    Mass Air Flow Sensor

    Hi Sorcerer,

    You are correct that when a MAF goes faulty it usually just affects the running and not create a non-start situation.

    I would go back to basics and work out why it went wrong in the first place and check the fundamentals (battery feed and EARTH cables, fuel feed, condition of ignition components, etc).

    Hope you find the fix

    Window control and removing the door panel

    Hi Amy...welcome to the forum!

    I can't find any specific videos to follow to remove the door panel but would advise pulling at the panel until the plastic 'pop out' but do NOT apply too much force to end up breaking the panel or any of the clips.  You will also find a few screws (some hidden) but usually they are situated in areas where is more secure than just clips holding it in place.

    If in doubt, maybe worth taking it to a garage who shouldn't charge you too much.

    Hi Didz,

    I would suggest that you have a driveline fault which I would take into a reputable garage to inspect all relevant components...shafts, joints, etc

    Better to tackle it now rather than it break completely which could be a lot more expensive.

    wing mirror indicator replacement

    Hi Kevin...welcome to the club!

    Found some info about the procedure but beware...most of the people attempting this procedure ended up breaking the mirror glass so may be worth letting the dealers/specialists do it as it may be cheaper than replacing a broken mirror glass?

    Put a piece of cardboard against the bottom edge of the mirror housing, then use a filling knife or similar against the cardboard, and carefully ease the mirror glass out, watch out for the heated wire/terminals, remove them from the glass.
    You should now see the screws that hold the lens in, i think they're torx fitting?
    Carefully remove the screws, and the lens should come out.
    Reverse of above to re-assemble 

    Mirror glass will pop out, but just dont make the mistake i did and got to heavy handed with it and it cracked!
    once the mirror is out the way then you will see the torx bits that hold everything together, also there is a torx screw on the underside of the wing mirror housing right near where it connects to the swivle arm that holds it to the truck. once all the torx bits are out then the mirror bracket should swing (or if you have electric folding mirrors, hit the button to close them) inwards and leave the housing in place making for easy access to the puddle lamp and indicator housing!

     

    Good luck, and let us know how you get on

    Hi Rob...welcome to the Forum!

    Firstly, I would take the car to have all four wheels aligned, as some of the symptoms you describe could be coming from the rear end being misaligned.

    Secondly, I would try some additive and give the engine a good clear out (at legal speed limits :-) to try to clean up the intake system which could cure the idle issue.
