Thanks for the replies! I'm a bit worried about what pkc303 said, about the drier (condensor in the uk i think), but if it works it works, if it don't well I will just get someone in to do it! I have never messed with a/c in this depth before! I have another compressor to put on, the one on the car ...

What is the number of the fram filter you are talking about? Maybe a Mahle alternative will help, if you give me the year, engine size and model, along with any engine codes, I can run a check on what is best for your motor. I work in the car filtration business, so I am more that happy to help with...

Hi all, My AC compressor is not cutting in, I have come to the conclusion that the pump or clutch in it has seized, so I have purchased a working one, now all I need to do is fit it! Is there any hints or tips of possible problems in doing this? I'm sure it will be a simple operation on my T5, but I...

Hi Lee, We took her out for a good run the other day, and the blower worked all the way, I'm talking 2-3 hours, and in that journey we kept on sliding the blower to different speeds, and it didn't offer to stop at all. Yet, I got in it the next morning and throughout the day, and it cut out almost e...

Here is my rather dirty (after the snow), but beautiful 850 T5! I'll show you what she looks like after a good clean up! Nearly 184,000 miles on the clock and she don't miss a beat, never lets me down and drives perfectly! She is used to being in a garage sitting on carpet, but here she is out in th...

Hi all, again! *sniff* My beloved baby 850 T5 on a '94 plate has yet another complaint, she wants me to freeze!!! After starting her up, she blows warm air at me great, then sometimes (not all the time, but most of the time) the blower will stop and will not come on again until you stop the engine a...

Actually, you saying that about the ignition switch, the abs and tracs lights come on sometimes for a while, and also after starting the vehicle you have to bring the key back a touch so that it engages the lights etc, otherwise the car will run and you will have no electrics. So the the ign switch ...

Thanks very much, I'll look into it a bit later and report on what I find!

Thanks again both!

Wig!

Hi all, I have an 850 T5 on a 1994 (english year M) auto box, and the reversing lights only flash on when you jiggle the selector up and down between park and reverse, but they will not stay on. Any thoughts? The switch will be working as they wouldn't even flash on if it was broken. Is there any ad...

Hi, I seem to have the same problem, ish! I have just bought a 1994 850 T5 from my step dad, and the blower inside the car will work fine for ages, then all of a sudden, just turn off and not work again until you turn the ignition off and back on again, also the A/C doesn't seem to engage, I have re...
