euroriffic 607 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) Gave the touring a full service last night, all new filters, sparkies, oil, waterpump, thermostat, coolant and drive belts. Unfortunently I managed to rip one of the leads off trying to get it off, it was like it was melted in there! Twisting it till it "clicks" and then pulling it seemed the way to do it. Trick for young players I guess Today I need to fix the central locking issue which it keeps blowing fuses when you lock/unlock it after fitting two replacement solenoids. And fit my BS stickers if they show Edited May 4, 2012 by euroriffic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greg111 13 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 Today I need to fix the central locking issue which it keeps blowing fuses when you lock/unlock it after fitting two replacement solenoids.Larger fuse, put a 5 amp more fuse in, have had this problem and been advised by our diag to do so. Either that or you have a f**ked sololoid that's putting strain on the electrics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either that or you have a f**ked sololoid that's putting strain on the electrics. Yea I thought since the replacements had been sitting round might of been a bit sticky so upped it from 7.5 to 15 to try clear it but still blew so have to pull each plug off until I find which one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both need doing sure can. it can do a few different types of SI reset, I did it twice on the E34, but it shows all green bars? maybe thats just what E34's do.

I've had the car 3 months so after I reset it last week it hasn't changed at all - It's completely different to my E30 one. Cheers Greg. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
