  1. Last week
  2. I have used RockAuto.com in the US for Chrysler parts. Their prices are far better than UK prices (assuming you can even find the part you need in the UK) and their shipping is scarily fast. You have to look for Chrysler Town & Country parts, but they are exactly the same as the UK Grand Voyager. My latest RockAuto purchase was a Brake Fluid level sensor for my 2008 Grand Voyager. Ordered on Saturday, arrived Wednesday. Not bad! Cheers, Vince
  3. Hi All, I have recently part-exed my 2006 Grand Voyager for a 2008 Gen 5 version. One thing the Gen 4 car did was chirp the security siren when you locked the car with a door still open. I found that the 2008 car does not do the same so I started digging to see whether this was normal behaviour or something was wrong. I scanned the fault codes and discovered the ITM module is reporting a U110D code, which says it has lost communication with the security siren. So here's the question - does anyone know where the siren is located? I think it is just below the passenger-side headlamp unit, and you need to take off the front bumper cover to get to it. If someone can confirm this, or has experienced the same problem I would be very keen to hear from you. Cheers, Vince
  4. Anyone had the same problem - orange lights above door mirror don't go out after locking. I assume these will drain battery!
  5. Hi All, I have just purchased a 2008 Chrysler Grand Voyager Limited. I have been a Grand Voyager owner since 2001, but this is my first 5th Generation car. I have two minor head-scratching issues which I am struggling to understand. One - the TPMS tyre pressure display on the dashboard is showing in Bar, rather than PSI, but I cannot find the way to change it to PSI. It is not affected by changing the Personal Settings units from Metric to U.S. Two - when I set the display units to U.S., the interior climate display changes to Fahrenheit OK, and things like distance to empty show in miles as expected, but the outside temperature display on the dash (next to the compass direction) remains in Centigrade. I can't find anything relevant in the handbook, so does anyone have any thoughts or solutions? Many thanks, Cheers, Vince

