2.1 Td '98 High Idle And Engine Shutdown At 2000 R

In Finland we have to use the winter tires (optional with the spikes) during the snow time. And you can assist your getting going by pressing parking brake a little bit.

Overall, we are so used to snow that problems we have very rarely...

Hello!

Finally it is done! We took flywheel away once more and add thicker shim between it and crank axle. The casting of the engine block was a little bit up around the crank axle. That wwas the reason of the noice.

Now engine runs smoother and no horrible sound any more. And car goes faster! But that is not the result of flywheel repairing... Tube from turbo to cooler was a little bit loose

So, the change from manual to automatic is done. It took about 120 mhrs, but it is done!
(If we start all over the number of hours might be 40-50).

Now I can consentrate to customizing of my 2cv... And maybe I'll fix the remote control of XM's central lock too...

Hello for a long time!

I have tried to find a reason for vibration which comes when engine runs certain rpms. My guess is that flywheel got some hit during the changhing project...

So, I desided to do it once more

Hi!

Now the pagage is back under the hood and works find I got it done yesterday after a couple months project time...

Only problem left is ABS. There was some errors every now and then, before this big transmission change (sometimes ABS light stayed on). Now the light shakes a little bit when it should turn off but then stay on.

Any ideas?

Sounds as though you have a wheel sensor that is not working, you can check them from the plug on the ABS ECU, if you have a Haynes manual I think it tells you what pins they are connected to, all should read about 200 ohms to earth.

The problem is very often due to bad connections on the plugs, the front ones are quite easy to get at the rear less so.

Well done on all that engineering, when I changed the clutch thrust bearing on one of mine it took a week!

Hi Tero,

Excellent work. I hope you get your ABS problem sorted out. As Peter said it's simple enough to measure the resistances from the ABS ECU plug. Have you checked the connections in the front wheel arches?

Steve.
