    early headlight switch

    is that in the switch itself?

    early headlight switch

    I think so yea. Do they just look different and are interchangeable?
  3. Hi Don't seem to be able to get headlights to work. Fuses, bulbs etc seem ok. Side lights work and full beam. Would a broken switch fix it?
  4. 357962257 is the part number on The pump I have. Looks like from etka one supersedes the other. I'll take it anyway please :-)
  5. I'll have a look.. how many pins are on the plug of yours?
  6. Is it an early or late cl pump?
  7. Would disconnecting the battery help to reset the ecu? Tbh today I took it for a little drive and it felt a lot better anyway.
  8. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=271203146835 Sorry to hijack this thread, but could someone let me know if these clips are the right ones for the scuff plate?
  9. loosen the main feed from the pump. they have banjo bolts, this has a filter which can be blocked. the fuel distributor have the 4 feeds that go to the head and then the one to check is the bigger one on the front. it should have a arrow to indicate the flow which should be in
  10. any fuel in the metering head?
  11. I've had a Bosch sensor fitted apparently, cost me about £70, when it was warmed up it sounded alright bit idle seemed a bit high, around 1100. I'll have to find a local place with a fault finder for this ecu.
  12. It gets faster as I go faster so I tend to think it's to do with the hubs/wheels but I had those all balanced yesterday
  13. Could be that, I'll take it to another garage
  14. I havent done anything with the suspension, it was new when I had its last MOT bout 6 years ago. I can can imagine something is loose but can think what.
  15. any idea why my headlight switch now primes my fuel pump? It has been working fine headlights don't work either, just the side lights. Its got to be something I've done
  16. Bit frustrated at the moment as when I look at the car I think its great and even the engine bay looks really tidy. Sadly, this is just from the outside, its got weird electrical problems a knocking/rubbing/drone and runs pretty rough I'll start with the electrical, ( I will probably just leave it at a Auto Electrician I know ) but Randomly, the headlight switch now primes the fuel pump, ( must be to do with the headlight loom i just fitted) The clocks aren't right, the speedo is 10-15 mph out. The coolant temp isn't rising above 90, im sure its getting hotter than that The oil temp doesn't show on MFA The knocking I dont know where its coming from but I would say the front more than the rear. It gets faster as I accelerate, there's nothing loose as I pointed out this knocking to the garage that fitted the lambda and they couldn't find it. I can't see any trim or arches that are rubbing, its not hitting the suspension. I'm mostly annoyed by this any idea what it could be sorry I cant be very specific? Finally, the car doesn't like to warm start, I would say when its warm and running it started to idle around 1100 but when it was cool it was 1000. I think that the last bits are what I need to sort first, but don't know where to start with them. I've just had a lambda fitted and thought that might put it right, will that take a while for it to 'settle' I've driven it for 20/30 mins in heavy traffic today but not really been on a good drive due to the knocking :shrug::shrug::shrug::shrug: Thanks for reading my drivelings
  17. had this fitted today. Would I notice something instantly, with regards to the running/idle? I'm gonna put some more details in my build thread
  18. I've bought one recently from http://www.rayneautomotive.co.uk/ very good quality and easy fit
  19. I would be coming from south wales but im going to a mates 30th in bristol. Could meet on route, but im not sure if ill get up early after a big night out..
  20. Looks great. My Schmidts seem a tad to wide on the back, how wide are those borbets?
  21. you'd have to spec up an A5 to make it more interesting.. Scirocco looks great though.. I couldn't decide
