Bought this kit off Ebay, and came sealed and complete with wiring for the sensors (common-rail sensors, quantity control valve, injectors, boost pressure and temperature) and the two boxes (control unit and injector module) + a 10 page fitting instructions.
All in all a fairly straightforward installation (removing the injector connectors was a royal PITA, though!) except the final step: connecting to the temperature sensor, which has me stumped:
According to the instructions the temperature sensor is near the gearbox and oil pan screw, and measures the DPF temperature. I assume that this means having to remove the underbody plastic covers but as I don't have a lift or ramps, I would need to take it to a garage for this part.
Anyone care to hazard a guess if the car can be driven (haven't tried to start it yet) without the temperature sensor connected or would I need to get some ramps and try to have a go at this?
