Difficult to start in hot weather

2011 1.5dci Euro 5. A couple of times now (and twice today) the car has started, and within about 30 seconds, juddered to a halt. After 3 or 4 rounds of cranking for 5 seconds, she'll start up when no further problems. This has happened on a couple of odd times in the past, and before I knew it woul...

J10 Towbar Connector

I understand that in the rear on the left hand side there is a socket which allows easy connection for towbar electrics wiring.

Before I start digging (and because I'm too lazy to go and look) does anyone know what type of connector this is so I can get the opposite sex to wire up?

Re: P1525-F3 and P0203-41 Faults

Yes I know the direction.

I've solved the problem. One of the injector codes was entered one character incorrect - must get my eyesight checked!

Whining Noise

2011 1.5dci Euro 5 I've noticed a droning whine from the engine bay which matches the engine revs, and it's been going on for some time now. Rather accidentally, I switched off the A/C button, and the noise disappeared. This made me think it might be the A/C clutch or pulley, but surely a) If it's t...

P1525-F3 and P0203-41 Faults

2011 1.5dci Euro 5. Recently replaced all four injectors due to an ongoing issue. After coding the first two injectors, no issues. Second two injectors installed, no faults, but couldn't code them for a while. Now I've coded them, I'm getting both traction warning lights and red MIL with P1525-F3 an...

2011 1.5 DCI EGR removal

Does anyone have a simple guide for the removal of the EGR on this (Euro 5) model? I understand it may involve coolant so I'd like to avoid a full drain down if possible!
