Slider switch gets dirty. Remove, take apart and clean the copper tracks. I've done it a few times......

I had one split once. I just welded it up. Still okay now after a few years service. It's on my shipping list but we all know how that goes

Yep, couldn't find a magnet at the time. I will find one!....lol

Mine had the red stuff when I bought it. I just did a vehicle look up on The comma site and still the red stuff. Been in 3 years now with no problem. If you change the type you have to really flush out well as some can change to as thick gel when mixed which will bugger it up even quicker.....

Hi, in process of building a smoke machine. In testing it of would seem my dipstick tube is broken by the top mount. Anyone had this before and is it weldable. Ie is it steel..... Cheers

Thanks so much, I'd been hunting for hours. By the time postage is added I expect it'll be more than a tenner for a little bit of steel........ Cheers guys

Hey everyone, Does anyone know the part number for item 37 in the pic. It's the little rod going from the door actuator to the bell crank pulley. Thanks guys

Well everyone, my friend has finished the delrin bush and I am rather pleased with it. Obviously I still need to fit and I will report back but it looks good and only cost me the delrin off eBay. My friend did it for nothing. He's retired and was thankful of something to do. I might get him some...

Thanks guys. It was a cheap fix thankfully. It was a bit of a mare at the time as I needed the car tomorrow....

Panic over.... I removed the pump and then remove the little pipe. Turns out there is an o ring that had gone hard. I replaced it and leak solved. I thought I'd fractured the pipe. Thanks

Thanks but no. I just spoke to James Martin and it's not a part you can buy. It's classed as part of the power steering pump

Just changed a power steering pipe and found that there is also another leak from the pump. Does anyone know the part number for the metal pipe that bolts to the underneath of the pump which the reservoir pipe attaches to? Or what it's called. 1995 300tdi Thanks

I agree, it is becoming more and more appealing for a delrin bush. Especially as I've just taken the original bearing apart to find it is one line of very small balls. The outer race is made of two halves of metal with rubber around then the outer bit you can see in the photo. So it's like a...

I guess it's not an angular contact bearing then as there is only one bearing and is held against a shoulder on the sleeve by bending the tabs over. There is no way of adjusting the preload. I used to have an old Austin car with a plastic Bush for the top bearing so it's totally feesable and my...

Here some more photos

Hi James mate, That's the problem in having. Can't seem to find it anywhere............

I believe it's an angular contact bearing? If you look closely the inner race is closer to the outer race on one side. When it spins you can see it spins of centre. More importantly it came up as an advisory on its MOT for lateral movement on the steering wheel. That Delkin looks like a...

I did find this but they only want to sell in bulk to the trade. All there contacts are Hong Kong and such. Website is tradebearings It's off a Delphi steering column by the way

It's off a 2004 Fiat Punto steering column(top bearing) Main stealer don't sell it, only the whole complete column for £650+vat! You are right, it is French but I can't read the other stuff. Measured by a bearing specialist with a caliper thing. I will try and get a closer photo.

Here's some pics.
