Re: cleaning manifold

2 days later and they are finally off!

Renault do like to make it awkward and have lots of hard to get to bolts.

On closer inspection the hole in the manifold from egr is completly blocked with blacksludge

Re: egr valve blank?.. help! :-)

By just unplugging the egr valve wont that mean that it will be constantly open or is it shut by default?

I read on some site saying just take it out and put a 40mm pipe with sealed ends and it will block up the holes.

Re: 2003 1.9 dci won't start

I found that manual pump thing useless when trying to get diesel back in the fuel lines so what i ended up doing was taking one end out of the fuel filter and suck on it until it pulls the diesel through. Stop before it gets to your mouth and the manual pump should work the last little bit.

Re: Engine vibrates on idle plus crap mpg

my car has dropped in mpg down to about 40 it usually does it this time of year due to cold weather.

my check injection light was solved by fitting new glow plugs.

Did you check to see if your egr valve moves freely enough when you cleaned it so it isnt stuck open/closed.

Odd window mechanism

Its been bothering me for ages im guessing one of them has been changed in the past but what side is meant to be the proper way. The drivers side has a thin runner and dont see no cables for it where passenger side is bigger and 2 cables from it in view. http://imageshack.us/a/img703/5884/df1y.jpg h...
