You are probably right, I have just discovered the M1.3 diagram, that the manual does confirm later 16V and TZi models (though there are discrepancies in the wording, and the actual diagrams on the supplement pages). Anyhow, I am sure a good forensic scientist could identify which wire ties up from ...

hmm, but I can't see how each wire is connected in this . Problem is that my wires are broken at the point where they enter the engine room, probably thanks to a rodent. :evil: So i need a diagram where you can see what pin of the ECU connects to what sensor and to what wire specific on that sensor...

My mate did a very good job in situ, by cleaning up the rough parts with wire wool, then a toothbrush and solvol, gunk to clean off, finally spraying with lacquer used on motorcycle exhausts. Total cost was about 4 hours work and under £15.

I was offered one of the AX GTs last week for a good price. Short MOT and tax, and clean inside/out, with the original wheels as well. Problem was the extreme rust and missing metal around the windscreen, rot in the l/h A pillar, and some holes under the rear l/h window, above the wheel arch. Is the...

Having used a couple of Mitsubishis, I would suggest the earlier ones were far better. THe Galant (1999) and Warrior (2004) have both had serious issues with build quality and worse still the dealer servicing. Faults with wheel studs shearing, headlight wires fusing, clutches disintegrating, as well...

Damn, just got rid of my diesel estate. Would have probably run for ever, absolutely zero wear on the engine/gearbox parts, and the chassis was solid.

Did it ever get sold ? I may have a friend who is in need of something cheap (he wouldn't take my old BX estate though, so he also has a bit of taste) :lol: He used to have a 328 (E) ?, and loved it until bending it on the bollards on the north end of Hammersmith bridge. We spent a couple of hours s...

Congratulations on the car Marx-7 Our local garage has passed my last two BXs without difficulty, (after one or two places have failed them on non failable things), usually adjusting small bits like headlight beam without asking. Anything that looks suspicious goes onto the warning list of the certi...
