Had a go with a hot air gun and a piece of leather to press a leather texture into the softened plastic. Kinda works but the worn and good areas melt at different rates so looks a little odd at the point of difference.
Either I remove all the good surface and then try again, or try something else.
The leather texture rubber on my dispatch steering wheel is worn off.
Anyone ever found something to coat it so that your hands aren't covered with rubber dust at the end of a drive?
If the consensus if EGR, is it worth trying a clean, or just bit the bullet and get a replacement.
Labour is free as I've got the time and inclination, parts are dear, but I do want this thing fixed.
My 2011 dispatch 1.6 van has been fine with one exception.
Somewhere around 2700rpm with a bit of load, the turbo seems to engage and disengage about twice a second.
In 5th gear going up an A road hill it's very noticeable, jerking the car forward and back with the turbo audible for half a second as it pulses forward.
I have some egr fault codes, but when they were cleared, the problem was still there and it took about 3 weeks of driving for them to come back.
Just done a good MAF clean and immediately I thought I'd fixed it but 3 miles into test drive it's back (though slightly less noticeable).
What do you think? Get down to EGR (I hope not) or investigate why the MAF is dirty again? Both?
First post so hope that's enough info for you
