  1. hi , just a quick question What can I get apart from the piece of cardboard I have in it , to stop the rear window rattling around , it's doing my head in ! Thanks Ian .
  2. Just to confirm diagnosis , when I say It doesn't crank , there is no longer even a click coming from the starter motor ?
  3. Excellent , thanks , my wife is looking on with daggers , and the words why do you need one of those cars any way , so the quicker it's fixed the less she has to moan about !!
  4. hi everyone Just jumped in the fender , went to start it , it turned over about twice then heard the starter motor go click click click , now it doesn't even crank , I can hear the relay click when the key is turned to position 3 but nothing , it has been starting fine , tried another battery with jump start cable but still the same , Any ideas Thanks Ian
  5. The pump had a fuel leak out of the o ring , but it used to start after quite a few turn overs , I replaced it , now there is no fuel output to the injectors , I might try a fuel injection firm by me just to check it over , it is a cav type pump
  6. Thanks for the reply's I have about 2k budget , to sort the engine & both rear hubs seals are leaking , I just don't want to get a injection pump fitted to find the engine is no good , unfortunately I don't have the time or equipment do to it my self
  7. hi everyone , I am new to the forum , I have a f reg 90 with the turbo Diesel engine , the injection pump is u/s , and looks like quite a large oil leak from the passenger side of the engine somewhere , is it worth getting the engine repaired or get a 200 tdi engine fitted as I believe they are a straight swap , Either way is there anyone in Bristol that can help for a wedge of cash ? Thanks Ian .
  8. hi, i bought a 98 dse 9 months ago at a good price knowing a few things needed sorting, ie air suspension, after getting new front air springs fitted as they cracked and were in poor condition,it still didn't lift very well so got a new air pump ,spoke to a few people about replacement parts for pump but they didnt think it would be a long term fix. its now running lovely and the ride is great,even though its done 149000 miles. good luck dont listen to the alarmists.
  9. cheers thought it might be something like that,will have a look when it,s dry outside.
  10. hi all i have a 98 p38 with a leaky sunroof the water dribbles down the front drivers pillar, and i can feel water in the well under the s/roof is there a drain channel up there. also the seal around the glass looks a bit perished, is it meant to be completly water tight against the roof !! regards ian.
  11. managed to get to lift up,got under to find both have 1" splits in them ( booo ) ah well more money on the loved one .
  12. hi all, my 98 p38 has decided not to lift the front end on either side,air comp seems to be running ok,only failed after quite a cold night,any quick obvious things to look for. regards ian.
  13. ok ,i have brought it now,so its time to start worying about the delights of a p38.lol..
  14. hi all, i am just about to buy a 2.5 dse s reg in very goog nick, one problem tho is that when the aircon is on at tickover it stalls the engine but works fine when revs are over 1500, does anyone have any ideas or should i not buy it regards ian.
