Update.
So on the basis of changing the battery when I got the van, changing the smart alternator loom earlier this week and still being a fault, the decision was to change the alternator.
Horrible weather, luckily the landlord let me bring the van in my unit for my friend to do some work. This unit is my office space / studio having a manky van in here was the last thing both of us wanted I'm sure but I was stuck with a dead battery etc.
Anyway photos.
These hoses are weak and leaking. I am going to get new ones in part of a Forge silicone kit. They are definitely not helping the sluggish drive.
Intercooler off.
Old alternator off, assuming this has changed previously and probably sourced second hand.
Old vs new. Lucas unit. 130a.
Fitted.
Everything put back together.
Fitted a fine £3.99 EGR metal sheet to. No photos.
Anyway, with some time to kill we started to strip some off the interior out ready for the clean enxt week and to get the new seats fitted.
Oh it's horrible, with oil seeping through the vinyl flooring soaking the sound deadning and everything.
Enjoy.
Passenger seat out.
More grime.
Managed to get the side door to open, it had come off the runners, we have sorted it for now and copper greased this to hell.
Rear bench removed.
Drivers seat out temp to get the vinyl flooring out.
Soaked sound deadening. Both sides. passenger side was oil based. It smells worse now.
Most of this has been removed but this will be dealt with next week while being cleaned out!
Also removed the nokia phone kit finally.
Played with the stuck heating control. Stuck on windscreen found the issue but need some silicone spray to loosen it up. IF that doesn't work it will be a new cable.
Alternator was £149.50 but I am waiting on a surcharge refund, my friend only charged me £80.00. 115 miles this week. Updated PPM.
Needed a jump start, but the battery light is still on. Euros are changing the battery to another new one of the same battery but I think it is slightly too powerfull being a 110 80ah I need a 100 75ah approx.
Anyway, more updates soon.
