RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Alan_M - 08-11-2015
How do these work? I mean, do they just come on when you start the car or do they only come on when the temperature gets below a certain point?
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 08-11-2015
It come on earlier as the heaters were blowing hot from cold pretty quick
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - cully - 08-11-2015
they assist in getting the car up to running temp making it more fuel efficiant apparently
i believe they cut out under low rpm to stop large loading on the engine or the coolant temp gets above 68c
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Josh_Quant - 08-11-2015
That reminds need to check mine when I change the thermostat
How many was working on yours?
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 08-11-2015
All the glow plugs looked very sorry for themselves
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 10-11-2015
Hmm think my turbo is on the way out.
Lots of blue smoke on start up and lots of oil coming out the compressor housing when I looked under neath :/
Might give the ihi rfh4 a go or stick a gt2052s on, or rfh5
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 12-12-2015
Just got to Wales and the coolant light was on on the way here and on again
It's drank 3 litres
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Niall - 12-12-2015
What is it with you and destroying cars
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 12-12-2015
Don't start...
Too dark to go and look, I'm in Newport miles away from home.
Could be one of the following
-HG failure although the coolant system isn't pressurising
-rear water block seal failed /block cracked
-water pump seal gone /spindle seal gone
-split hose
- matrix
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Toms306 - 12-12-2015
One of your coolant heater plugs loose maybe?
Can't be matrix, you'd notice 3 litres of coolant on the floor lol. Very unlikely to be HG failure on a HDi. Though knowing your luck it's probably a cracked block or something major lol.
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 13-12-2015
Heater plugs are tight but I'll look.
Bit f*cked, I'm in Newport with no tools
Just going to fill it with water and hope it's nothing serious
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - tigerstyle - 13-12-2015
There is a friendly chap in Penarth who knows 306s well.
Now does mx5s but not exclusivley, if you could make it to his tomorrow maybe for a diagnosis/tools?
Google Penarth mx5
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 13-12-2015
Thanks for the recommendation, we're travelling home in a second.
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Niall - 13-12-2015
If you cn get a good look down the back (not easy i know) see if any of the core plugs are leaking? If so you could pikey seal them just for the drive home or if you're really lucky to find a auto factors open today, may get one off the shelf. There 52mm iirc.

RE: Paul's estate mk2 - welshpug - 13-12-2015
aye!
doh! I'd be leaving the cap on the furst click and topping up frequently, put it undee pressure and itll piss out then any air that gets in expands even more than coolant forcing whats left out.
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 13-12-2015
Turns out that's a coincidental door leak.
Shouldn't be trying to diagnose problems with a fuzzy head

There's a tiny little hole in the top of that

Not even that old which is the scary thing
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 13-12-2015
Just got to sort out the door leak now.
So f*cking relieved it wasn't the matrix.
I was thinking it doesn't smell like coolant and it's not warm
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Toms306 - 13-12-2015
Your footwell rubbish papers would be tainted pink if it was coolant also. At least it was an easy fix!
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 26-12-2015
Just about to change the injectors to 076, see if the 3k power dip disappears and the tapping!
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 26-12-2015
Number 2 injector washer would not come out for shit.
I've just put the new injector on it and it's not leaked. Only problem now, the leak offs are leaking
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 26-12-2015
Goes like stink now. Old injectors Murray of been completely knackered
Goes like stink now. Old injectors must of been completely knackered
RE: Paul's estate mk2 - Paul_13 - 26-12-2015
Just replaced the leak off pipes and taken it for a proper drive.
Wow
My old injectors must of been f*cked
The 3k power dip has disappeared as well! Happy days

Any one know the thread pitch off the top of their head?
