  2. They are brand new glow plugs and I have a bosch pump.
  3. could it be a faulty temperature sensor?
  4. just had a look I can see it but I don't know what I am looking for with it, what would I be checking for?
  5. will have a look tomorrow thanks for the info
  6. it does click so I assume its working.
  7. Any more info like where it is situated and how to fix it?
  8. Yes the light comes on, tried the preheat thing a couple of times and it doesn't help. I will check the relay now and let you know. The smoke does smell like diesel now that you mention it.
  9. What time and where exactly do you live? Can't come out tonight but will see you sat mate
  10. Received mine today (I missed it yesterday), thanks well worth the money !!! I am very pleased
  11. when and where is the exact meeting place dom?
  12. I have a saxo diesel that has a cold starting issue. When starting the engine you have to hold the accelerator down after about 15 seconds it will judder as if going to start and it takes about 30 seconds to eventually start. It then misfires and sometimes acts like it might cut out and it has sometimes. When it starts while holding the accelerator down I get a cloud of blue smoke. Once warm the engine will start no problem and there is no smoke at all. I know blue smoker is burning oil but why is it struggling to start, Can anyone help me. Oh forgot to mention I have given it a full service (new oil, oil filter, fuel filter, air filter and glow plugs), it has a new alternator and a new battery. I have also used redex injector cleaner.

    Air filter

    There was a thread about this yesterday. Stick with OEM others are crap, do a search as I can't be bothered to repeat it all.
  15. I've always had a soft spot for MG's http://forum.avtoindex.com/foto/data/media/57/MG_ZT-T_2001_30.jpg
  16. My biggest annoyance is I can't use the address bar as a search bar anymore !!
  17. Thieving wankers. Let us know if you find them and I am sure there are one or two members that would more be more than happy to help you to "Talk" to them. Were the tool kits in the garage ?
  18. Would you really wait 50K before cleaning it though ? I doubt it. I get what your saying but I would change / clean it once a year regardless of mileage but that's just me. My main point was if it was for performance gain it is a waste of money as there isn't any. Plus if its an oiled one won't it cover your lambda in crap? Basically there is no upside apart from a slight change in exhaust note and a whole load of down sides.
  19. I don't remember doing this ....
  20. OEM as the rest have worse filtration and you won't see any power increase from it. Regardless of what people say they are a waste of money IMO.
  21. Monaro / VXR8 or something American with a V8. A big American muscle car with a rumbling V8 is the ultimate posing car IMO.
  22. If you haven't got a receipt then you have no chance. Is there a manufacturer warranty on it? This may be your only hope.
  23. or just take a screw driver....
  24. That made me chuckle, just have visions of brad pit at the entrance dishing out the rules. You just broke all the rules ... you talked about fight club.
