| I had my vacuum pump replaced some time ago. It was leaking oil all over the gearbox, and then down to the floor just at front driver's side wheel (LHD). |

@charisme1
I ordered the extension from the same company in Italy (I think that the extension box is appr. 5cm). No problem with the strength and durability as I have it for 7 years and 210.000Km.

I think that is a bit low. I ordered an extension box for the top part.

It was a recall action for that 3-4 years ago. I had the small tube replaced. If the leak is bad will cause alternator to malfunction.
Better to check with an official dealer. |

Hi Jaaph, thanks for the quick answer. I had in mind the screws but I didn't think of the clips.  |

| Jaaph, I am thinking of doing the outer dash speakers on my midline stereo, since they work straight away. The LR001694 package has both speakers in it, or do I have to order 2xLR001694? |

Thanks Slaneydore,
I think I will clean the sensor, and then we will see if it will go back to normal. The only thing I don't understand is why to cause only the p0171 and not the p0174 as well. |

| I think that this has been covered before. I recall that using a fine sandpaper between the leather and the plastic (abrasive area to the plastic side) resolves the squeaking issue. |
