Thanks for letting me join!

I've just bought a MK6 135 2.4 deisel LWB van. It's my first Transit.

The previous owner had destryoed the back of the dash clocks/circuit board so having put a replacement on I've found out why! There's more faults / warning lights lit than you can shake a stick at!!

I'm hoping for some help - pretty please :o)

Oh dear! "Sell it" hurts!

It's got airbag and glow plug lights lit up (flashing). I've put a new alternator on to get the battery light out. I've repaired the temp wires on the rad and also replaced a few vacuum pipes (I assume the fan belt had snapped and torn the wires and vacuuim pipes in half).

The ABS lights aren't on though! :D I assume this is because the sensors have all been disconnected and wiring removed!! :roll:

There is oil squirting out of the driveshaft seal; the geaqrbox; and somewhere on the engine (can't get under it cos it drips in my eyes).

BUT - it's got 4 great tyres, the steering is superb AND it's a great colour (white) :D :D

I'm busy scouring previous posts on here, which I'm grateful for, but will no doubt ask some Q's very soon. I've already asked politely for Etis to be done on it (hope I get one cos it'll help loads).