    Rain leak

    Hi all, I have a water leak on my 2012 LTD. Headlining at the rear on LHS just inside the tailgate is wet. Presume it is rain as the rear washer jet is still working. Had a look but couldn't see anything obvious. Put a bit of silicone around the tailgate hinge mount just in case but rain still seems to be getting in. Does anyone have any suggestions? Are the rubber strips on the roof clipped in or are they just in a sealed trench? Just wondering if there are mounting holes underneath it. Is it difficult to remove if necessary? Cheers Delta brothers Belated happy new year
  8. Okay I’ve sorted it myself. Unbelievably it was a Bluetooth unit plugged into the cigarette lighter beside the ashtray, remember them. Spent hours running through what had been replaced that may affect the TPMS display and other associated features and finally came down to what I thought was madder than a bucket of frogs! A new BT unit for the phone. Removed it and instantly all the dash fault lights went out and as long as I don’t have it plugged in all is fine. Oh well, back to the earbuds I suppose.
  9. Hi All Happy New Year. I firstly want to thank you for all your help. I have done the Thermostat-into-the-hose mod and the temperature resistor mod for the charging circuit and I managed to find a complex parasitic battery leak problem, all using your excellent forum and I couldn't be more grateful!!! All this as a non-mechanic! Anyway... I am having to spray 'easy start' into my Voyager to get it to start. I'm too afraid to to remove the Glow Plugs in case I snap them off or something. -Not an accomplished car maintenance person. Anyway.. I remove this little black cap and spray into the hole. It's kinda half blocked and I wondered what it's for and if I should be doing it....?
  10. Hi @RichardM Well it's 2 months in, and so far loving the new motor! We've not done too many miles, but it is jolly well very, very, nearly as comfortable on a 120 mile run as the Voyager, but smoother, quieter, and more powerful, with very similar handling, and even more spacious! A new toy for me to buy trinkets for!
  11. Hi Anybody know of or experienced the following issue with the TPMS display on a 2006/7 or older 300C The issue: Turn the car on go into systems and car display showing all four tyre pressure levels. All pressures showing as per normal for the size of tyre. Drive a few miles and the nearside left display disappears and the warning chime and light start going off. Drive a few more miles and one by one they all go out and the chime starts to drive you mad. Stop the car, turn the ignition off, restart the engine and all four tyre displays are back as per normal. Drive a few miles and the whole process begins again. I’ve checked all the batteries in the TPMS units with a scanner and all are good. I do have, if the readings can be trusted, a very slow leak on the near side rear but re-inflating to correct level has no beneficial effect and the problem described above continues. I assume it could be a receiver issue rather than a TPMS sender issue ? But if so, can you even get/buy the module, which I’m told sits behind the dash near the ignition switch/key, not checked that yet but thats what I've been told. I’ve also been told it's possible to disable the damn system with something called a ‘Star Reader” whatever that might be. No work has been done to the car recently in relation to tyres, I did replace all of the glow plugs a few weeks ago but cant imagine they would, in any way, have an effect on the TPMS system! But stranger things happen at sea and all that. Any help would be great.
  12. Looking on eper, there is a fair choice of springs across all variants & we didn't get all of them in the UK. Specifically the 1.8 twin turbo & I don't think any with damper control (I assume that's Skyhook). It takes a bit of deciphering but I think the plus sign in the options means with (obvs), the exclamation mark means without. I don't know your car or what springs you fitted (mine is a 1.4 MA SR & I fitted 1.4 Bravo rears & they made no difference, but I haven't had to do a front yet) but I suppose it is possible to affect the ride height on the strength / length of the spring. Say if you had a heavier 2.0 diesel car but fitted the 120hp petrol springs. I remember from my amateur motorsport days, if a version was available diesel springs & components were often a simple way to beef up a 'standard' car for rough stuff, extra ride height & durability etc. I have lost ride height on other cars with broken springs, damaged lower spring platforms & knackered top mounts but you say all your items are good. Have a look at this link & see if you can decipher which springs you should have. Part number 12 obviously, hover over the circled 'i' and you should see the applications. If you click on a part number, then the 'drawings; word on the next page it will tell you if it's shared with anything else Fiat / Lancia / Alfa. For instance, part number 5 (top pad) is Stilo, Bravo II & Delta. https://eper.fiatforum.com/en/Drawings/Detail/L/L/DEL/TN/443/1/20/0/SubSubGroup

    Momo Design

    I guess the problem with mobile websites is you don't get to see the dates, Sept 2023, or other useful info, like how many posts the OP made, a whole 1. I'm gonna reckon he's not around, pretty much like anybody on this site anymore
  14. Don't reckon it helps 18 months after.......
  15. Hi, Is anyone else’s Delta very low at the front after coil spring replacements? I have replaced the springs numerous time, first with original Delta springs which were very expensive £178 a corner and then subsequently with Bravo springs which were much cheaper. Although I believe they vary in length so maybe I went for the smaller options available? However, with the Bravo springs the car is very very low. As low as Lamborghini! Anyone experienced this. My mechanic suggests it’s the springs that correlate to the height profile. Dampners and Shock absorbers all ok. He mentioned it could be the tensile strength of the springs of the bravo not being strong enough over time for the heavier Delta? Any advice or suggestions on springs to buy or things to check welcomed.

