Hi Shifting to 3 is safe at speed it's a bit like using the kick down but using L I would advise from stationary as it uses 1st gear for a long time then shifts to second. It's almost like a get you moving gear but not at speed.

What car are you selling as you don't say ?

Hi Definitely the battery had very similar problem new battery fitted never had a problem since. Turns out battery had just died due to being quite old charged it ok for a few days then same thing again rac confirmed battery.

Thanks for the replies all.sorted now sourced a comline ekf351a pollen filter perfect fit. Job done?

Hi all I have a 57 plate 2.8 crd & want to change the pollen filter inside the cabin. I know where the filter is & how to remove it but the problem I have is replacing the old filter with a new one. Which filterbis the right one? I have measured the old filter but on eBay & Euro parts the filter they say fits is a different size someone please help me. The size fitted is 301 x 200 x 23 the one they all say fits is 308 x 236 x 23.

Hi I'm sure there was a post on here with similar issues turned out to be the fuel pressure regulator valve. Got to be worth a shot rather than spending hundreds getting the injectors checked they are about £40 on good old eBay. Mark

The item number is 281285838679 priced at £79.50 with free p&p sorry couldn't fit it in my last post. Mark

I just bought a syphon pump from halfords £3.99 (hand pump one) empty the header tank first then do the thermostat.

Would recommend to anyone with a 2.8crd do both the fixes it definitely works. Thanks to Andy for the detailed video well done.

Hi all Did the battery mod & in line thermostat fix 2 weeks ago. Wow what a difference especially the battery mod starter whizzes round on a morning & car starts much quicker & thermostat fix puts the pre heater light out so much sooner

Well I was only going by the description & that said has a 10mm centre hole to fool.the ecu in to not throwing up any codes. If that works on not I don't know but would be intrested to find out.

Hi Did you get the one with a small 10mm hole in? As that says no codes thrown up as it fools the ecu.

Hi If you check on eBay they already have a custom made blocking plate item number 322094535462 for about a fiver it's designed so no codes should be thrown up. Not sure if that's true though.

Hi Yes the engine management light does come on in limp mode. Had it happen to me a year or so ago turned out to be a sticky relay all sorted by chrysler & £150 lighter for the pleasure.

Hi all Can you please tell me the thermostat model number a friend said it was for a Renault 5 is this correct?

No when I push the handle no noise at all.

Hi all For some strange reason I can not open my tailgate by hand using the handle but if I use the key fob (electric tailgate) it will open any suggestion will be of help. I have done the positive off the battery reset for about 40 mins but no change. Also the tailgate opens using the key in the lock or have I got it wrong & the 2 ways to.open it is by fob or key?

Hi I found this on eBay 301755774957 is the item number it may help you the price might put you off though. Regards Mark

Hi Ebay class 04-07 as mk3 it's very confusing. But if you stick to mk3 the parts you order will be the right ones always include your registration so they can check it's correct. So far I have ordered many bits for my 07 with no problems in the parts being incorrect. Hope this helps. Regards Mark

Sorry about delay in telling how the problem was sorted. A friend suggested opening the tailgate manually several times thinking this may sort the problem.I tried this & it did make a small difference. So after reading other posts about resetting other items by disconnecting the battery in tried that & to my surprise it seemed to work although on the first opening of the tailgate using the key it seemed to make no difference. So I left it for a short time & tried again & to my surprise it worked tailgate opening & closing as it should do not too sure what the reset had done but all is now good.

Thanks all for your help tailgate all sorted now.

Hi all Does anyone have any idea how to reset the electric tailgate as mine seems to have adopted a mind of its own. Using the key the tailgate opens fully then starts to close until about half way back down then stops and if use the key fob again it opens fully then completely closes your help would be much appreciated.
