Re: Front brake calliper bolt

Thanks, it looks like it’s as it should be and the Ford technician at my local garage was mistaken.

Ford shop manual page 06-03-3 says they should be installed before installing the bolt so maybe they are supposed to have the top open to allow access to the bolt head but it seems...

Thanks

Re: Air Con accumulators/drier mod

I have a drier but need the pipe which connects it to the condenser. Would anyone have one for sale or know where I could get one made up?

Thanks, Keith

Re: Bonnet and Flash Code

Hi all, Flash Code 13 I had flash code 51 which failed the MOT. I had the thermal fuse replaced and plugged the connectors in (but did not reattach unit to the chassis). I now have flash code 13 which I assume caused the fuse to blow. One of the connectors under the driver's seat has become disattac...