    Momo Design

    Hi Johnny My brother has just acquired a white MOMODESIGN in White. Has yours got the e white roof or black? Hes changing all the badges over too. Has the same problem with the nav - fitted a GPS antenna from Amazon and that worked for a while. My neighbour had a delta with this same issue. He’s bought another nav unit (will change the front so it’s black) but it wants a master code - anyone know how to get this? WHO ELSE HAS A DELTA S MOMODESIGN? Would love to know how many are still going. This one is originally from Ireland.
  17. Hi. I'm hoping there is till users on this site as in a dilemma. My Sebring was broken into and the thief had tried to hotwire the car, photos are attached ( 1st image is of small black box cables are going into, 2nd image is of connector coming out of bottom left side of under car, 3rd image is of same cable and of wires, 4th is of wires loose , that go into box on 1st image, these wires need to be re connected somewhere, 5th image is of cable that has been ripped free from wiring of car and was loose) of mess i found when i went out in the morning. Now why they couldn't i suspect was because battery had dies as hadn't been used in over a week as 2nd car, so no life in it and they just left, i got metal out of ignition and key barrel works fine by look, but obviously with wires ripped out and mess in total its not trying to start. I've looked on YouTube and other forums for this , just a diagram of where wires need to go back into or what needs to be done to be repaired back to how it was, being as battery was dead i don't think fuses or anything will be blown. a video or pictures of wiring from another Sebring owner ( Mine is UK 2009 Sebring convertible) with same car would be fantastic and can use to put mine back to as it was. Any help would be a real help! really appreciate anything in advance.

    Delta for sale

    I have for sale my 2012 Delta 1.4 petrol. The car is now for sale as spares or repairs as it has failed its MOT and my new car arrives this week. The car is in Renfrewshire and is available to view anytime as I work from home. I've had the car for 4 years and it has never let me down. If you want to check the MOT status (list of failures ) the reg is PF12 GYS. Cheers Steve
  19. The main reason for losing the old girl is the lack of support (and diagnostic tools) available. I am sure the problem could have been resolved for a few hundred pounds if dealer level support was around but it ain't. Think I'm going to have to resort to common or garden makes from now on. I don;t require the versatility of the Gv, will have to suffer lack of comfort or give the DVLA around £700.00 per year RFT for something big, but there again my wife wouldn't drive anything that big (Fancy a Merc SUV !! ) but what ho, will probably end up with petrol Kuga - don't fancy anything with a particulate filter thing as majority of trips are of insufficient mileage to keep it clean. Ho hum... Best of luck with your new beast. Richard
  20. Yes pal, we are the last of the old guard!! Haha, it took me a year to let go of the one that had a TCM to BCM comms fault, bit less attached to this one, been a pain in the backside! I will still keep looking on here though! It had a very fixed deadline of November 23rd, as it's MOT expired that day, and a nice chap took it a week before. We went to look at a Toyota Vellfire the day after, private seller, did a deal and picked it up last Friday! We had been talking to the local import dealer, but they mucked us around, first spoke to them in April, and get the feeling they thought they had us "over a barrel" because we had told them about that deadline. We specified we wanted a service history - if I was paying good money I certainly did - but they then lied and said they don't come with records for "privacy", but never said this in the last 6 months!! Some other dealers adverts had history, but not on the spec of car we wanted, so we fired them off! It's bigger, well taller, but not longer, than the Voyager by quite a bit, do I recall you are a tall bloke, if so you may want to consider one of these, Alphards or Vellfires. They are all Jap imports, 2.4 or 3.0 or 3.5 petrol, and wow it's lovely! This one has been converted to LPG by the only UK owner, which is something we would have done!
  21. Sorry to hear of your GV's demise. Mine's parked in the back garden SORNed - still trying to be brave enough to let her go. (The like doesn't mean I like the info) Commiserations, I think you and I are (were) the last of the Mohicans... all the best
  22. Hi to the very few people who come here! Our Voyager has finally had enough, and went for parts to a lovely chap last week! I wish him well, and good luck, he'll need it! Cheers guys!!
  23. Hi there! Don't know why the rear doors are playing up, but try removing the IOD fuse for 20 minutes, quite often resets some things. That protrusion on the door, is linked to the petrol flap, to stop the door opening if the flap is open being filled.
  24. Hi, I have a 2006 Grand Voyager 3.3 Could anyone identify the part (picture attached) that protrudes from the near side inner door frame, slides up and down and engages with a pin that protrudes from the rear of the door assembly when closed. This is only on the passenger side of a RHD UK car. I am having the following issues that could all be related and would like to eliminate this lever. Both rear doors do not operated electronically Single beep from the alarm when arming Any ideas and thoughts very welcome. Thank you.
