well you will need to dis connect it to replace it, maybe there's a procedure?

I used the Aux Battery in the boot as a power supply on my E250 and it works fine. I also located the unit in the space next to the battery The kit i had included a fuseable lead so all is good. The kit i used also senses whether the tail / Brake lights are activated from a single cable so...

I didnt loose any oil from the pipes when disconnecting them. I keep thinking i should have injected half a litre of additional oil into the pipes to replace what was lost by the leak, but all seems well some 20K miles later

Thanks again I have no excuse now but to pull the bumper off and get on with it :oops:

Thank you so much for the swift reply. The relay Kit that came with the towbar says that it is smart, so fingers crossed Mine also is only be a 7 pin connector, mainly for a bike rack. Id appreciate the wiring diagram for the third brake light. That piece of information alone has probably...

Hey Bill did you get an answer to the wiring setup? I have to do the same thing and have a universal bypass relay which came supplied with the tow bar.. instructions are minimal Thanks

I have an Icarsoft V2 with 10 manufacturers coverage and lifetime updates free, Its OK, but updates seem to have stopped and it is a bit clunky so i tried the Autel LD710, (JLR Only in my case but there is a merc version).. which is great for what it cost, ........and also now a Foxwell NT710...

Do you think you lost much transmission fluid, did you check it? I had same issue ended up replacing the cooler, never got round to checking the tranny fluid but keep wondering if i should have

Chris, same happened on my E250 it pulled the jack pad clean off. Like you i think that the jack hit a stone or something that stopped it rolling forwards, I was placing an axle stand when it went so the axle stand caught the car and the only damage was a crack to the undertray I was lucky...

I was told that they can crack internally, If you have pressure tested it then i would have thought it would be fine, and would probably do the same as you Mine has both oil in the coolant and leaking oil fairly significantly, It is in at the garage today Fingers crossed we both have a...

Broken manifold stud is common on OM651 causes intake leaks and drops into limp mode.

I have an oil cooler leak and have been advised by several sources to install a new cooler rather than just the seals, the cooler is a known failure item and seals will only work for a short time if at all OEM part is only £110 + Vat incl new seals

If you could send your settings that would be great thanks, My Email is [email protected], i will let you know if any of the PIDs are the same, its a reasonable chance that they will be as they are a similar age, ive found a couple of Jeep PIDs that work on my car, a hangover from the...

Yes I got the splitter eventually thanks, It all connects up OK and i can communicate with the ELM327 via a terminal emulator in windows, however after entering the 'AT MA' (monitor all) mode on the elm327 I don't get anything back when the Icarsoft is pulling data.. My ODB2 connector is a...

Surely an approximate figure is all it needs to be, I'm only really interested in it as my wife's car was struggling with oil dilution caused by excessive regens, she only drives locally and regens were averaging 60 miles ! I think (just a guess) that an aborted regen on her car doesnt...
