is that in the switch itself?
-
I think so yea. Do they just look different and are interchangeable?
-
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?

357962257 is the part number on The pump I have. Looks like from etka one supersedes the other. I'll take it anyway please :-)
-
I'll have a look.. how many pins are on the plug of yours?
-
Is it an early or late cl pump?
-
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.

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

any fuel in the metering head?

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.

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
-
Could be that, I'll take it to another garage
-
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.

heavy next to a modern car

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
-
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
-
I've bought one recently from http://www.rayneautomotive.co.uk/ very good quality and easy fit
-
Looks great. My Schmidts seem a tad to wide on the back, how wide are those borbets?
-
you'd have to spec up an A5 to make it more interesting.. Scirocco looks great though.. I couldn't decide
