I was searching to find a replacement and see it looks like there is another uj on the bottom of t...

Between the straight ahead position and quarter turn either left or right the steering is quite stiff and struggles to self centre when driving, go past the quarter turn point and the steering feels normal. Ive checked power steering no loss of fluid a...

Might have to have a rethink on this after seeing the pics on the link given. The compressor I got from the breakers is a Delphi unit with a grey electrical connector, I cant see the compressor on the car very well but it certainly looks like it has a yellow electrical connector which according to t...

Peugeot 406 110 HDI 2003. My air conditioning stopped working last year and when carrying out an oil change I found part of the clutch on the under tray the rivets holding it together had broken, as the pulley was intact and nothing seemed loose I left it as it was.

When done taped them all together in two bundles t...
