Forgot to mention, I did a leak off test and got no fuel in the bottle, not even any in the hose. Is that normal?

As title, 300tdi with 250k miles. Smokes on acceleration, white/grey and hangs in the air. Can see it during the day too. Recently fixed a split lower intercooler pipe, drives much better than it did ! Timing belt done around 55k miles ago. Recently serviced. Did a sniff test which appeared...

New battery and a new fob, both working around the same distance but still not as far as it used to be. ATM it works maybe a meter behind the car. Happy with it tho, much better than it was and now I have a backup fob 😁 If I get time this weekend I'll put the ring back on the column. Cheers...

Just read through your build while waiting for the Mrs, cracking job 👏

I shall buy a new battery and post back with results, worth mentioning none of my indicators flash when I lock the car, also the siren is not attached. Thanks again 😁

As soon as I googled the part number I remembered that it's not even on the steering column 🤣 Just tested while holding the ring to the fob and it worked 💪 Thanks again 😁

Had a quick read of the manual, all this time I've been locking and unlocking when I could have just pressed the unlock button 😅 Putting the key in with the fob close to the barrel doesn't work, I do have a barrel from a different car tho. Could that be the problem? Another thing which is...

Thanks for the reply, I'll see if I can find my owners manual. My fob is actually from remote keys, must be 8 years or so since I bought it.

If I leave the key out or ignition off for a few minutes the immobiliser kicks in and i have to lock and unlock the car using the fob, I only have one fob so if it breaks or the battery dies I'll be without a paddle. Should I fix or disable? 1998 300tdi D1 Any help appreciated 👍

It's a 300 tdi with taper bearings, you think the gaskets are causing end float? cheers for the reply :)

My transfer box has been leaking for years and rumbling for a while too, I decided to buy a rebuild kit from ashcroft. Followed the manual but used the shims that were in it. The vibration/rumbling has gone but now a get a clunking sound when the engine starts and when under load. The box has...

Shameless bump.

Ive been trying to pinpoint my vibration at 1500rpm. So far ive done all the wheel bearings,rebuilt the swivels,new rear prop rubber,front prop uj's,rear uj's are fine,checked the phase of the front prop. With the front prop off the vibration goes,with the front prop on and diff lock...

The only way to stop it is to turn the ignition on,had a search but the others seem to be different problems.

I forgot to plug the alarm sounder back in,was off for a while but now when i plug it back in it wont stop sounding off. What should i check first? :)

Check out this page,i came across it the other day while browsing. It sounds like the best solution so far. https://www.facebook.com/Buzzweld?fref=nf

Wouldn't let me add these to my last post.

Got it sorted and i think i know where i went wrong. The pin that came with the kit would not fit when i first did it so i used a smaller one,I know know it should be free and smooth and know know how to adjust it. The last person to do the belt must have left it like this. The locking pin...

Just been watching lrtv timing videos,going to have another go now.
