hi todd,
excellent!! i might investigate further as per knowledge base article then. good to know what that little dome does, its been puzzling about it for ages. i even cleaned it once. gary, im not saying anything.
cheers everyone.

cheers for reply gary, yeah i wondered about that. it seems very mean to install all this stuff on a car when it will never work. :frown: . perhaps i ll just try to fix the mirror back on, might be a drama cos the metal bracket that glues to the windscreen has come off as well. might just go for a p...

hi all, having had my interior mirror knocked off by my friends daughter :cry: i thought i would fix the auto wipers as they only work on intermittent mode. i have looked at this on the very excellent knowledge base which shows this repair in great detail. my question is, i have the sensor thing sho...

erm.....
it may be helpfull to say that my car is a 1998 2.1 td with a/c. just in case the wiring is not the same for all models.
think before you type doug.....

hi everyone, i have had problems with my heater blower working intermittently for weeks. i have checked the usual fixes as suggested on here. ignition switch ok. plugs on blower ok and various other bits and bobs. dont know if this has been mentioned on here before, but between the blower and the pa...

back home now thank god. @ steve_earwig, £403, is that all????? i might as well get 2 so i have a spare.!! thank you for pictures. i may pass on the stealers prices at the moment. @lecky4, thanks for your input, my fob i bought off ebay would only light the led for about a second. i never managed to...

hi steve-earwig, no, it was not mentioned to me. would you know where the receiver thing is??. is it one of the boxes behind the glovebox? and rather than mess about any more can i just stick my old chip to the steering column and that would be it for the immobiliser?? is this a seperate system.?? i...

hi everyone, my key fob arrived from ebay yesterday. i spent about 6 hours pressing buttons, battery on car on and off, even the fob battery in and out. all manner of sequences and some jumping up and down and swearing. this fob will not work with my car!!!!. its broke now anyway. :( does anyone on ...

hi everyone, i am hoping for an answer that even i can understand, it may be hard. i have a 1998 r reg 2.1 turbo estate, diesel that is. i love the car to bits, and its factory glossy black and a glx. thats the good bit over with. i have only ever had 1 key for the car. the remote on it does not wor...

well everyone, thanks for all the replies. a local garage i had told of my problems really surprised me. i only asked if the car could be made driveable. (before i asked you guys.). he called yesterday to pick it up. off he went. took the offending pipe off, had it welded by a specialist welder near...

yea steve_earwig. thats the little monkey. it struck me as looking like something that has excaped from a kettle, well , if you are cool with it, so am i. thanks also for advice and part number. i have several marine chandlers near me and am sure i can pick up some pipe and clips. i will replace it ...

cheers jasper5, i will be on the repair monday. got no transport to go round the scrappies to find a pipe. not had my pug long, about a month. love it to bits. the day it packed up i had been flying round belgium and france in it. it packed up about 2 miles from home. i have never seen a 406 estate ...

jasper5, thanks for your reply. yes it looks an alloy type thing which runs just in front of the rad,but a bit lower down, hence rubbing by fans. it seems to go back and forth 3 times. what i was hoping to find out was whether it could be made driveable so i can get the car repaired. i will be on it...

hello craigd, had a look, it is a bit different from mine, i have a 2.1 and that is for a 1.9.
