Also a few weeks ago after a '' dpf regen do not switch off engine'' I did a forced regen on the car with my tool, each forced regen took 8 minutes. I did 1 one day and again the next. could the high temps of the forced regen have damaged the temp sesnsor ? I checked oil level and level...

I paid £320 for my Foxwell Diagnostic too l recently. I think he may have stated '' don't drive car away'' because if it breaks down again, they would have to come out again. The car can climb hills and exceed 40 mph, its if I accelerate too quickly that it goes into limp mode so therefore I...

Thanks for this help. I think it might be the sensor 2 that the AA guy says needed changing, this is his report Patrol found the following fault code/s:System : Engine control - 2C6 / Diesel EDC 17C59 Status 0299 - Charge air pressure. Error Message : Too low. Malfunction. Status 247A -...

Hi, I collected my car this afternoon because the garage owner said they are busy for next few days so I decided to try fix this myself, hopefully by tomorrow so that I can go work tomorrow. I looked at the codes I took with my own diagnostic tool and it shows 2 codesm, yet yesterday AA guy...

I should have dropped car off at my house instead. I Left the key with the guy next door who owns the toy shop so I would feel a little awkward going back and asking for the key back, because I messaged the guy from garage on his mobile number and said I left car there. AA guy put on report...

So if it doesn't need updating I could have done it myself at home ? I don't trust garages , for all I know he might clean the current sensor and not replace it yet still charge for a new one and updated software. They have very good reviews but still, I can't be sure . Also as I dropped it on...

thank you sincerely for that info. A few weeks ago I was getting occasional ''DPF regenerating do not turn off engine'' messages. I did a forced regen on my diagnositc and it ran better but then went back into limp mode everytime accelerate. My diagnostic was showing turbo codes and it was...

Hi I have a 2014 Vauxhall Insignia EcoFlex 2.0 CDTI Today I got a message '' engine overheated, turn off engine '' on my car. When I restarted it, the car misfired very badly. The AA came out and his machine revealed an exhaust temp sensor issue, and he says it needs a software update...

Hi everyone. I think I finally lined it all up, but now I don't think I have the right bolts to go into the other end that secures the end bush. I don't want to force it in in case it strips the threads. I got the middle bush in I just put a large allen key through for now to secure it while...

That's the problem, I can't get the bolt through the hole . Also it was a real pain getting that bolt out, the driveshaft was in way bring directly above it and the bolt has a washer thing at top that is integrated into the bolt . The jack now seems stuck on other side of car I can't seem get...

But isn't the caliper etc fastened to that ? Do I'd have to unbolt all that first ?

Thanks but isn't the suspension strut what the brake calipers are on etc and the driveshaft goes through middle of it ? To remove strut wouldn't I have to take all that stuff off it first ? Also I can now fit the end fork thing onto hub but middle bolt won't go in it's still not lined up properly

Which part is bush clamp ?

I can't because front of the car is in air back wheels are reversed onto kerb so that I could get back underneath

Also I can't let the front wheels down as the front of car Is in the air. I had to reverse car onto kerb so that there was a big enough gap so I could slide the jack underneath . I remember i momentarily jacked under the hub near the disc etc to try take out a bolt. Could that have knocked...

Thanks everyone for all your replies but I feel overwhelmed and even more confused as I'm only an amateur at this . Mottie, did you mean remove everything like driveshaft etc to fit arm then refit everything ? Thanks

Hi . I have a 2010 Citroen C5. I was told the lower arm bushes needed replacing and I mistakenly removed the lower arm off the car , it turns out it is only the bushings inside the hub that the arm attaches to that needs replacing. I am in process of trying to refit the Lower control arm and...
