Does anyone know if its possible to fit the 806/ulysse/synergies headlights grill and bumper to a expert dispatch etc.  It looks possible if the panel that the headlights bolt to is changed as well but does anyone know for sure. Kindest regards Martin

No it doesn't appear to be, so I have temporarily byassed it with a 12v ten second timer and a suitable relay.....  Also noticed in traffic yesterday that the fan doesn't cut in...  Hopefully soon someone local from the french car forumm will run his lexia diags on it to see if the ecu is reporting any faults. I feel myself the the ecu is borked sad

Thanks again monkeynut!!  I shall try another advance solenoid as I have a really good french car breaker just a few miles from me. In the meantime I still have no glowplug light or glowplugs for that matter, it seems quite a faff to get to the glow plugs themselves so does anyone know the location of the glowplug relay?

Kindest regards Martin

Hi And thank you for taking the time to respond. I too would have preferred the old xud I do hope I don't have the hdi (gulp) I am away from the van until tomorrow evening but this is a picture of my engine. 20150718_163758_zpsht472m1g.jpg

Is there a cheapish code  reader available for these vehicles on the diy market (I hate giving money to garages)
Kindest regards martin

Hi guys.  About two weeks ago I purchased a 52 plate expert. On the drive home about 150 miles in the engine management light came on and the engine developed rather loud diesel knock. Apart from being noisy it has  been almost perfect until yesterday when the engine management light went out it wasn't until later that I noticed that my temperature gauge would read full scale three or four times then settle firmly on the left giving no reading whatsoever, furthermore at the same time I have lost my glow plug light.  I have  seen quite a few similar reports on the net of almost identical symptoms But no one has reported a fix.  Any  ideas welcome 
I believe my van to be a 1.9 turbo dw8

Kindest regards Martin
