I am after the bank of switches in the drivers door that controls the windows and mirrors with the plastic surround that fits the door on my 2003 406.

Anyone that can help will be added to my xmas card list

Even sprouts?

While you in there make some MDF baffles up for the speakers. It'll be more stable than the plastic stuff in there already

Ive just done a 400 mile round trip run and the car reports an averag empg of 44.6mpg and it was 80 mph all the way

My 406 hdi averages 26.7 mpg around town according to the trip computery thing. Its not been near a motorway in months.

I dont think its well as a full tank gets me around 400 miles

Ive noticed recently that fuel economy has dropped a fair bit from normal. Yet another symptom of its up and coming death???

Sounds like i had better start saving up.

when its not in limp mode does it have the power it should, it sounds like turbo failure and the intake side is full of oil causing the over-run it would also account for the fault codes When not in limp home mode but with the engibe light on its running fine, full power.

Next time i start the engine the management light comes on, the car beeps and 'anti polluti...

The car was playing silly buggers today so i popped into my local bosch diesel specialist for a fault code read. 1138 pressure regulator valve - output stage error 0101 air mass sensor - signal improbable They fiddled about a bit and cleared the codes but cant really say why its over running every n...

Its just got to 60k miles. I just assumed the life of the shocks was about over.

My 2003 406hdi is about ready for a suspension change as its still on original shocks etc. I will be running stock wheels and want a slightly firmer ride but dont want to lower it.

Any ideas on what i can get as i find the standard ride a bit to soft.


Cheers

Proper custom remap is the only way in my opinion. My research into tuning boxes led me to a remap as the best and most efficient option.

I got mine from turbo technics when i had my 306
