Car stereo, mileage display and electric windows?

So we broke down the other night, turns out the spindle in the end of the key barrel snapped. Someone on behalf of RAC came out took it apart and used his screwdriver to turn the ignition switch to get it going.

Upon doing this my mileage display disappeared and the above mentioned, stopped working. I managed to grab him before he drove off and he came and fiddled with the switch, inserting the end of his screwdriver and turning backwards...

Afternoon all.
I’m new to the forum so here goes.
Have recently bought a 2018 Vivaro and am looking for a single passenger seat or maybe some ideas of suitable alternatives to fit both front seats as singles.
Any help appreciated

Oil filter compatibility query

Just services my meriva a. It’s a 1.6 petrol. Got the filter off and it’s a Fram PH10008.

I’d ordered service parts from euro car parts using the reg and there were 2 to choose from. I ordered both crossland filters 501721058 and the 501880018

They’re both taller than the Fram fitted but have same seal diameter and thread.

Does it matter?

Hi guys,
I have an early new shape Vivaro, December 2014 (64 reg) and at present im trying to do a bit of a camper conversion.
The charging of the leisure battery is causing me difficulty.
I have been told two different things on a facebook forum.
1. i need a split charger that works with a smart alternator,
2. A normal split charge relay will be the one i need as my van does not have, stop start tech, energy regen from the breaks, its not an adblue model.
It is how ever a 1.6 model.

View attachment 85857 View attachment 85855 Hi guys,

I have a Zafira B, Life, 1.6 engine, 2005 coming up with error code P0171 and engine management light on. It raves a little while on idle and also stalls when shifting gears. I have so far changed spark plugs, coil, EGR valve, done a complete intake manifold clean, changed oxygen sensor 1 and don't seem to have any air leaks anywhere but I don't seem to have any improvements and the code still apears. Can anyone advise what could it be...

I have a Corsa C with a Y17DT motor

I have lost all accelerator response and the vehicle idles at around 1400rpm unless I step on the brake, then it drops back to normal idle.

Already replaced the ECU, no difference. I have seen a post from one other guy who had the same issue and after replacing the EDU and TPS on his car nothing changed. My EDU was already replaced once by the previous owner.

Service light is on (car with the spanner) but not the EML. No error codes come up if I do the...

Yeah yeah, I know... Another one :)

So having established that the correct number of cars and bikes is n+1 where n is the number you have, I thought id get a track bike.

£749 of neglected ex race CB500. It'll need some reconditioning and tidying at some point but has all the pricey bits like race plastics, rear sets, exhaust etc and many spares.

Air sensor replacement

Hi All,
This is my first post, so please be gentle. I had the dreaded orange engine warning light come on. The garage pointed it out to be the air flow sensor by the air intake filter. So i have replaced it. Simple, 1 plug and 2 screws later. Cleared the fault code and all seemed well. However, my Mokka which is the 1.7cdti auto now is very lumpy on tick over. Not very helpful in an auto as you can imagine. Once pulled away from stationary it drives fine and the fault light hasn't returned....

Possible turbo boost valve?

Hi guys.
My 2016 2.0ltr 170hp has started being very loud at 1k revs. At high speeds it's nice and quiet. Also a very faint high pitched noise from the engine bay when idling and u stand outside.
Recently only twice done this, when slowing down gets louder until revs drop just below 1k.
A few Google searches is pointing me to the boost valve. What you guys recommend?
Also tried looking for it as videos I've watched shows it bolted to the front by the bonnet release latch but I dont see it....

Another Bolt Question Throttle Body

$

Not entirely sure its called the throttle body but on the 1.9 cdti 120 its the bit that the egr pipe goes into, has 3 bolts on it and like a butterfly inside.

Anyway one of the bolts the hex has rounded off so I cannot undo it. I will get it off with pliers or something but I won't be able to put it back on.

Does anyone know the correct bolts I need to replace? Size etc? And possibly where you would buy such a thing?

EGR Delete Question

Hello,

A friend of mine has the 1.9CDTi Zafira B. The EGR is causing all sorts of issues. They don't want to go down the full blank route and have to get the ECU reprogrammed.

I noticed online people sell the blanking plate with a small hole in so the engine management light shouldn't come on.

Has anyone had any luck with these? Do they work? And was it as effective as blocking off the EGR? Also did the EML stay off?

Thank you for any help
