You are going to give a garage £1000 for NOT fixing your van? Jeez there's one born every minute! i charge you £500 to just to look at it ahahahaha and i might be able to fix it , >> Hi, hope someone can help!!

No intention of paying - just wanted some ideas on how to get the van started before I go bankrupt with no van to use for work!!! Sounds like the pump is not giving your pots the diesel to keep it going, are you near Wimbledon?if so pop in a see Watson Diesels, or ring them on 02088793584-02088793861. they are very very helpful and have time to talk to you about the problem. Cut off solenoid on top of the pump. > Hi, hope someone can help!! I have an Expert van, after a clutch was > replaced - twice - the van wont start on its own.

Does the starter motor turn and the engine just not fire up or do you get nothing? >> Hi, hope someone can help!!

New starter motor put on as they beleieved this was the problem. Engine starts on tow bump start and using 'quick start' spray - engine runs fine. Don't intend giving them any money for not curing the problem!!! > daddyfre...@gmail.com wrote: > >> Hi, hope someone can help!!

Did they replace the clutch and then find it wouldn't start? >> daddyfre...@gmail.com wrote: >> >> Hi, hope someone can help!!

If the engine doesn't turn over with the starter, despite a new starter being fitted, the earth (or lack of it) could be the problem. If it is turning over then the heater plugs sound like a candidate as it apparently goes using spray.

Another thought have you checked crank position sensor, it wont be the glow plugs cos HDI eng dont really need them except in really cold weather, it sounds to me a sensor to ecu problem , good luck anyway hope you get it sorted, regards John :) >> daddyfre...@gmail.com wrote: >> >> Hi, hope someone can help!!

Yep, had to take it back after they fitted the first clutch because of the juddering then when they replaced it - wouldn't start - think it might be the wrong sensor on the crank shaft - guess what that was changed by a Peugeot garage too!! when they removed the gearbox have they cut a cable some where? cant they get it up in the air so you and mechnic can have a good look? > daddyfre...@gmail.com wrote: > >> daddyfre...@gmail.com wrote: [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > wrong sensor on the crank shaft - guess what that was changed by a Peugeot > garage too!! Seems like a catalogue of errors. Just tell them you're going to Trading Standards. As far as I see it they are responsible for the problems and they should resolve them at their cost. I also suspect a cable problem caused when changing the clutch. Why do Peugeot dealers always end up changing the bloody ECU? And have they even changed it...hmmm. And all they needed to do was take the starter motor out and test it, not replace it. Either they're bullshitters or just incompetent trainees who have no clue apart from what their diagnostic machines tell them. |
