    DPF fault? - if you have a dpf that is. Is the car down on power? Is the turbo kicking in?

  4. Front washer pipe

    I've had a quick google and those connectors seem to leak more because the pipe is corrugated. The split is right on the bend too :(. Going to give tape a try when its dryer outside. Thanks H

  12. Is my gearbox on the way out?

    no oil change has been done. i'll try and record the sound but i only have my phone doubt thats going to prove worthwhile. Appriciate your help badger mate. Oh and to correct myself - the noise (whirring/whine) is only when accelerating in any gear (not sure on first as im not there long...
  13. Is my gearbox on the way out?

    Clutch and DMF was done about 2 years ago. Not too long after that i started to have the odd (5th gear mostly) noise from the box but this paired with the fact that i very rarely use 5th cast it to the back of my mind. Its always hard trusty a independent garage (even on recommendation) as...
  14. Is my gearbox on the way out?

  18. Things to look for when buying an Ibiza FR TDi?

    Dual mass fly wheel, has it been replaced? Look for shaking when idle in nuteral for tell tail signs of it coming to the end of its life. Make sure both door switches work - i.e. does the interiror light come on when the door is opened with ignition on - the switch is a pain int he **** to...
  19. Is my gearbox on the way out?

    Theres nothing noticeable about gear changes dead spots or shiifter movement/play. Its mostly when cold it gets a little noisy, after a drive its just a humming noise from the gear which matches RPMs. I'm just looking for a gear box centre around the Wolverhampton area.. :( Thanks H
  20. Is my gearbox on the way out?

    right then chaps. its a 1.9tdi, 2006 its done 70,000 miles. Gearbox oil level? (how would i check this - i have willing if not the know how). Idle nothing, it only seems to be in 2nd and perhaps 3rd when rolling in gear - i have no doubt synchro for 5th has gone because its very...
