couple of 300tdi questions

(1/3) > >>

markyb:
recently bought a m reg 300tdi ES.

one of its probs is the heater fan works on 1 and 4 and reading about ,, i gathered you can fit climate control out of a D2.  ?

2nd prob is the temp gauge not working,  ive not gone as far as shorting the cable out to rule out the sender but thought id ask while asking about other things.

3rd one is I went to tweak the fuel pump and i have this bosch round type thing bolted to to the side using 2 of the pump flange securing screws, have i got something weird there and shouldnt mess or is it a case of undo , turn the pump as normal ?

RichardM:
Mark, I don't know about one and two, but three I can answer.
The round thing is the throttle position senser for the EGR valve.  If you have blanked the EGR then you don't have to worry about it, if you haven't blanked the EGR why not?

bigedyant:
if your blower is only working on a couple of settings, then it could be the resistor has partially failed. It varies the fan speed by using different (selectable) resistances. Shouldn't be expensive/difficult to fix.

muddyjames:
my m reg 300tdi es also has funny blowers. it works on all speeds except on 4 it works for a while then cuts out and cuts back in again a few seconds later. Also if you take the key out the ignition it carries on blowing!

I think it is a feature of our breed disco!  :lol:

Disco Matt:
If anyone has fitted climate control from a Disco 2 I'd be very interested - it would be a lot of work considering the fact that the Disco 1 vent controls are purely mechanical.
