    Help please TD4, whistle and lower MPG than before the whistle

    Whistles?? Does it do this when you are accelerating just as the turbo boosts in? Do you have a loss of power after this (or at least described as lazy - like driving as though pulling a massive weight?) I had similar - leaking intercooler hoses - you won't find it looking at it and...

    Help - Not Starting!

    I'd still agree with Ming... does it jump start? If it does then you need a new battery. I have a 2000 X TD4 and same problem last winter. I came home from work (work van) and decided I wanted - for some bizarre reason - to manually control the fuel burning heater. I removed NSF wheel and...

    dare i ask????

    You have no chance with a 12v gun - you'll end up with a very hot impact gun and a flat battery or gassed from exhaust fumes! Is there not a commercial vehicle garage near you could drive to - have the nut undone there - re tighten to say 200NM and stake, drive home carefully, unstake and...

    Ha! Just removed NSR drive shaft nut which I think is the one you are talking about - oh yes tis very tight. very very tight. 400 NM tight to be precise. Make sure you have knocked out the staked down bit of nut well first - then I suggest using a 32mm impact socket (cos it fits on the flats...

    Turbochrgeoost control solenoid valve vent filter renawel

    The filter is located there but right hand side refers to the position from the drivers seat looking forward. Stand at the O/S/F wheel and peer at the rear of the engine block - you should see the little clear plastic funnel shaped filter hanging down! One end vents to air so there is only...

    Part finding.

    errrr - i can recognise one relevant point of that:- GB MPT 1337 W.T. License Exempt. this is the remote control locking / immobiliser thingy whatever wt exempt is the wireless telegraphy act which covers radio transmitting devices in the uk. so perhaps some central control unit?

    Rear Drums Sticking

    Are you sure the rear drums are causing the noise? You will also get a banging noise as the front brake pads free up when driven away - again its rust that forms and is cleared off as you drive away. Warning tho - I had a similar situation and it turned out to be a front brake caliper cylinder...
