Tyre been loosing pressure like for ever, had a new tyre and valve core but still loosing about 6 psi (computer warns me) every 4 weeks.

Are there seals on the sensors that can be replaced or do I need a new sensor?

Oh forgot to ask if you fit a new sensor do you need to do anything special or does the car just see it and works?

I not sure about the seals but you do need a Lexia to program the car to the sensor

Hi
My C5 has refused to lift the front, the rear suspension raises fine. The pump is running but it burned the maxi fuse after I kept the pump running for a while- replaced the fuse and it runs again.
I have cleaned the front suspension circuit with compressed air to make sure the aren't blockages that could prevent front raising.

The capacitor will be 0.22µF because 22 is electrolytic size.
Don’t think that it can reduce the power of a DC motor; it looks like an interference suppressor.

It's unlikely to be a sensor. 99.9% of all EPIC pump faults are down to air leaks. They are VERY sensitive to air. Check very carefully the leakoff pipes and especially the end blanking plug on the last injector.

I generally add 10% 'diesel' to my used oil, it improves the mpg...
