Thanks mike! It's going in to the garage to have bottom arm and the caliper done - £40-£50, I'll hold him to that considering autodata say it's around 3-4 hours total :-D and faffing about with subframes and brakes! Atleast then I get my mot ticket back with 12 months as it's the mots side garage do...

Car failed on little or no effort on parking break, took to ats for 2nd opinion who said caliper siezed...

Can I take apart, re grease etc and work piston or should I just buy a second hand caliper?

Cheers

Hi

Not sure why turbo failed, the centre turbine was knackered

Apprantley egr and all associated pipe work was cleaned, I beg to differ tho.

Now appears to be leaking from the oil return so was wondering if I need to re prime or if it's a case of undo, new seals and tighten back up?

As above loosing a few litres every few 100 miles, problems not got any worse although a hazard waiting to happen, sourced leak which appears to be the oil return pipe that goes in to top of turbo as elsewhere looks dry I've nipped it up but it didn't budge so must be tight... Brings me to the o rin...

Today a dark cloud loomed over my life, i just sold our 2nd car, and on getting home and pulling up could only describe the sound equivalent to not being in gear correctly and making that qqqqqqqq noise. upon further inspection and a quick drive around, its the turbo, sounds like bearings, prior to ...

All sorted! Drained fuel using a pump from under rear seats, Soaked everything up with tissue, blew lines through and then as the fuel filter was a tit to get to I took the pipes off the fuel pump and primed until dry! £35 worth of diesel, primed, thought sod it and sucked it through the pipe that g...

That's fine it was a hetic day! Can't even remember fueling up or even going by sainsburys! There we go a expensive lesson learned. Where is the fuel filter on these and I've heard there like a paper filter? How do I prime except for towing down the road in 4th.... I'm used to the metal filters whic...

I can't believe it, I did! I put 11 litres in! What an idiot! I had the receipt in my pocket! I can't even remember going to sainsburys! I've found the fuel pump sender under the seats so I'm going to cup everything out, take filter off and empty and blow lines, then put diesel in filter and put 20 ...

Hi all 1.9 dci megane, 53 plate, 118,500 miles. Keep it short as I can. Drove around short amount if time on red, put derv in, on way home aggressively overtook a car doing 30 on a dual carriageway, on the carriage way, beep, stop, injection fault, limp mode. Stopped car and restarted, was off, was ...

Mines the 120 (88kw) faq800 non fap.

Think I have the older school engine as on 117000 and no dmf faults and are also uncommon

I've deffo got a split somewhere then,
My turbo a screams. There's no smoke ect.
Pulls fine, I'm not sure if the second hand intercooler pipe has blew, or if the pipe on the turbo has a split, struggle to see back there as its crammed!

Hi all, Been on a good run with my car, and not been any problems what so ever! has not missed a beat! However i have a very noisy engine, recently had clutch, crankshaft pulley and a service done by garage... Well i think its loud, i heard a megane 1.5 dci in the same carpark, and it was almost as ...

Hi all! Well car is home, but on way back from gearbox center, i noticed when accelerating theres a whoosing, it almost sounds like the blowers are going on, thats the noise! it wont do it when the clutch is engaged and you rev it, only seems to do it under true load, and about when the turbo hits a...

Clutch is good news! That's that sorted most likely for the life of the car now! Gotta get on the water as its stopped the drivers window working and it was working! Woodpecker - the car is green so that answers that lol! Aircon pump can't be siezed as its working ice cold! It's had 2 pulleys and th...
