Re: hazard lights
l wonder about damp or condensation in the body control unit, even a money spider across the connections, l think this is something you could check. lf the bcu needed repairing, look on ebay for someone as local as you can, l had one done for a Clio once (£30). Good luck and keep us posted how you f...

Re: "Check Injection" and Service light on when I hit 3200rpm.
Hi again, the codes relating to the glow plugs could be just 1 glow plug out or just connections at the glow plug relay. (starts ok remember) The code for boost pressure is probably boost sensor, inlet partial blocked or exhaust partial blocked. lf you're happy with it's power (only £30 tax),remembe...

Re: Cause of Misfire?
Well done, just shows how diagnostics can mislead, would have cost a fortune in a garage because they encounter the same problems.

Re: "Check Injection" and Service light on when I hit 3200rpm.
Hi, when you read diagnostics, some of the codes may be old stored ones. To find out what you've got now, clear the codes, run engine from cold till hot, then read any codes it's telling you now. Those malfunction codes probably point to the glowplugs relay. Could just be connections, haven't done o...

Re: hazard lights
A good and fully charged battery is essential with modern day electronics, it may even be the trouble all along.
Fingers crossed.

Re: hazard lights
Hi,
it could be the actual hazard switch gone faulty.
Have you tried disconnecting it.
Cheers

Re: "Check Injection" and Service light on when I hit 3200rpm.
lf it's that clean it must have been changed or looked at fairly recently, they can be terrible after a time.
lf the electrics to it were faulty, it would show up on a fault code.
Were you able to check if the inlet manifold might be clogged.

Re: Drivers window fault.
Hi, if the motor works, it must be connections or wiring or the interior multiplex module. When you say 'box on motor changed' is this the temic module you can get on ebay or another original type. l got one for mine and has been fine, lt only runs while pressing the switch and cuts out the stuff co...

Re: Comms problems.
Hi,
apart from checking and cleaning any multi connectors, l guess it needs diagnostics done for fault codes.
lf you can't do this yourself you need a good auto electrician to look at it.
lf it proves to be the multiplex module, they can be repaired, a new one is expensive.

Re: "Check Injection" and Service light on when I hit 3200rpm.
When you get it off you will see if it comes apart l'm sure. Don't forget to clean the tube out and usually it'll be choked up where it joins the manifold. lf it is and you think the manifold is choked, you need to do that also, it can only help and it's one good thing eliminated. Take pictures of b...

Re: No turbo boost until 3500RPM
Hi,
when you say 'changed the turbo' do you mean a new one and is the actuator set correctly.
l ask this as it sounds like your waste gate is always open.
Have you re-checked for codes after running for a while.
Also l would clean your boost pressure sensor just incase.
Good luck

Re: Concern on Display Faults -Help
Hi and welcome to the forum. l take it that you are not a DIYer. Apart from checking the oil level, your best bet is to let the service centre look at it. Probably they are right about the sensor and as the airbag light comes and goes indicates to me a faulty connection somewhere (usually under the ...
