So I finally got a picture of the universal cam locking tool but could not get a good picture of the front of each hub yet. I will get one later. By that time though I think I will have taken everything apart again. I was just trying to avoid removing the timing belt again and then messing somethin...

I managed to break the plastic connector in the fuel hose at the fuel filter (coming from the pump). Although a (barely) adequate splice can be made in the fuel hose to the filter using a Dorman fitting, I've decided to attempt to replace the fuel line from the pump to the filter with a OEM hose. I...

Fir a 90 mile run, I would leave it home and beg a ride from someone to the rental. You don't need a breakdown this week. God Bless and good luck with surgery. Cymru! So I got my surgery after renting a car, got home and my neighbor installed the coil I bought previous to the trip. Car runs great n...

I have CEL , cannot read codes vadis has a date conflict on loading. No response on the vadis forum, just out...

Computer date shows 2009. Can I just change the date..to? I have to drive 4 hrs for surgery on monday, c...

Also may try this Don't drive with a misfire, at worst disconnect the injector on that cylinder at the very least (but don't drive uphill or accelerate too much) Don't forget to pull and inspect the spark plugs as see if the top of the engine gets too hot (even if the gauge stays at 12) https://www...

If you do get to pulling coils, make sure the M6 bolt (10mm socket) is tight and clean each time you test/install the coil. Its also the secondary ground so it has to be a good electrical connection to work. You can also pull all the plugs, label them, and look for signs of misfire. I honestly don'...
