Buy the correct tool...they dont cost much

Window would cost more than a tail light and he may not be able to fold his seats down. A lesson to be learned here.....OWN TWO KEYS FOR YOUR CAR

If you know where the keys are in the trunk. Break the closest tail lamp and go in from there. Make sure you can buy a new tail light though. Or you will just have to wait for the key. In NZ we have to order the keys from Germany. They are coded to the car by chassis number. I would talk to a technician at the dealership first though, but I'm sure thats going to be the only way.

You could temporarily keep pin 30 & 87 bridged to get everything else sorted and deal with that problem later. If you cant figure out the wiring fault yourself. Just remember to unplug it when you stop the engine and never drive on the roads like that.

(1) Youve got the hoses around the wrong way...pressure goes into the rail and the regulator maintains constant pressure in the rail and returns excess fuel to the tank. (2) Best get a sparky to check that out. You may not be getting a signal for the relay. Is it 4/5 pin or tachometric ??

I would say from your explanation that it is the L/H door central lock motor playing up....needs to be checked properly

I'll grandstand with a couple of beers and watch the action... this could be fun BTW: Welcome to the forum Styler...enjoy !!!

I have reservations

Remove both belts and check all the idler and tensioner bearings. Also check for play in the water pump and make sure the alternator, and AC pump pulley spins freely. Also ensure they are genuine belts ( the right size) for the tensioners to work properly. Best way is to use a stethescope to isolate where the noise is coming from.

As said before...we are only human. And I doubt that the vanos unit would have been replaced if you had booked it in with them and given them a reasonable amount of time to do a proper diagnosis. Their standards are high, and most of us in the industry try to maintain high standards , however we can make mistakes. Its not always easy when you are busy and have things on your mind, and someone comes to the door expecting instant diagnosis or quick answers. And there is always two sides to a story. Bottom line is...you didnt spend any money, its all sorted now, just move on, there is no one to blame. Guido's a great guy and the workshop does quality work. I really dont like seeing these crucifiction threads.

Yes I agree...thats why I mentioned it. I wouldnt take the risk with any waxstat type thermostat

Is this more appropriate then ?? A Somalian arrives in Auckland as a new immigrant to New Zealand He stops the first man he sees walking down the street and says, 'Thank you for letting me in this country, giving me housing, free medical care and free education!' The man says, 'You are mistaken, I am Pakistani.' The Somali man goes on and encounters another passer-by. 'Thank you for having such a beautiful country here in New Zealand' This person says, 'I not Kiwi, me Chinese man.' He walks on and stops the next person, shakes his hand and says, ' Thank you for the wonderful things in New Zealand!' This person puts up his hand and says, 'I am from Tonga, I am not a Kiwi' Finally, he sees a nice lady and asks, 'Are you Kiwi?' She says,' No, I am from Korea!' Puzzled, he asks her, 'Where are all the Kiwi people?' The Korean lady checks her watch and says ... > > > > > > > > ' Probably at work or picking up the dole if they are unemployed!! '
