inspect it" Like you say probably had to wait to restock. (Didn't even get the first...

Been fitting a new condensing rad to the D2. Bracket bent slightly (easily straightend) out of the box which is a big improvement over the one Autodoc originally sent me as the whole rad. was curved (like a bike one) + the drier pipe was pushed into the core, only took them about 3 months to...

As well as the manifold I would remove the intercooler & flush that along with all the pipes & hoses with it. If it hasn't been done you'll be surprised, along with the manifold, how much oil/sludge builds up in the 'system' helping it smoke,all the best.

Hi Stan, I tried the 10x1.25 & pitch interlocks with the kit tap the 10mm is to big ! Using a pitch gauge the thread measures 20 TPI. Measuring the kit tap is awkward as it only has 3 flutes (all mine are 4 fluted) but it's about 9.5ish mm. So I think I'll grind a bit off the taper of the kit...

Hi Stan, I do have a set of taps/dies but as the helicoil kits tap isn't marked with it's actual size (why I don't know :rolleyes:) I presumed they were odd sizes. I'll try a 10x1.25 tap tomorrow & see how get on. Hope you're keeping well, all the best.

Hi all, I have drilled & tapped the two holes for the eng. cover (on the turbo side) to take 8mm helicoil inserts, the problem is because it's a blind hole (which I've drilled as deep as possible) the taper on the kits tap bottoms out & I don't think the inserts,which are only 8mm long, will go...

Looks different to the 04 model

Hi, as the IRD is a separate unit (no need for g/box removal) & is easy to remove, you could just refurb that for now as suggested by @GrumpyGel (if money is tight) & worry about the clutch later. I wouldn't drive it anymore as the IRD casing will explode & that will be more expensive, good luck.

Hi, perhaps I misread/understood when you said " the biggest issue is when people with the HK or Lear set-ups plug the iso connectors from the new HU's straight into the trucks loom & wonder why they get incredible volume" + the 'specially' made loom from the non amplified RCA's you mention. On...

Hi, might be worth telling the good peeps on here the actual symptoms you've been experiencing. Have you got (or got) access to a nanocom for some live data ? If so post some pics (of the data) on here & one or two people spring to mind who will point you in the right direction. There's also the...

Hi ya, bit of a thread revival going on from me. D2 with Philips HL audio set up, I tried this Kenwood HU & it all works great but as you say volume being amplified twice, it's LOUD🤣🤣 but don't get any interference. From the pics could you tell me what I need to cut/splice & where to connect...

Hi all, has anyone got two working A post tweeters for a D2 ? Mine have the p/no xqn000010 on them, if you please let me know, many thanks.
