Re: Window Issue.

I have taken both front doors apart recienty to fix mine. The reg is held onto the plastic next to the speakers, you should see three holes in a triangle shape. My doors had water in them that wasn't draining out, wiring loom and the motor controller were wet causing crazy windows. :shock:

engine oil

What do recon for oil changes, cheep oil twice yearly or something decent once a year? Mines the 1.5 dci and the filter is so small on these it can't take long to clog up so guessing the twice yearly may be better

Re: 1.5 dci pulling off shake

Hi! Tbh never thought of CV or shafts, will have a look 8-)

Do dmfs last same as clutches or do they have an average life span? Car has 130k but nothing in service book to say anything been changed regarding clutch etc.

Re: Driving advice

How about trying it out in a big gravelly empty car park or similar? So you know what it feels like if it does happen. Alex - couldn't aggre with you more about braking on a bend, and don't know why driving instructors don't deal with this from the start. Still, I've seen worst, changing gear whilst...

Re: 1.5 dci pulling off shake

Hi tom, I will maybe change the other mounts first, see if that works. Were they as easy as the top mount to change?
Am I right in thinking its not clutch or flywheel related as the juddering is only when pulling off and then only intermittent?
Will look into suspension bushes as well

1.5 dci pulling off shake

Hi, I have a shake sometimes when pulling off from rest, like the engine is moving. I have changed the upper engine mount but still does it. It is worth changing the others before investigating further? Also noticed the gear lever moves slightly when accelerating \ decelerating. Its an 06 with 130k ...
