Re: Argh! ABS palava...

I know it's now a bit late. But I'm sure on the 406 you could just change the abs ring, you had to heat them up to get them on. Sure I did on mine years ago. It was a late one though 53 reg.

Re: Power steering problem

Thanks for reply. thought about the struts and the u/v joint. but because it worked for 3 weeks or so after fluid change have sort of ruled those out. also when i had both front wheels off the ground you could still feel the resistance even with the engine off. after i drained the fluid tried the sa...

Re: 406 110 hdi - limp mode - can't clear codes - Please help

Update: It's Fixed, It's ****ing FIXED. Was just rereading the posts, James (canyondust) over on tdocuk.com said that the MAF was only directly connected to the ECU. So I thought for one last dich attemt would take ECU to bits. There it was a burnt out circuit, burnt all the way down the pcb. So hav...

Re: 406 110 hdi - limp mode - can't clear codes - Please help

sounds more like a throttle potentiometer fault, clear the codes, then with the ignition off unplug the maf, start the car and see how it drives then check the faults The throttle potentiometer fault and system voltage fault are only there when i plug the MAF sensor in. with it unpluged all works f...

Got a scrap joby (all numbers matched so think its the right one). thats when it went tits up. Fitted new one no bother. but w...
