Hi all, first post as a new vivaro. After only one week of ownership had to have new turbo fitted and water pipe that runs across front of engine at a cost of £800. Now have a problem with wipers. When you use screenwash the wipers wipe all the time that you are spraying water but when you stop they stop at the top of the screen and you have to turn them on till they reach the bottom off screen and turn off whilst at the bottom. Could this be a problem with the motor or is it a relay...

Hello all,
I have a 2003 vivaro 1.9. I hit a big pothole in the road and the airbag light has come on. I have checked the connection under the seat and they seem OK, also I have connected opcom and I have no fault codes?
When I had a loose connection before opcom would come up with pretensioner fault.
When I start the van the light disappears and comes on in about 4 seconds.
I am stumped and would appreciate any ideas.
Thanks

The engine is a reconditioned one fitted September last year, the noise only happens after about 2 miles when you accelerate over 2.5 to 3 thousand revs only lasts for about 2 minutes, then nothing the engine otherwise runs as sweet as a nut you can stop and start it all day and nothing but the next day it will do it all again doing my head in! the sound reminds me of an old vw air...

Ok, i have a 2007 2.0 cdti vivaro that wont rev above 2300rpm at this point it drops down to around 1500 then climbs again, the harder i accelerate the quicker the cycle..
Tested the injectors with Bosch they are all ok, replaced Maf, Camshaft and Crankshaft sensor along with another one and still the same problem. There are no engine lights on at all or fault codes as such other than Tec2 or whatever its called says there is no power being supplied to the injectors for the second stage...

I've had the van a week now and on two mornings the radio has come on with the time saying 00:00 and also the trip meter on the dash has returned to zero as though I had pressed the reset.
the van has started no problem so I don't believe its the battery.
its only happened on 2 out of 7 days, (Friday and Monday) any ideas?
thanks in advance

Eveing all,
I'm new to the forum and a new owner of a 2007 swb Vivaro.
My biggest and most annoying problem is a flashing fuel gauge. I've spent so much time googling it but can't seem to find any information from anyone that actually resolved the problem. I've done the dash reset and it does stop the flashing for a short time before it starts again. I've disconnected the cable from the sender on the tank and this made no difference.
Can anyone shed some light on the cause of this, it's...

I have the couple of lights on the dash, codes are-
P0409 exhaust gas recirculation sensor A circuit
P0340 camshaft position sensor A circuit bank 1 or single sensor
P0380 glow plug / heater circuit A
It's had a new cam sensor and egr valve so is it likely to be a damaged wire somewhere causing the problems? Van runs without a fault, smooth and quiet.

Hi all,
Ive'recently had a new fuel pump fitted on my 57 reg vivaro 2.0cdti.
It starts and drives fine, but the digital fuel gauge is flashing and does not show how much fuel there is in the system.
The garage have put their diagnostics on and no fault code, but the battery was off for about 3 weeks, whilst repairs where carried out.
Does anyone know how to cure this ? Or will it reset once I start driving the van again.
It was working fine before, so I dont think its the cluster.
Any...

Sorry to ask a question that I,m sure has been asked so many times but here goes.
Stop and Bty light came so after checking volt at alternator(only 12v's) bought replacement.
Here's my problem: stripped front down the can see the tensioning contraption but worried about which way and how much effort needed to move it. I've read threads that have said clockwise and just keep tension off with one hand and remove/refit belt with other. Sorry again to ask this but don't want to end up busting...

I thought I'd recap on the whole scuttle fix thing as from what I've been reading on here it would appear that some of you are missing the point about what the cause is.
The cause is NOT the bonding seal underneath the scuttle tray that you need to fix / gun a load of silicone into. This seal is there just to stop metal to metal contact!!!
The cause is the windscreen edge of the scuttle where the fault occurs. You need to seal / extend this edge so it reaches underneath the windscreen when...

Afternoon all,
I have a 2003 1.9 Vivaro. In the past few months I have had starting problems which I think I solved with a clean of the blue connector in the engine bay fuse box.
I was driving yesterday on the A1 doing 65-70 in wet conditions when the engine lost all power, like it went into limp mode (but no warning light), in fact it was worse than limp mode, i slowly lost speed, going through the gears and pulled into a layby.
I stopped the engine to have a look under the bonnet for...
Engine starts then cuts out and won't restart.

I disconnect ed the central locking button to see if that was the cause but it wasnt as it still locked itself. Has anybody has any problems...
