  1. @@03GVCRD i couldnt find any on ebay could you post a link please?
  2. Hope someone can help with this. A while back whilst unloading my 2006 GV i caught the rear park assist and ripped it out!! After trying to repair it seems the plastic plug that connects the wires to the unit is damaged. I have found the same part is sued on Mercedes as well (part number A 029 545 55 28) i have emailed dealers and had no joy. In USA they are $1.41 but wont ship to uk. In europe they are around 7 euro but want nearly 30 euros for shipping!! Does anyone know where i might get one from?
  3. Mike its a brand new battery and the voltage is fine, alternator output is fine. I always manage to get it started just after multiple attempts in the cold. All last summer it was fine.
  4. Right, after all this time (and money) i'm no further down the line. Had new glow plugs fitted and relays checked, new filter housing and filter (the one on the engine with primer pump fitted), new pressure relief valve, injectors and rail checked. Still bad starting when cold!!! Local garage struggling to find what else it could be? The car has done less than 70,000 miles and is in great condition so dont really want to get shut but its looking more likely the best way to go.
  5. Hi all, i have a 2006 Grand Voyager 2.8crd, last winter it became very difficult to start (3 or 4 attempts every morning) and i presumed it was glow plugs, never bothered getting them done and during the summer months fired up 1st time everytime. Now back in winter difficulties started again, this only happens in the morning, if I drive to work it wont struggle to start again all day even if left for 8 hours! , so i took it in to a garage and had the glow plugs replaced, no difference!! So this week after some advice i bought a new fuel pressure relief valve and fitted it yesterday. Primed the system back up and it fired up (took a couple of attempts) all seemed fine, went out last night and was travelling along about 20 - 30mph and then put my foot down and nothing, engine cut out and i coasted to a halt. Left it for 30 seconds and it started again no problem, this happened a few times on my way back home. Today i have refitted the old releif valve and it has stopped the cutting out??? Can anyone help as to how I can sort this or do I have to put with either bad starting or cutting out? Many thanks
